337 - Do You Really Need a Consent Form?

1
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,040
Good morning, podcasting,
Morning chat.

2025, and today we're tackling A

3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,160
mailbag question about
accidentally leaving guest

4
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,080
disclaimers in videos and
whether or not to fix them.

5
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,880

Good morning again podcasting

16
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,240
Morning chap, thanks so much for
being here.

17
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,680
I am your host Mark Ronick and
on stage with me currently we

18
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,800
have my Co hosts Dr. Fay,
producer Ashley Feller, Amanda

19
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,680
Sharp and Nick Nallback.
I'm hoping Sid Meadows is

20
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,560
joining us today.
I don't think his Europe trip

21
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:51,800
up.
Yep, there he is.

22
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,000
Before we kick off, just wanted
to say last night, those of you

23
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,280
who know me what relatively well
know I love my movies, my

24
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,080
superhero movies, my Star Wars
movies.

25
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:07,160
I went last night to go see the
new Superman movie and I will

26
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:12,080
say that I'm no spoilers and I
will say that it's a fun movie.

27
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,160
I enjoyed it.
I had a fun time and was a

28
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:20,160
little disappointed.
It's just doing what these comic

29
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,720
book movies are doing a lot more
of lately and just trying to do

30
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,560
too much.
I think the superhero movies

31
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:31,720
that the ones that have become
really staples icons, the ones

32
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:36,000
that really were popular are
those ones that it's just the

33
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,800
superhero in the movie mainly,
right?

34
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,520
It's just that person who's, you
know, not only struggling to

35
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:47,760
beat the bad guy, but also has,
you know, human like challenges

36
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,480
along the way, right.
And and it's this movie.

37
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,520
He absolutely had a human like
challenge throughout the whole

38
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,680
movie, But it there wasn't a lot
of substance to it.

39
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,240
It just kind of there was this
overarching theme as far as what

40
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,640
Superman was dealing with
personally.

41
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:10,640
And it's just, I don't know it,
it was a little too corny for

42
00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:12,960
me, I guess.
So I'm a little bummed about it

43
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,160
because I was really hoping this
would kind of set the superhero

44
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,760
movie genre back on track.
And I don't really personally

45
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,440
feel that way again.
I would, I love these movies and

46
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,640
I would see it again.
It's fun.

47
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,360
It just didn't really pack the
punch that I was hoping for.

48
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:31,400
So there.
You know what?

49
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:36,000
The fact that you do love these
movies put so much more emphasis

50
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,400
and importance on your.
You know what I mean?

51
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,920
Yes, 'cause I am a little, I
tend to be a little more

52
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,160
forgiving with these movies
because I, I just love them so

53
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,960
much.
I just have such a good time.

54
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,360
Takes me back to being a kid.
So yeah, that's true.

55
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,600
But you know, if you're excited
to go see it, go see it.

56
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,640
I'm sure you'll have a fun time.
Just my I don't go in with this

57
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:07,880
high of expectations as I had.
All right, so today we want to

58
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:12,960
dig into a couple of things.
So first Dr. found something on

59
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,240
Reddit that we thought we'd
throw out at you and hear what

60
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,160
you have to say.
Then I want to go to a mailbag

61
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:24,040
question that I found in our own
Facebook group that came last

62
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:29,040
night by Chris.
Not any Chris here, but a

63
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,720
gentleman named Chris who is a
regular over there.

64
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:37,880
So we'll get to that too.
So first let me go to Dr. And

65
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,760
then, of course, we'll get to
the main question of the morning

66
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,600
that was inspired by something
earlier this week from Sid.

67
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:49,240
Go for it, Dr. OK, so this
question comes from Reddit and

68
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:55,640
it is from Mountain Mix 3618.
And he or she, I don't want to

69
00:04:55,640 --> 00:05:00,640
make any assumptions, asks if
Apple Podcasts disappeared

70
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:05,440
tomorrow, what would you do?
So this should be like a rapid

71
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:10,640
fire kind of kind of answers.
Now I will go on to say he or

72
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,800
she says just a hypothetical,
but it made me think if Apple

73
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,000
shut down podcast tomorrow,
where would you shift your

74
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,320
strategy?
Spotify, YouTube, private feeds?

75
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,480
Just trying to get a read on
where podcasters think the

76
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,280
future lives.
So would anyone like to take a

77
00:05:29,280 --> 00:05:31,120
stab?
All right, Amanda's going to go

78
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:32,080
first.
Go ahead, Amanda.

79
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,960
Good morning.
I would throw every one of those

80
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,720
options out the window and just
focus and go 100% all on social

81
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,800
media.
And put the long talk.

82
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,160
Like everything on there, every
single piece of content.

83
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,320
I would have sworn you would
have just gone straight to

84
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,560
YouTube.
Well, that's I would consider

85
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,400
that part of like social media I
guess.

86
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,160
Yeah, Isn't that funny that
like, I I often think about

87
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:59,120
that, that YouTube gets lumped
into social media, but Apple and

88
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,360
Spotify don't.
But they're really the same kind

89
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,080
of platform, just, you know, in
a little bit of a different way.

90
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,280
Well, I think with YouTube, you
can leave the comments, you can

91
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:08,680
like it.
There's a little bit more.

92
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,320
Up until recently, that was the
major difference between, say,

93
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,240
Spotify or Apple.
I know there's more engagement

94
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:19,680
options now, but yeah I would
just go social media because if

95
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,720
one of them go away you still
have the others.

96
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,560
OK, that's fair.
And anyone else?

97
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,600
Anyone else have any thoughts on
this?

98
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,440
Dr. What about you?
Well, I didn't quite know.

99
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:36,160
I would have thought Spotify,
but then I went on to read some

100
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:41,920
of the answers in Reddit and of
course the best answer of all,

101
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,360
it made me change my mind.
It's from Danny Brown from

102
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:51,680
Captivate, and he says always
your own website, that's where

103
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,960
it should be.
That's a great point.

104
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,480
Yeah.
That's a great, great point.

105
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:57,640
Yeah.
I mean.

106
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,400
My new answer.
Thank you, Danny Brown.

107
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,800
But the question really is
though, yes, I think as far as

108
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,920
strategically, yeah, go more in
on your website at that point.

109
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,600
But at the same time, I think
it's harder for people to find

110
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,000
your website then maybe find you
on social media.

111
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,320
I don't know.
I mean, it depends on your SEO

112
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,640
strategy of course.
Yeah, I would guess that you'd

113
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,480
really have to up your
promotional, yeah, aspect of

114
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,720
your show and of your website.
Yeah, we encourage your website

115
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,560
because that's your home base.
You have that control, the most

116
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,880
control over that, especially
over social media.

117
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,280
So we want, you know, we want
you to focus on that too.

118
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,720
And I think social media is a
promotional strategy that you

119
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,120
can't really ignore either.
Dan is on stage.

120
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,760
Let's check in with Dan.
Good morning to you, Sir.

121
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,200
Do you want to weigh in on this?
I wouldn't do much at all

122
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,200
because I'm fortunate to use,
well Buzz Sprout, and they make

123
00:07:54,200 --> 00:08:00,720
it really easy to default to
other podcast player entities.

124
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:06,520
So if Apple Podcasts went away,
people would likely migrate to

125
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,640
another player or to YouTube as
was already mentioned.

126
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,120
And I don't know that I'd see
much more difference now.

127
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:16,120
I will add though, that recently
I've seen a spike in downloads

128
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:21,240
that has been a result of
joining the odd match network.

129
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:22,920
Oh, that's cool.
Yeah.

130
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,040
So that has been a huge player
in and it's really competitive

131
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,880
with the downloads on Apple.
So that's been really good.

132
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,640
No wait a second, I'm kind of
confused.

