Hey friends, it's Ian from TV's the recovering gleeke colon ugly podcast. When Lena and I first

decided to make this podcast, we quickly realized we had literally zero idea of how to make that

happen. Thankfully, a friend of ours recommended the podcasting platform Anchor. Anchor is free. It has all of the tools you need to record and edit your

podcast from your phone or computer. You can even add songs from Spotify into it. And the absolute

most amazing thing about Anchor is that they will distribute your podcast for you. So,

anywhere that you listen to Recovering Gleek, Spotify, Apple

Podcasts, whatever weird third-party app you're using, it is there because Anchor put it there.

And the icing on the cake is that you can make money from your podcast through Anchor with

no minimum listenership. All you have to do is record an ad, which is why I am recording an ad right now, because I want money very badly. It is everything you need to make a podcast in one place. Download the free Anchor app or go to anchor.fm to get started.

I always feel so much pressure that I'm like, well, now we have to say something funny before we sink up.

Yeah.

I know.

I'm like, this is a dance we do.

You and I say weird things at each other and then we start.

I know.

And then once one of us is like, I feel like that was brother something worthwhile in there.

Let's sync up.

I do love a cold open.

I think it's really fun.

Yeah.

We'll just make that our cold open.

We'll air our insecurities to everyone.
