1
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:06,800
Good morning podcasting morning

2
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:13,320
Today is Friday, October 10th,
2025, and today we're kicking

3
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:17,160
things off with a rapid fire
round table on podcasting tools,

4
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:22,240
one AI and one non AI pick from
each of us before diving into

5
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:24,400
Friday wins and wrapping the
week strong.

6
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:27,960

12
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,640
Good morning again podcasting.
Morning Chad.

13
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,280
Thanks so much for being here.
I am your host Mark Ronic and

14
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,880
currently on stage with me my Co
host.

15
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:34,560
We have Dr. Fay, producer Ashley
Feller and Sid Meadows and I

16
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:39,080
know we should hear from more of
our cast and crew momentarily.

17
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,840
Hello DRI, saw you come off mic.
Did you want to say something,

18
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,880
Dr. You're.
Going to say Davis waving his

19
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,920
Canadian flag today.
Yes, Dave in the audience was

20
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,800
waving his Canadian flag and I'm
curious as to why.

21
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,920
Canadian Canadian Thanksgiving.
Oh, it's Canadian Thanksgiving

22
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,000
today.
Happy Thanksgiving to those who

23
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,120
are celebrating.
Thank you for the reminder,

24
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:00,720
Dave.
Appreciate that.

25
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,920
Is Dave in Canada?
Is Dave in Canada?

26
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,480
I thought he was across the
pond, as they say.

27
00:02:08,039 --> 00:02:09,360
Dave, will you tell us in the
chat?

28
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,720
Go ahead, DRI.
Don't know where he is but I I

29
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,640
wanted to know if they celebrate
it with the same kinds of foods

30
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,800
that we celebrate it with.
See now Dave doesn't come up and

31
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,080
join us on stage.
He's a very loyal.

32
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:25,240
He's in Niagara.
Fall.

33
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,280
He is.
So he's like right on the right

34
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,280
on the border, is it?
Which side Dave, are you on?

35
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,000
I'm guessing East Coast side or
east side I should say.

36
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,080
Yeah, I would love to know if
there were.

37
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,360
Canada side.
The Canada side, OK, there you

38
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:42,840
go.
I would.

39
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,160
Yeah, I would love to know and
too bad we don't have feel

40
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,280
better here or one of our
Canadian Co hosts because yeah,

41
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,920
I would like to know.
Do they eat the traditional

42
00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:54,880
stuff?
Well, our traditional stuff that

43
00:02:54,880 --> 00:03:01,960
we have on Thanksgiving.
Yeah, like I know we are here.

44
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,880
I almost debated today to have a
discussion about what we do

45
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,440
every once a year.
We talk about what do we do for

46
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,840
the holidays with our podcasts.
I wanted to, I was thinking

47
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,880
about doing that today, but I
feel like it's still a little

48
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,680
early.
Or maybe I'm just refusing to

49
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,840
admit that we're in that season
already.

50
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:25,560
I got up this morning to put out
the trash and it was 42° here in

51
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,440
North Carolina.
So we're, we're here.

52
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,560
It's time the the fall season is
here and I'm just noticing now

53
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,000
being in the mountains, I guess
the higher elevation.

54
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,400
I'm just starting to see the
leaves change on the trees.

55
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,840
So I'm really excited.
I think we're about to head into

56
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,960
peak season for my neck of the
woods in western North Carolina.

57
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,440
And I say welcome my friend.
It's been a long time since I've

58
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,840
seen, you know, a leaf fall to
the ground.

59
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,360
I love fall.
My birthday is in the summertime

60
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:02,600
but damn I just I've the older I
get the more I really hate

61
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,200
summer.
I just, I'm not a fan of it,

62
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,520
alright.
I I know it's Friday, so we were

63
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,120
a little loosey goosey today and
I want to keep it going 'cause I

64
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,680
want to ask Dr. when is your
birthday?

65
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,120
Because if it was the summer,
did we not celebrate it?

66
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,560
Did we not acknowledge it 'cause
I don't know when it is?

67
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:23,080
No, I don't talk about it, but
you found out about it because

68
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,360
of Facebook.
And then you said, Oh my God,

69
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,080
you had one of those V8 moments,
but it was it's July 6th.

70
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,480
July 6th, OK.
Yeah, gotcha.

71
00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:35,920
So about a fun before mine.
Thank you, Dr. Like I said, it's

72
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,880
Friday, so we're a little loosey
goosey today.

73
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,360
And welcome to Alex Baelish and
Nick Nolback.

74
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,160
Glad you're here and thanks to
those of you joining in the

75
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,000
audience as well.
Awesome to have you here, Billy.

76
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,120
Good to see you.
And really specifically what I'm

77
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,840
referring to is good to see you
creating lots of content, doing

78
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:58,080
more of the lives again.
I feel like, you know, you were

79
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,040
a little quiet there between
your move and all the changes

80
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,520
going on.
I don't know, just my perception

81
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,400
and I could be completely off.
And really good to see you doing

82
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,080
some lives again.
I watched some of a live you did

83
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,200
yesterday.
OK, so with that.

84
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,480
And that's Billy Thorpe, by the
way, if you're listening at home

85
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,360
and not here live on Clubhouse
in case you want to go check out

86
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,600
what Billy is up to.
So today we're going to dig into

87
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,400
our favorite tools.
We've, we do this every so often

88
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:31,320
and I think it's good every once
in awhile to refresh and share

89
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,400
our different tools that we're
using and enjoying.

90
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,600
And I think the way I want to do
it is maybe we'll just kind of

91
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,040
do a, a rapid fire before we get
into our wins from the week.

92
00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:46,200
Well, I'd love for everybody to
share one AI powered tool,

93
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,960
something maybe like a ChatGPT,
a well to script.

94
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,680
I guess we could call it that
way.

95
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,840
There's going to be some that
are kind of Gray area because

96
00:05:55,840 --> 00:05:59,720
they're both AI and non AI tools
all in one.

97
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:04,480
It's not called the script.
That's just yes, yes, for Alex

98
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,960
will not be sharing descript as
any of his favorite tools.

99
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,760
I, I and I know there are others
that feel sometimes the same way

100
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,520
and then there are others in
another camp that absolutely

101
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,640
love it.
And I know Ashley is one of

102
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,560
those people.
At least I know she uses it

103
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,360
regularly.
I don't know if she loves it or

104
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,720
not.
Well, maybe find out.

105
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,120
So here we go.
Let's start.

106
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,840
I'm gonna, since we were just
talking to Dr. And I know Ashley

107
00:06:28,840 --> 00:06:32,520
is out camping in the wilderness
right now with sleeping people

108
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,520
all around her apparently
snoring.

109
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,720
So she'll have to share in the
chat.

110
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:41,200
So let's go to Sid first.
Sid, if you don't mind, would

111
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,800
you share with us an AI powered
tool that you're really enjoying

112
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,200
right now and one non AI tool
that you're enjoying and

113
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,800
preferably all around or
something to do with your

114
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:52,560
podcast.
Good.

115
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,920
Morning, everybody.
Morning for somebody that is

116
00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:01,040
predominantly just the talent in
a podcast and the host I

117
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,680
struggle with this question a
little bit because I mean I do

118
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,640
use ChatGPT on a regular basis
my favorite brainstorming

119
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:12,960
partner I use Otter, you know,
but that records my meetings and

120
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,760
stuff but I'm probably on the
very basic side of this I'm

121
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:21,000
probably not using some really
cool new tool that everybody is

122
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,960
you know and the same thing goes
with the you know equipment and

123
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:29,040
stuff like because I just have a
really good mic and a computer

124
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,440
so I'm probably not the best
person to share well, I'll I'll.

125
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,120
Dig in a little bit, then you
say that ChatGPT is your

126
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,040
favorite brainstorming partner.
So when it comes to your

127
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,480
podcast, give me an idea you're
sitting down to and you're you

128
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,480
just fired up ChatGPT to help
you brainstorm with your

129
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,080
podcast.
What are you doing?