133
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:36,840
Why is that?
Isn't pod match supposed to be

134
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:42,120
like you get you get guests and
you also put yourself out as a

135
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:43,440
guest?
Yeah, it's a matchmaker.

136
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:44,800
It's a matchmaking.
Yeah.

137
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,520
So they also have a network,
right?

138
00:08:47,680 --> 00:08:51,800
So recently Alex, a couple
months ago announced a network,

139
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,880
a pod match network that you can
be a part of it, especially I

140
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,160
think if you are a pod match
user, then you can be part of

141
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,080
the network.
Actually, one of the first

142
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,840
shows, the podcasting morning
chat was one of the first shows

143
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,600
to be on that network and we're
still there today.

144
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,240
And then more recently, Alex
announced that he had figured

145
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:18,400
out a way to get us more real
listeners to our podcasts and

146
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,320
for specifically for his podcast
network.

147
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:26,120
And yeah, a lot of people are
starting to report that they're

148
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,040
seeing a difference.
It's hard for me to say if we're

149
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,880
if we're seeing a difference,
especially just because our

150
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,960
numbers have been skewed.
Skewed is kind of the wrong

151
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,320
word, but I can't think of a
better one.

152
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,200
So you've been skewed ever since
we did the Steve from Blue's

153
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,240
Clues episode.
So that's really where I've seen

154
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,680
a big bump for us.
And now it's hard to say where

155
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:51,240
or if pod match is contributing
to those numbers lately.

156
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,360
So we'll that we'll wait and see
on that.

157
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,680
But that's very cool to hear
from Dan that that that's

158
00:09:55,680 --> 00:09:59,680
working well for him as far as
pod match in the network goes.

159
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,800
And I think Dan's right too, in
the sense that I think for many

160
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,920
of us, we might hear this
question that that Dr. found on

161
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,720
Reddit and say, well, nothing
really changes if we're on

162
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,800
already more than one platform.
But I do think then maybe your

163
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,880
strategy changes as that at that
point, especially because if

164
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,560
Apple Podcast goes away
tomorrow, that means there are a

165
00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:26,840
lot of podcast consumers out
there that need a new home.

166
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,280
And so you've got to direct them
to that new home.

167
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,920
It's your responsibility, your
strategy.

168
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,760
How are you going to get them to
go find you on that other

169
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,520
platform?
Because they're probably used to

170
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,960
just using, in this scenario,
just used to using Apple

171
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,160
Podcasts.
So now you want to direct them

172
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,720
to their new home.
I saw Sid wanted to add

173
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:48,960
something.
And good morning, Sid.

174
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,560
Earlier when you just popped in
the room, I was going to ask

175
00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:54,680
you, aren't you going away soon
with your wife for a little

176
00:10:54,680 --> 00:10:57,280
vacation?
Yes, we are going away soon.

177
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,200
It's next Thursday night we
leave, headed to Europe.

178
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,040
We'll be gone for 12 days.
Nice.

179
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,040
Yeah, 12 days.
Yeah, we're looking forward to

180
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,160
it because she's already
stressing out about how to pack

181
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,920
and what to pack, the two outfit
today and all that kind of

182
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:13,600
stuff.
But yeah, we leave.

183
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,640
We leave in a week.
This time next week we'll be in

184
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,920
Barcelona, Spain.
That's cool, and you know, you

185
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,360
talk about her stressing about
packing, but I feel like packing

186
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,640
is a thing for you too.
Maybe that's just because of

187
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,840
your videos.
I don't stress about it.

188
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,400
I'm an organized Packer.
I wanted to add a couple of

189
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,560
things.
First off, with I'm not a member

190
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:35,840
of Pod Match.
I obviously follow Alex and know

191
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,240
what he's doing.
But I think the thing that's

192
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,520
important about what Dan just
talked about is first and

193
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,960
foremost, Pod Match is a
community, yes.

194
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,600
And it sounds like Dan has been
rewarded by that community for

195
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:54,760
joining that community by people
engaging in and listening to his

196
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,360
podcast, which is fantastic.
That's one of the benefits of

197
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,440
joining a community.
So I think first and foremost,

198
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,320
you have to remember it's a
community.

199
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,760
Network is second, finding guest
is second, right?

200
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,400
It's our third or whatever, but
it's really a community first.

201
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,800
And then to the listening
platform.

202
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,840
I mean, I think because I'm an
audio guy, I would probably go

203
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:18,000
to Spotify to start listening to
my shows that I have in my feed

204
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,680
to listen to every week, my
regular list that I'm, you know,

205
00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:24,360
consuming.
But as it relates to my show

206
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,400
specifically, I would do exactly
what Dan also said, which is

207
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,640
lean more heavily into my
website.

208
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,040
Because right now when I look at
my analytics spot and see the

209
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:40,240
Apple is my first top download.
My website is my second top

210
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,720
downloads.
There are a lot of people go to

211
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,920
my website and listen to the
embedded player on my website

212
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,160
already.
So I would lean in heavily in

213
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,920
the marketing of going directly
to the landing page for each

214
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,160
episode.
All right, there's there you go.

215
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,440
Another vote for website.
Love that.

216
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,960
I see Nick is agreeing with you
there as well.

217
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,000
What about you, Nick?
I'm curious, where would you go

218
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,680
if Apple went away?
What would be the strategy?

219
00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:05,560
Where would you direct your
audience?

220
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,720
My strategy has always been
sending people back to my

221
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,000
website.
That's been always the goal.

222
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,320
Like if they listen on Apple,
Spotify, go for it.

223
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:15,600
Like wherever you're going to
listen to you.

224
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,120
But every time I came out with
an episode, my goal was to get

225
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,680
them back onto my website.
So that strategy for me wouldn't

226
00:13:22,680 --> 00:13:25,800
change at all.
If you think about it, if Apple

227
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:31,480
Podcasts went away today, it
wouldn't necessarily be on you

228
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,040
to find a new platform for them
to listen to.

229
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,280
As long as you are using your
podcast host, you're getting

230
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,280
your podcast on all of the
available directories that are

231
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,720
available to you.
They're most likely going to be

232
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,600
able to find you on any of those
platforms.

233
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:48,480
Yeah.
OK.

234
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,320
So it's up to them, the user to
basically decide what platform

235
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,800
do they want to use instead of
Apple podcast, right.

236
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,560
It's my yeah.
I do wonder, I do agree with you

237
00:13:57,560 --> 00:14:02,400
and I wonder, you know, if we as
hosts, if we're asking our

238
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,520
audience to listen in a specific
place, wherever that is, your

239
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,320
website, YouTube, etcetera.
If we keep encouraging that, I

240
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,720
wonder if I wonder what
percentage would actually go

241
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,440
that way and would listen, you
know, despite maybe the player

242
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,280
that they prefer.
I wonder if we can sway the

243
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,400
audience to go use the player of
our choice and how we would do

244
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:23,880
that.
I think maybe that's another

245
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,560
conversation because we've got a
full plate today.

246
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,800
So let me keep things moving if
you don't mind.

247
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,760
Next, I want to jump into the
mailbag.

248
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,080
This is a question that comes
from Chris, Chris B.

249
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,360
Well, you know what?
He publicly posted it so I can

250
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:44,640
say his last name, Chris Baker,
and he posted it in our Facebook

251
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,360
group Empowered Podcasting.
If you want to go find that on

252
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:48,920
Facebook.
Chris asks.

253
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,640
I include a disclaimer at the
beginning of recordings for

254
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,920
guest consent, but I forgot to
cut it out.

255
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,320
Actually, and this is an
abbreviated version here, I

256
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,120
summarized it.
I thought I would go that

257
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:03,880
direction, but I actually want
to read the whole thing to you.

