This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

It's time for the good news.

Tell me something good.

I'll go first.

Mine's easy.

I'm getting close to a million TikTok followers.

Oh, wow.

That's amazing.

Which is pretty exciting.

And I have a million on Instagram, but I've been on Instagram way longer.

And I'm not like so, so close, but I did hit over $900,000, which was a goal. And so now I'm at like 9-06 or something. So, so got a ways to go. But yeah, it's kind of cool. Instagram is so hard to grow. Do you notice that? Oh, yeah, I'm losing followers. It's like, I think they clean bots so often. No, you're not wrong. That's generally what people say now. Like their followers are getting eaten away. Like, they clean bots all the time. Why did the bots start following me anyways? Yeah, I'm losing followers. Yeah, everybody, it's hard to gain, and I've been doing okay now, but I don't know.

But YouTube did a whole bot clean as well recently. But people create bots for different reasons. A lot of the bots are created because companies will sell follow, so they got to create bots and then they'll end up wiping bots. Like, that's a pretty lucrative business. Oh, you can buy your followers? You can, yeah. It's a lot harder than it used to be. but you can do that.

But yeah. It's a lot harder than it used to be, but you can do that. But yeah, and so they have to follow people. It's not even that you bought them, but bought. Yeah, because I didn't. Yeah. Would you say that's accurate? I would say, yeah. That's why I'm like, wait, I don't even know why they were following me. And then also, I mean, some are bots and probably some are just people that are like, oh, I don't.

I don't feel bad about that. It's a lot of bots. I'm not feeling bad about it. Okay. Maybe they just don't know why they're following me. So I do that sometimes. Someone hasn't popped up in my feed for a little bit. And then I'll be like, wait, who is this person?

Why am I following them?

I almost...

You unfollow?

Hey, will you guys pull up your Instagrams for sake of this

because mine's TikTok by the way TikTok not really a bot place I don't think at least not yet do you

think so a little bit if you look in the comments and see some of those people commenting they're bots

interesting it's some good AI bots on TikTok so like what what did their comments look like? They look legit. It's like a real legit comment, but if you click into it, they have like no followers and the image is fake. I want to ask you a question. How would I get those? I don't really know. Ooh, I feel like there's an off-air conversation. Well, no, not even that. It's like there are artists that work for labels and there are ways to manipulate streams. For sure ways. And they talk about it pretty openly on some of these gossip sites and Des Moines and there are things you can do. You can pay big playlist to put you in and get streams there. Or you can do you can pay big playlist to put you in
