They say your first fifty episodes will suck. As I had to pause and restart my channel a few times, this is more than true for me. First, I didn’t know what I was doing, then I didn’t know how to deal with the YouTube channel and the podcast, and finally, my health forced me into a video hiatus with audio-only episodes for a while. I’m in the process of revisiting a lot of the earlier topics that are still in line with where I’m headed, and recreating quite a few of the audio-only episodes. This is one of the episodes that will likely never be redone, as it’s no longer in line with what I want to do. Part of me wants to delete all the early episodes, but archiving them feels like the better choice.