258
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,680
So he says he asks his guests
during the beginning of the

259
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,920
recording.
So he hits record and he asks

260
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,040
them.
He says do I have your

261
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,760
permission to record, upload and
use this in perpetuity?

262
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,680
I wait for a yes and then
officially start the show.

263
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,520
And then he goes on here to say
I forgot to cut the disclaimer

264
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,960
on two different shows recently.
I can easily fix this on audio

265
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,560
sites by cutting this section
and then uploading it again.

266
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,080
Then he says it doesn't work
this way on YouTube, run rumble

267
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,680
and some other platforms.
He says all I can do is delete

268
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,320
everything and then re upload
everything.

269
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,720
I would lose all the views and
comments plus the video would

270
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:52,000
now be out of order.
Although he could do something

271
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,640
with a playlist if he wanted to
to correct the order and we can

272
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,800
get into that too.
And lastly he says I'm trying to

273
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,240
figure out how I missed these
two videos.

274
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:05,040
I'm also wondering if I should
just leave them up there as is.

275
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:11,920
Will anyone care?
To their credit, Odyssey ODYS EE

276
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,640
does make it possible to replace
the video file without deleting

277
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,520
the video entirely.
And I am not familiar with

278
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,440
Odyssey or how that works, but
that's an interesting,

279
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,280
interesting suggestion from
Chris and what he's going to do.

280
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:26,720
But I'm.
Yeah, I don't know those

281
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,480
details.
So let's pick this apart because

282
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,840
it's kind of multifaceted.
And I think it's important that

283
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,640
we dig into everything.
So there's so many different

284
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,240
directions. 1st, it's like, and
I know probably no one here can

285
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,640
answer this unless you've talked
to a lawyer before, but does

286
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,880
that suffice?
Asking for verbal consent as

287
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,600
opposed to written consent?
And he didn't explain if he in

288
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,280
fact also has them sign
something for their consent.

289
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,640
But let's assume in this
instance that that's how he does

290
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,440
it.
If anybody has heard, if that's

291
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,560
enough, let me know.
My guess is it's probably not,

292
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,599
but let me check in.
Dr. wants to add something.

293
00:17:05,599 --> 00:17:09,920
Go ahead, Dr. I do think it is
enough, just the way that he

294
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,240
framed it, blah blah blah blah
in perpetuity.

295
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:16,119
Is this good for you?
Yes or no?

296
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,520
And then they say yes I do.
I think it's good enough.

297
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,440
I wonder if it could hold up in
court.

298
00:17:21,839 --> 00:17:24,640
I think it could.
I mean, I didn't know.

299
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,880
I can't imagine why it wouldn't.
There's only one time that I had

300
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:33,120
to use this like in instead of
because I usually do a contract

301
00:17:33,120 --> 00:17:36,640
for speakers.
And the only time that I had,

302
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,200
there was a speaker that was
leery about signing a contract.

303
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:45,600
She was very, very kind of
homespun and the contract thing

304
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,360
scared her.
Oh my God, this is like really

305
00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:52,640
serious, not serious, but you
know, And so before the

306
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,680
interview, I said, look, I said
I like to use these as a

307
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:01,440
training thing for, you know, my
fellow new producers coming on

308
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,000
the scene.
And so would that be OK with you

309
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,280
in perpetuity?
And she said, oh, yeah, that's

310
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,440
fine.
And I said great.

311
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,520
And then we continued on with
the interview that.

312
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:13,440
Makes sense.
Oh, who is that?

313
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,640
Alex?
I just, I just kind of googled

314
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,640
it and they said, you know, both
verbal and written consent are

315
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,520
considered legal.
OK.

316
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,960
It's just harder to prove.
Yeah, it is consent.

317
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,680
And Mike Short is in the chat
agreeing with you as well.

318
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,440
He says it's a record of a
verbal contract.

319
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,440
Verbal contracts are binding.
So there you go.

320
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,880
Amanda, you wanted to chime in?
Go ahead.

321
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,360
Well, I would have always
assumed that you a verbal

322
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,120
recorded, yes, would have been
enough.

323
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:46,400
But if all the conversations
that I have with say companies

324
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,600
when I'm on the phone, they'll
say, is it OK if this recording

325
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,760
was being recorded?
And so I feel like if companies

326
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,480
are doing that, companies that
have some serious lawyers behind

327
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,000
them, if that seems to be
enough, I think just on a

328
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:03,640
surface level we should be fine.
Totally agree with you there.

329
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,720
That's an excellent point.
And nobody has though mentioned

330
00:19:08,360 --> 00:19:12,120
what about the fact that AI can
pretty much clone our voices at

331
00:19:12,120 --> 00:19:14,720
this point.
I have a feeling maybe verbal

332
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,320
consent could change over time.
I it it's not going anywhere at

333
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,480
this moment.
But, you know, to get an on the

334
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:26,440
phone or over the Internet.
Verbal consent these days is

335
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,360
getting a little more muddy
because of AI.

336
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,240
Yeah, go ahead, Amanda.
So was forgery, right?

337
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,160
So that will just become like
verbal forgery, I think.

338
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,240
So it won't necessarily I think
not change.

339
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,280
I just think there's going to
become laws that are are going

340
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,160
to echo what, you know, just
general forgery would be.

341
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:47,720
So I don't think we ever can
control it.

342
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,520
They'll just have to be laws
evolving to protect consumers.

343
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,800
OK, Yeah, I think that's a good
point.

344
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,640
Forgery.
Yeah, they would just handle it

345
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,280
like forgery.
Go ahead, Sid I.

346
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,680
Just have a question about this
because isn't the fact that.

347
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,360
You're actually on the show
being recorded the actual

348
00:20:05,360 --> 00:20:09,200
consent itself, without being
recording a consent or signing a

349
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,080
document.
The fact that you're on the show

350
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,960
being recorded in itself is
consent, is it not?

351
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:19,040
It it is, I suppose.
Again, we are not lawyers, FYI,

352
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:25,800
and I suppose it is.
However, you know, the whole I

353
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,320
said it right the first time,
but the point is, is that people

354
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,560
use the content that's recorded
in a lot of different ways,

355
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,520
right?
They're not just putting up the

356
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:40,400
the content as recorded.
A lot of times, most, many of us

357
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,680
are editing things and some, and
maybe a bad edit or an

358
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,480
intentional edit might take
something out of context or

359
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,080
might be sound like it was
manipulated into something that

360
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,240
the person wasn't trying to say.
Or again, back to the out of

361
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,080
context thing.
You isolate a certain portion of

362
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,440
what they say, put it out there,
and what if that it starts to

363
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:05,240
damage the guest's reputation?
Then they may come after you at

364
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,680
that point.
So it's maybe more about when

365
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,680
you're asking for consent.
It's also about the way in which

366
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,840
you're using the content.
You're asking for permission to

367
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,840
use it however the heck you
want.

368
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,400
So can we do so in former poll?
Then you can move on.

369
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,240
I'm just curious.
Like raise of hands or thumbs

370
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,200
up.
How many of you actually use a

371
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:30,880
consent form, either verbal or
written, for your show, for your

372
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:32,960
guest?
I'm just curious in this ring.

373
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,240
I do.
I'll say that just to fill the

374
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,520
silence while everybody's giving
their emojis.

375
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,040
I definitely do when I've had
guests on, you know, when I do

376
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,720
those one-on-one guest
interviews, I definitely do.

377
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,000
It looked like most people said
that they do here in the room.

378
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,280
There were a couple that said
no.

379
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,720
Anyone on stage.
If you said no will you come off

380
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,560
mic for a second because I
forgot who did?

381
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:56,760
Amanda said no.
Or Alex, go ahead.

382
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,160
Yes, I don't have a consent.
OK.

383
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:00,840
I don't have a consent.
You don't worry about it.