130
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:51,960
What are you typing to get
started?

131
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,120
Most recent thing I did I mean
I, I asked it I upload the

132
00:07:55,120 --> 00:08:00,000
transcript and asked it to write
an e-mail and then I asked it to

133
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:04,760
review A blog and I asked it to
write a LinkedIn post and you

134
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,280
know those kinds of very basic
things.

135
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:12,400
But recently I uploaded all my
previous sponsorship information

136
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,080
and asked it to talk with ask me
questions about sponsorship.

137
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,320
What am I looking for?
The types of sponsorships I'm

138
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,600
looking for.
And between that little down a

139
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:27,000
1520 minute session, I was able
to really outline what I want my

140
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,560
sponsorship to look like in
2026.

141
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:34,360
And then from there I took it
another level and outline what I

142
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,120
want a community to look like.
Let's don't call it a Patreon

143
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,840
community because it won't be,
but what I wanted the community

144
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,080
to look like and the types of
things we've batted back and

145
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,720
forth about, the types of things
I'd like to see as value for

146
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,760
that community membership.
And so it was actually a lot of

147
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,640
fun.
I enjoy going back and forth.

148
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,880
I really like it when asked me
when it asks me questions and I

149
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,320
typically tell it to ask me
questions like please ask me

150
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,360
questions up to 10 questions,
one at a time so that I can

151
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,480
answer it and then we can
continue to go for it.

152
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,280
I really like that component of
it because it gives me the

153
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,080
opportunity to think about
things.

154
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,400
And then and then.
Respond.

155
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,440
Sid, I ask that too, but I ask
it in a different way.

156
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,800
I say if you have any clarifying
questions, please ask me one at

157
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,880
a time.
And then someone says that I

158
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,560
should put something like, if
you have any clarifying

159
00:09:24,560 --> 00:09:28,640
questions, ask one at a time and
keep asking until you're 95%

160
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,240
sure clear on what my goal is or
something like that.

161
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,080
OK, that makes sense.
And I appreciate that both of

162
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:42,640
you are sharing the that little
tid tidbit there one at a time.

163
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,760
That that one for me is, is a
big one because I get sometimes,

164
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:52,360
you know, it asks me 10
questions all at once and it

165
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,040
feels overwhelming, right?
Like, I mean, obviously you can

166
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,080
choose just to answer one of the
questions or I did.

167
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,000
It's not like you're being
berated by questions and it's

168
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,640
demanding that you answer them
all.

169
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,960
But at the same time, it still
feels like a lot and it and it

170
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,040
makes my mind go in a million
different directions.

171
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,480
So I often stress just give me
one question at a time.

172
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,840
That helps a lot.
And and it helps me just focus

173
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,920
on that first answer and then
move on to the next.

174
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,080
There's one other thing.
Oh, go ahead, Go ahead, DRI.

175
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,520
Was going to say, and also
another pro tip is set up a

176
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:30,120
hotkey to to do that question
like, you know, windows question

177
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,600
mark to do that question for you
so you don't have to keep typing

178
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,920
it out all the time.
What do you mean to set up a

179
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,880
hotkey?
How do you how would you set

180
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,640
that up specifically?
I'm giving you advice that I'm

181
00:10:41,680 --> 00:10:46,520
going to be doing today.
So you'll have to get back to

182
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,440
us.
You don't have to get back to

183
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,640
you, but I know that there's a
way both in Windows and in.

184
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,040
You know that whole Mackey thing
you guys do?

185
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:58,000
Yeah, But maybe Nick, just put
something in the chat here, text

186
00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,560
expander, do you want to explain
that?

187
00:11:01,680 --> 00:11:03,720
Oh, Nick, there he is.
Good morning.

188
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:09,080
So there are different, they're
called text expander tools and

189
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:14,480
you can essentially program a
hot key and then have text that

190
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,120
you apply to that.
So you can like quote Dr. saying

191
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,280
like windows question mark.
You can say whenever I click

192
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,480
Windows question mark on my
keyboard, drop in this text.

193
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,920
It's pretty slick.
I was using that for Windows has

194
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,000
another similar thing where you
can like copy and paste.

195
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,400
It's not like a command C,
command V or control.

196
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,280
So control V it's not an extra.
Key in there.

197
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:42,160
And it will take the copied text
and send it to ChatGPT and then

198
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,080
pasting chat to to your spot.
So it's like a similar kind of

199
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:49,240
function we got that you could
program like if you were doing

200
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:54,160
e-mail outreach to guests or
follow up to guests or whatever,

201
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:58,360
you could pre program all of
your emails as hotkeys.

202
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,480
And then when you go to type the
e-mail, you just press that hot

203
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:02,440
key and like, boom, your email's
working for you.

204
00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:05,320
E-mail one. e-mail two.
Yeah.

205
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,280
By the way, I think we have a
record for Nick's response being

206
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,920
all clear from start to finish,
not switching away from his

207
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,040
headset to his phone.
That's a first.

208
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,080
I don't know, Nick, did you get
new heads, a new headset, or we

209
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,760
were just lucky this time?
Yep, Yep, we are.

210
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,040
We are.
Oh, there it goes where it is

211
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:26,800
where it is.
OK.

212
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,040
That's hilarious.
OK, the Patreon, I couldn't

213
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,720
understand them.
I couldn't understand them.

214
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,080
It was so clear, right?
The go the go Fund me is still

215
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:40,960
on the fake Go Fund me for Nick
to get new headset that works on

216
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,320
Clubhouse 'cause I don't know,
maybe it's just specific.

217
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:44,800
It's a weird glitch with
Clubhouse.

218
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,800
I don't know.
But yeah, there we are.

219
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,160
And Sid, I have one more follow
up question for you, Sir.

220
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,720
You said when you were using
ChatGPT to brainstorm.

221
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,200
What a community looks like for
you specifically?

222
00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:01,560
And you said not a Patreon
community so I was curious if

223
00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:04,680
you could explain.
Are you thinking about making it

224
00:13:04,680 --> 00:13:07,560
a paid community but not use
Patreon?

225
00:13:07,560 --> 00:13:10,600
Or are you thinking Patreon just
you?

226
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,840
You don't want to have a paid
community at all I guess is what

227
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,000
I'm getting at.
You know, it's a good question.

228
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,320
So I've mapped out a strategy
for monetization of my podcast

229
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,440
in 2026 that will hopefully get
me to what my goal is because I

230
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:29,320
have an established goal and I
have 3 tiers of monetization for

231
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:33,880
companies, top tier, a middle
tier and a low tier, which I

232
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,440
already have a sponsor for the
low tier in the middle tier

233
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,280
already.
And having really only talked

234
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,120
about it a couple of times.
And then I thought because I

235
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,520
have a relatively engaged
community and I've never really

236
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,240
done anything to bring them
together.

237
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,560
And so I talked about like I
wanted to talk about what is a

238
00:13:49,560 --> 00:13:52,520
community look like?
What would be part of that

239
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,080
community?
What's the value I'm going to

240
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,000
give them for the money that
they're going to give me?

241
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,240
And so we brainstormed about
that.

242
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,440
I just am not going to do it on
Patreon.

243
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,320
I'm going to do it in Kajabi
through the Kajabi, you know,

244
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,720
payment fee system.
I'm not going to go to, I'm

245
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,120
probably will host it on Zoom.
I don't think I'm going to

246
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,680
actually, I don't know, still
working through some of the

247
00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:15,440
little tweaks like I may go to
circle and do it or something

248
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,480
like that, but I'm not sure just
yet.

249
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:22,320
I've sent my idea to a couple of
my raving fans, people that I

250
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,240
know that listen to every
episode, and I've gotten some

251
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,160
really good feedback from them.
One of them was, which I really,

252
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,880
really appreciate.
And I told him this is I can't

253
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,680
consume any more content, like
don't get any more content

254
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,920
because I thought that I would
do like a bonus episode just for

255
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:39,760
the, for the community kind of
thing.

