00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:08.640
Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. My name is

00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:14.640
Jason Newland. This is let me boy you to sleep.

00:00:16.519 --> 00:00:19.600
Please only listen when you can safety close your eyes.

4
00:00:27.559 --> 00:00:34.880
It is the tenth of May twenty twenty five. It's

5
00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:40.840
four forty six pm in the afternoon. It's been a

6
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:48.759
glorious weather day really has. The birdies are happy in

7
00:00:48.799 --> 00:00:54.439
the trees. Well, I assume they're happy. I mean, I

8
00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:57.000
don't know if they make different sounds, if they're miserable.

9
00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:00.439
They might be having a really bad day. I don't know,

10
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:09.640
but I like to think they're happy tweeting along what else.

11
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.079
Just let you know. I do have a Facebook group

12
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:20.359
called Jason Newland's Boring Group, which is on It's on Facebook.

13
00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:27.000
Got two hundred and nineteen people on there now. It's

14
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:32.439
very popular. Yeah, it's I do worry sometimes that the

15
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:36.760
queuemight get a bit too long, but it's okay at

16
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:41.840
the moment, you know, people wanting to join, and like,

17
00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:46.319
it's just there's always that like concern that I'm going

18
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:49.879
to wake up and just like have all these requests

19
00:01:50.040 --> 00:01:53.920
I'm going to have to look at and say, oh, yeah,

20
00:01:55.319 --> 00:02:01.000
what happened. Yet, though I've also got YouTube channel at

21
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:05.640
Jason Newland. Oh yeah, I posted an old video from

22
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:11.280
two thy twelve onto my Jason Newland's boring group on

23
00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:17.039
Facebook and the picture quality is really bad, but it's

24
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:22.000
quite a funny video. It's called in brackets old video

25
00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:26.840
and then poo out a pooh out a difficult person

26
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:32.759
twenty twelve, and it's got a picture of me smiling.

27
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:36.919
I actually laugh while I'm doing it. It's just a

28
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:40.560
silly video, but it's yeah, you might want to have

29
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:42.800
a look at it. It's also on my YouTube channel.

30
00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:44.960
You can just search for it. I've got two and

31
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:52.080
a half thousand videos on there nowadays, though I'm mainly

32
00:02:52.360 --> 00:03:00.400
focusing on just uploading podcast episodes as opposed to filming videos.

33
00:03:02.599 --> 00:03:07.479
And what else is there to say? My YouTube channel

34
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:16.759
weren't my my website. I am continuously I'm looking. I

35
00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:19.199
want to put in my details, and I've put my

36
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:24.599
website and I'm actually typed in website. So my website,

37
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:29.199
I'll continuously make a little changes to try and make

38
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:38.400
it a bit better, a bit user friendly, mildly more useful.

39
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:43.120
All my recordings are on there. I've got a section

40
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:49.199
for podcasts, playlists, Contact form, link to the Facebook group,

41
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.719
the YouTube channel, click a link to PayPal, and then

42
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:56.199
I got a link to the Let Me boy this Sleep.

43
00:03:56.360 --> 00:04:01.360
I've just put it l mbt yts as a review page.

44
00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:05.400
Podcast apps, So if you want to search where I

45
00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:13.159
am on Apple Podcasts or SoundCloud or wherever, I've got

46
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:15.360
one for Q and a Friday which takes you to

47
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:19.360
the Q and a Friday page where not only can

48
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:24.040
you see all the latest recordings stream or download, play

49
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:28.160
or download, you could also ask me a question at

50
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:31.319
the top of that page. I've got another page for

51
00:04:31.399 --> 00:04:34.639
requested recordings, which you can ask me is basically a

52
00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:39.000
form it's all the latest Basically it's all my requested

53
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:41.759
recordings on there as well, which you can stream and download.

54
00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:45.160
But also there's a form that you can fill in

55
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:48.639
if you want. I've got a Deep Sleep whisper hypnosis one.

56
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:53.079
Why this hasn't barked all day and now it's barking.

57
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:57.399
Hear that? And now we've got I put the three

58
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:04.399
main maybe not the three main ones, but the two

59
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:10.480
main podcasts that I think people generally listen. So I've

60
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:14.639
got Apple Podcasts, I'm on it. All my podcasts on

61
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:19.360
Apple podcasts except Q and a Friday Spotify. All of

62
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:22.639
my podcasts are on Spotify, so they're also in the

63
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:32.040
menu the latest the latest flame is last week or

64
00:05:32.040 --> 00:05:36.600
the first of the second and mail or whatever it was.

65
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:42.920
Because now the tenth I deleted my SoundCloud accounts thinking

66
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:48.120
it was the right thing to do, And part of

67
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:53.199
the reason is because just financially I've got it's a

68
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:56.319
bit of a weird one. They've changed me over to

69
00:05:56.399 --> 00:06:00.600
a different payment scheme, which means I'm gonna have to

70
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:05.639
go between now and pretty much a month without any

71
00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:09.319
further money until I get paid. So I was trying

72
00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:12.720
to think ahead, like, okay, what can I cut costs?

73
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:17.519
But to be fair, only I've only saved myself twenty

74
00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:20.000
pound a month by getting rid of the SoundCloud so

75
00:06:20.040 --> 00:06:27.279
it wasn't really much much financial benefit. And then I

76
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:30.439
had quite a few people contact me where's your soundclad on?

77
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:38.040
So I managed to reinstate the main SoundCloud account, which

78
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:42.959
is SoundCloud dot com Hypnosis with music. I've actually got

79
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:46.600
a new image on there now, so I'm very excited about.

80
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:52.439
I don't know why. All it could do is actually

81
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:56.120
make people for like no, not no, it's mine now.

82
00:06:56.879 --> 00:07:01.519
But Hypnosis for Past, I just put it back to

83
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:06.720
what it was. Should I should I just put it

84
00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:09.319
back to what it was? I don't know. And then

85
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:15.319
I've got so that that was that was good. I

86
00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:20.399
mean when I uploaded that in the first few days,

87
00:07:21.319 --> 00:07:24.879
the first day, so I uploaded it on the eighth seventh,

88
00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:28.399
I kind of up managed to get it back online

89
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:32.240
one hundred and ninety five plays, the next day, five

90
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:35.600
hundred and sixty two plays, and then three hundred and

91
00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:41.079
seventeen in to day forty three. So it's I don't

92
00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:47.560
know what's happened. But then it's weird because on this

93
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:51.399
one so Hypnosis for Sleeping Deeply Jason Newland, I thought

94
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:54.879
i'd put like a banner and a different picture this year.

95
00:07:54.959 --> 00:08:01.879
Can see its SoundCloud because it's got a SoundCloud image anyway.

96
00:08:02.759 --> 00:08:05.560
There's four seven hundred and eighty seven tracks on there.

97
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:12.480
I got twenty nine followers, so but that wasn't enough.

98
00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:18.439
Then I've got people saying, where's the where's the other one?

99
00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:23.319
Where's it? Let me boy to sleep? And I was

100
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:27.839
struggling to get that back, I really was, because it

101
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:33.039
was SoundCloud just seemed to be making it more complicated.