384
00:22:01,360 --> 00:22:05,080
No, I don't, OK.
Because at the end of the day,

385
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:09,480
people are saying yes to the
podcast.

386
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:14,480
And if they've got kind of like
what Sid is talking about, like

387
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,440
if they're there and they're
recording and we can talk about

388
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,840
the, I've talked about this
situation before.

389
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,720
Guests have asked me to take
stuff out.

390
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,520
And within reason, you take it
out and, you know, you try to do

391
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,120
the right thing.
And I think doing the right

392
00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:33,160
thing is never the wrong thing.
Dave in the audience and in the

393
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,560
chat says that he's never asked
for consent.

394
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,920
And I know Dave does multiple
podcasts.

395
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,440
He doesn't do just one.
I Dave, I forgot what I saw you

396
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,440
say recently was like 6 or 8
different podcasts, something

397
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,360
like that.
And he doesn't ask for consent.

398
00:22:47,360 --> 00:22:49,640
So there you go.
And Sid said the same thing, 09

399
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,360
different podcasts Dave does.
Dave very impressive.

400
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:58,160
I don't know that I could keep
my sanity if I was doing 9

401
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,800
different podcasts, you know,
like at all Active.

402
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,520
And Dave, one of these days we
come up on stage.

403
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,400
We got to get you up here on
stage and get to know you a

404
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,680
little bit better as a
community.

405
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:13,400
And he's now showing us the
cuckoo sign, I guess, for

406
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,480
himself.
Jeff, good morning.

407
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,120
Thank you for joining us on the
stage.

408
00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:20,200
What did you want to add about
this whole area of consent,

409
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,880
verbal, written, etcetera?
I just want to say Dave is

410
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,480
awesome.
And anyway, but nine podcasts is

411
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,280
impressive.
I don't ask.

412
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,240
I never have.
I'm of the mindset that when I'm

413
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,520
reaching out to a publicist or
direct to this person, here's

414
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,880
the zoom, you know, I'm video,
we're going to video it.

415
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,720
And then we get on and we're
looking at each other and we

416
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:46,600
spend an hour together.
Like to me, that's that because

417
00:23:47,360 --> 00:23:49,880
what are we getting it for?
Because what you said earlier

418
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,760
about the manipulation of
something, even if I had

419
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,920
consent, they're not consenting
for you to manipulate it.

420
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,960
Make me look bad.
You're still going to get sued.

421
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,760
So you know, the thing about
protecting yourself and getting

422
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,080
sued is even if you pay for
trademarks, do all these things,

423
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,160
if you have to defend it or do
it, it's going to cost you

424
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,880
thousands of dollars regardless.
So whether you have the consent

425
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,280
or not doesn't prevent you from
being sued and losing.

426
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,320
That's true.
Tons of money in the process.

427
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:24,680
I don't think anyone here is
doing anything egregious or that

428
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,320
we are running these crazy
gotcha interviews and stuff like

429
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:29,840
that.
So I don't, you know, I don't,

430
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,280
you know, to me it's we're all
in the safe zone.

431
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,840
But, and again, not a lawyer,
but you know what I mean.

432
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,640
Yeah, I do.
And I'm surprised.

433
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,840
I thought for sure Jeff's answer
was going to be that he does

434
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,640
have people sign something
because Jeff's interviewing a

435
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,400
lot of actors and, and what,
what do we call them?

436
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,480
Jeff B List Celebrities.
I call them.

437
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,640
I say they were really famous
when they were famous.

438
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,160
Yeah.
Right, right.

439
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:58,680
Yeah.
But a lot of times they're

440
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,520
asking me to be on the show too,
right.

441
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,000
So you know it, you know, if you
have guests reaching out to you,

442
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,840
you know, to me, that's like
it's not consents, but it's

443
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,240
like, you know, if you were to
create a paper trail of hey,

444
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:16,240
judge, here's here's all this
game to be, you know, it's like

445
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,960
it seems like the reasonable
thing would be like everyone

446
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,480
here knew what they were getting
into.

447
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,480
Everyone.
You know, Sir, did you know what

448
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:24,600
a podcast was?
Yes.

449
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,400
And you agreed to be on Mark's
show?

450
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:27,720
Yes.
Then then what?

451
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,640
Why are we here, you know?
Right.

452
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:34,360
Yeah, and here I was saying, you
know, with celebrities, like, I

453
00:25:34,360 --> 00:25:36,720
was surprised that you didn't
have them sign anything.

454
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,320
Then I'm looking in the chat and
Dave has gone on to share that

455
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,200
he's had AUS federal judge on
his podcast and didn't ask for

456
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,400
consent.
And then he went on to say I run

457
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,960
with scissors.
So Yep, there you go.

458
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,360
So a lot of us just don't really
care.

459
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:56,680
I'm sure Gordon Firemark is his
ears are ringing right now and

460
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,280
I'm sure he hates this
conversation because I know he

461
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:04,400
would probably want us all to do
the consent form thing, but OK.

462
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:08,120
And then there there's another
facet of this question here,

463
00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:10,920
right?
So he can't remove Chris Baker,

464
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,320
can't remove the YouTube video
without losing all of the data,

465
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,920
all the comments that comes
through on the existing video

466
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,440
that has the question at the
very beginning asking for

467
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,640
consent.
So should he care?

468
00:26:26,120 --> 00:26:31,720
Should he just move on or take
it down and just lose those

469
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,840
numbers?
Let's go to Billy first as as

470
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,600
our guest on stage.
Yes, Billy, go ahead.

471
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:38,520
Repay.
That.

472
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,960
I'm pretty sure YouTube has an
editor within its own software

473
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,360
that you can pull that right out
because he can go in and clip

474
00:26:46,360 --> 00:26:49,000
out old ads and stuff and
replace them so.

475
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,800
That's a great point.
And that's so funny because

476
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,080
that's like the one thing
thinking when I was thinking

477
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,480
ahead about this, it's the one
thing that never even went

478
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,440
through my mind.
And I know that it has its own

479
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,200
editor.
You think that that would

480
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,960
probably solve the whole thing?
Yeah.

481
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,960
Yeah, I know people will pull
ads out and replace them, so

482
00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:07,000
it'll definitely.
Work.

483
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,640
Yeah.
And that editor kind of sucks.

484
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,440
I think they've improved it
recently.

485
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,520
I think I read something and I
haven't looked at it yet, but I

486
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,760
can't stand their editor.
It's not easy to find those

487
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,400
precise cuts.
It's a little sloppy.

488
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,040
Go ahead, Ashley.
Well, I guess now knowing that

489
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:25,320
the.
Editor is there.

490
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,400
If you can, if you can make a
clean cut, do that.

491
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:32,320
But I would also, you know, if
perhaps you just uploaded it and

492
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,320
you don't have that much
engagement or that many views,

493
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,200
how long does it take really to
just put it up again?

494
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,840
Not that long.
I would maybe consider doing

495
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,320
that.
And if you do have engagement, I

496
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:44,880
don't think it's that big of a
deal.

497
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:49,320
I think if anything it shows
that you're conscious of, you

498
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,600
know, so legal factors on your
podcast, I wouldn't worry about.

499
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:54,480
It.
OK, there you go.

500
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,040
And I think next in line, let's
go to Amanda.

501
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,200
And we're going to wrap this up
soon because we've got some more

502
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:01,680
stuff to get to.
So go ahead, Amanda.

503
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,000
I agree with Ashley.
I think if somebody heard that,

504
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,560
nobody would think anything of
it.

505
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,560
It's a recorded conversation and
and that makes sense.

506
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:14,400
But also to her point, if it can
be edited, clean it up and it

507
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,960
just kind of depends how many I
think interactions you've

508
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,840
already had.
But what he did put in that post

509
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:24,560
was it would make things out of
order and I can respect that if

510
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,520
he was wanting it to be in a
certain order of progression.