256
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,480
And I really appreciated.
I don't have time to consume

257
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,880
more content because I don't
necessarily have time to create

258
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,400
more content.
But for a paid community, I'm

259
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:56,080
willing to do what's necessary
to ensure they get the value out

260
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,200
of giving me however much money
I decide that they're going to

261
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:00,480
give me.
OK.

262
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,680
Thank you, Sid.
And your answer has sparked some

263
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:08,280
some shares here as far as
community building apps, Dave

264
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,960
Campbell in the audience as he
uses Meet up.

265
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,360
And Nick, do you want to share a
little bit?

266
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:17,440
Because I keep hearing,
particularly over the past month

267
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:22,560
or so, not that I've never heard
of school before SKOOL, but for

268
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,200
whatever reason over the past
month or so, I keep hearing

269
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,560
people talking about it.
So I don't know if they're just

270
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,800
doing a good.
You're like me, but if you're

271
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,960
like me, Mark, you're getting
targeted by them because I can't

272
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,360
open up Facebook without seeing
an ad from those guys, or

273
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:36,880
Instagram for that matter.
Yeah.

274
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,040
See, I think you're probably
seeing that because you're doing

275
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,680
the research and the algorithms
are finding you because I'm not

276
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,680
seeing anything really on
school.

277
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,640
I probably will now that I'm
talking about it, but Nick, do

278
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,960
you want to share a little bit
about it or anybody, Alex, you

279
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,440
know about?
I subscribe to two groups that

280
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:59,200
are School 1 and it's like every
other platform you can, there's

281
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,800
a forum section, there's a
section where you can put

282
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,120
videos.
This is for lacrosse.

283
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:10,240
So there's the whole outline of
training guides that you can

284
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,800
use.
And then he does also a zoom

285
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,480
that he puts up on the offseason
that he'll put up.

286
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,600
And there's a discussion thing
with that.

287
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,000
And there's like a point system
that you can be a part of if

288
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,320
that's something that you're
interested in, like for as a as

289
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,520
a host of it.
So if you accomplish certain

290
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,080
things, you get more points.
But I think it's a it's an

291
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,680
interesting platform.
I mean, a lot of people use it

292
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,200
and you should check it out.
Awesome.

293
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:43,600
OK, there's and then Dr. says
she thinks it's an Alex Hermozi

294
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,760
product.
I'll go and look and verify

295
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:46,960
that.
Billy, did you want to add

296
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,680
something?
Yeah, I'll, I'll trip in real

297
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,640
quick.
And I'm always the guy that

298
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,040
throws the blank, the water on
the fire here because school is

299
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,720
a Hormuzi product.
And yes, to Sid's point, they

300
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,400
just hammer the ads, but it's
also a Go High Level product.

301
00:17:04,839 --> 00:17:08,480
And so if you're looking at
school, you should go look at Go

302
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:13,079
High Level because you get way
more stuff for the same price.

303
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:17,119
And that's where I have.
So basically go high level is

304
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,720
like a ton of products they've
put under one roof.

305
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:24,000
So they've taken like 18 or 20
different things, mini chat,

306
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,800
e-mail, you Zoom, I mean all
these things and they've put

307
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:32,200
under one category or under 1,
blank you under 1, whatever you

308
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,880
get.
What I'm saying one program and

309
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:39,320
then and customize it how my
whole business runs off of this.

310
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,760
Well, then once you get it set
up, you can then white label,

311
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,920
sell that to other people.
And that's what we're Mosey's

312
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,600
doing is it's go high level
white labeling it, selling it to

313
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,160
a bunch of people and getting
transaction fees off of people

314
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,880
for your membership group.
I mean, it's a good business

315
00:17:55,880 --> 00:18:00,920
model, but go look at go high
level and I use an agency of

316
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,560
high level as well because the
guy could be built all the stuff

317
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,000
and I run my community out of
there and it's amazing.

318
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:13,040
And sometimes with the agencies
not school, you get a little

319
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:16,480
little more like I just get the
ability to go live inside of my

320
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:20,640
group and then also have like
meetups inside of my group as

321
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,280
well.
So yeah, just go look at a bunch

322
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,840
of products before you jump to
crazy on school.

323
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,880
They do great marketing, but
it's not all it's cracked up to

324
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,360
be.
So this is a simple version of

325
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:37,840
this school is like a white
label of high level is that.

326
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:42,720
Yes, a very, a very limited
white label of Go high levels.

327
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,960
So it's basically community
feature of Go high level.

328
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,200
That's all of it.
And feature of a huge program.

329
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,720
Yeah, it's very limited.
I had a tour of Go High Level

330
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,360
because several people had
mentioned it before and I had a

331
00:18:55,360 --> 00:18:57,120
marketing person because we're
looking at it for our new

332
00:18:57,120 --> 00:19:01,360
business and they do website
hosting, e-mail marketing

333
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,400
community.
I mean, the only thing you can't

334
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,560
do is at least the way I
understood that you can't go

335
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,000
live in the group and the
recording, like say if we had

336
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,600
our membership, meaning we can't
do it in the group, in the

337
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,600
recording, stay in the group.
We can upload the recording to

338
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,800
the group, but we still have to
do the recording somewhere else

339
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,920
or the meeting somewhere else.
But it's an all in platform.

340
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,600
It's $95 a month.
DRS that in the chat.

341
00:19:26,120 --> 00:19:27,400
It's really cool, but it was
interesting.

342
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,280
My marketing person was like,
this looks very familiar to one

343
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,960
of my other clients.
And so she reached out to the

344
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:38,040
guy that helps her other client
and it's exactly what Billy

345
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:39,720
said.
What this guy did was go in to

346
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,680
go high level and pick four or
five different components of it

347
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,200
and then white labeled it and
he's selling it to his clients.

348
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,440
So it's interesting that they
built this all in and they sell

349
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,960
directly, but they also white
label to other people to sell.

350
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,400
So it's really interesting
business model for sure.

351
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,880
Very cool.
All right, see, This is why we

352
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,280
do these discussions here.
We repeat these tools

353
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,920
discussions because we always
end up finding something

354
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,160
different to talk about.
Billy, did you want to keep

355
00:20:05,360 --> 00:20:07,400
going?
I was just going to say we go

356
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,080
high level.
I'm not sure when you did that

357
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:14,120
demo Sid, but I just logged into
my account and now I can go live

358
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,480
in my group host meetings and
they just post in the group as a

359
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,480
post so I don't have to do
outside zoom calls anymore.

360
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,040
Do we know what this costs to do
if Billy to?

361
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,840
$95.95 dollars a month.
They have a higher level

362
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,160
platform too, like it's 200 and
something, but it gives you more

363
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,480
stuff.
But it's $95 a month and give

364
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,960
you pretty much everything that
you need to run your podcast,

365
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,680
run your community, run your
business.

366
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,360
Yep, I see it right here.
Thank you Sid, appreciate that.

367
00:20:45,360 --> 00:20:49,800
Yeah, there's the starter pack
is $97.00 a month unlimited

368
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,600
pack.
These are just the names they

369
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,800
call it 297 and then the pro
pack 497.

370
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,080
So just depends on really all of
your different needs.

371
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,320
But it sounds like a lot of us
could easily get away with the

372
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,680
starter pack at least to to get
things rolling if we wanted to

373
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,520
use something like this.
Thank you Sid.

374
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:12,400
See that we just had what, 10
minute discussion on Sid and his

375
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,840
shares, even though he said he's
probably not the best person to

376
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,360
start with.
So there it is.

377
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,320
Let's keep it moving.
I will go to Dr. 'cause I know

378
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,160
when I told Dr. about this
morning's topic, when we

379
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,320
discussed it, she said I have
several things I could share.

380
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,160
So let's do it.
Dr. What are what's an AI tool

381
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,680
that you're using right now that
you love?

382
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:39,160
I've talked about this before
and it's we sound dot FMI use it

383
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:44,040
as my first pass editing.
But here's the problem.

