cheese that isn't yours not your cheese thank you that was for you bringing the spirit of John into the podcast so tell me what you're up to these days the people that listen to my show know that I get my podcast reviews from you so tell us about my podcast reviews dot com yeah it's a service it's the main aspect of my business I mean this is all the boring stuff right now

main aspect of my business is not comedy anymore I don't do comedy anymore I mean I like comedy but I just don't host comedy so I I help podcasters and my podcast reviews dot com is one of their services that helps you to engage your audience through your podcast reviews and does more in the near future with an awesome logo James designed yeah we had fun with that didn't we if you want a little sneak peak draw your picture dot com yeah

but I just help podcasters that's why do now for my business and that's the podcast that I host is all serious stuff that's the podcast that most likely you listening right now you don't want to listen to my other podcast because it's about RSS feeds and microphones and RSS tags and boring technical stuff like that but if you're a podcaster you're probably salvated it's definitely your show if you're a podcaster and and there's a lot of my listeners that do their own podcast or interested in an

if you are that's the place to go that's where I go when I have a question and half the time when I Google something something from Daniel J Lewis pops up that's how involved he is in the podcast and community and how influential he is he's he's a great guy and he says it's boring and all that kind of stuff but for people like me it's it's it's cake it's like eating cake so it is all like that so anyway welcome to show

I'm glad you can make it this is like been long overdue we've known each other for years and years and years and uh this is the first time we've ever podcasted together so I'm very glad you know you've invited me to be on the podcast before yes when like a long time ago okay and it was going to be you had four episodes left that you were going to do and then end the podcast and you invited me to be on and I oh

so so wanted to be on uh-huh but I was getting married at that point oh you couldn't have postponed it come on

hey honey do you mind if I step away from the honeymoon for a moment yeah for the little podcast here with a friend yeah yeah well I kind of wonder if I if I'd been a guest on the podcast back then I wonder

if things would have turned out differently for me because things didn't work out on the other side but the podcast is still going so yeah

hey you never know man you never know you just have to take it one step at a time and yeah I'm well I'm glad we finally got you on and we'll have to do it again I've already decided that is a good idea so well we'll do it again we always start with an opening story

and this one I'm going to just go ahead and tell you guys everybody has their favorite kind of stories some of you like bruises and bumps stories some of you like embarrassing stories

one of my personal favorite kind of stories middle school drama I love that we have a bunch of middle schoolers that listen to the show because it's the only thing they're allowed to listen to and they want to participate and so they send in some of the quote-unquote best stories um that we ever get and this one is not 100% middle school drama but it is middle school drama heavy
