Hello everybody and welcome to a special pandemic edition of the Here We Are Podcast.

I just haven't known what to do about all of this and was in a wait and see and I was stuck in LA and then had to drive and get all the way to Wisconsin and I've been brainstorming solutions and wasn't sure what all my take on it wasn't what the best way to approach this was and didn't want to have the same

information that everyone's hearing

everyone everywhere else and so we're gonna be doing exploring a lot of

different topics and I'll be releasing I've been I've been scheduling a whole bunch I already at the time that I'm recording this which is a

Sunday night I have I think four lined up for the week which we're trying to release

immediately just trying to get everything in place to see if I can get the team up to

speed and grinding away on editing and getting everything done.

I do ask for your patience in both the audio and video quality as I've never done a remote podcast until now and we're trying

out a few different methods of doing that and a balance between making things easy for my guests and what the highest quality is.

So if you have any tips or suggestions yourself, let us know.

We're exploring a lot of different options. so bear with us through that each each episode will hopefully be improving in in

Quality a bit as as we learn as we go and hopefully this will be, you know, a pretty smooth running high quality

product and in a week or two is the plan.

And so, yeah, I'm putting them on YouTube,

going to start doing video podcasts, so that's one added advantage to doing these is you're going to start

getting to see me and my guests and getting to see our body language and facial expressions and that sort of thing.

And I just, I never realized why people would put podcasts on YouTube.

And then I realized most people don't watch TV the way that I do. I don't watch TV that often and when I watch it I am focused I want zero distractions I want to get every line but then it occurred to me that a lot of people just have the TV

on the background and they're cooking and doing things around the house and podcasts are great

for that. You don't have to watch and see every second. You can just be listening and pop up and look from time to time.

And so there's an opportunity there that I hadn't realized something that I was depriving you guys though.