102
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:35.360
They said, well, you got to send it from the

103
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:41.360
SoundCloud your SoundCloud account email. But when I tried to

104
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:44.799
do that, it said, there's no response to this email

105
00:08:44.840 --> 00:08:47.519
address that you're sending it. God sending it to the

106
00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:49.840
same email address that they were told telling me to

107
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:56.000
reply to. In the end, I managed to figure it

108
00:08:56.039 --> 00:08:59.679
out and I got my let Me Boy to Sleep

109
00:08:59.720 --> 00:09:05.480
back yesterday and I got one thousand, six hundred and

110
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:09.799
ninety tracks on there, sixty five followers, and it's all

111
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:16.559
up to date now. So I've uploaded all the latest

112
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:24.759
recordings to both of those SoundCloud podcasts, which is good

113
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:32.320
because it took a while to be fair my seconds.

114
00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:47.120
Mm hmmmm mm hmmm mmmmmm right, I'm just going to

115
00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:50.639
see what the stats are on this one oh a

116
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:55.000
bit better, so let me boards Sleep. I managed to

117
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:57.120
get it up on the ninth of May, which would

118
00:09:57.120 --> 00:10:02.080
be yesterday five hundred and twenty three plays and today

119
00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:07.120
two hundred and eighty six plays. So yeah, I normally

120
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:13.679
get between the two between the two, well between the

121
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.679
three between like Spreaker and sound Okay. On sound Clad,

122
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:25.879
I normally get around two hundred and fifty five hundred

123
00:10:25.960 --> 00:10:29.360
between the two of them, sometimes a lot more, sometimes

124
00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:32.000
like a few thousand, but generally on an average day.

125
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:37.799
I mean, I can work this out the last thirty

126
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:43.679
days six thousand, five hundred and eighty eight. So what's

127
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:46.360
that one, two, three, I was going to count the

128
00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:49.639
days in Okay, so it's a bit more than what

129
00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:52.360
I said. So it's a little bit more. So I'm

130
00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:59.039
averaging three to four hundred a day, plus I miss one, two, three,

131
00:10:59.399 --> 00:11:04.679
three days out three and a half days out right,

132
00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:08.200
so it varies. But I don't know six and a

133
00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:12.639
half thousand in thirty days. I don't know what that

134
00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:17.360
works out at a thousand of day. One hundred day

135
00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:26.440
would be three thousand, wouldn't it. Yeah, but they're bearing

136
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:30.720
them when I missed three. So if I go the

137
00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:37.759
last okay, if I do a custom range, I'm sure

138
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:43.679
everyone's excited about the answer to this question. Let's have

139
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:49.799
a look at April April, right, the whole of April

140
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:59.519
confirm eighty four hundred and thirty five. Okay, so it's

141
00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:03.679
quite that's the biggest day that was in April, but

142
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:08.399
the lowest day was ninety two, So it just it variates, really,

143
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:13.519
But we're looking eight so it's eight grand, eight thousand,

144
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:19.759
so I don't know. Three hundred just under three hundred

145
00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:25.000
a day, so between five and six hundred, maybe seven

146
00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:30.399
hundred a day for the SoundCloud and Spreaker I get.

147
00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:35.279
I don't know. I was kind of giving you an

148
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:39.639
idea because I know everyone's really interested in stats and aw,

149
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:47.759
you all can't get enough of it, So doing April okay?

150
00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:51.240
Is it May? It's April, isn't it okay? So last

151
00:12:51.240 --> 00:12:54.639
month was April. I got fifty three thousand, one hundred

152
00:12:54.639 --> 00:13:00.399
and sixty nine. Last month, I had a couple of

153
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:04.000
really this is on Spreaker. Throughout my other podcasts, I

154
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:06.799
had a couple of really bad days. So the worst

155
00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:11.639
day was six hundred and three, The second worst day

156
00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:15.480
was seven hundred and fifty six, No. Seven hundred and fifteen,

157
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:21.360
third worst seven hundred and fifty six, and the fourth

158
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:24.240
was seven hundred and ninety eight. But the best day

159
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:27.080
was four thousand, two hundred eights, the four thousand, three

160
00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:31.840
hundred and four, and the second best was three thousand,

161
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:35.320
six hundred and twenty, and then three thousand and sixty four,

162
00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:39.159
the third best, fourth best two hundred two, eight hundred

163
00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:42.879
and twenty two, and then two thousand, five hundred and twenty,

164
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.000
which was the eleventh, So twenty third of April four thousand,

165
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:50.600
three hundred and four, that was the best day of

166
00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:55.799
the month. So it's kind of hard to work it out.

167
00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.000
I mean, I would say between Spriaker and this SoundCloud

168
00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:09.879
looking average of two and a half, between two and

169
00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:14.799
three thousand a day, I suppose between the two of them.

170
00:14:14.840 --> 00:14:17.279
It's just it's a difficult one to work out, really,

171
00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:19.840
to be honest with you, because if I go back

172
00:14:19.879 --> 00:14:25.279
to the other podcast, so if I sign out of

173
00:14:25.320 --> 00:14:33.159
the I signed into the main podcast for Spreaker, it

174
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:36.440
might be it might be it might loud, it might

175
00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:59.679
be less, but I think is more madan now, oh blah, okay, right,

176
00:14:59.799 --> 00:15:02.639
w to me to do a little test, do a

177
00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:05.720
little test to make sure that I'm who I asked say,

178
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:14.639
I am not. Anyone's going to actually pretend to be me, right,

179
00:15:14.799 --> 00:15:19.200
So I do the last thirty days. Bearing in mind

180
00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:22.639
there was two days off eight thousand, six hundred and

181
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:29.080
nineteen on spreaker on SoundCloud. What was it on the

182
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:31.240
other one? Was there around the same was it? I

183
00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:41.919
don't know, so fifty fifty eight eighty eight, sixteen thousand,

184
00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:45.559
fifty six sixty thous it's about sixty thousand a month.

185
00:15:45.600 --> 00:15:48.679
I suppose no more than that, isn't it fifty seventy

186
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:54.799
About seventy thousand a month? I suppose sixteens Roughly, it's

187
00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:59.679
about seventy Roughly about seventy thousand downloads a month between

188
00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:03.840
the two between the three podcasts, or between the three

189
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:08.399
the SoundCloud and Speaker and the different podcasts have gone Spreaker,

190
00:16:10.639 --> 00:16:14.480
so there's still not a lot. Seventy thousand. It's not

191
00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:20.200
even a million a year. It's I'm not moaning, but

192
00:16:20.679 --> 00:16:24.519
I am moaning. On I let's face, I'm moaning. I mean,

193
00:16:24.559 --> 00:16:31.759
if you look for the last since last June, what

194
00:16:39.440 --> 00:16:46.879
when I had my whole this is weird, okay, And

195
00:16:46.919 --> 00:16:49.679
I do wonder why I don't just go back to

196
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:58.120
doing this because I was getting so many more Why

197
00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:05.680
am I even with Spreaker. Honestly, I was getting so

198
00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:11.319
many more plays when I was on SoundCloud for all

199
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:14.359
my podcasts, when I just had everything connected to my

200
00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:21.240
SoundCloud podcast, So you might think, yeah, yeah, BlimE me,

201
00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:24.039
you wouldn't believe it compared to what I'm getting now,

202
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:31.240
it's almost I didn't realize how embarrassing it was. I'm

203
00:17:31.240 --> 00:17:34.519
a little embarrassed. I'll be honest, I am a little

204
00:17:34.519 --> 00:17:44.480
bit a little bit. So I had speaker, I had,

205
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:47.880
I was on speaker for not the whole of twenty

206
00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:55.559
twenty four. So I do a custom range. Whoa twenty

207
00:17:55.960 --> 00:18:06.200
and fifteen? Blimey, it started off twenty fifteen. I think

208
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:09.880
it's because I've been I've been on SoundCloud for decades,

209
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:14.839
to be fair. So yeah, so what two thousand, Let's

210
00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:21.519
go for twenty twenty four, twenty twenty four. But life

211
00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:24.680
is weird. It's like I wonder why I started there.

