Hello, welcome to jasonnewland.com. My name's Jason Newland and this is Let Me Bore You To Sleep. Hello, hi, hi everybody. Please only listen when you can safely close your eyes.
So I am recording this on video at the same time, so for YouTube at the same time as recording it for my podcast. It's not live so there's no, there won't be, I don't want to use the word distractions because but I do get distracted when I do the the live Facebook broadcasts and so it's just going to be like a normal podcast but with two cam microphones stuck in my face. Now there's this, well I'm pointing to the one on the left, obviously you can't see that if you're listening, which is for the video and the one microphone on the right is for the podcast.
Now the sound on the podcast is better than the one on the video, although the one in the video should be okay but there's just a better quality of sound. That's more to do, not so much to do with a microphone because they are both pretty much equal microphones. Very good, very very good microphones.
This microphone is what all the top podcasters use and this is the sister of that one. It's kind of, they're both sure. This is the SM17, SM7B and this one is, it's something else.
What is it? I don't know. Anyway it's, it's just a different setup to what I've got, the two different setups. Anyway, hope you're well.
I hope the the audio is okay on the video. It's still a hell of a lot better than it always used to be so it should be okay. It's been fine with the live broadcasts but it's one of those microphones, it needs to be a little bit, can't be too close to my mouth.
Otherwise it looks, it just, I think the sound gets a little bit distorted but it's, it's one of those things that you're always sort of trying to find ways to improve. I've had my hair cut. I've been scalped basically.
My friend, I asked him a couple of days ago would he cut my hair and you know, he's willing to cut it because you can cut hair. I thought I'd just get rid of it all. Just get rid of the whole lot for now, you know, as it's the coldest day of the year.
It's not the coldest day of the year but it's suddenly gone from being mild like 17 degrees to being about four degrees overnight literally and it's not a good time to be completely taking away your um, firmulation, what's it called? Firm, I don't know. Warming stuff. Hair.
Not firmulation, what's the bloody name? Instila, ins, ins, what's the stuff they put in the walls of buildings to keep it warm? Ins, insulation, installation, you know what I mean anyway. Thermostat, okay my brain, oh clearly is not working today. So I had my hair shaved um so I'm looking a lot smarter I guess than I was last time I made a video which is only a few days ago but it's weird.
I mean my hair grows so quick that was it now the 4th of January 2022 by the end of the month I'll have hair again like proper hair as opposed to artificial hair but there'll be hair and but it won't be messy it'll be just tidy-ish hair but when I had it when my friend cut it all off he was amazed at firstly how curly my hair is especially at the back it's proper curly and how thick and also I'm always, I don't know why I'm always surprised how how little grey hair there is especially
at the back most of my grey hair is kind of a little bit at the front at the sides there is grey hair throughout the hair in little bits but in the back you know there's clumps of hair without any grey there's a few other little bits like bits of carrot and I found a little little cracker toy in there but you know things get get caught up in your hair when it's curly don't they so what's the latest I wanted to say thank you to a couple of people first of all to Diana who
sent me a Paypal gift thank you thank you very much I got a couple of messages I keep losing track of these damn messages because Facebook takes me between pages and I can't get back to the other page but I did get a message from Mary thank you Mary for you I won't read it out but thank you for the message that was really helpful oops just bashed the microphone sorry about that everybody basically what's happened with the podcast is again another setback another bump in the road I'm not really sure what's going on if
I'm honest because I've had I have adverts on my podcasts in order to finance and cover everything you know and hope pay for the equipment that I've invested in well that's all gone to well there's practically no adverts being played at the moment so I don't know quite what's going on I've contacted them and Mary pointed out this as well that you know and I know that you know not everyone loves adverts I don't love adverts but they're only at the beginning and then they're not at the end they're not in the middle and that
helps to cover the costs of running this free service because it's you know I don't I don't normally go into the costs and everything but it's it's fairly substantial these days but the purchasing of the equipment and I've got all of it on credit so I'm paying it all off and I've got at the moment and I'm going to cut this down but I've got six internets so I've got my normal broadband which is very slow which isn't enough to upload anything which can't just you know wouldn't it was no good so I had to
