Downloads are a shitcoin. Views are a shitcoin. Subs are a shitcoin. There is no blueprint. You either build real relationships with an audience yourself or you forfeit your ability for me to take your complaints seriously.
When you get in your own car you can drive directly to where you want to be. Conversely, you don't get to buy a bus ticket, get on the bus and then complain that it doesn't drop you off anywhere great.
And as a listener of your podcast, is there a push from other listeners for you to add fancy vidiya podcast like Redbar?
Aside from 2 different asks over the past 5 years to put the donation segment further toward the end of the show, I haven't really had much from the audience in terms of a "push." Most directional changes or tweaks to format have been because we get an idea we wanna pursue and so we add it in.
The Metal Moment I suppose might be another example, but instead of a push it was more like the Rev showed up with a fully produced segment each week and we tried it out and it worked well so we kept with it.
The video aspect for us started last February when nostr:nprofile1qqsr5qnsn6medetj3vexljqqvy99gfdrgsp7hs9f52kdvrryz6gwkrsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qk8hxm helped us install the disco ball, and we're interested in improving the look and delivery of the video feed and I would say Nick the Rat, Redbar and the Satelite Skirmish shows we've been putting together are my 3 main inspiration sources for that particular push.