212
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:29.599
Perhaps it was just going back to when I started

213
00:18:29.680 --> 00:18:33.880
being on there to twenty twenty four. So let's started

214
00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:47.160
one to confirm. Oh no, custom range twenty twenty four

215
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:55.440
to now. So let's see if this will give it

216
00:18:55.480 --> 00:19:00.640
to me? Will this give it me? There's no tenth

217
00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:13.440
for May really all time? Why can't I do that anyway?

218
00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:18.519
In June? So it's given me a year. Last June

219
00:19:18.799 --> 00:19:23.160
twenty twenty four, I had all my podcasts on Spreaker.

220
00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:30.960
I had basically I had all my podcasts focused on

221
00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:39.200
other than to let me Boily sleep ones. I had

222
00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:44.160
them more focused on the one Spreaker SoundCloud app, on

223
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:52.119
the one SoundCloud account. And in June last year, I

224
00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:55.079
had three hundred and eighty two thousand, eight hundred and

225
00:19:55.079 --> 00:20:04.200
twenty nine plays, and in July. See, I don't know

226
00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:09.240
when I started, When did I start? Last twelve months,

227
00:20:09.240 --> 00:20:17.119
when did I start having my podcasts on to Okay?

228
00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:25.559
It was September. I moved back to Spreaker. It was September,

229
00:20:26.519 --> 00:20:31.640
so admittedly that was a really good month. The next month,

230
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:36.039
which was so July August. These are the two months

231
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:43.200
and I was half in speaker. Wow. Yeah, one hundred

232
00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:46.079
and fifty, four hundred and forty four plays in July

233
00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:50.000
last year, one hundred and six, eight hundred and fifteen.

234
00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:55.680
That was August. So these are like million, well over

235
00:20:55.720 --> 00:20:59.119
a million a year based on this, I mean for

236
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:06.119
the whole that year, the last year, bearing in mind

237
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:15.200
that I'm only getting but last month I got nine thousand,

238
00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:19.519
six hundred and sixty plays March nine thousand and seventy

239
00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:23.960
eight thousand, seven hundred and February ten, two hundred and

240
00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:27.599
twenty three, So it gives you know I wasn't getting

241
00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:34.480
But in October, I was getting one thousand and five,

242
00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:40.920
one hundred and fifty seven thousand. I was still half half.

243
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:44.759
That's what it was. In November I completely changed all

244
00:21:44.759 --> 00:21:51.319
the way over and it went down halfway through. And yeah, December,

245
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:57.079
December was busy anyway, So it's oh no, I think

246
00:21:57.119 --> 00:22:00.960
I went back again. I went half back. BlimE me,

247
00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:03.359
I'm going to change it all back to just going

248
00:22:03.400 --> 00:22:08.400
to SoundCloud. I might as well, might I mean, what

249
00:22:08.400 --> 00:22:11.920
what is the point in if I'm getting more listeners

250
00:22:12.119 --> 00:22:17.440
on SoundCloud? I posted my stuff on there, and all

251
00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:25.079
my stuff is posted on there anyway, what do you think?

252
00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:33.480
Any ideas, any ideas, any any opinions, lah blah blah lah.

253
00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:40.000
It's just weird to look back and think, you know

254
00:22:40.039 --> 00:22:47.119
what I've this, I was reaching more people before. I

255
00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:56.519
just I don't know. I like both three hundred and

256
00:22:56.519 --> 00:23:00.960
eighty two thousand. It wasn't just that. That's kind of

257
00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:04.279
bugged me a little bit is the amount of plays

258
00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:09.079
I've got on some of my recordings. So two nine

259
00:23:09.160 --> 00:23:12.200
hundred and ten plays my Q and A Friday one

260
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:17.960
one three seven and one thousand, six hundred and forty

261
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:25.000
one for another one Let me Boys, Sleep two four

262
00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:28.200
hundred and fifty eight plays for another one let me

263
00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:32.680
boardly Sleep in August last year two thousand and five

264
00:23:32.720 --> 00:23:37.359
hundred and seventy seven for Q and a Friday nine

265
00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:42.920
hundred and forty one for Healing Thursday. The thing is right,

266
00:23:44.559 --> 00:23:49.400
I don't get individual recordings, don't get thousands of plays

267
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:59.599
anymore when I'm on Speaker, which is making me wonder

268
00:24:00.839 --> 00:24:04.079
why am I in Speaker? You know what, I'm going

269
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:07.079
to do this while I'm on the phone. I nearly

270
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:09.400
said on the phone, I'm going to do this while

271
00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:12.599
I'm on the making this record, and I'm going to

272
00:24:12.640 --> 00:24:21.359
go through the process of making these changes. Now, I

273
00:24:21.359 --> 00:24:24.200
don't think I have to worry too much because first

274
00:24:24.240 --> 00:24:30.079
of all, I will change the feed so that the

275
00:24:31.920 --> 00:24:38.680
how many people realistically are actually going to speaker, you know,

276
00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:42.079
if we really look into it, like really looking too it.

277
00:24:44.240 --> 00:24:48.079
So how many, even in the last thirty days, how

278
00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:54.640
many people have been listening directly on Speaker one hundred

279
00:24:54.640 --> 00:25:02.519
and seventy two compared to Apple Podcast four hundred forty,

280
00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:09.880
nine hundred and forty seven and Spotify on Spreaker three

281
00:25:09.960 --> 00:25:13.160
hundred and two. Now, I know a lot more people

282
00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:17.519
listen to me on on Spotify than I can you

283
00:25:17.519 --> 00:25:28.480
know because they listened to the SoundCloud one oh, so

284
00:25:30.359 --> 00:25:35.359
let's go for the whole, the last twelve months. So

285
00:25:35.440 --> 00:25:38.960
two hundred and forty and twenty three that's what I got.

286
00:25:39.039 --> 00:25:49.799
Can you imagine twelve months? Admittedly, May, May, June, July, August,

287
00:25:50.960 --> 00:25:54.240
I didn't really have anything on spreaker, September a little bit,

288
00:25:54.400 --> 00:26:00.279
October little bit, then November properly, so it was kind

289
00:26:00.279 --> 00:26:04.599
of like half half in September and October. So we're

290
00:26:04.599 --> 00:26:07.519
going one, two, three, four five, So six months really,

291
00:26:08.400 --> 00:26:12.960
but two hundred and forty thousand, it's four hundred. It's

292
00:26:13.000 --> 00:26:18.359
not even half a million a year. I was getting

293
00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:23.640
that in a month four years ago. And I'm not

294
00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:27.640
saying that in a bittery way. I'm just no, And

295
00:26:27.720 --> 00:26:33.319
that was bitter. Yeah, it wasn't sweet. I'm jealous of myself,

296
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:35.799
That's what it is. I'm jealous of my older self.

