Welcome to Ear Biscuits. I'm Rhett. And I'm Link joining us this week at the round table of dim lighting are Lizzie and Ellie.

Members of the Mythical crew who I'm sure you know because they appear in lots of good Mythical Morning more videos on the This is Mythical Channel. They do.

They are writers and segment producers of Good Mythical Morning and they're just generally good people to hang out with and convert and decent about things. They're so good and decent.

And they also they they're really into celebrity celebrity conspiracy theories when we did the episode of GMM about celebrity conspiracy theories.

Yeah like Taylor Swift being the devil they were all about that they did the research for that and they they they were like because this is like a hobby of ours. We're really into it beyond say faking her pregnancy. And so we were like well would you guys should just come on.

And your biscuit and then try to convince us of some. Yeah if you're so into it. Let's talk it out. So that's what happens. Yeah so that you remain to be seen whether or not we will be convinced. But you're going to have to stick around and find out.

We should give them a note about what we're thinking about ear biscuits and the formatting and distribution of it between this this video format on YouTube and the audio formats everywhere else podcasts have found.

We're going to make a little adjustment because we're continuing to experience with this episode. Yeah starting with this episode to figure out the best way to do this.

And the fact that we had this video version on YouTube we've got the audio version wherever audio podcast or found. So what we're going to do starting this week is we're going to make excerpts of ear biscuits available on YouTube.

So shorter length not the entire episode but broken up into some shorter pieces that are good on YouTube.

That all are ultimately reminders that the way to get the complete show experience in audio only format is on all the audio distribution platforms.

Right. And those are the sounds.

If you're watching on YouTube we'll put all those places that you can get it in the description of the video but there's just it's very easy if you've never used one of those platforms. There's lots of different ways to to listen to podcasts.

And listen there's a there's a handful of reasons why we're doing this why we want to why we want to try.

Before you get into that let me just clarify that we're releasing these throughout the week to it's going to be a couple of different times during the week so it's not like all the excerpts are going to come out on Monday but they're going to come out throughout the week we don't know exactly how it's post and it's based on the content of the episode and it may change and it's open to to be changed as we move forward.

So why are we doing this why not continue to just throw the entire episode up on YouTube.

There's another number of reasons for that. Yeah, I think the first reason we're doing this is that it's very helpful to us and our sponsors when you listen on the places where it's available as an audio podcast that we it's very helpful for us at this point for you to listen over there.

So we want as many people listening over there. And then the second reason is we think that actually making an excerpt form that's not the entire podcast kind of serves the YouTube platform better.

It's more shareable. It's more watchable and you can use the if you're a earbiscuit's listener you can use these YouTube clips as a way to share and kind of draw other people into the earbiscuits experience which.

Send somebody a podcast a full hour or plus right can be intimidating or audio podcast can be kind of intimidating to get into right but getting into one specific clip about one specific topic that I mean is a standalone piece of the conversation is a good way to introduce people.

And the earbiscuits so we ask you to do that watch on YouTube and find you know the clips that you want to share and then listen to the whole thing because that's really helpful.

Yes, it is.