384
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:49,520
I think that you know, we are
the users of this are pretty

385
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,600
much counting down as to when
they're going to close the doors

386
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:59,840
on this because I really feel
like the platform developers

387
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:04,000
have abandoned this.
I don't know why.

388
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,520
I've written them several times.
Whenever there's something that

389
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:12,200
something goes wrong, I contact
them and I always put a little

390
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,480
by the way, is this still alive?
Are you still planning to do

391
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,800
that?
Because the road map, you know,

392
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,160
there's stuff on there from a
year and a half ago that has not

393
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,760
even been looked at.
So I never get an answer to

394
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,720
that.
They always fix my issue, but I

395
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,160
never get an answer to what I
put in.

396
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:36,240
But I love that platform and I'm
going to cry like crazy when it

397
00:22:36,360 --> 00:22:40,360
actually does die.
Matt Bliss in the chat said the

398
00:22:40,360 --> 00:22:44,000
last update on Resound was May
16th, 2024.

399
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,600
Been a while.
It's been a while.

400
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,760
Yeah.
And it's Matthew.

401
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,960
Do you use it?
I didn't know that you used it.

402
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,400
Or is that just something that
you're looking at just now for

403
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,440
me?
I have the nasty habit of being

404
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,360
the Internet search guy and just
pumping the chat with anything

405
00:23:00,360 --> 00:23:03,840
anybody says at any time.
So no, I love that.

406
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,480
You're a nasty, nasty thing.
I love that.

407
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,160
I like having somebody doing
that for us 'cause I, you know,

408
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,400
somebody's thinking about it and
maybe driving right now and

409
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:13,760
can't look it up.
So there you go.

410
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,320
Thank you, Matt.
I appreciate you doing that.

411
00:23:16,120 --> 00:23:21,360
But it cuts down my time so, so
much.

412
00:23:21,360 --> 00:23:24,000
It is amazing.
It's an amazing tool.

413
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,400
And we're just counting the
time.

414
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,440
I have even suggested, well,
maybe you should do like a

415
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:35,360
monthly, you know, a monthly
newsletter just to let just to

416
00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:38,120
let us know that you're alive.
You know, that's, that would be

417
00:23:38,120 --> 00:23:41,120
fine.
But again, that has gone

418
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:49,200
unanswered as well.
My non non AI tool I guess would

419
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:54,120
have to be Audacity for now
because Audacity is going under

420
00:23:54,120 --> 00:24:01,960
a huge huge change, huge update
probably first quarter of next

421
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:06,080
year I'm guessing.
And they put out a video almost

422
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:10,040
an hour long, and it looks very
much like Hindenburg, if people

423
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:14,240
are familiar with Hindenburg.
And I was on the beta test team

424
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:18,080
for this.
So I love my Audacity and people

425
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:22,000
who want to, you know, send me
shade because of it.

426
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,760
I think they are thinking, my
first question to them is how

427
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,080
long has it been since you first
went into Audacity?

428
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,080
Usually the answer is, oh, gosh,
I haven't been there for a

429
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,000
couple years.
Well, stupid head, come on, you

430
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:35,960
get with the time.
What?

431
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,320
Was that stupid head?
Stupid head, poopy pants, Poopy

432
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:44,600
pants, stupid head.
Get with the times.

433
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,960
I realized that I I didn't want
to be censored, so edit it out.

434
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:56,000
Certainly it was pretty bad in
the beginning, but it was

435
00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:00,680
acquired by another company a
while back and once they got it,

436
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:05,840
they started doing updates right
and left almost every month.

437
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,040
It was amazing.
So now it is.

438
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,040
It's kind of your best, I must
say.

439
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,920
I really like it and that's what
I got to say.

440
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:17,680
There you go.
I still use, I've said it

441
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,880
before, I still use Audacity as
well.

442
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,200
When I need to do some quick
audio editing, I go right to

443
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,640
Audacity.
That's the first one.

444
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,240
Even though I have Adobe tools
for whatever reason.

445
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,920
Maybe it's because I'm used to
using it from all the years of

446
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,920
using it.
But yes, and I agree with you,

447
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:39,080
it is changing dramatically.
I'm almost not wanting them to

448
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:43,960
update it to this new Hindenburg
looking kind of thing because

449
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,680
I'm so comfortable with it.
But you know that's going out of

450
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,960
your comfort zone and that's a
whole other subject.

451
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:52,600
That's right.
That's a whole other episode we

452
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,160
can dive into one day.
Yeah.

453
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,240
Thank you, Dr. Appreciate that.
And I'm going to go to Jeff

454
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,600
Dwoskin, who is on stage and has
been waiting patiently.

455
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,920
Thank you for being here.
Jeff, did you want to share an

456
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,280
AI power tool and a non AI power
tool that you're loving these

457
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,800
days?
I discovered Claude yesterday.

458
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,080
Really.
Did you really?

459
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,000
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I had heard of it.

460
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,280
What I mean is I started using
it for the first time yesterday.

461
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,360
It's it's pretty good, pretty
intense.

462
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,600
What do you like about it?
I know you haven't used it that

463
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,320
much yet, but is there something
about it that's drawing you to

464
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,320
it?
Because I assume ChatGPT is the

465
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,720
one that you've been using.
Yes, ChatGPT is the one that I

466
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,640
use to generate the images that
is driving my world class T

467
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,440
public store.
But Claude, I start playing with

468
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,600
it because it's really good at
code.

469
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,520
And so I've been playing around
with kind of seeing what kind of

470
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,040
applications or things that I
can do with some of the data

471
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:56,240
sources that I have to kind of,
you know, visualize it a little

472
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,800
better and make it a little
cooler and and dive a little

473
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,640
deeper.
You know, there's companies out

474
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,080
there using claw to rewrite
their entire I mean, there was

475
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,240
stories about it rebuilding
slack just for the hell of it,

476
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:11,520
but it's pretty cool.
I and and for DI, I'm a huge

477
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:16,720
audacity fan, love it.
I don't know why anyone wouldn't

478
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:17,440
like it.
Sorry.

479
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,400
I'm walking so it's.
Pretty awesome for a free tool.

480
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,560
I mean, it's got everything you
really need for audio editing in

481
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:28,000
my opinion is, you know, I know
that there are more power tools

482
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,760
out there, but I think for the
average podcaster who's doing an

483
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,080
audio podcast, it's a no
brainer.

484
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:40,640
I appreciate being called the
average, but the I I appreciate

485
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,680
that, but I just think it's a
pretty freaking powerful tool

486
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,480
for maybe because it was the
first thing I used, you know, so

487
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,360
it was just, you know, they, I
love that they do say.

488
00:27:50,360 --> 00:27:54,800
That you, they do say that you
kind of gravitate towards the

489
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,080
tool that you were taught on.
And that's I guess that's true

490
00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,800
for me.
Yep, me too.

491
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,920
I used to tube TA lot for my
podcast.

492
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:08,640
I I use Otter to transcribe and
I pop that up into a custom GPT.

493
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:12,720
Then I made that kind of will
turn that into my show notes and

494
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,240
social posts and everything like
that.

495
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,400
I still love ChatGPT as well.
And then you got me hooked on

496
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,560
Sora.
So I've been making stupid

497
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:24,560
videos.
Marks marks things on Sora that

498
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,120
he's doing is amazing.
Thank you.

499
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,680
And Jeff's are really funny too.
By the way, you haven't followed

500
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,160
Jeff Dwoskin to see some of his.
Yeah.

501
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,400
Yes, perhaps you haven't heard
of my account that has 15 likes.

502
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,640
Congrats.
I'm burning, I'm burning it up

503
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,320
on Sora.
Not.

504
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,880
Just made me hip to that that I
should be liking and commenting

505
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,880
on his and so I've been.
Yeah.

506
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:55,280
So Dr. often times she will
private, you know, DM me and

507
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:59,080
she'll say, hey, that video you
did of X, that was really good.

508
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,200
And I and I say to her, Dr.
please just go say that over on

509
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,440
the post that I put up because
that's going to help it, you

510
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,200
know, with the algorithm.
So she's been doing that more.