511
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:32,800
So I would say keep it 100% if
it if it causes use to have to

512
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,680
do a up like upload.
It wasn't like he started it.

513
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:40,560
Like, I'm so sad you're here.
I need you to agree to this.

514
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,360
All right, let's move on.
Like, as long as there's no, you

515
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:48,240
know, tone to the recording
conversation that would make

516
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:52,120
either one look bad or
inappropriate, I think it's

517
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,560
totally fine.
Yeah, good point.

518
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,920
And that was, I'm glad you
brought that up too, because I

519
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,040
was talking about earlier when I
first brought up the question.

520
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,960
You could do a playlist on
YouTube as an example.

521
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,200
So you could have your video
playlist of all your podcast

522
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,040
episodes and that can be
manipulated.

523
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,800
You can sort that accordingly
for public display.

524
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,920
So that's another option.
And if you are leaving the guest

525
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,680
consent disclaimer in there,
another thing you could do is

526
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:24,360
just address it as it is, right?
So we add chapter markers a lot

527
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:29,280
of times in over on YouTube,
right, to identify intro,

528
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,800
identify the different questions
or answers being shared.

529
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:39,880
Just start a 000 guest con
content disclaimer or guest

530
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:43,240
consent disclaimer, right?
Just put it in there.

531
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,640
And I think that almost I don't
know there.

532
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:49,600
It adds almost another facet to
it, right?

533
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,040
It just, it almost looks
intentional and I don't think

534
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,720
to, I think everybody's point, I
don't think the audience really

535
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:57,720
cares.
And now they can skip it if you

536
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,680
do it in chapter form.
And if they want to just skip

537
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,800
right past it and go to to the
intro, they'll just tap on the

538
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,160
next time stamp and go right to
it.

539
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,920
That's another way to do it.
So let's say we take Billy's

540
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:15,240
advice and use the YouTube
editor and let's say you have my

541
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,160
experience with the YouTube
editor and it's just not working

542
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,960
well for you.
Then leave it in and don't lose

543
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,880
all the analytics, don't lose
all the comments and just put it

544
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,080
in as a time stamp.
Just acknowledge it.

545
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,800
Chris Baker, I hope we've
answered your question.

546
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:31,120
I know I don't.
Forget Nick.

547
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:32,720
Don't forget Nick.
There you go.

548
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,480
All right Nick, you have the
final word.

549
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,040
Any anything additional you want
to add to this?

550
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:38,560
I was going to see what Billy
said.

551
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,280
You can edit it on YouTube.
If for whatever reason editing

552
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:45,080
doesn't work or maybe you don't
have access to the editor, you

553
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,720
could always mark the video as
unlisted and re upload a new

554
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,760
version of it.
That way you don't lose any of

555
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,560
the analytics that your video
has caught up to that point.

556
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,160
The only way someone would see
that video is if they had a

557
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,240
direct link to it.
And then your new video would

558
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,840
kind of take precedence over the
one that was there.

559
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,520
But not you.
You're not speaking about

560
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,720
YouTube specifically, are you?
Yeah.

561
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,920
Yeah, YouTube specifically
because you could mark the.

562
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,800
You can't replace a file,
though.

563
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,880
No, no, no, not replace it.
You just mark the video that

564
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,560
exists on there as unlisted.
That makes total sense.

565
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:19,720
OK, so there you go.
There's.

566
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,280
I have a quick question.
Sure, yes or no kind of

567
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:23,400
question.
Sure.

568
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,320
Does the order in which you
upload them actually really

569
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,280
matter?
The sequence of them?

570
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,360
Is that really a thing?
Good question.

571
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,160
I'm going to let Amanda take it
because I think my internet's

572
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:35,600
getting screwy and I'm going to
fix it.

573
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,960
Go ahead, Amanda.
I think for a lot of people

574
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,720
know, but there are sometimes
that maybe there are podcast

575
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,960
reference podcast episodes
referenced that if you're taking

576
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,400
somebody to another place and
you've already pre mentioned an

577
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,760
episode number, like go back to
episode 21 if you want to catch

578
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,080
this interview.
So I do think there are times

579
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:57,840
that there's a progression of
how they should have appeared or

580
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,320
you've referenced a number.
So I feel like yes and no, you

581
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:02,040
know what I mean?
Said.

582
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,200
Yeah, And I think that also
they, you know, another thing to

583
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,840
think about is there are a lot
of podcasters out there that are

584
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,680
strategically organizing their
episode order, right?

585
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,440
Like, like there's a reason for
it.

586
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:21,800
It's almost like chapters to a
book and they want you to go in

587
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,520
sequence.
I'm not saying this is every

588
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,680
podcast.
A lot of us, it probably doesn't

589
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,440
matter, right?
Like what last week's interview

590
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,800
or last week's episode was about
has nothing to do with this

591
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,280
week.
So it doesn't matter if they go

592
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,320
out of order.
But there are plenty of podcasts

593
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,440
that have a specific order for a
specific reason.

594
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,360
So I know you're trying to move
on from this topic, but one

595
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,880
thing that because this was kind
of stressing me out when I

596
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,440
started doing the AI briefing
because it was a daily podcast

597
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:55,360
and it would clutter up my the
channel feed and it would

598
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,960
basically drown out all the
other videos that I created.

599
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,120
But what YouTube actually does
is allows you to customize your

600
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:05,760
profile and if you use playlist
and things like that, you can

601
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,720
basically say, I want this
playlist to show up first.

602
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,120
So I had one playlist for all of
my like how to explain her

603
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,520
videos and I had another
playlist that showed up

604
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,120
underneath that with all of the
AI briefing episodes.

605
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,720
That way when anyone landed on
my channel, they were seeing

606
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,760
what I wanted them to see and
not necessarily what was the

607
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,680
most recent upload, right?
You can still see that in

608
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,400
chronological order, but I don't
think it's as important if

609
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,520
you're taking advantage of those
customization features on the

610
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:37,200
actual channel page itself.
You can't control that.

611
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,440
Right, Right.
OK, that makes sense.

612
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,960
And yeah, I just recently was
finally playing a little bit

613
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:49,360
more with my YouTube page and
fixing that landing page so that

614
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,520
people are seeing what they're
supposed to see and they're not

615
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,320
seeing videos that I posted like
15 years ago of my brother and

616
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,960
his band playing in New York
City, right?

617
00:33:59,960 --> 00:34:03,680
I get great video.
I'm very proud of my brother and

618
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,880
totally irrelevant now to the
content that I'm putting out

619
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,520
there.
So I've since hidden that video

620
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:13,040
also, but also organized my page
in such a way that makes more

621
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,159
sense to what I talked about now
these days.

622
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,400
Good point, Nick, thank you for
sharing and thanks all to all of

623
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,600
you for sharing around this
topic for Chris.

624
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,040
I'm sure this is a lot of good
info.

625
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:30,560
And now I'd like to start
inviting everybody who's

626
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,360
listening live to come up on
stage and share with those of us

627
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,560
who are here.
And I said come up on stage and

628
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,320
I was trying to avoid that.
Come join us on stage.

629
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:44,360
And those of us who are already
here are going to share our wins

630
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,679
from this past week.
So this is your time to shine,

631
00:34:47,679 --> 00:34:53,320
your time to stop and recognize
the things that you are

632
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:58,040
accomplishing, big or small.
If it's a bad week and you get

633
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,400
out of bed every day this week
and face those days and that's

634
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,200
the only when you can conjure up
right now, go for it.

635
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,240
Let's hear it, let's talk about
it and let's celebrate.