get mobile internet at the moment I've got two phones because I've got a new phone and I've got the old phone and they both have unlimited data now when the one runs out at the end of January I'm getting rid of that so that's going to be one gone but there are times like recently where I've been using all of the devices uploading at the same time because it's time consuming every 10 hour recording I upload takes a while you know it's not it's not quick so in order to upload lots of different recordings it
takes hours and hours so I've got at the moment one two three four five different devices all working at the same time now I'm hoping once I've finished uploading all the new recordings the five and ten hour ones and everything's all sorted on my website all updated I can just go back to just using one device or maybe just two devices and that that would suit me better just have the two devices and then upload rather than have five going at the same time because I shouldn't need five I'll use five and the one phone
that I've got is the old phone when when that contract runs out for the the data I will stop using that phone and I'll use the other phone and I'll just swap the sim over or I don't know something like that yeah no I don't but at the moment I've got two phones the reason I got this phone is so that I can make videos because the video quality is much better than the original phone than the old one although I need some lighting the lighting is a little bit of an issue because it's it's
a good picture I think it's a good picture really but the I could do with a bit more light in the room because all I've got is just a light bulb up there that's it so to make it a bit better I could perhaps do with that making getting some lighting but I don't know where I'll put it because there's not a lot of room left in here to start putting up big lights but we'll see we'll see anyway um I'd say thank you to Sebastian who um um I'd say happy happy new year to
you Sebby Sebbyastian the old perv so happy happy new year um well happy new year to anyone that hasn't listened or watched any of my videos so far this year this is the first time maybe you've just discovered me poor you run run for your life don't look back just keep going try and forget you ever ever heard of me um yeah happy new year if it's the first time listening to me or watching me I did have some messages on YouTube so I will read them out if I can get onto YouTube where is
it YouTube YouTube there we go uh oh really what's it doing that for that's not what no that's not what I want I want turn on sync no I don't want to turn on sync YouTube right so the YouTube is playing up oh no that's I'm doing the wrong one YouTube studio okay YouTube studio Sebastian said he was the 600th subscriber but I I look and it says if I've got 599 subscribers so I think you might be telling lies Sebastian first time ever of course lying to my face uh so I'm still for 401
off of being able to monetize the YouTube channel so I guess that won't be happening for a little while 784 785 oh I do actually have a website where is it I've uh YouTube just realized that one of them hasn't been uploaded 585 I've got to share that with YouTube okay there you go got some comments right yeah Sebastian he's come your favorite uncle Hubert that's his name on YouTube but his real name is Sebastian Newland he's my brother he's my dad he's my son I am officially now your 600th subscriber I expect full celebrations
of the occasion flying flag pants down and a laudatory speech in honor of me exactly what I'm doing darling exactly what I'm doing um Robin none your business is sent me a message oh look I don't know what that was for um okay I have to go to the actual page oh she said lot 2022 uh laugh out loud so I don't know why I don't know what I did I did I must have said something I don't know what happy new year um Nicole says I uh I had a message and it's gone completely
gone it basically it was I've been listening to you for a while on uh on uh the uh podcasts and uh I thought I'd check out YouTube and see you know if you have a YouTube channel and whoo well beheld you do and then I saw your face I never expected you to look like that um yeah it can be a little bit of a shock the thing is if you're listening to someone on audio like a podcast and you don't know what they look like you depending on you know I guess your emotional reaction
to the podcast content I suppose but you're gonna make the person look how you want them to look like so if you let's say someone's listening to a relaxation session or a sleep session and maybe they like my voice then you can kind of make me to be seven foot tall with blonde hair blue eyes um big fat belly you know you know how women like men and the fact is you know you look at me I'm short baldy with a big fat belly so yeah I've had that said to me a few times or
blimey that was a really that was a bit of a shock to the system bit of a shock I haven't had many I haven't had many messages on YouTube recently and I do wonder if it's because I don't reply quick enough or I just don't have that many subscribers I only get about at the moment I get about a thousand plays a month that's about kind of where I am at the moment that's that's where I kind of get so it's not much obviously and out of that there's 358 hours worth of viewing so that's
