Alright, so I'm here to give y' all an update on the podcast and let y' all know what's going on currently and future plans.

Speaker A

Well, I'm currently behind on the newest episode.

Speaker A

I've worked a lot of overtime recently, so it's made it difficult for me to work on the new episode.

Speaker A

I've also had some issues with my previous hosting platform, had difficulties logging in, and some other technical difficulties.

Speaker A

I have switched from the Podbean platform to the Captivate platform.

Speaker A

One downside to that is that Podbean has their own listening platform and Captivate does not.

Speaker A

However, Captivate does have a lot of great features for independent podcasters such as myself.

Speaker A

I will be able to do things such as book guests and guests will be able to book themselves.

Speaker A

There's a section just for episode planning which will be useful just for me.

Speaker A

There's a whole section of features just for promotion and marketing which is important because I want the podcast to grow links to tools that help with my podcast and plus all kinds of information and videos with podcasting tips.

Speaker A

My current plans are to finish the episode that is currently in progress and do a few more episodes and that will be season one.

Speaker A

Once season one is finished, I will take the time to work on season two.

Speaker A

The reason for this is is so that I can create a backlog of episodes to have prepared in case something happens and I fall behind like I currently am now.

Speaker A

Also, I will be able to create better quality episodes with all the details on the story I'm telling and also if I get far enough ahead, I can start releasing multiple episodes monthly instead of just one every month.

Speaker A

This will bring my listeners more stories to listen to.

Speaker A

Also, I will have more time to prepare and do research on my stories.

Speaker A

I will also be working on doing interviews and bringing guests on the show.

Speaker A

I will be planning to go on trips to explore some of the places I will be talking about in future episodes so that I can gain insight and more information.