511
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:09,920
I appreciate that, Dr. Yeah.
Lots.

512
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,240
More right, It's like when
you're at a restaurant and

513
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,320
someone walks up to you and go,
oh, I've been listening to your

514
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,600
podcast or oh, I love what
you're posting on social.

515
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:22,120
It's like thanks for the random
interaction that you know you

516
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,000
could.
Yeah, it's nice to get the

517
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,360
compliment face to face, but
you're hoping that they're also

518
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,840
actually responding to the post
itself.

519
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:33,320
Yeah, I get it.
The contrary in here for just a

520
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,680
second the other day Mark, I
wanted to text you and tell you

521
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:40,240
to step away from the Sora for a
minute because you had done like

522
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,600
3 or 4 videos in a row and I'm
like Mark, step away from the

523
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:50,520
Sora AI Sora Mark is not up to
real life Mark just yet at.

524
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,160
Least.
Jake Paul, I guess, has been the

525
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,520
one that everyone was doing
that.

526
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,080
I haven't jumped into the cameo
thing yet.

527
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,880
Let me explain that.
So one of the features Sora it

528
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,240
in the app itself.
It has its own app.

529
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,760
You have this thing called Cameo
and that it's where you can

530
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,760
share your likeness.
We talked about it a little bit

531
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:15,000
before you share your likeness
and your voice and then you can

532
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,080
put yourself in whatever scene
you want to generate and if you

533
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,880
choose, if you elect to, you can
make it public for anybody to

534
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,840
play with.
And yes, you can actually

535
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,920
control that if you don't like
what somebody does with your

536
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:34,040
image, you can actually pull it
right so that you do have

537
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,760
control and it all lives within
the Surah app.

538
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,960
The and then that's the other
cool thing about it is Jeff is

539
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,120
referring to, he's not sure how
he feels about AI Mark yet

540
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:50,200
because I've shared some, some
videos within the Surah app of

541
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:55,520
me slam dunking a basketball in
the Chicago Bulls #23 uniform,

542
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,640
things like that.
And that's what Jeff is

543
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,400
referring to.
I have not posted those.

544
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:04,280
And yes, Sid, I know I was
getting a little happy with it.

545
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:09,040
And I feel like, you know, when
you see these AI trends, if you

546
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:13,000
want to get more eyeballs on it,
you got to pump them out while

547
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,840
it's a hot trend.
So that's why that was why I was

548
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,320
kind of doing that and because I
was just having a lot of fun.

549
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,280
I'm going to bring it back to
you for a second, Sid, since

550
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,600
we're talking about tools and
then we're going to, we're going

551
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,280
to have to wrap it up.
So if people want to share other

552
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,920
tools, just flash your mic or
something real quick so I can

553
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,760
try to get to you.
But Sid, you recently asked me

554
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:39,480
about if I knew about any
teleprompter apps and I shared

555
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,800
one with you.
I think it was called prompter

556
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:46,760
but I'm curious, have you used
it yet and and or what are you

557
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,280
using?
Thank you for sharing that app

558
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,400
with me.
I did go download it and I had a

559
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,680
video that I'd done on Instagram
and I thought that's a really

560
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,280
great video.
I need to repurpose it and put

561
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,920
it on LinkedIn.
And so I wanted to, I got the

562
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,160
script and I wanted a
teleprompter.

563
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:08,720
I was way over thinking this.
I got the teleprompter app and

564
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,760
but because I had the free
version, it would only do so

565
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:18,200
many characters and I couldn't
upload the full script unless I

566
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,320
upgraded.
It wouldn't even let me save the

567
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:25,480
script until I cut it down below
the minimum characters.

568
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:31,720
So I just deleted the app and I
then I went and printed out the

569
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:36,240
script and a piece of paper and
taped it on to my to my my

570
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,480
tripod.
And then I looked at myself

571
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:39,560
like, what the hell are you
doing?

572
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,120
It's not like this is really
hard, dude.

573
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:47,720
So I just made it again without
the script, but I was way

574
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,120
overthinking it.
But I, it would seem like a

575
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,240
really great tool, but I was not
in a place that I use a

576
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,960
teleprompter on a regular basis.
So I was not going to pay for it

577
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,720
because I don't need it.
I got enough of that pay $20.00

578
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,440
a month for this and that and
whatever.

579
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:05,520
I feel like Dr. and Zapier every
time I get somebody to pay to

580
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,320
pay me $20.00 a month kind of
thing.

581
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,040
Yeah, yeah.
OK, that's fair.

582
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,120
And I'm now I have to go check
to make sure I'm not paying for

583
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,680
that app because I don't feel
like I have those limitations.

584
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,280
And I don't feel like I'm paying
for it though, because I do go

585
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,120
and check all my subscriptions
from time to time to make sure.

586
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,560
But maybe I missed it.
I'm going to have to go back and

587
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,080
look.
And also just a quick side note,

588
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaking of teleprompters, if
you haven't heard yet, Elgato, a

589
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:35,360
lot of us are at least aware of,
and some of us have an Elgato

590
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,760
teleprompter.
It's an actual hardware piece of

591
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,400
hardware.
It's not software and it's

592
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,880
really great for the content
creator.

593
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,480
The average, sorry Jeff, the
average content creator.

594
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,200
It's a great little tool, but
they just came out with Prompter

595
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:54,600
XL, which is a a 16 inch
monitor.

596
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:58,520
So it's almost double the size I
think of the the current one

597
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,280
that they have.
I think it's really cool.

598
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,040
It has a couple of cool features
that maybe the regular one

599
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,840
doesn't, but overall, I'm not
sure I'm ready to dish out

600
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,679
$600.00 for it.
I think I'm just fine with the

601
00:34:12,679 --> 00:34:17,000
one that I have for now because
that is a hefty price.

602
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,440
I may wait.
I know Elgato usually gets

603
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:25,360
involved in the the Black
Thursday holiday sales and so

604
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,080
maybe I'll wait and just see if
that's going on.

605
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,639
OK, so just a heads up on that.
And Matt, did you want to say

606
00:34:31,639 --> 00:34:34,520
something on this topic?
No, I was, I was flashing myself

607
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:36,159
for sharing a tool.
OK, go for it.

608
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,960
On the AI front, it's got to be
just continually working in

609
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:47,520
ChatGPT for me, but more for my
clients and figuring out how to

610
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:51,120
make prompting more efficient
and finding more efficient ways

611
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,639
to get the content I want from
it, at least as a starting point

612
00:34:54,639 --> 00:34:56,719
for the content that I create
for them.

613
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,880
To the point now with one of my
clients, it's now fed into the

614
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,440
entire efficiency of how they do
the podcast, which is great.

615
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:10,560
The non AI tool that I value the
most and have for the last few

616
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,760
years.
To the point where when I got

617
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,840
back to Australia so that I can
get them cheap enough, I bought

618
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,760
like several of these to bring
back with me to Ireland.

619
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:25,640
It's a custom macro pad like a
mini keyboard that I bought from

620
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,040
Aliexpress.
The reason I bought them from

621
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:33,280
there is because I bought 1
initially and it was great and

622
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,680
it was like 20 Australian
dollars, which was awesome, but

623
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:41,720
the programming was broken and I
didn't, I'd forgotten that in

624
00:35:41,720 --> 00:35:44,680
Ireland and the UK and generally
around this side of Europe,

625
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,480
there's customs charges for
anything that comes from

626
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:52,320
anything kind of suspect in the
areas of China and Japan and

627
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,080
that kind of area.
And Aliexpress is one of those

628
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,040
things.
So I bought like 6 boards and I

629
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:02,000
used them to map custom
shortcuts to Davinci Resolve,

630
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,280
Adobe Audition, and any other
application that requires me to

631
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:09,280
work really quickly.
If and if you're using keyboard

632
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:13,800
shortcuts that involve more than
two fingers at a time, then I

633
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,840
suggest getting a macro pad like
one of these.

