I know now what I want to say in my intro for my podcast.

I'm going to start with a warning to other creatives.

Create like it's your last podcast, last graphic, last painting, last blog posts.

There are so many forces out there that want us to be bland and that is not possible with

this flow.

I have too many thoughts about celebrating us, reading what I want to read, pointing

out donkeys, what links us together and shouldn't tear us apart.

I also give you bonus content through 10 froze bar on my Patreon and if you become a

Melanated Nerd, I also will share content about getting the real tea on reality TV.

Join me in this episode of 10 froze reading for the while ride and thank you for listening.

So my show is experiencing some phenomenal growth still.

I'm just grateful to the IT person at Potbean.

I'm grateful to the advertisers.

I'm mostly just grateful to the fans that are downloading my unique listeners and everyone

that is interested in the podcast.

I am ecstatic that I'm well on my way to 300,000 downloads who thought last year when I

did the marketing push and I made some changes in the show that I would be well where I am

now over 200,000 downloads in a year.

It's pretty amazing and I still have plans to continue to grow, to get the recognition

into finally land, either a deal given the derp of writers because of the strike and

other content.

I want to continue to basically put my positivity into the zeitgeist and let people enjoy it