a month so I guess and I've had 13 subscribers this month well in the last 28 days so in no way am I a I'm not a YouTube superstar just yet no and this part of me doesn't want to do YouTube videos anymore kind of do I want to bother with it and so I have to make it as easy as possible for myself to make these videos so part of the reason of having decent microphone and a setup and is so that the editing process is a lot easier that's kind of what I'm trying
to do make things simpler so when I finish the recording I'm using an app called luminosity I think it is on the iPad and it's a very simple way to do editing and you know my edits I don't I don't do much way of editing of the actual content you know I'll edit the beginning to make sure that you know the bit where I'm picking my nose and farting into a hanky I don't have that bit shown at the beginning and then the the last bit I guess when I get out of my chair and
do handstands I don't have that bit but the rest is just as it is there's no cuts or anything and I suppose if I there's a possibility I might do that you know if someone knocked at the door or I started sneezing or you know I went had to go to the toilet or something yeah then and that's like I've just gone that's fine I might just sit here and just do it but it's there might be occasions where I need to edit but really with most of my podcasts I do I don't edit I
do edit but I don't do much in the way of cutting so if there's some particularly loud moments then I will edit those either out or reduce the sound on those points so I'll do that with the podcast if I cough I will if I don't press pause on the podcast first then obviously I'll do what I want but if I forget or don't have time to pause the podcast's recording I will then edit that out I'll leave the odd one in yeah I'm not that bothered I'm a human being it's okay to cough but
you know I was a bit ill a while back and I was coughing a lot and it took me a good hour and a half to edit an hour recording because there was so much coughing so much you know I had to keep going back and I remember because I'm doing it on the iPad so now and then it just cuts off because I'm using an app to edit so you know it's pretty good it's pretty reliable works most of the time 99% of the time but because I use it so often daily quite a
few times a day there's those occasions where we'll just cut off so I've done 20 minutes worth of editing and then it just cuts out so I have to start all over again so I started doing if there's a big editing job I'll edit for maybe five minutes save it and then open it up again and go from there so there might be you know 10 different versions of the same recording but at least I haven't lost the editing that I've done.
I sound a bit croaky today my voice is a bit groggy I'm gonna have a drink but I'm gonna try and avoid the microphones I did wonder about doing some live broadcasts like regularly you know like a regular daily at the same time live broadcast but I haven't got around to it yet I mean at the moment I've been working on my website and for those interested I've changed my website a lot and now when you go on there the top thing is latest recordings you click on that and that brings you up to date
with the latest recordings apart from yesterday's recording so I need to update that and today's as well yeah so I have to update that but so there's you know whatever recording I've done that's updated I try and update it daily and then below that you've got relax and sleep hypnosis daily and and there's one two three four five six seven eight eight podcasts and each one has got four sections to it so there's the with music no sorry there's with the original without music podcast and then there's the original length podcast with that with background
music they're still the same length as it was then there's a five hour recording which has got the background music and then at the end of it there's carries on for five hours which is talking and music and then there's another version which is a 10 hour version of that so I've got that for all of those different podcasts now I'm in the process of trying to upload that stuff not just to the podcasts themselves but also to the website as well so at the moment I've done for example the relax and sleep tip daily
with music so if I click on number 149 which is the latest one you can play it so you can stream it for free or if you want to you can actually download it just add it to cart it costs nothing and just download it so or you can share it to facebook tweet it or pin it so you know and this is the same for every single recording that I have except they're not all uploaded yet it's going to take a while I've done relax and sleep hypnosis daily five hours I don't know how
many dates new to old well I've done up to 110 of those so there's still a few to do to up to keep it updated I've also got I've been doing today today today today Jason's bedtime story time so I've already got the ones Jason's with background music I've completed that so they're all up there so it's 26 I keep going best selling instead of date new to old so when you do go to the each individual section on the right hand side it gives you the option of you can go from out of the
recordings featured best selling alphabetical a to zed alphabet alphabetically zed to a price low to high high to low date new to old date old to new so it gives you the options to sort of look through and you can find out which is the most popular by best selling one and nothing's coming up there other than just like normal because I've only just uploaded them but if I go to let me see let me bore you to sleep without music so if I put in best selling the most popular one is number seven seven