297
00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:40.000
But in all fairness, I mean it's good to say that.

298
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:43.200
I think it was during a period where people weren't

299
00:26:43.200 --> 00:26:47.599
allowed to lead their houses, so I kind of had

300
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:51.839
a captive audience kind of back then. I had no

301
00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:59.160
idea how people found me, but they did, and I'm

302
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:03.000
grateful rate forward that they did find me. The thing

303
00:27:03.119 --> 00:27:09.839
is this all because it's costing me fifty fifty fifty

304
00:27:09.920 --> 00:27:14.599
fifty fifty fifty fifty what's it? What's the other fifty

305
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:22.160
pound for? I might get rid of the website for

306
00:27:22.160 --> 00:27:26.599
a little while until I yeah, I might get I

307
00:27:26.680 --> 00:27:30.079
might close the website down until I get my finances sorted.

308
00:27:30.599 --> 00:27:37.079
So that'll be a that'll be a I don't think

309
00:27:37.119 --> 00:27:39.799
the way it is. I mean, I don't get a

310
00:27:39.839 --> 00:27:46.920
lot of If this sounds chaotic, just need to just

311
00:27:46.960 --> 00:27:51.160
assure you that because it is. No, it's it's just

312
00:27:51.440 --> 00:27:54.119
I'm just thinking this. I'm just thinking out loud, That's

313
00:27:54.160 --> 00:27:57.519
all it is. I don't get a huge amount of

314
00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:02.759
people visiting my website and should we go for the

315
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:09.279
last month, the last twelve months? Okay, no one else

316
00:28:09.279 --> 00:28:11.759
in the world probably would tell you this stuff about

317
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:15.599
their websites. They try and make out well so popular.

318
00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:20.440
I get millions millions of viewers to my website and

319
00:28:20.680 --> 00:28:26.400
visits to my website every single minute. I don't. Although

320
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:29.839
I was watching one of my old videos from two

321
00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:35.319
thousand and ten where I'm talking about getting a couple

322
00:28:35.319 --> 00:28:40.799
of hundred thousand visits to my website a year. So

323
00:28:40.839 --> 00:28:43.119
my website back then was way more popular than it

324
00:28:43.160 --> 00:28:52.119
is now. And I don't know why. Yeah, strange in it.

325
00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:58.319
So I must have been doing something something, well, something right.

326
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:05.599
Even I would argue, not like fully argue. I wouldn't.

327
00:29:06.119 --> 00:29:08.839
I wouldn't stand up, you know, I wouldn't. Wouldn't be

328
00:29:08.839 --> 00:29:15.480
that that important to me. I wouldn't. Yeah, I wouldn't.

329
00:29:16.359 --> 00:29:21.039
I wouldn't argue. Really, I wouldn't argue. But I spent

330
00:29:21.119 --> 00:29:25.039
too much time on that talking about arguing. I wouldn't

331
00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:32.400
argue that I forgot what I wouldn't argue about. Oh well,

332
00:29:33.400 --> 00:29:35.960
I mean, so I've had one point four I've had

333
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:41.160
two thousand total visits in the last twelve months now.

334
00:29:42.200 --> 00:29:53.039
Admittedly those last twelve months have been since January, oh

335
00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:56.359
pretty much since February, so it hasn't been The last

336
00:29:56.359 --> 00:30:01.839
twelve months has been March, April May through three months.

337
00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:05.480
So yeah, this is not really you know, I can't

338
00:30:05.519 --> 00:30:10.960
really if I say ninety one days, Yeah, that's kind

339
00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:14.240
of how long it's been three six ninety one, So

340
00:30:14.400 --> 00:30:22.960
two thousand views perse visit, three views of the web

341
00:30:23.119 --> 00:30:26.960
of the pages per visit three three page views per visit,

342
00:30:27.880 --> 00:30:32.400
total page views five point about six thousand page views,

343
00:30:35.240 --> 00:30:40.960
and the most popular visit is just the main page

344
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:49.880
unique ex Okay and ironically, which never used to be

345
00:30:49.920 --> 00:30:56.000
the case going back centuries, United Kingdom is the top

346
00:30:56.160 --> 00:30:59.519
list of people visiting my websites. So I've got five

347
00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:04.200
hundred seven according to this, five hundred and seven unique

348
00:31:04.279 --> 00:31:15.599
visitors from the UK, four hundred and ninety unique visitors

349
00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:19.440
from United States, one hundred and twenty three from Australia,

350
00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:30.799
thirty from Switzerland, Canada twenty nine, Spain twenty So I'm

351
00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:38.720
thinking perhaps I should get rid of that website. Do

352
00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:42.440
I need a website? Really? Do I? I don't know.

353
00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:45.920
I thought it was good to have a website. Just

354
00:31:46.920 --> 00:31:52.359
maybe it's not needed, right Ben Day. Ben's just posted

355
00:31:52.400 --> 00:31:58.640
a comment. This is from my pooh out a Difficult

356
00:31:58.680 --> 00:32:01.880
Person video. Ben's says, you look so different, l L

357
00:32:02.400 --> 00:32:06.559
you've aged well, Lad, you know what's weird, because I

358
00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:09.880
mean it's not a clear picture, because it's I'm basically

359
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:14.000
at that time I was living in Okay, not a dungeon.

360
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:17.920
Bob was underground. It was horrible. There was no light,

361
00:32:18.119 --> 00:32:21.039
no natural light coming in at all because it was

362
00:32:21.039 --> 00:32:28.200
below ground, so it was I had to have these

363
00:32:28.279 --> 00:32:32.119
lights on and the camera wasn't very good that back then.

364
00:32:34.240 --> 00:32:37.200
I mean it's still got probably got a few thousand

365
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:42.079
views on YouTube at the time, but it was just Yeah,

366
00:32:42.519 --> 00:32:45.759
you can make out from the image or from the

367
00:32:45.839 --> 00:32:51.799
video that I have pretty much no gray hairs, or

368
00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:57.519
if I do have, its minimal like minimal. And I

369
00:32:57.519 --> 00:33:00.359
think it was more noticeable for me when I look

370
00:33:00.400 --> 00:33:02.720
at it is the lack of gray hairs in my

371
00:33:02.799 --> 00:33:12.160
beard and also smiling, and i've from the looks of it,

372
00:33:14.039 --> 00:33:18.240
are way less. I probably didn't, it's just the angle

373
00:33:18.279 --> 00:33:25.240
of it. But it's strange and young girl. When you

374
00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:29.599
think two thousand, this piced this poot a difficult person

375
00:33:30.559 --> 00:33:36.759
was twenty twelve, so that's thirteen years ago. It would

376
00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:38.640
have been shortly after I moved in there, so I

377
00:33:38.680 --> 00:33:43.119
probably was lighter because I put on I did put

378
00:33:43.119 --> 00:33:47.680
on a bit of weight. I think once I started

379
00:33:47.680 --> 00:33:52.440
taking medication. I think the in about twenty thirteen fourteen weather,

