Hey guys, it's summertime. It's the perfect time to create your own podcast. Spotify has

a platform that lets you make one really easily, and you can distribute it everywhere and

even earn money all in one place for free. It's called Spotify for podcasters, and here's

how it works. Spotify for podcasters lets you record and edit podcasts right from your

phone or computer, and so no matter what your setup is like, you can start creating today,

and then Spotify will distribute your podcast everywhere that podcasts are available.

some time to begin, I highly recommend you give it a try. Download the Spotify for podcasters

app or go to Spotify.com for its such podcasters to get started.

to the back burner. But we're really in the swing of things now in schools and in full gear.

to our kids. And people ask me about it when I'm on the road, kind of, you know, what

are we, some of the habits that we have as a, you know, some of the things that sort of

define our family. And one of them is that we read out loud to our kids and have for

many, many years, we've read dozens and dozens of great stories to our kids. And we're