634
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,760
And just as a sub recommendation
for anyone looking for AI tools

635
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:25,760
for audio editing, but as a
starting point, the company

636
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:31,960
Sonable recently released a
learning bundle, which is a set

637
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,920
of very basic tools that don't
go into a huge amount of depth,

638
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:39,760
but they are AI driven.
And I think it's only €50, which

639
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:43,480
for you Americans at the moment
might be about 70 U.S. dollars,

640
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:48,360
something like that.
But it includes a compressor, an

641
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:53,720
EQ, a limiter, A reverb, and an
unmask, which I'm not entirely

642
00:36:53,720 --> 00:36:55,880
sure does.
Maybe it's a denoise, spectral

643
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:57,880
denoise.
But for anyone who's looking at

644
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:03,160
Isotope and going $600.00 and I
have to spend hours learning

645
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:07,400
this thing, then this Sonowball
pack might be a good way to go.

646
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,520
Yes, it is lifetime.
They are.

647
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,480
They are very basic.
You'll look at it and see it.

648
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,920
It's like 3 dials to try and
dial it in.

649
00:37:15,240 --> 00:37:18,520
But the idea is that it's a
learning set of tools, so you

650
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,360
practice with it.
It probably won't be where you

651
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:25,080
end up if you want to continue
to improve the quality of your

652
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:29,400
audio, but it will train your
ears to hear the things that

653
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:36,800
work or don't work.
And if it helps, I spent €150 on

654
00:37:37,240 --> 00:37:41,280
a three or four plug in pack.
I think it was the smart pack or

655
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,200
something.
I haven't looked back.

656
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,440
I essentially use Isotope now
for mouth D click and

657
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,400
occasionally spectral denoise
and that's it.

658
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,960
So that's an indicator hot.
Get it?

659
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:54,160
Yeah.
Thank you, Matt.

660
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,120
That's awesome.
Like love learning about

661
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,920
something new.
I had no idea about sound bowl

662
00:37:59,920 --> 00:38:02,440
and I'm gonna take a look into
that.

663
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,360
And by the way, Speaking of
Matt, we talked about it briefly

664
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,120
yesterday and just want to
remind people to go check out

665
00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:12,200
Matt's latest episode of
Rethinking Podcasting Episode

666
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,440
14.
Matt shares why too much

667
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,520
podcasting research can actually
hurt your show.

668
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:22,760
He talks about how chasing
growth hacks can bury your

669
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,240
unique voice, why it took him so
long to make Rethinking

670
00:38:26,240 --> 00:38:28,480
Podcasting, and how communities
like ours.

671
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,560
Specifically, he mentions and
talks a little bit about the

672
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:35,040
Podcasting morning chat, helping
creators focus on real

673
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,480
perspectives instead of just
tactics.

674
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:43,040
So that one's called on the
harmful obsession of podcasting

675
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,360
as a discipline.
So check that out at

676
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,040
rethinkingpodcasting.com.
Tom.

677
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,400
And also another reminder real
quick that at 8:00 AM today

678
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,000
live, if you're so this is
mainly for our live audience

679
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,520
right now.
If you want to join me at 8:00

680
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:02,680
AM Eastern, I'm hopping over to
Chatter and joining the room

681
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,800
called the Morning Chatter and
I'm doing an hour there every

682
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,880
Friday at least for the next few
weeks.

683
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,000
I'm testing this because I don't
know if I have the mental

684
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,680
capacity to take it on, but I
want to give it a try because I

685
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,840
really want to be a bigger part
of the community over there.

686
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,680
So you can join me.
I've put, I've shared a link

687
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,320
here live.
Come join me there.

688
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,360
And if you want more information
on Chatter, we'll put a link to

689
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:31,440
chatter social and you can check
out what they're doing there.

690
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:35,240
It's like a clubhouse on
steroids is what as how I

691
00:39:35,240 --> 00:39:37,360
describe it.
With that, by the way, just

692
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,120
wanted to shout out that Nick
had put in the chat.

693
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,240
Are there any non AI tools
anymore?

694
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,400
And I mean, I kind of alluded to
that at the beginning when we

695
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,760
started this conversation that
most tools these days have some

696
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:53,040
kind of AI built into it anyway,
at least the software tools and

697
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:54,720
now a lot of hardware tools as
well.

698
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:58,360
And thank you to Jinnade, who
pointed out Ecam Live and

699
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,480
Streamdeck are a couple of those
tools that are popular for

700
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,520
content creators and aren't
really AI.

701
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,280
Tools, so go check those out as
well.

702
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,920
Great conversation around tools.
Let's dig into our wins from the

703
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:13,760
week.
If you are in the audience right

704
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,000
now, come on up.
Come share your wins from this

705
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,760
week.
Chris Baglio.

706
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,400
That means you can come up and
share that your Giants kicked

707
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:25,000
the Eagles butts last night.
Thank you, Giants.

708
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:30,920
I'm a big fan of football, and
the NFC East is my team, the

709
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,920
Washington Commander.
So I love seeing the Eagles lose

710
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,200
out of all that, The teams in
that in that division love

711
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,400
seeing the Eagles lose.
And Giants are probably my

712
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,440
second team if I'm going to
cheer for an NFC East team.

713
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:45,480
So congratulations, Chris.
Sorry to derail us.

714
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:47,960
Well, thank you very much.
I'm very happy.

715
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,920
Anytime we could beat a division
rival, I forgot what winning

716
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:51,480
felt like.
So.

717
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,800
This is nice.
They looked like a great team.

718
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:57,000
And I have Scataboo on my
fantasy team.

719
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,800
He delivered for me yesterday.
All right.

720
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,880
Oh, and Alex, I know you're a
Giants fan too.

721
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:03,440
I saw you just flash your mic.
Yes.

722
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,240
So congratulations to you too,
Alex.

723
00:41:05,240 --> 00:41:07,000
All right, let's share some wins
from our week.

724
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,440
Let's start with some of our
guests on stage, starting with

725
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,320
Janae, who I just mentioned a
moment ago.

726
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,600
Janae, good morning.
Please share a win or two from

727
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,520
your week.
Good morning.

728
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,120
Good morning.
Got to meet a good friend of

729
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:21,760
mine yesterday.
They.

730
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,800
Traveled all over.
From all the way from Pakistan.

731
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,760
We've been working together for
the past six years, so got to

732
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,760
meet them.
And I can't wait for this new

733
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:36,320
feature Job in Cam Live's going
to be featuring simultaneous

734
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,120
live streaming to vertical and
horizontal on YouTube.

735
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,160
So excited for that when it
drops.

736
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:42,680
But those are my wins.
Thank you.

737
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,520
Yeah, congratulations, Janae.
And I'm going to share a win

738
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:50,200
because it's related to Janae.
Janae has been working

739
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:54,160
feverishly behind the scenes,
working on all the video from

740
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,320
the Empowered Podcasting
Conference, and he's been

741
00:41:56,320 --> 00:42:00,600
chopping it up, editing it,
making it look better and sound

742
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,000
better.
And I got to watch some of my

743
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:07,360
keynote, my opening remarks from
the event.

744
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:11,320
And admittedly, it's challenging
to sit back and watch myself do

745
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,560
that.
I can listen to myself on a

746
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:16,040
podcast.
I can watch myself on a podcast,

747
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:20,520
but that's a that's a situation
that I don't see myself in as

748
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:22,920
often being up on a physical
stage.

749
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:24,720
And it's a little uncomfortable
to watch.

750
00:42:24,720 --> 00:42:29,640
So it's a muscle I need to
continue to flex to continue to

751
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,520
work out so that I can get a
little more comfortable doing it

752
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,520
because woof, it's hard.
OK.

753
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,400
But thank you, Janae.
Appreciate you doing all that

754
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,680
work for the Empowered
Podcasting community.

755
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:43,640
You are the man, Tim.
Speaking of Empowered Podcasting

756
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,520
community, welcome back to the
stage.

757
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:47,120
Please share any wins from your
week.