380
00:33:52.759 --> 00:33:56.559
I think my weight did go up a bit, which

381
00:33:57.160 --> 00:34:02.759
can apparently can happen. So yeah, I'm always looking for

382
00:34:02.880 --> 00:34:11.280
ways to not take responsibility if it's all possible. Oh, yes,

383
00:34:17.360 --> 00:34:21.320
that's all. What should I do? You don't normally get

384
00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:27.199
to see me in this mode of because I'm doing

385
00:34:27.239 --> 00:34:29.719
this to try and the more people I reach, the

386
00:34:29.719 --> 00:34:32.320
more people I can help. That's the bottom line. It's

387
00:34:32.400 --> 00:34:47.719
not about anything else but that. M h m hm hm. Okay,

388
00:34:48.679 --> 00:34:56.880
So what I'll do. Here's here's the process. I can

389
00:34:56.960 --> 00:35:02.559
turn it back, but here's the process I'm going to do,

390
00:35:03.639 --> 00:35:06.760
and they'll both be running at the same time in

391
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:10.800
a sense. In a sense. But what I need to

392
00:35:10.800 --> 00:35:17.800
do is settings. Where's are settings? I don't want to

393
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:23.960
delete my account, plan and billing info. So I'm basically

394
00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:30.880
on the in command before your before your subscription term expires,

395
00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:39.679
Speaker will regularly renew your plan. You will will regularly

396
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:47.840
renew your plan, so I can cancel subscription. So it

397
00:35:47.880 --> 00:35:53.280
costs me fifty fifty dollars a month at the moment,

398
00:35:55.119 --> 00:35:59.360
and that's with a fifty percent off discount code. So

399
00:35:59.360 --> 00:36:14.760
it should be oh is it no? What free one

400
00:36:14.840 --> 00:36:25.440
month for the anchor? Right? So why I'm on the

401
00:36:25.480 --> 00:36:36.360
anchor man pro right? Anyway, it's costing me fifty dollars

402
00:36:36.440 --> 00:36:40.559
a month for Speakers, So I'll do if I cancel

403
00:36:40.599 --> 00:36:45.840
a subscription, I understand I don't want to continue with

404
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:51.440
my podcast anymore. Other if I just put can't afford it,

405
00:36:51.719 --> 00:36:56.199
maybe they'll give me a discount and cancel pro plan

406
00:36:57.599 --> 00:37:03.519
So it councels on June second, So it's not really

407
00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:07.519
going to make a huge difference. But then I'm not

408
00:37:07.679 --> 00:37:12.519
being blind me. I've been with them for so many,

409
00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:18.239
thousands of years. I'll tell you when I first started

410
00:37:18.440 --> 00:37:25.039
with Speaker the thirteenth of October twenty eighteen, and at

411
00:37:25.079 --> 00:37:28.760
the time I was paying five pounds ninety nine a month.

412
00:37:30.079 --> 00:37:36.960
Horace is here you a Horace? Who I Horace? Hello?

413
00:37:37.559 --> 00:37:43.679
He looked at me, Hello, Hello, Horace. Right's go on.

414
00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:47.000
He likes to just come and saale and then he

415
00:37:47.079 --> 00:37:53.079
goes He's been doing that for ten years. So I

416
00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:57.639
paid five ninety nine a month in October the twenty

417
00:37:57.719 --> 00:38:04.599
first canceled it don't uh. And then I went back

418
00:38:07.239 --> 00:38:11.679
and I was paying thirteen ninety nine a month because

419
00:38:11.679 --> 00:38:15.719
I got a discount. And then I was paying twenty

420
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:20.400
one ninety three a month in January nine, twenty nineteen.

421
00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:24.719
Then February twenty nineteen, I was paying thirty four ninety

422
00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:36.639
nine a month, and then thirty four ninety nine yeap,

423
00:38:37.360 --> 00:38:41.840
So all the way through twoenty nineteen, I was paying

424
00:38:42.360 --> 00:38:45.199
thirty four ninety nine a month. And then because I

425
00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:48.960
had so many recordings, I had to upgrade. So in

426
00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:54.960
August twoenty nineteen, No, yeah, August twenty nineteen I started

427
00:38:54.960 --> 00:38:59.840
getting paid. Started bill in Oh. No, I paid nineteen

428
00:39:00.039 --> 00:39:06.199
nine dollars for the customized mobile app for Android. Ooh.

429
00:39:08.280 --> 00:39:10.760
That was on the April first, August the first, and

430
00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:15.760
then August the fifteenth, my recurrent payment didn't go through

431
00:39:15.760 --> 00:39:18.599
because it was not enough money in my bank account. Oh,

432
00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:21.800
and then the next day it was in so thirty

433
00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:27.119
four ninety nine. And it happened to same the next month,

434
00:39:29.639 --> 00:39:37.400
so twenty nineteen, thirty four ninety nine, October November. So

435
00:39:37.599 --> 00:39:41.800
November it went up to forty four pounds one pence.

436
00:39:43.079 --> 00:39:48.840
Then December it went up to seventy two dollars because

437
00:39:48.880 --> 00:39:54.840
of the increase in space I was using, really, so

438
00:39:55.079 --> 00:40:05.159
seventy two dollars through twoenty twenty, and then yeah, that

439
00:40:05.239 --> 00:40:09.760
was with a discount as well. And then from November

440
00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:13.679
twenty twenty, I was paying one hundred and twenty dollars

441
00:40:13.760 --> 00:40:18.199
a month, so my discount ran out, so I was

442
00:40:18.199 --> 00:40:21.400
paying one hundred and twenty dollars all the way through

443
00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:33.119
twoenty twenty one, wow BlimE me, And then so all

444
00:40:33.159 --> 00:40:43.199
the way through twenty twenty two, two thousy twenty three

445
00:40:43.559 --> 00:40:58.440
until okay. I canceled in November twenty twenty three because

446
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:06.320
I canceled an October twenty twenty three because they'd taken

447
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:10.280
loads of my stuff off because it had music. And

448
00:41:10.320 --> 00:41:12.280
I went back and I canceled it again because I

449
00:41:12.320 --> 00:41:16.320
was just annoyed because they changed the rules again and

450
00:41:16.960 --> 00:41:19.760
first of all, it couldn't have loud long periods of music,

451
00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:25.599
then couldn't have any background music at all. Just they

452
00:41:25.679 --> 00:41:27.519
kept missing it up. So I went back on a

453
00:41:27.599 --> 00:41:33.400
lower plan ten pounds a month in February twenty twenty four,

454
00:41:41.440 --> 00:41:44.159
and then I ended up June twenty twenty four ten

455
00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:49.679
pounds ten dollars, August twenty twenty four, twenty dollars, September

456
00:41:49.719 --> 00:41:54.000
twenty twenty four to twenty dollars. I got a discount,

457
00:41:54.920 --> 00:41:58.679
so I canceled it in October twenty twenty four, went

458
00:41:58.719 --> 00:42:01.960
back with a discount, got it down to fifteen dollars

459
00:42:02.639 --> 00:42:07.159
then I canceled again, and then I came back in

460
00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:13.360
December twenty dollars twenty twenty four, January twenty twenty five,

461
00:42:13.480 --> 00:42:23.920
twenty and February to twenty five dollars March twenty five

462
00:42:24.159 --> 00:42:29.679
April twenty five this year May twenty twenty five fifty,

463
00:42:29.880 --> 00:42:32.119
so I had to go up. I got yeah, I've

464
00:42:32.119 --> 00:42:36.559
got fifty percent discountss now it's fifty and now today

465
00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:50.239
it councelled. So what I might do? Get rid of

466
00:42:50.239 --> 00:42:52.480
the website for a while. Do I need the website?

