September 24th, 2026  |  2 hrs 8 mins

YouTubers: did you know you can turn the videos and livestreams you are already making into a podcast you actually own? I'm going to talk about getting your existing content into every podcast app on a feed that YOU control - without starting from scratch.

I'll talk about why podcasting is still one of the last practical places for free speech, how hosting your own audio gives you ownership, and how the Value for Value model keeps the work independent with no ads and no paywall.

I think the "embarrassing myself on purpose" series has run its course, and without a new topic to build a series around, I'm just opening up about myself and talking a little about who I really am to start to connect with you more, and "be authentic." This week's livestream can be about that, or anything else you want to talk about.

Thank you to my guest co-host, Mike from TheAgingRetiree YouTube channel! I appreciate your willingness to share your time and your insights on everything from social media to retirement to life in general.