636
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,280
And if you've got a big
podcasting win, that's the those

637
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:15,280
are the big ones I want to hear.
And it's OK if you have wins

638
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,080
from other areas to share with
us.

639
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:22,040
So let's dig in first.
I'm going to go to and and Nick

640
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,000
bounced right at wins from the
week.

641
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,560
He just disappeared from the
room and I know that he's

642
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:30,200
probably just getting to work
right now.

643
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,560
I'm going to share.
Nick's win is he had a great

644
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:36,840
family vacation this past week.
There's Nick's OK with that.

645
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,480
Dr. I'm coming to you first.
Please share.

646
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,920
Dang it.
Are you unprepared?

647
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:45,160
I have a backup one because I
was trying to think of a better

648
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:49,360
one, but the better one did not
has not come to mind.

649
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:50,760
Yet.
OK, well then I'm going to get a

650
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,600
backup.
One, hold on dear.

651
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,320
There's no such thing as the
backup win.

652
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,120
There's no such thing as a
better win.

653
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:59,600
A win is a win is a win.
Mark says this in the beginning.

654
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,240
Regardless of how small or how
big it is, it is a win.

655
00:36:03,240 --> 00:36:06,880
So welcome and you need to jump
in and share and let's

656
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:08,240
celebrate.
Thank you, Sid.

657
00:36:08,240 --> 00:36:11,240
Well, you might be eating those
words after you hear mine, so

658
00:36:11,240 --> 00:36:12,520
stop it.
My win.

659
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,240
My win is that I had a new
toilet and stuff.

660
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:19,920
I love it.
Oh.

661
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:22,600
My gosh.
Oh my God.

662
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,680
This is pause here and dive into
why she needed a new toilet and

663
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:31,960
who actually broke they.
Were drilling through the floor.

664
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,840
It was just so weird.
Oh my God.

665
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,800
Yeah.
Oh, and Dave gave me a little

666
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,680
toilet emoji.
Thank you so much.

667
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:41,840
Yes, yeah.
And Speaking of Dave, I'll share

668
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,680
Dave's win out loud since he
shared it in the chat.

669
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:50,920
Dave's win is he episode 600 was
recorded for his podcast Living

670
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,920
the Next Chapter.
And this is a podcast that's

671
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,480
three years old.
So congratulations Dave. 600 is

672
00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:01,080
a huge milestone.
So yeah, certainly worth

673
00:37:01,240 --> 00:37:04,360
celebrating.
Not a lot of us get to 600

674
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,040
episodes.
So kudos to you for doing that.

675
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,480
All right, we're going to keep
it moving and go to let's, let's

676
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,240
mix it up a little bit.
Let's go to Dan.

677
00:37:13,240 --> 00:37:16,280
Dan, good morning to you again.
Would you share any wins from

678
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,320
your week?
We had a wonderful July 4th

679
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,480
weekend.
So I am a board member here for

680
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:28,080
Cocoa Beach Main St. and we had
three extremely successful

681
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,400
events that took place this past
weekend.

682
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:37,080
I connected with the owners of
Caltech and a few other great

683
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,520
people, but pulled off a golf
tournament, a pickleball

684
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:44,720
tournament, and an exciting St.
party with a drone show that

685
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:48,080
everybody's been talking about
instead of fireworks for Cocoa

686
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:49,880
Beach.
So I'll take all of those as

687
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,440
wins.
That's awesome.

688
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:53,880
Congratulations and thanks for
coming up with those wins.

689
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,880
It's certainly worth
celebrating.

690
00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:00,800
And yeah, drones in the
fireworks or as the fireworks I

691
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,840
saw recently, has anyone else
seen it 'cause I know it's gone

692
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:05,880
viral.
There's a video of a guy who

693
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,880
sent off his drone into the
middle of a fireworks show.

694
00:38:10,240 --> 00:38:14,080
So it was literally up there
with the with the fireworks as

695
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,160
they were bursting.
So you get to see it in a whole

696
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,560
new perspective.
And it was really cool to see.

697
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,560
I'll see if I can find that.
And if I can, I'll put it in the

698
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,560
show notes if anybody's
interested in seeing that.

699
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,680
It's really impressive.
And I guess a little risky too

700
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,800
because if I guess if those
fireworks hit, hit the drone, it

701
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:32,520
probably wouldn't be a good
situation.

702
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,200
Thank you, Dan, appreciate your
share.

703
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:39,720
Let's check in with Billy.
Billy, good morning.

704
00:38:39,720 --> 00:38:42,440
I know you've got at least one
win because I think you shared

705
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,760
it publicly earlier this week.
Go for it.

706
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:52,080
So wins, wins, wins couple.
So one personal business win is

707
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:56,480
I uploaded my 4000 piece of
content on Amazon.

708
00:38:56,480 --> 00:39:00,520
So it's always fun.
So actually over over 4000, but

709
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,760
hit that mark.
And then I've been running a

710
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,520
little mastermind group for a
little over a year.

711
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,120
And so I had one of my
mastermind members come to a

712
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:16,040
meeting last week and they close
out a $9000 month last month.

713
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,120
Wow.
Using some of the strategies

714
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:21,720
that that have been shared.
So yeah, it was, it was good

715
00:39:21,720 --> 00:39:24,520
because, you know, the whole
thing with that group was like,

716
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,200
I'm just testing to see if
people can get the same or

717
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:31,000
similar results that I do and
they do.

718
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,360
So it's amazing.
So it was a big win for her and

719
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,520
a big win for me.
That's awesome.

720
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,240
And real quick, Billy, although
I know you're not currently

721
00:39:39,240 --> 00:39:43,440
taking any new mastermind
members, you want to share just

722
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,080
briefly, what is that
mastermind?

723
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,880
So basically it all it is, is
where I get together with

724
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,760
content creators who are part of
the Amazon Influence program and

725
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:56,760
just teach them how to leverage
these, these, you know, selling

726
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,760
programs or affiliate programs
or whatever to work directly

727
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:01,880
with brands and create multiple
streams of revenue.

728
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,240
And so that's what I've been
doing.

729
00:40:04,240 --> 00:40:07,080
And and yeah, so the mastermind
is going to be replaced by.

730
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,600
Like a three to.
Five day intensive or challenge

731
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,720
or whatever.
So I'm just seeing how how what

732
00:40:13,720 --> 00:40:16,640
the interest is in that.
But then I may reopen the

733
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:18,960
mastermind later on or or
something, I don't know.

734
00:40:19,240 --> 00:40:20,880
I'm in the brainstorming phase
of that.

735
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,320
So.
Well, congratulations and

736
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,640
congratulations to that member
of your mastermind, $9000 a

737
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:27,400
month and there's nothing to
sneeze at.

738
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,320
Very cool that you have been
able to help people accomplish

739
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,400
big things like that, Billy.
And we're going to put a link in

740
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:38,720
the show notes to Billy's short
form video that he put out all

741
00:40:38,720 --> 00:40:42,120
about that this very thing that
he's sharing with us.

742
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:48,000
So check that out to learn more.
Thank you, Billy, and let's go

743
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,880
to Ashley.
Ashley, please share some wins

744
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,680
from your week.
So these are shared wins with my

745
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,800
client Karen, who's the host of
My Happy Ass Life.

746
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:00,200
We are back in production.
We filmed 3 episodes this week.

747
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,760
We'll be launching the new
season in August.

748
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,520
And the other win is that we are
fully sponsored.

749
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:11,560
We have 6 sponsors for the
upcoming season. 1 is a clothing

750
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:15,960
brand, there's a hair stylist,
there's a pine straw company, a

751
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,600
tax strategist.
There's a nice variety of

752
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,080
sponsors.
And I just want to, you know,

753
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,560
share with folks that we didn't.
We don't have a big audience.