467
00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:58.199
Is it important? Is it relevant? I do like the website,

468
00:42:59.000 --> 00:43:03.440
but at the same time, I don't know how how

469
00:43:03.519 --> 00:43:08.400
useful it is based on how many people visit. You know,

470
00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:13.440
you know what I mean. You know what I mean.

471
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:21.719
Uh uh uh uh several. I'm just going to try

472
00:43:21.760 --> 00:43:43.719
and do something here. Mm hmmmmh right, okay, So I'm

473
00:43:43.719 --> 00:43:52.480
going to do is do do do do do do

474
00:43:52.480 --> 00:44:01.840
do do do do do do all files. Well, I'll

475
00:44:01.880 --> 00:44:10.599
do it all right done. So here's my plan. I'm

476
00:44:10.639 --> 00:44:16.519
going to change over. So if I'm gonna delete the

477
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:22.199
go to my okay plan, So what bill in It's

478
00:44:22.280 --> 00:44:27.679
cost me fifty five dollars a month four. What I

479
00:44:27.719 --> 00:44:35.719
can do. What I can do actually is change change

480
00:44:35.880 --> 00:44:45.559
the plan. So what I'd do is one website, one

481
00:44:46.159 --> 00:44:50.000
one website and one podcast because at the moment, I've

482
00:44:50.000 --> 00:44:53.079
got one website with two hundred and fifty podcasts available

483
00:44:53.719 --> 00:44:56.960
because I was just putting all the different podcasts in

484
00:44:57.519 --> 00:45:02.320
and but this makes it a little bit easier. Maybe,

485
00:45:04.000 --> 00:45:06.400
so I'll just take the podcast off, just have one

486
00:45:06.440 --> 00:45:10.119
podcast on there and the rest can.

487
00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:18.639
I don't know, I don't know. Would you think, I

488
00:45:18.679 --> 00:45:24.440
don't know. I'm a little bit, you know, a bit

489
00:45:28.440 --> 00:45:35.960
I don't know. So you could change it. Change it

490
00:45:36.000 --> 00:45:41.079
so it'll change your next payment zero June the second

491
00:45:41.559 --> 00:45:45.199
so day if I confirm, confirm, you have too many

492
00:45:45.239 --> 00:45:51.400
podcasts to select this plan, remove some podcasts to continue.

493
00:45:52.599 --> 00:45:57.480
All right, So what I'll do is I'll have to

494
00:45:57.559 --> 00:46:07.639
delete all the podcasts. Only have one podcast. Hmmm, I mean,

495
00:46:07.639 --> 00:46:10.679
I only really need one podcast, but I might not

496
00:46:10.719 --> 00:46:16.039
really even need the website. Maybe I just cancel a website. Yeah,

497
00:46:16.079 --> 00:46:21.960
I should cancel a website. So what we do accounts

498
00:46:22.039 --> 00:46:31.519
and settings bill in bill in history. So I'm gonna

499
00:46:31.519 --> 00:46:35.320
have it before. But I started off this year for

500
00:46:35.320 --> 00:46:41.199
a pound January thirtieth, twenty twenty five, gradually went up

501
00:46:41.199 --> 00:46:43.559
and up and up and up and up and up

502
00:46:43.559 --> 00:46:48.679
and up and up, and it's gonna be now fifty

503
00:46:48.719 --> 00:46:54.320
five pound. I just had a phone call just then.

504
00:46:55.800 --> 00:47:03.679
A neighbor that's called me said, I've had a delivery. Yeah,

505
00:47:04.079 --> 00:47:10.039
what are you telling me? But it's outside of the door. Yeah,

506
00:47:10.280 --> 00:47:15.079
Usually deliveries are usually left outside the door. Can you

507
00:47:15.119 --> 00:47:20.360
look after it for me? Said? No? Oh please, I

508
00:47:20.440 --> 00:47:24.920
said no, I don't want to. Oh, you just collect

509
00:47:25.000 --> 00:47:28.199
it so no one steals it. I said no, I

510
00:47:28.239 --> 00:47:30.079
don't want to leave. I don't want to go outside.

511
00:47:30.480 --> 00:47:37.199
We're busy. And please be your best friend, I said,

512
00:47:37.199 --> 00:47:40.320
are you being serious? She said, what do you mean?

513
00:47:41.199 --> 00:47:42.760
I said, will you really be my best friend if

514
00:47:42.760 --> 00:47:48.400
I go and get it? Ah, well, I don't understand

515
00:47:48.400 --> 00:47:50.920
what you mean. No, you said you'll be my best friend?

516
00:47:51.440 --> 00:47:55.000
Is that a foam commitment? Is that a genuine promise

517
00:47:56.079 --> 00:47:58.559
that you will actually be my best friend? If I

518
00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:04.199
go and collect your package from the outside your flat,

519
00:48:06.079 --> 00:48:09.000
and you'll be in my life every every every day,

520
00:48:09.079 --> 00:48:13.719
and we'll talk about stuff and express feelings, and you

521
00:48:13.800 --> 00:48:18.840
know you'll support me and I'll support you. She said,

522
00:48:18.880 --> 00:48:20.679
forget about the package, that I don't care if someone

523
00:48:20.679 --> 00:48:32.880
steals it, and she hung up. So do I think

524
00:48:32.920 --> 00:48:35.800
what I need to do first? So I get rid

525
00:48:35.800 --> 00:48:38.519
of Facebook? Not getting rid of Facebook, I'm just deleting

526
00:48:38.519 --> 00:48:45.960
it from my screen and podcast page if I get

527
00:48:46.039 --> 00:48:52.920
rid of that, right Apple. It's actually quite weird because

528
00:48:52.960 --> 00:48:57.880
she phoned just as I was picking up the phone

529
00:48:58.519 --> 00:49:02.960
to look at it. Because when I when I log

530
00:49:03.039 --> 00:49:20.159
into Apple Podcast, Apple Apple Podcast Connect, when I look

531
00:49:20.199 --> 00:49:25.559
into that, as well as signing in, it also sends

532
00:49:25.559 --> 00:49:32.079
a thing to my mobile phone, which is good really

533
00:49:32.119 --> 00:49:38.760
that it does that. I'll remember me continue with password.

534
00:49:48.920 --> 00:49:56.239
I got so many different passwords, right. That was the

535
00:49:56.440 --> 00:50:02.719
noise of the phone to when people, I mean, hopefully

536
00:50:02.800 --> 00:50:04.800
doesn't happen anymore. I don't know. I'm not really around

537
00:50:04.840 --> 00:50:09.079
humans very often, but they'd have that that noise or

538
00:50:09.360 --> 00:50:12.400
do do do do? Do do do do every time

539
00:50:12.440 --> 00:50:16.320
a text came through, and it'd be going on for

540
00:50:16.639 --> 00:50:25.639
hours constantly, not with me. It didn't. I can't allow it.