seven six oh really okay seven seven six that's the most popular and then seven seven five seven six six seven eight four seven eight three seven eight I think it's making it up date new to old so how many have I got on there 784 I don't know I don't know if it's correct or not but that's what I'm doing with the website it will be sorted I'm in the process of doing it it's very time consuming it's it's not quite as exciting as you'd imagine I'm sure also over there so you know it's not
as um groovy as you think it's it's a little bit tedious a bit like me maybe well you stop putting yourself down babes okay sorry so yeah so that's it I'm I'm thinking of once this is done once I've done the work that needs to be done to get this done to get it out the way so all of the podcasts are updated up to date rather and the website is up to date then I can just start to just make recordings you know just normally make two or three maybe four recordings maybe five on
a you know on a day and that's it record them edit them upload them and that's all there is to it maybe even film every recording I do for YouTube depending on how this sounds when I've done it because I think most of the recordings I've done have been live streams up till now so I don't think I've ever actually made a recording before just like this like a just like a video if you know I mean they've all been Facebook streams so I'll see what it sounds like you know when I do the editing
later on today and then you know or tonight rather if it's okay then you know maybe what I'll do is do another one you know maybe continue to do the let me boys to sleeps and then eventually start to do some of the other stuff the whisper ones the uh relax sleep hypnosis daily the bedtime story time boring objects um I think that's it I lose track I lose track it's too much it's a proper juggle really is that's oh the smoking stop smoking recordings I'm going to be doing um a lot of those as
well I say a lot maybe one a week one stop smoking recording a week new um because I think we're stopping smoking it's not just about you stop smoking there's so much this I think there's a need for some kind of support ongoing support that would be useful for people when they stop smoking so instead of listening to the same recording for 30 days which you know could be very useful it's also nice to maybe have the option of listening to other stuff as well so new recordings fresh stuff maybe some recordings focusing not so
much on the stopping smoking but maybe focusing on the not eating every single bar of chocolate you see or focusing on just relaxing you know focusing on celebration celebrating uh your what you've achieved you know the goals that you achieve focusing on goals you know small goals one you know bit by bit instead of just one big recording but like that just like stop smoking but one recording 45 minutes listen to that and that's it so that's what I'm thinking is it also different people benefit from different things or like different things there's lots of
different ways of going and achieving the same objective so that's why I've made hundreds and thousands of relaxation recordings and why I've made what is this number 700 and this is number 786 of the let me bore you to sleep podcasts and I've done hundreds and hundreds I think nearly 400 or more of the deep sleep whisper recordings so it's never completed because not only has the quality of the sound improved over the years maybe there's the quality of the video well it's not maybe the quality of the video the video sound even if it's
not perfect and maybe it would never be perfect it's so much better than it was you've only got to listen or watch some of my older videos and the quality of the picture the quality of the sound was not very good really wasn't um but it was a time when I had a healthy audience I say healthy as in I mean I know it's not a lot to a lot of people but to me it was it was a big you know I at my peak on YouTube I had 45,000 plays a month now I
know that it's not a lot for a lot of people you know some people would put a video out and within 10 minutes there'd be a lot more than that you know just in 10 minutes on one video so I know that you know but I'm not comparing myself to other people and also it's a very niche little niche little um hole that I'm in isn't it really you know hypnosis and but at the time I was I was among a very small group really of people doing this there wasn't many people doing hypnosis on
YouTube and really there still isn't that many there's not a huge amount of people doing this and probably because there's no not unless you're really good or you know what you're doing there's probably not a huge amount of money in it um but saying that there are some people that have millions and millions and millions of views of their videos and could very very well be making a really good living out of doing YouTube videos but I think for some people they and I've kind of observed over the years I think some people get a
little bit fed up with doing it they do it it's like oh what next and I'm I suppose I just keep going now with the YouTube I did take a quite a long break from about 2015 until I don't know a couple of years ago when I started I got the I've had this YouTube channel for I think three years this new and I've done hardly anything on it at all I've done a few I've gone through a little period every now and then when I've done a video uh done a live stream or stuff