758
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:52,160
Hey Mark, it's been an
interesting week here because I

759
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:55,160
work for a three letter agency.
I'm at work right now not

760
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:59,760
getting paid, but that's OK
because again, because of

761
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,840
Empowered Podcasting and for
everything that you know, you've

762
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,480
taught me and inspired in me.
So my first client emailed me.

763
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:10,080
He was like, hey, I've got a
interview lined up with the

764
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,400
governor of Wyoming.
Can you make it on Tuesday?

765
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,560
Yes.
So.

766
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,320
So that's money coming in.
I have another potential

767
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:25,240
insulting client that we're in
talks right now to start up her

768
00:43:25,240 --> 00:43:30,400
podcast on African American
Women's Health in the spring.

769
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:35,200
So yay, the three letter agency
isn't paying me right now, but

770
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,880
my clients are.
So that's my win.

771
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:40,080
Congratulations, Tim.
Awesome.

772
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,720
Love hearing new business stuff
coming through for people.

773
00:43:43,720 --> 00:43:45,680
That's awesome.
Congratulations and thank you

774
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:50,040
for the for giving the props to
this community for assisting you

775
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:53,520
or at least empowering you to go
out there and make those wins

776
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,240
happen.
Congratulations to you, Tim, and

777
00:43:55,240 --> 00:43:58,320
thanks for continuing to come
back to the podcasting morning

778
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,120
chat.
It's been great having you join

779
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,440
us in the audience, joining us
on stage when you can.

780
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:06,560
You, you are a great member of
this community and a welcome

781
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:07,920
one.
Thanks for being here, Tim.

782
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,640
Chris, coming back to you, you
want to share some wins with us?

783
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,920
A couple wins.
One was last night, actually.

784
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,280
Got to do something that was
really, really cool.

785
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:23,360
With Radio Garden State, we
actually did a basically five

786
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:27,760
hours of radio broadcast from
the Stone Pony in Asbury Park

787
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,200
last night, which you know, for
anybody from New Jersey knows

788
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,880
that the Stone Pony legendary
club here, of course, you know,

789
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,080
all the affiliations of Bruce
and just the whole New Jersey,

790
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,160
you know, music scene.
So but it was great, it was a

791
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,960
charity event that we were
invited to be part of and I was

792
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,040
about all the bands thing.
It was just really great.

793
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:50,640
And so I kicked us off with like
a 90 minute show and then it was

794
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,040
great because we had the other
on air hosts involved.

795
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:58,240
So basically we did 4 shows
during that time, did interviews

796
00:44:58,240 --> 00:45:02,760
with a bunch of the organizers
and just it was just really

797
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,000
awesome.
I mean, Mike and I were like

798
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:08,400
just asking and glory last night
because it just felt so cool.

799
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:11,720
And it was just wild to be like,
wow, we're here at the Stone

800
00:45:11,720 --> 00:45:14,560
Pony, like totally doing our
thing broadcasting.

801
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:16,720
And so it was, it was just
really cool.

802
00:45:16,720 --> 00:45:21,040
And if anybody caught it, you
know, was live, we'll have all

803
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,480
the replays of all that stuff.
We'll be airing it and it'll be

804
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,240
on our Patreon and all that.
But it was just so cool.

805
00:45:26,240 --> 00:45:28,880
And again, that's, that's Radio
Garden State, if people.

806
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,640
Yeah, Radio Garden State.
And you can listen to it on

807
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,760
radiogardenstate.com.
We're also on the Odyssey app,

808
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,880
TuneIn app and radio.net, but we
are working on our own app.

809
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,480
It's it's in development.
So but in development hell, But

810
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,560
it's, it's coming, Chris.
And then I just wanted to say

811
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,560
though, real quick,
congratulations, especially

812
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:49,320
because I know you a little bit
and I know that radio has been

813
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:50,800
something that you've always
loved.

814
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,920
And, and now having this outlet,
Radio Garden State as an

815
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:57,320
Internet radio thing and doing
all these different events just

816
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:00,400
like a radio station would.
It's cool to see you doing it

817
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,720
and living that dream that I
know you've had for a while now.

818
00:46:03,720 --> 00:46:06,720
So congratulations to you.
Yeah, No, thank you very much.

819
00:46:06,720 --> 00:46:08,920
Yeah, it's great.
And I, I do.

820
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,840
I love it.
It's it's really cool.

821
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,440
And I'm glad, you know, I'm glad
Mike took the risk in the leap

822
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,240
and I'm, I'm happy to support
him in, in this, you know, in

823
00:46:17,240 --> 00:46:19,520
this endeavor.
Cause believe me, it takes a

824
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:20,960
lot.
It's, it's not cheap.

825
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,720
We're doing our best man.
We're totally DIY and punk

826
00:46:23,720 --> 00:46:25,240
rocking this thing.
It's working.

827
00:46:25,240 --> 00:46:27,320
You know, we're getting, and
we're averaging about 13,000

828
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,720
listeners a month now.
And you know, we're doing this

829
00:46:29,720 --> 00:46:32,880
with, with no money, no budget
and just just doing it.

830
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,880
So we got about 20 on air host
now and it's, it's amazing.

831
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,680
So really proud of what we've
accomplished in a short amount

832
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,120
of time, but but that's it.
I don't want to give up any more

833
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:42,400
time.
I'm going to pass the baton.

834
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,960
All right, awesome.
Congratulations again to Chris,

835
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:48,000
and we're going to go to Yvonne
next.

836
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:49,840
Yvonne, welcome back to the
stage.

837
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,800
Please share some wins with us.
Hey, I don't want to take up too

838
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:56,240
much time because I know you are
running out the door, but what

839
00:46:56,240 --> 00:46:58,920
brought me up was hearing you
talk about the work Janae is

840
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,280
doing on all that video.
And I just want to say, holy

841
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:06,800
cannoli, I can only imagine the
work that's going into that.

842
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,600
Janae.
And thank you again for doing

843
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,720
what you did at that conference.
That's amazing.

844
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:15,360
Gosh, I was thinking, well, what
are the wins this week?

845
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:19,320
First of all, I've got one kid
home for the weekend already and

846
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,440
another one coming in this
morning.

847
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:25,000
So so going to have a house full
this weekend.

848
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,280
I'm very excited about that.
Going to go see our my husband's

849
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,560
show that he directed.
We're all going up with some

850
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:35,560
friends on Saturday and coming
out of the conference.

851
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,480
I have to tell you, Mark,
somebody that I met at the

852
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:43,600
conference talked to somebody
else that I kind of know and she

853
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:49,160
does a like an event thing.
And now she we had a talk this

854
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:54,600
week and are in kind of thinking
about how I might get be part of

855
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:56,760
her conference.
So that's all I can say right

856
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:58,480
now.
As a photographer, can you say

857
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,880
that?
As a photographer and and a

858
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,840
panelist possibly.
So this is all in the works.

859
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,960
Like, you know, can't go into
too much detail, but just to

860
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:14,160
have something like that come
out of having gone to be there

861
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:18,520
in person, meeting somebody new
and, and all that, it was part

862
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,440
of the magic of the conference.
So thank you.

863
00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:20,720
Yeah.
And.

864
00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:24,840
I will take some credit for that
as our conference and I think

865
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,360
that's the power of going to
conferences in general.

866
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,560
I think that we make these
connections and there are

867
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,640
opportunities we never would
have expected often times

868
00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:37,440
because you know we're used to
being in our usual bubbles and

869
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,160
changing things up, doing
something different, networking

870
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,200
with people can often times
create some new opportunity.

871
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:47,120
So thank you for sharing that.
And I also was just had to point

872
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:51,000
out, Yvonne, that you had said,
gosh, I was thinking when you

873
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:52,600
asked, what are my wins this
week?

874
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:57,120
That's the point of this
discussion on Fridays is to

875
00:48:57,120 --> 00:49:00,560
encourage people to stop and
think about those wins because

876
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:05,520
it's easy for us not to.
I do this in part for myself,

877
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:10,120
selfishly, to keep myself
accountable for stopping to

878
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:13,000
smell the roses, stopping and
appreciating the things that I

879
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,920
was able to do this week.
So thank you for saying that,

880
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,960
even though I know you didn't
intend to, that wasn't the

881
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,200
intention to get this kind of
conversation.