541
00:50:25.840 --> 00:50:28.800
I can't allow it. That's a new thing. Young people

542
00:50:28.800 --> 00:50:33.280
allow it. So that's a new kind of phrase that

543
00:50:33.519 --> 00:50:41.880
apparently some younger people are saying, allow it. What I said,

544
00:50:42.079 --> 00:50:47.840
I want a new bike. Allow it is okay, in

545
00:50:47.920 --> 00:50:53.559
what world does that work? Right? So I'm now into

546
00:50:53.719 --> 00:50:58.519
the So this is podcast connect, which is where all

547
00:50:58.559 --> 00:51:02.360
my Apple podcasts are. Bear in my mind this is

548
00:51:03.280 --> 00:51:11.760
this is kind of the the gold place. All of

549
00:51:11.800 --> 00:51:17.079
my Apple podcast all of my podcasts on Apple are

550
00:51:17.079 --> 00:51:20.639
connected by an r SS feed. I will tell you

551
00:51:20.639 --> 00:51:27.239
what that means. It's it's what's it called. I know

552
00:51:27.280 --> 00:51:32.440
what it is. I know what it means. It's really

553
00:51:32.679 --> 00:51:39.880
simple syindification RSS, really simple syndification. So what it does

554
00:51:40.320 --> 00:51:43.519
is I guess what it says on the tin. I

555
00:51:43.559 --> 00:51:46.599
suppose if it had a tin and there was a label.

556
00:51:48.400 --> 00:51:55.440
It's really oh there is. So each podcast on my

557
00:51:55.559 --> 00:52:12.559
Speaker podcast is connected to those ones. Now, ah, what

558
00:52:12.679 --> 00:52:15.400
I could do is what I did before. But I

559
00:52:15.400 --> 00:52:16.960
don't know if I want to go back to doing

560
00:52:17.000 --> 00:52:24.880
that again just because I will get more views or

561
00:52:24.880 --> 00:52:27.480
more listens, which is kind of the point. Isn't it

562
00:52:27.519 --> 00:52:32.199
really to reach a larger audience? For some reason, when

563
00:52:32.239 --> 00:52:39.000
I had all my podcasts directed towards SoundCloud, or all

564
00:52:39.000 --> 00:52:42.480
my podcasts were on SoundCloud and they were directed towards

565
00:52:43.960 --> 00:52:59.119
podcasts Connect or Apple podcasts, it pretty much. Yeah, it

566
00:52:59.239 --> 00:53:07.920
kind of did the job. I don't know. I don't know,

567
00:53:12.440 --> 00:53:17.559
because technically I don't really need lots of podcasts. I

568
00:53:17.599 --> 00:53:19.599
should be able to get by which just one shouldn't

569
00:53:19.639 --> 00:53:29.760
I really, but I tend to perhaps I could have both,

570
00:53:31.559 --> 00:53:36.719
have both but at the same time have one that's

571
00:53:36.800 --> 00:53:45.480
not working. Is it okay? Unless I had this SoundCloud?

572
00:53:47.800 --> 00:53:49.880
He was making weird noises. Just then I thought, is

573
00:53:49.920 --> 00:53:54.880
he okay? He's cleaning himself and he was just temporarily

574
00:53:54.920 --> 00:53:58.920
looking up trying to snatch her trying to bite a fly.

575
00:54:00.159 --> 00:54:02.079
He doesn't get modered up between the fly and is

576
00:54:02.119 --> 00:54:04.960
the bits he's cleaning, Otherwise it's going to be a

577
00:54:05.079 --> 00:54:14.079
vet visit. How did this happen? Mister new Land vin

578
00:54:14.079 --> 00:54:20.559
his daddy, Well, he was cleaning himself and there was

579
00:54:21.119 --> 00:54:25.239
a fly who has been hunting for about two days now,

580
00:54:27.639 --> 00:54:29.719
and he kept jumping up to catch the fly and

581
00:54:29.719 --> 00:54:34.039
then going back to lick himself, and then he forgot

582
00:54:35.239 --> 00:54:39.199
which one he was doing. Maybe the fly landed on

583
00:54:39.280 --> 00:54:45.159
the area that he was cleaning, possibly, and that's how

584
00:54:45.280 --> 00:54:53.239
he became a eunuch. So I could I could have?

585
00:54:53.239 --> 00:54:56.519
Could have? Could have? Could shall I should I just

586
00:54:56.599 --> 00:55:00.360
make the jump and go back to get and three

587
00:55:00.400 --> 00:55:08.440
hundred thousand downloads a month instead of the seventy that

588
00:55:08.480 --> 00:55:13.760
I get. Now, yeah, it makes sense, doesn't It really

589
00:55:15.440 --> 00:55:21.199
makes sense. It's a weird one. It's hard to kind of.

590
00:55:25.639 --> 00:55:28.960
I don't know. I don't know. So let's have a look.

591
00:55:29.039 --> 00:55:34.599
What is the settings? Where's the content? The RSS feed?

592
00:55:34.760 --> 00:55:42.119
There is, so I can literally change every single one

593
00:55:42.360 --> 00:55:46.679
except anything connected to let me boyd a sleep. What

594
00:55:46.760 --> 00:55:48.880
they let me boyd to sleep? Once they will be

595
00:55:49.239 --> 00:55:53.840
on the let me boyds asleep. Everything else will be

596
00:55:54.119 --> 00:56:00.599
on the hypnosis of sleeping deeply because that's where that's

597
00:56:00.639 --> 00:56:08.159
where everything is really Yeah, and then I suppose I

598
00:56:08.280 --> 00:56:14.920
could maybe try and get the speaker one down reduce

599
00:56:15.039 --> 00:56:30.400
the reduce m h yeah, I don't know, right, let's

600
00:56:30.400 --> 00:56:34.480
do it anyway, see what happens. This show does not

601
00:56:34.519 --> 00:56:43.119
contain third party content, so which is true. So let's go.

602
00:56:46.840 --> 00:56:58.320
But the problem is mm hmmmm mmm mm hmmm. Yeah,

603
00:56:58.840 --> 00:57:04.239
I don't want to. That's the problem. I just don't

604
00:57:04.280 --> 00:57:11.719
want to because at the moment I'm using Spreaker, I'm

605
00:57:11.840 --> 00:57:16.000
using their music, their background music for my podcasts, which

606
00:57:16.079 --> 00:57:26.599
means I have to change the music I use, I

607
00:57:26.719 --> 00:57:30.199
put en I've put a lot of hours into the

608
00:57:30.239 --> 00:57:34.320
website as well, so for that to go mm hmm,

609
00:57:39.719 --> 00:57:47.920
so really, let me just have a look. So I

610
00:57:47.960 --> 00:58:02.840
don't even know unique. I suppose I could just I

611
00:58:02.840 --> 00:58:12.119
could go back to using Kevin McLeod music and could

612
00:58:12.159 --> 00:58:15.239
do that again, go back to that. I think I

613
00:58:15.400 --> 00:58:19.960
saved them. I hope I haven't deleted them. Players don't

614
00:58:20.000 --> 00:58:24.519
say I deleted No, I don't want to have deleted them.

615
00:58:24.760 --> 00:58:31.519
I don't know why I am doing this. What's this

616
00:58:33.440 --> 00:58:37.000
highly threatened rare bird of prey spotted near where I live.