but I've not put a lot of energy in other than to upload pretty much every podcast episode that I've ever made well that I've made in the last three years that is so you know there are thousands there's I think there's over 1500 videos on my YouTube channel most of them are podcast episodes that have been uploaded from the podcast onto YouTube now if if nah if if I decide to continue to make videos as well as the podcast at the same time that will mean that over the coming year 2022 there will be I'm
trying to think three there there could be a thousand videos this year maybe 700 maybe maybe 500 it depends but probably at least 500 new videos will be released this year if I record every podcast I do so looking at a minimum 500 new videos so I guess it's what's that 10 a week so I guess well I hope that maybe and if if the quality is any good and because people listen to the podcast seem to like what I do what people do keep coming back so I'm hoping maybe the videos will give this
have the same effect maybe unless maybe I need to wear a mask cover my funny face up perhaps I don't know but I'm not gonna no I'm not going to do that no so yeah not much else has really happened today though I guess I'm just planning for the I was I did kind of have a itchy itchy armpit I was kind of planning for the future but the way things have kind of gone um I know we're just a few days into the year but I feel like I'm not able to really make any
new plans as yet because not sure not sure what's gonna happen so all I'm gonna do is focus on updating everything on the on the website make sure that all the podcasts are updated and and then just see what happens um you know my target is to pay off the debts as quick as possible but you know it's it's it's not easy but hopefully get rid of as many of those debts as possible every month and hopefully by the summer be debt free I'm hoping and to minimize the outgoings because at the moment the outgoings
are just very high so once once the debts are paid off there'll be a lot less outgoings anyway because you know I have 150 pound coming out there 400 pound coming out there so different you know different amounts that I'm paying monthly adds up once that's all paid off I should be left with a much more manageable amount I hope but we'll see so I'm interested I just have this wouldn't it be nice it'd be nice if because I've started off on youtube you know pretty much I did podcasting and videos at the same time
back in 2006 when I started I was on myspace I was uploading both videos and audios onto myspace and I was uploading podcast episodes onto my website and then I was I started not I didn't start but I joined podcasts and uploaded my audios to them there was quite a few podcasts around especially 2007 podcasting was popular and then it kind of phased out so there's this podcast I had which was a new it was it's free and I think I probably joined in 2006 so I was with them for about a year and I
remember that at the end of 2007 or January 2008 I had over a hundred thousand plays or downloads of my podcasts I was so happy and that's a huge amount you know at the time for me like a hundred thousand in a year and then they they decided to shut I guess they couldn't finance it can or whatever but they just it was annoying because it was a free podcast I think it's actually called freepodcast.com like why not charge the service was brilliant the the they had such a huge audience well they had a lot
of people watching and and you know producing podcasts so charge charge me 10 pound a month I'll pay it charge me 20 pound a month I'll pay it it wouldn't it didn't care I'd have paid it but they didn't and one day I went on there and half my recordings were just deleted they deleted my stuff and then I think before that the stats stopped they just stopped doing the stats so I didn't know
how many and then they do them like once a week and then I went obviously once I'd lost I say obviously once I lost 50 percent of my recordings I realized that maybe they weren't going to be you know the right place to use as a podcast host and I didn't have a backup so I lost a lot of stuff then not that any of it was any good but it's still you know it's not it's not it's not nice to lose um a lot of your work you know it was probably awful stuff some
of it the quality not the quality of the content because I think the content was fairly okay and it's weird to think that I was 35 years old when I started doing this I'm now 51 it's just really weird I'll be 52 this year and it's just really strange to think I was 35 when I started to become when I decided to become an internet hypnotist I remember the first video I did it was black and white didn't have color video back then no I did I was I've look I've got a pink face basically
you know I don't I don't really didn't really want to be on camera so I thought oh no what can I do oh I did it in black and white because I thought I'd look better in black and white and I do so I did it in black and white and I had this sponge like a car sponge you know the kind of thing that you wash your car with and on on the on the side of it one flat side of it I had I'm moving back so I'm banging the microphones I had a
piece of card with www.
