Hey everyone welcome to the conversations that matter podcast I'm John Harris

this is kind of weird for those watching I'll explain for those listening

yeah so there's some sparkly dust kind of like a motion graphic in the background and I'm smaller because I'm moving and I packed up the, well actually no, I got rid of the cabinet that my camera was sitting on and so I was like where am I going to put my camera?

I think there's a stand somewhere but I couldn't I don't have time to find it.

So I had to put it on a shelf which is

farther back and anyway this is the best motion graphic I could find with the time I

had just so it wouldn't be a bunch of blank stuff in the background and completely boring but this isn't

really my style but we're gonna get rid of it in a second because I'm gonna show

you a slideshow and I'm gonna I'm gonna decrease my size even more and blow up the slideshow and we're going to talk

about crew and and just what's going on a little bit of an update with the

organization I don't usually focus on

crew. I know it's been a while. I did do a video last week just where I said hey

there's an announcement that crews lenses institutes shutting down in the United

States.

Maybe this is a good thing.

It's something to take Hopin, I guess, that maybe some people are listening.

I feel, I had a slight suspicion, I know I mentioned that maybe this was like a political move and now I'm pretty sure it probably was so I'm going to explain what I think is probably going on in crew as an organization I think there's a tug of war there a real tug of war. It's been going on for a while and it's not slowing down.

So we're going to talk about that. By the way, I should mention too. Some people have made comments about the intro music and the outro music and it's Tim Bushong who's does I think he also does some stuff for like James White. I think like the intro for the James White's dividing line is him or maybe it was just

radio free Geneva I can't remember but he does some of that stuff as well but he offered to do to

kind of soup my if you if some of you remember a few months ago it was just an acoustic

version I recorded on my phone of that that little riff that rock and roll riff and and so that actually I should, since everyone now is talking about giving attribution, right?

And no one wants to plagiarize.