617
00:58:39.039 --> 00:58:42.199
I mentioned that they have a week, didn't I didn't

618
00:58:42.199 --> 00:58:47.119
I work? Didn't I mention that I've seen too, not

619
00:58:47.159 --> 00:58:55.400
just one, there's too Oh doesn't it very big? A

620
00:58:55.559 --> 00:58:58.920
rare red footed falcon has set of reports center ripple

621
00:58:58.960 --> 00:59:06.199
of excitement through birdwatcher's community after being spotted locally. The sleek,

622
00:59:06.400 --> 00:59:12.280
dark winged raptor was photographed by Essex bird watcher Thomas

623
00:59:12.320 --> 00:59:17.880
Harris after being spotted this year. The majestic bird was

624
00:59:18.000 --> 00:59:23.639
uplisted from near threatened to vulnerable on the IUCN Red

625
00:59:23.639 --> 00:59:29.800
List of Threatened specks species native to Eastern Europe and

626
00:59:30.000 --> 00:59:35.800
central Azure. Red footed falcons are extremely rare visitors to

627
00:59:35.880 --> 00:59:43.239
the UK, making any sighting an extraordinary event, especially in spring.

628
00:59:44.440 --> 00:59:52.920
With their flight, gray plumage, red legs and underpants, underparts

629
00:59:53.760 --> 01:00:00.239
and agile flight males are especially eye catching. It's a

630
01:00:00.239 --> 01:00:04.159
bit sexist. They are smaller than kestrels but share a

631
01:00:04.199 --> 01:00:11.320
similar fluttering hunting style, often hovering or swooping for insects

632
01:00:11.360 --> 01:00:16.760
in mid air. Photographer Thomas Harris, who captured the falcon

633
01:00:16.840 --> 01:00:21.280
on camera, said, we are very lucky to have the

634
01:00:21.360 --> 01:00:25.239
spurrowed nearer by. Thus was a female and they are

635
01:00:25.280 --> 01:00:31.480
typically found in Eastern Europe and Azure and spent. They

636
01:00:31.519 --> 01:00:35.400
spend a winter in Africa. Esch a bird I've been

637
01:00:35.480 --> 01:00:39.159
wanting to see for many years, so I am all

638
01:00:39.719 --> 01:00:45.239
the moon to finally see one. Oh. Red footed falcons

639
01:00:45.239 --> 01:00:53.320
are listed as one listed as Red footed falcons are

640
01:00:53.440 --> 01:00:58.440
listed as of conservative conservation are listed as of conservation

641
01:00:58.519 --> 01:01:01.679
and concern across Europe. I don't know if that sentence

642
01:01:01.760 --> 01:01:10.840
works for me. With natural habitats converted to agricultural fields, pesticides, poisoning,

643
01:01:10.880 --> 01:01:14.239
blah blah blah, so number of suitable feeding and breeding

644
01:01:14.360 --> 01:01:19.599
sites are dwindling, and he has the last word, mister

645
01:01:19.639 --> 01:01:23.760
Webs's name. They are extremely rare visitors to the UK.

646
01:01:24.559 --> 01:01:29.599
And I'm so happy, can't you tell that way? I

647
01:01:29.679 --> 01:01:37.519
am dancing? So yeah. One of the city's oldest companies

648
01:01:37.559 --> 01:01:44.239
may retire after a hundred, one hundred and eighty years.

649
01:01:45.920 --> 01:01:51.480
It's a decorating center or building center decorating one hundred

650
01:01:51.480 --> 01:01:53.679
and eighty years that have building firms one hundred and

651
01:01:53.719 --> 01:02:00.119
eighty years ago. I thought we all lived in ditches, yes,

652
01:02:02.679 --> 01:02:10.599
and like wigwhams and stuff. Oh no, imagine I had

653
01:02:10.639 --> 01:02:20.239
ten shops. But I don't know. M oh well, I

654
01:02:20.239 --> 01:02:25.719
don't know. So after all this chitter chat looks like

655
01:02:25.760 --> 01:02:31.760
I'm not making any changes whatsoever. Isn't that strange? Probably not?

656
01:02:37.079 --> 01:02:46.159
The thing, is right. I do sometimes sometimes have a

657
01:02:46.199 --> 01:02:58.320
little habit of making changes and then thinking ooh, you know,

658
01:03:00.199 --> 01:03:05.519
it's like ooh, I wish I hadn't done that now,

659
01:03:07.719 --> 01:03:11.400
But then thinking about it, if we look at the

660
01:03:11.880 --> 01:03:15.880
look at the statistics, so I'll be getting a speaker

661
01:03:16.159 --> 01:03:20.679
like two thousand plus today, five hundred and twelve. So

662
01:03:20.719 --> 01:03:25.280
it's been a very very poor, very poor day. Oh yes,

663
01:03:26.440 --> 01:03:29.679
but if we go for last thy days. The different podcasts.

664
01:03:30.159 --> 01:03:32.960
Hypnosis for Sleeping Deeply is the top one. Let Me

665
01:03:33.039 --> 01:03:37.000

Pain Hypnosis five, let Me Bore Your Pain Away six,

675
01:04:32.400 --> 01:04:38.239
it's growing, and some of the ones that I wasn't

676
01:04:38.239 --> 01:04:41.559
getting much traction with are now getting more. So, you

677
01:04:41.599 --> 01:04:46.599
know what, maybe I should just chill out a little bit, just,

678
01:04:46.760 --> 01:04:51.159
you know, just not makes such a big deal about everything.

679
01:04:54.400 --> 01:05:01.440
Let Me Bore the Thing Hypnosis Stress Anxiety. I deleted

680
01:05:01.480 --> 01:05:04.559

681
01:05:08.000 --> 01:05:12.559

682
01:05:12.679 --> 01:05:18.760
last year. Relaxation Hypnosis deleted. Oh dear, what did I

683
01:05:18.960 --> 01:05:22.119
just go through? These periods I delete? These were these

684
01:05:22.199 --> 01:05:24.719
were quite popular podcasts as well, So why did I

685
01:05:24.760 --> 01:05:34.000
delete them? I don't know. And yeah, another one ASMI

686
01:05:34.159 --> 01:05:41.159
let Me Boy the Sleep deleted that Jason Newland Hypnosis deleted,

687

AH Sleeping somni Hypnosis deleted. Now these are ones that

688
01:05:53.440 --> 01:05:58.400
would doing okay, So I guess I was trying to

689
01:05:58.440 --> 01:06:04.920
just consolidate them into like one thing. I suppose maybe

690
01:06:05.679 --> 01:06:08.559

697
01:06:44.320 --> 01:06:51.679
things considered, provide I just continue to do what I'm doing,

698
01:06:53.159 --> 01:06:57.239
it just can just continue to grow, So maybe I'll

699
01:06:57.280 --> 01:06:59.360
get back. You know, there was there was a time

700
01:07:00.840 --> 01:07:04.320

01:07:04.360 --> 01:07:07.679
me the stats. Won't give me the stats. It' only

702
01:07:07.679 --> 01:07:11.159
give me the last twelve months or so, I think

703
01:07:11.239 --> 01:07:18.440

704
01:07:18.480 --> 01:07:28.119