jasonnewland.com on it and I stuck I can't help but bang these bloody microphones are right in my face okay calm down and relax they really are in the way I suppose technically I can have that there and it's probably still going to be the same so I guess it's kind of the same distance I don't know it just I wonder I need to play around with it really just to sort of get an idea what's the best way to do it anyway this big this sponge and the card with www.
jasonnewland.com because I didn't know how to do editing of a video in order to have it on the screen so I just had it there in front of me the whole time on the screen while I was filming and I was using a logitech webcam for the video and there was no audio there's no there was audio but I just I ripped the audio off of the video in order to make the podcast I did that for years actually so I didn't have any separate audio setup in a way this is more now predominantly audio setup with a video I feel like I'm I feel I'm leaving out the microphone I'm being oh sorry Mr.
Microphone I don't want to I don't want to be rude to it you know hello wow so um I just remember that this is a black and white and I posted it on on myspace and I think it was a relaxation session and I did too I did a like 10 minute relaxation session and a 10 minute pain release session and I uploaded them onto myspace now there was no one doing hypnosis on myspace as far as I remember so I uploaded them and I didn't know what to expect because you know myspace was huge
if a lot of people wouldn't even know what myspace is but it was the precursor to facebook it's what facebook pretty much copied and I suppose improved upon it was the main it was social they almost invented social networking myspace and it was I think initially supposed to be for musicians but then everyone kind of liked it and joined and um but it was a great way to share music and video and stuff like that and that's what I did and I had I think my first video I had thousands of plays I had about
10,000 plays of my first either the pain relief one or the relaxation one and I couldn't believe it it's like blimey 10,000 people played this thing and I didn't I don't know if I shared it with some groups so maybe insomnia groups or pain relief groups on there and I wasn't sure what kind of response I was going to get because it wasn't music but the amount of people that contacted me I just sent them you know a comment saying love this yes it's really good you should put more it should upload more this is
great and it was nothing but positivity on myspace for me for what I did and I don't remember getting hardly anything in the way of negativity from myspace now when Facebook arrived that was a different matter and YouTube of course when that arrived which was let's face it around the same time you know 2007 I started with YouTube I think it'd been around longer but I'd not didn't know anything about it Facebook I joined them as soon as they kind of launched or as soon as I found out about them and I did the same
thing you know I shared my videos obviously on YouTube but then also on Facebook and I guess with Facebook that was a good way to promote my hypnosis service my free pain relief relaxation sleep service whatever you want to call it and that's what I did that's what I used it for that's what I used Facebook for I used to share my videos my podcasts onto groups insomnia groups things like that but eventually they got fed up with me and banned me well not banned me but they they banned me from up from you know
posting my new videos so they didn't like it so I had that you know it was handy it was good at the time but and I just stopped because I didn't want to you know well sometimes I'd get some real venomous messages people saying especially the admins of these groups they really take themselves quite seriously sometimes almost it's like a bit of a power trip because they've got a face group face you know you know a group Facebook group which anyone can set up it's not hard to do but there's that little power like you
know they can block people I can be an admin you know so I had some messages I kind of wish I kept them but you know this is years ago decades it's a previous decade it's not even in a previous decade blimey it's in it's two decades ago because we're in a different decade now aren't we 2000 2022 then you've got a decade of 2010 to 2020 and the previous decade before that which going back to 2006 so yeah this is the third decade that I'm doing this blimey ain't that weird I'm sure I didn't
have any grey pubes at the time anyway the I used to get some messages like how dare you you snake oil salesman I'm not selling anything I don't sell anything everything I do is for free I'm not selling anything you devil you you devil worshiper no I'm not I don't worship how did you know how did you know I worship the devil I was like come on man it's hypnosis it's against Christianity don't you know no it's not it's not really there's nowhere in the bible where it says anything about hypnosis as far as I'm