754
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,760
When you look at our numbers,
it's really nothing to be all

755
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,240
that impressed with, but these
folks just believe in the show

756
00:41:31,240 --> 00:41:33,720
and Karen, and they really want
to support her and that's our

757
00:41:33,720 --> 00:41:35,160
wins for the week.
Yeah.

758
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,120
And I'm going to take a guess
that another reason why the

759
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:41,520
sponsors are interested is
because big or small of an

760
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,240
audience, it's probably their
target audience.

761
00:41:44,240 --> 00:41:46,280
And that's valuable to them,
right?

762
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,040
They want to be in front of
those people.

763
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:52,200
So whether it's, you know, 100
people, 1000 people, 10,000

764
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,080
people, the bottom line is if
it's their people, there's some

765
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,640
value to that.
And if they, which it sounds

766
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:00,800
like they probably have, if
those sponsors have done their

767
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,640
homework, they know just how
powerful podcast advertising can

768
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:06,480
be.
OK, Amanda, coming to you.

769
00:42:06,720 --> 00:42:11,080
Please share some wins with us.
So if you've been a listener of

770
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,120
the show for a long time, you
know, I try everything and

771
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:18,440
anything to get people into my
little community to help support

772
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,440
the community, pay into the
community and help us survive

773
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:26,080
during very lean time.
That this week it was so simple

774
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,480
because just a little Petunia
popped up in the sidewalk in

775
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,360
front of my store, like right in
front of the store and Barber

776
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,200
shop that I just love my Barber
lady.

777
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:38,240
She's so great.
And it's kind of, I looked at

778
00:42:38,240 --> 00:42:40,280
that and I was like, I can do
something with this.

779
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:44,320
This little Petunia in this
crack on the sidewalk has now

780
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,840
caused people to like, come and
take pictures with it.

781
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,760
Wow, it's famous.
It is, and people are leaving

782
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:53,880
things by the sweet little
petunia.

783
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,600
So it started with the sweet
little petunia.

784
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,760
And I had a little bench that I
put a little frog on and I took

785
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:01,200
a picture and that's what
started it.

786
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,160
And I just told the story, did a
little poem with it.

787
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,040
And I just think people are
needing that sweetness, the

788
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,080
wholesomeness.
There was just something special

789
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,320
about it.
And so it's it's caused just in

790
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:15,760
the last couple of days, this
little bit of extra attention to

791
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,000
Ida.
That's good attention.

792
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,880
And so I wasn't expecting that
kind of little win this week.

793
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:26,000
But hey, you just kind of pay
attention to your surroundings

794
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,960
sometimes and the opportunities
right in front of you.

795
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,480
So it's just been a fun weekend
and I can't wait to kind of see

796
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,080
where this journey takes it
until, I'm sorry, but all

797
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,080
flowers eventually die in
Michigan.

798
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,120
And anywhere.
Or anywhere, right?

799
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,400
And so I'm kind of just
documenting the journey because

800
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:48,440
I think there's even some beauty
in when that Petunia goes away

801
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:53,520
and what will pop up next.
So I'm I'm just excited to be on

802
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,600
this journey.
And my poor mom thought I was

803
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,640
losing my mind when I was
explaining it to her.

804
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,640
She didn't understand.
So much of her life is like,

805
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:04,760
gosh, this child of mine.
I mean, I wish there could be a

806
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,400
podcast between the two of you.
She.

807
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,640
Never would.
But she was like, Amanda, I'm

808
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,200
looking at you like you're my 8
year old child who picked a

809
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,080
flower and it's going to die and
you think it's going to live

810
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,080
forever.
I'm like mom, I'm aware it won't

811
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,680
live forever, but that doesn't
mean we can't enjoy it's

812
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:23,080
tremendous beauty and story
today and for however many days

813
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:24,920
it's going to live.
So here she thought I was losing

814
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:26,840
my mind.
I'm like, I promise I'm good mom

815
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,080
and it's bringing joy to the
community.

816
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,240
It's just it's special.
So I don't have any regrets

817
00:44:32,240 --> 00:44:35,720
about the Petunia.
We're and we're sharing a link

818
00:44:35,720 --> 00:44:39,160
to your TikTok video, the first
one of the Ida Petunia.

819
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,880
We're going to put that in the
show notes so people can see

820
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:43,920
what she's talking about.
And I love the little bench you

821
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,920
put next to it, although it I
think that's a cat that's on the

822
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:48,280
bench.
Although it just looks to me

823
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:51,280
from at least from the picture
and from a distance it looks

824
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:55,000
like a little piece of poop.
Oh, it's there was a little

825
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:56,560
frog.
OK, it's a frog.

826
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,000
And then yesterday, Jesus
appeared.

827
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:02,600
Oh wow.
And to today, I already have a

828
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,480
sneak peek of what somebody's
leaving.

829
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:08,840
They sent me a picture and it's
a Lego set of Jamie from the

830
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:12,640
Rusty Cup, myself from Pressed
Rose and Amy the Barber.

831
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,720
And they have yellow flowers,
little scissors and a little

832
00:45:15,720 --> 00:45:18,640
coffee cup.
So little like Lego figurines

833
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,760
are going to be out there today.
So it's just going to be super

834
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:22,640
sweet.
I just love it.

835
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,560
OK, there it is.
Thank you.

836
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:29,280
Congratulations on your win,
your Petunia win, Amanda, love

837
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:30,920
that.
And it looks like we've got a

838
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,720
couple more people that have
joined us from the audience.

839
00:45:33,720 --> 00:45:37,480
And then I'll share after them
my wins from the week.

840
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,920
So let's go to Yvonne.
Yvonne, welcome back to the

841
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,080
stage.
It's been a minute since we've

842
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,040
had you up here.
I see you popping in in the

843
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,360
audience from time to time.
Good to have you up here.

844
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,680
Please share your wins from this
past week.

845
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,800
Thank you.
Well, I love the Petunia series.

846
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:57,480
Amanda, I have been following
very good.

847
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:02,440
And yeah, I am.
One of the reasons you haven't

848
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:06,480
really heard from me lately is
because my very soon after my

849
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,960
kiddo graduated from high
school, my mom, who had driven

850
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:15,120
from Texas to be here for it in
Connecticut, then drove up to

851
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:20,160
Maine to visit her sister and
ended up having a heart attack

852
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:23,600
and then had to have open heart
surgery.

853
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:28,800
So I have been in Maine kind of
being here and, and figuring out

854
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:32,720
logistics with thank God it
happened here because we've got

855
00:46:32,720 --> 00:46:37,560
family support and they were
able to help us find an

856
00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,400
apartment for her and her
husband to stay in for the

857
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,600
recovery.
So, so I've been busy and part

858
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:47,760
of my win is that I am here and
able to help.

859
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:53,360
So that's been great.
And I timed out perfectly with

860
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:59,280
my podcast break.
So that's when that was already

861
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,520
planned and I've already got a
lot of the work done to keep

862
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,160
some stuff rolling while I am on
break.

863
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:09,920
So got little things to do, but
mostly things are are in good

864
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,280
shape.
So those are some major wins,

865
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,040
man.
And she's she's recovering

866
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,480
pretty well.
So yeah.

867
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:23,240
So that's my win and I'm in the
meantime, I have found beautiful

868
00:47:23,240 --> 00:47:26,400
river walk in town.
Your Petunia like appreciating

869
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,640
that beauty.
Amanda is kind of what brought

870
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:33,680
me up because this river walk is
is just gorgeous here and I've

871
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:38,960
been skating or walking it.
The other bonus is that I'm

872
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:44,160
staying with one of my cousins
and his family and just getting

873
00:47:44,240 --> 00:47:46,760
bonus time with them.
It's been incredible.

874
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,000
So yeah, big wins.
Awesome.