882
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,880
But thank you for saying that.
I appreciate it, Yvonne.

883
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:27,040
It's 100% true though, it really
is.

884
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:29,760
We do have to stop and think
about what we actually

885
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,560
accomplished.
You know, and the other, the

886
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,800
other little side effect of
going to your conference is that

887
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:38,600
I saw another one coming up next
week in New York City.

888
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:42,200
It's got some people that I
really I'd love to have on my

889
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,960
podcast.
And so I signed up and I'm going

890
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,200
to an in person event in New
York next week.

891
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:50,240
Awesome Yvonne, that's awesome.
Congratulations.

892
00:49:50,240 --> 00:49:52,480
I think that's great because
then again, we've talked about

893
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,640
it that sometimes you feel a
little bit out of your comfort

894
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:58,360
zone doing those things.
So kudos to you for pushing

895
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:01,640
through and signing up and
seeing the benefit more than

896
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:06,040
focusing on the fear of being in
those big city, you know, those

897
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:08,240
big rooms with lots of people.
That's awesome.

898
00:50:08,240 --> 00:50:10,600
Congratulations.
I I got to keep it moving now

899
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:14,080
and go to some baza, some baza.
Good morning to you share some

900
00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:18,040
wins with us, Win for the week.
I don't know if it's it's kind

901
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:21,160
of half, half a win and kind of
like a sad note.

902
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:25,280
This week, Jen and I had the
chance and privilege to

903
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:30,280
interview Talib Jassir, who's
the founder for Afros and Audio,

904
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,640
which is coming up next week
from the 16th to the 19th.

905
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:35,160
Unfortunately, he spoke about
it.

906
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:40,000
It was a long conversation and
this will be the last one that

907
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:44,800
he will have as Afros and Audio.
He's going into other things.

908
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,040
I'm still believing that, you
know, I'm having formal that it

909
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:52,400
may continue, but that was a
great conversation that we had

910
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:56,840
and I'm hoping for great things.
So the win for the week is I

911
00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:02,800
guess we had a final podcast
conversation with Talib as he's

912
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,640
was the founder of Afroz and
Audio Festival, which has been

913
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:08,680
running for seven years.
More things to come in the.

914
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:10,600
Future, that's my win for the
week.

915
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:13,320
Yeah, what a great event.
And yeah, I had not heard about

916
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:15,440
that, so thank you for sharing
that, Sambaza.

917
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,720
And yeah, of seven years.
I know it's been a great event

918
00:51:18,720 --> 00:51:21,680
and I know that the Afrozen
audio community has really

919
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:23,480
appreciate it.
So yeah, it's a little sad to

920
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:25,080
hear it's going away and who
knows?

921
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,520
Yeah, like I'll hold out hope
with you that somebody maybe

922
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:30,880
will pick up the baton and keep
it going.

923
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:32,960
But thank you for sharing that
and awesome.

924
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:34,840
Congratulations on that
interview.

925
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,880
Sounds like a good one for sure.
Sambazi, you want to share the

926
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,240
name of that podcast so people
can go check it out if they're

927
00:51:40,240 --> 00:51:42,480
interested?
Thank you and y'all have a nice

928
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:43,480
weekend.
What?

929
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:46,000
What's the name of the podcast?
It's a collaborative.

930
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:49,600
Podcast so if you check on
Sambaza podcast, you'll find it

931
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,160
there or if you go to work by
accident, you'll find it there

932
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:54,560
because we both collaborate, Jen
and I, and we've been doing this

933
00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:57,400
for the last two years going on
to two years plus.

934
00:51:57,520 --> 00:51:58,800
Yeah, Yep.
Cool.

935
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:00,120
Thank you.
I just want to make sure those

936
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:04,240
who didn't know now Duke,
congratulations some baza and

937
00:52:04,240 --> 00:52:06,800
thank you for coming up.
I will let's do a rapid fire

938
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:08,440
'cause I really got a jet here
gang.

939
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,120
I got to figure this thing out
with Friday mornings.

940
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,040
One win for me.
I officially signed on a new

941
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:19,000
client this week who wants me to
consult on top of consult on the

942
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,720
project, I should say on top of
producing the show.

943
00:52:21,720 --> 00:52:26,000
So that's awesome.
And I've had a very promising,

944
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,800
I've actually had two very
promising Discovery calls this

945
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:31,280
week and more lined up next
week.

946
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:36,560
And I do have to say, several of
these conversations I'm having

947
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:40,000
all have a connection back to
the Empowered Podcasting

948
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,160
Conference in some way, shape or
form.

949
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:45,360
So that makes me feel good,
especially after putting so much

950
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:49,920
time and money into the event.
It looks like it's paying off a

951
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,640
bit.
So that's my win and I'm going

952
00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:55,400
to hand it to DRDR. You can pass
it along.

953
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:58,080
I know Ashley can't talk right
now.

954
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:00,480
Ashley, if that changes, put it
in the chat and we'll.

955
00:53:00,720 --> 00:53:03,400
Yeah, you can pass it to Sid
unless Ashley says something

956
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:07,760
different in the chat.
OK, so my win is that.

957
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:13,480
I have gone to a couple of
virtual network meetings and I

958
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:19,200
have found some opportunities to
do guest swaps with my clients,

959
00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:24,000
with people who I have met at
these at these virtual events,

960
00:53:24,240 --> 00:53:28,640
especially the ones on Thursday
that we promote all the time.

961
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:33,240
So, yeah, so that's my win.
And Sid, what you got Seriously

962
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,560
to Mark, I got a new client.
This week a coaching sales

963
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:39,240
leadership client this week
which is a lot of fun.

964
00:53:39,240 --> 00:53:43,280
I love working with sales
leaders and then we had three

965
00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:48,080
new sign ups for our mastermind
groups, which is always great to

966
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:51,360
see that growing because we're a
startup and every time somebody

967
00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:53,160
joins, it's kind of like, let's
ring the bell.

968
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:55,560
Celebrates.
That's really good.

969
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:56,720
So those are my wins for the
week.

970
00:53:56,720 --> 00:54:00,480
Matt, what you got, buddy?
I set myself up starting this

971
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:02,160
week.
With a few better habits and

972
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:05,120
better ways to manage my time.
And it seems to be working

973
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:08,480
because I managed to get to the
gym three times for a change.

974
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:12,880
So woo Hoo for that.
Congratulations, Matt.

975
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,840
That didn't sound terribly
enthusiastic there at the end.

976
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:20,360
Woo Hoo for that.
Have some AI insert some

977
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:22,440
intentional hyper.
There you go.

978
00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,280
That means you've just given me
permission to use your voice.

979
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:29,600
So now I will go ahead and run
it through AI and use it for all

980
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:32,160
sorts of fun things.
Thank you Matt, you do it.

981
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:35,920
People accuse me of sounding
like AI anyway, so I wouldn't go

982
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:37,200
that far.
Thank you, Matt.

983
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:42,320
Congratulations to you, to Sid,
to Dr. and Ashley, did you put

984
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:43,000
anything?
Yeah.

985
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:46,120
Her win is that she's being able
to podcast with the podcasting

986
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:50,200
morning chat and her podcast
Sunshine State Showcase while

987
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:53,680
attending the oh, I'm going to
butcher it.

988
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:56,560
Swanani.
Did I do that right?

989
00:54:56,720 --> 00:55:00,840
Roots rival music festival.
Congratulations, Ashley.

990
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:02,800
And look at that.
Here's a win for me.

991
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:03,920
Oh, were you going to say
something, Sid?

992
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:06,080
It's, you know, Swanee.
Swanee.

993
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,200
Thank you.
And there we go.

994
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:11,840
Congrats to me for getting this
done right at 8:00 AM.

995
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:13,800
So now I can pop over to the
other room.
