0:00.0	What's up you guys? I'm your host, me Simone, and welcome to the Let's Try This Again podcast. Let's just try again.
0:13.4	Hey, y'all, I am so excited to be here. Thank you for tuning into another episode. This episode is going to be light, fun. We might get a
0:23.3	little deep. We pulled some of your questions from Q&A. I put my phone number in the group chat on the
0:29.0	let's try this again. Instagram page, you guys. If you guys are not in the broadcast channel and in that
0:35.3	group chat, you're missing merch drops. We dropped merch last
0:38.4	week, all sold out. You're missing all the BTS stuff, all the exclusive stuff, all the secret app
0:44.6	stuff that we're working on. You need to get in that group chat. We're building community in that

1:35.3	very difficult and time consuming and you have to put a lot of money and energy into building
1:39.8	an app from the ground up. And there have been moments where I do have doubt and that doubt has
1:44.0	crept
1:44.3	in in the past and been like, yo, like, you're doing all this for 50 subscribers. You're doing all
1:51.8	this for 100 subscribers. You're doing all this. And oh my God, there's another influencer comedian
