All right, so we have some big news in podcast land.
We've been doing this now for, like, over a year.
People have been tolerating me running my mouth into a
microphone about literally nothing.
For a year.
I keep asking who is gaming the system?
Because I can't figure out how there are actual humans who listen to
this every week, because you guys realize it's just me talking, right?
If you ask my husband, that's not enticing.
Thank you.
I love that you guys are here.
I don't want you to go anywhere, but also, I'm still very confused by your
existence, and that has not changed.
If you go back and listen to the first episode, we talked about it then.
That has not changed.
I'm gonna go back and listen to the first episode because that feels
like a thing to do at this time.
But anyway, we have big news.
So the person who could not have been more resistant to the podcast that was
her idea, I'm talking about myself right now, so resistant to this, has started
building podcasts for other people.
What?
This doesn't even make sense.
This medium, I kinda like it.
I've had a lot of fun doing it, and everybody I talk to now, I'm
like, "You should have a podcast." And I was so, so, so anti-podcast.
I can't even… I… Listen, sometimes I'm wrong, and I don't mind being wrong,
but I was definitely wrong about this.
So anyway, that means a few things for our little corner of the internet.
One of which is that, I don't know if you guys realize this, but this podcast,
this thing that we do every week, is on the top 40 on the Apple charts.
We're in the top 40 on the Apple charts, and the only thing I'd like better than
being in the top 40 on the Apple charts is being number 42 on the Apple charts.
If that doesn't make sense to you, leave.
If it does make sense to you, of course it makes sense to you.
There's nobody here who that doesn't make sense to.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
But anyway, so we have some changes coming up.
Good changes.
They don't affect the format.
They don't affect your access to what we're doing here.
It's time to, to stretch in another direction for a couple of reasons.
One of which is we're gonna have a bunch more shows.
We're gonna have other shows that have our branding because they're part of
our network, because we have a network.
What?
And so we need to use our branding a little bit more flexibly.
Again, wild.
And so as we're building out these pods that will all be, authoritative
content from authoritative people who are also kind of funny.
That's, that's like our thing, right?
That will become the Different, Not Broken Network, the DNB Network.
You'll see that on all of our properties as we go forward.
And our show is gonna get a new name as a result of that.
And I'm very, very excited and scared, and also excited, but also scared.
We are becoming You're Not Too Much.
So going forward, when you find my stupid face in your phone, you
will see it next to You're Not Too Much, because you know what?
You're not too much, and so many of us have been told
that we are, and you're not.
You're perfect just the way you are.
You're not too much, and you are at the same time enough.
And so, going forward, you will see that branding on this very
same space, and it will be You're Not Too Much, a DNB podcast, or
a Different, Not Broken podcast.
Still hosted by me.
You're still gonna hear the same stupid stuff.
New stupid stuff, same stupid host.
You'll still get it every week, sometimes more than once a week if I decide to
throw a curveball at my producing team and make them rename the whole show.
So more than once a week sometimes.
And, we're gonna have all sorts of cool new things.
There's gonna be oppor- opportunities to get, special content.
There are a bunch of new programs we're launching.
There are a bunch of new shows we're launching, at least one immediately
and then several more will follow.
You'll get to meet those hosts as we onboard them.
But, things are getting bigger in the coolest way, and that works
out because you're not too much