875
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:53,240
Thank you for sharing those wins
and I'm glad recovery is going

876
00:47:53,240 --> 00:47:57,120
well and wish her all the best.
And yeah, glad that she was

877
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,680
there in an area where there was
family to help support.

878
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,480
That's great news and really
scary.

879
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,360
So I'm I'm glad it sounds like
it's all working out.

880
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:10,560
Thank you for sharing, Yvonne.
Let's go to Brian.

881
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:12,960
Brian, good morning.
Welcome back to the stage.

882
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,360
Did you want to share some wins
with us?

883
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:19,800
Yes, Good morning, Mark.
First, on the weekly live show

884
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:26,000
thing I am testing out putting
what the theme of the show will

885
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,320
be.
As you know I do the Brian

886
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:35,800
Coletto show but I'm putting
some more words into the title

887
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:38,800
they what the topic or topics
will be.

888
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:44,600
I'm testing that out to see if
that can get more traction to my

889
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:53,640
videos on YouTube specifically.
I've ran at least a mile for 10

890
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:59,920
straight days, so I'm kind of
spilling a little bit of a goal,

891
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:03,040
but I'll be posting more about
it soon.

892
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:09,440
And the other one is that last
night I got to meet a celebrity

893
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:14,240
chef at a networking event.
He was just inducted into the

894
00:49:14,240 --> 00:49:16,120
New Jersey Hall of Fame.
Cool.

895
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,840
Do you know his name?
David Burke is his name.

896
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,320
Thank you, Brian.
Congratulations on all those

897
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:25,440
wins.
Always fun to meet a celebrity.

898
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,520
Did you get a chance to talk to
him at all?

899
00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:31,520
Like, like in depth?
I mean, not really so much in

900
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:35,320
depth, but you got to meet him.
Yeah, I got to meet him.

901
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,320
I didn't even know his name
until I saw the promo from the

902
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,960
chamber.
So I don't pay attention to much

903
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,800
to to food stuff.
I thought it was cool and it and

904
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:48,960
I did get the photo op.
That was the most stressful part

905
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:53,360
of last night was getting that
photo op for my socials.

906
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:57,080
Otherwise, I had a good time.
Congratulations, Brian.

907
00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:59,720
Thank you for sharing all those
wins and keep us posted on your

908
00:50:00,240 --> 00:50:03,720
strategy there and let us know
how that's working out I'd love

909
00:50:03,720 --> 00:50:08,440
to hear more about that thank
you you're welcome all right so

910
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,280
I'll share quickly my.
Wins.

911
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,760
Don't forget Sid.
Oh, did we skip Sid?

912
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,120
Oh my goodness.
I think so, unless I'm making

913
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:16,120
no.
I think you're right.

914
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,840
I think you're right, Sid.
Please forgive me, please.

915
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,480
And please share any wins from
your past week.

916
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,080
Oh.
My gosh, you're too funny, man.

917
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:29,840
Our friend and my friend Stacy
Sherman has been pushing me to

918
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,960
get outside of my comfort zone
and she's been telling me, like

919
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:34,680
said, you need to do more public
speaking.

920
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,400
You need to get more stages, you
need to read this book.

921
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:40,320
And so I finally read the book
and she goes, you need to go to

922
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:41,840
these events.
What book?

923
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,640
The referable speaker is really
good book.

924
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:46,320
I read it over the 4th of July
weekend.

925
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:49,640
And then I read another book.
So I listened to another book

926
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:53,040
Stacy told me to listen to.
And when she mentioned the book,

927
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:55,320
I'm like, well, yeah, you told
me about that book like 6 months

928
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,800
ago and I, I bought it.
It's sitting here, so I'll read

929
00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,080
it now.
So anyways, that led me to

930
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:04,640
signing up to go to the heroic
speaker event called Core.

931
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,080
It's a free event that you have
to pay deposit, you get it back

932
00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:10,240
when you show up.
So I signed up to go to that to

933
00:51:10,240 --> 00:51:13,000
really start diving into public
speaking.

934
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:17,560
And so I'm being, I'm
celebrating being pushed by a

935
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:20,440
friend to do something that I
want to do right, pushing me a

936
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:21,760
little bit outside my comfort
zone.

937
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,080
I'm going to an event that I
don't know a single person,

938
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,640
which is also really cool.
And I'm leaning into doing

939
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:28,960
something that I want to do.
So those are my wins for the

940
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:30,320
week.
Very cool.

941
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:35,680
Sid, please share with us a link
to the core program just because

942
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,120
I think that would be a cool
thing to include in our show

943
00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:39,320
notes.
Thank you.

944
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,960
Awesome.
And congratulations to you on

945
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:46,520
all of your wins and for pushing
yourself to be uncomfortable and

946
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:51,360
setting a good example for us
that yeah, we are it where the

947
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:55,280
magic happens is where we push
ourselves to be uncomfortable.

948
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:59,280
So I am looking forward to that.
And I see you as being a really

949
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,280
powerful public speaker.
Looking forward to following

950
00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:07,080
this journey with you.
As for me, I've been sharing

951
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:10,000
over the past couple months
really that business hadn't been

952
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:14,720
as strong as in months and years
past and I was certainly getting

953
00:52:14,720 --> 00:52:17,800
a little frustrated about it.
And I have since over the past

954
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:21,880
few weeks been sharing some wins
that have shown a turn around

955
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:26,840
and that continues.
This week I got a current client

956
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:31,320
who a consulting client who I'm
helping with their podcast.

957
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:36,480
It's a couple they have hired or
really purchased an add on

958
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,760
service that we provide here at
Ironic Media where we are

959
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:43,280
helping them with their Meta ads
campaign.

960
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:47,120
So this is our second client
now, a current client of my

961
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:51,560
company who has purchased this
new add on program that we offer

962
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:57,400
to help people affordably get
onto Meta ads to end to get more

963
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:00,560
eyes and ears on their podcasts
and or businesses.

964
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:03,320
That's one and second, I wish
she was still here.

965
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:08,600
I saw Renee was in the audience
earlier and Renee often joins us

966
00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:13,200
up here on stage as well.
Unofficially, I've been hired by

967
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:17,280
Renee and her business partner
to launch their podcast.

968
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:21,000
I say unofficially because we
just haven't signed the bottom

969
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:24,040
line yet, but we had a great
call yesterday and they said

970
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:27,400
they do in fact want to move
forward with my help to launch

971
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:29,760
their podcast.
And there may be some future

972
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:33,640
business that comes out of that
too with me helping their other

973
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:37,040
clients launch their podcasts.
So to be continued.

974
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,200
Their two, two wins, I'm really
excited about.

975
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:43,600
Again, it's nice to have a bit
of a turn around here when

976
00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:47,160
business has been a little
challenging, to say the least.

977
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:49,440
I'm excited to celebrate that
with you all.

978
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:53,600
I'm glad to share that with you
and we are back again next week.

979
00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:55,920
Again, reminder, 2 reminders for
you.

980
00:53:55,920 --> 00:54:00,360
First, before you go, please go
to podcastawards.com and give

981
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:05,080
the podcasting morning chat your
vote for the Adam Curry People's

982
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,480
Choice Award and the Education
Award.

983
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,840
And when you're looking for us
among all the nominees for those

984
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:13,600
two categories, look under the
when you're going

985
00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:17,080
alphabetically, you got to find
us under the TS for the

986
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,880
podcasting morning chat.
And another reminder, we are

987
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,400
back next week and it is our
summer schedule.

988
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,040
So we're back Tuesday, 7:00 AM
Eastern Time.

989
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:29,000
And we'll do it all week long
after that, talking all things

990
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:32,680
podcasting to help you in your
podcasting journey.

991
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:36,200
So until Tuesday, make it a
great weekend.

992
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:37,480
Everybody take care.
