Hi there, welcome to Watch Diary. This is Ryan Snelling, your creator, your host. Thanks for being here.

I just wanted to hop on here for a few minutes to talk to you and to talk to myself.

It's the season of giving, It's the season of thanks. You guys have

given me a lot this past year and I just wanted to acknowledge that because I love you so much.

It's December 2nd at the time that I'm recording this and posting this so if you're listening on time you already know that. Love

my on-time listeners. I just got my Spotify wrapped email so I got a couple of cool

podcast statistics to share with you via Spotify. I mean I guess I don't know why I'm talking

about this at any point I could share my overall numbers but since

Spotify is one of my favorite things I just figured hey why not talk about this real quick and again like I said it gives me a reason to thank you and talk to you all for a few minutes also had some other things I wanted to talk about too but anyway I hope you guys are doing well hope you

guys had a good Thanksgiving or I don't know if you all celebrate Thanksgiving

or I hope you had a good holiday or just a good good time let's go over 20-20, shall we? I just registered this by the way. Like when

it was Schmo's No and Movie House, I thought I had applied it to my email. I don't know maybe it did but it seemed like it was like a new

It's only four pages of stats here. According to Spotify, my voice resonates with you all in 40 countries, so that's cool.

Again, these are only Spotify specific.

They're not specific to like Apple Podcasts and all that.

Even in 2020, you still found ways to keep creating you dropped 3,700 minutes of content over 50 episodes. That's pretty cool. I don't know the minutes, you know? When I post episodes, I guess I know at the time, but I don't add them up or anything. So that's pretty cool. Over 50 episodes, I knew that before my five, wait, that's it.

Thanks for keeping us all company this year. Spotify is not impressed with Watch a diary.

Let me go to Spreaker real quick. That's who I host with. It's really interesting to see because Spotify is just everything to me. I mean I listen to music and podcast exclusively on Spotify now so I just assume that it's what a lot of people do not most I know that most people don't listen to podcast on Spotify but I just assume that a large number do, and they don't.

They really don't.

91% of listeners of this podcast listen on their phone, which I could have probably guessed that. I mean, duh.

So Spotify gets 2% of our total listens on here. Isn't that crazy? 84% comes from Apple Podcasts. I can barely see the