aware so yeah I mean that was quite hard to take sometimes and it's very it was difficult not to get into an argument with people about you know you know what I mean just like well it's not the devil's how you can't argue with someone that says something like what you're doing is the devil's work you can't argue with that because they are dumb and when someone's really really dumb nothing you say is gonna change their mind nothing you say is gonna make them feel better or anything because they're dumb about that particular subject they
might be bright as anything in other ways they might be the kindest loving person in the world but for that particular thing they might have huge amounts of anger and hate spurts out of their nostrils about a particular subject that disagrees with their own well it's not even their own belief system it's a belief system that's been passed on to them so you know get your own belief system then come back to me yeah think for yourself learn to think for yourself then come back then we'll have a discussion okay so yeah it's luckily I
don't have to deal with too much of that kind of stuff these days YouTube was always the worst really though some of the things that people said on YouTube and the only reason I kept going was because I believed in what I was doing I believed well I needed to believe that what I was doing was useful in some way even these recordings that let me boil to sleep they're just me waffling on about nothing for an hour it's meaningless a lot of it just doesn't necessarily have to fall asleep listening to myself oh that's
nice I could actually fall asleep actually really if I'm honest I really could hmm I'm quite tired feeling quite tired maybe it's time to go to sleep maybe so I think if I guess if I just continued and made videos and made a video of every recording I do every podcast episode I do if I make a video of it then I suppose all being well and providing their the content is acceptable and usable and helpful that the audience will grow get more subscriptions more watches people playing the videos and I guess after 500 videos
it would just be a lot different so instead of getting because on my YouTube videos the last live one I did I've done a couple of videos recently there's a 26th of December and the 30th of December one I got 50 and one I got 40 downloads but then I uploaded the podcast and I got 19 downloads and plays rather not downloads plays so I don't know it could get a point where I'm getting hundreds of downloads per episode or plays I keep saying downloads I'm used to downloads now maybe thousands maybe after a year
I might be getting thousands of plays for each video you know maybe who knows who knows so that'd be interesting I guess to if I did a year of this just to test it to see if it's worth my time the energy yeah it might be worth just doing it as a as a study you know do it for a year see if because I think after a year so no nothing grows instantly but I've been kind of I have been active on the website on YouTube for a few months as far as uploading the
latest podcasts and making the odd video so I'm active enough to get some people watching I know it's a small amount but it's still some people you know to get 50 views I know it's a tiny amount of views but a thousand do I get a thousand views a month at the moment so by the end of the year maybe I'll be on 100,000 views or maybe 50,000 views 100,000 views or whatever but I just remember when I was by the time I got to 45,000 views a month I was on 3,000 subscribers something like
that and I was getting it was just growing every day I was getting more and more subscribers just continuous it's almost like it's like a magical thing that just happens and what you need to do is just keep uploading new videos just keep doing it be consistent never give up ever or just keep going through and it works out and that seemed to be what was happening before if I'm going back a long time that was I think that channel ended in 2013 2012 2013 no 2013 I think because I deleted it deleted the channel
silly thing to do I know so by now I might have had um blimey millions of plays a year millions isn't even that much is it really I suppose but I'd like it millions of plays a month as opposed to a thousand so we'll see I mean if I could compete with the podcast where I get um last month I had about 860,000 downloads last month of my podcasts so if I could equal on YouTube what I do on the podcasts then that'd be really cool and the audience is a lot huger on YouTube I
mean it's such a huge audience and I mean the podcast audience is obviously very very large as well for me to be getting what I'm getting but YouTube is just you know massive because with podcasts people listen from different places they listen from Spotify iTunes or Apple podcasts various different podcasts podcast addict my brain's not working at the moment but lots of different podcast places where you can listen CastBox etc but with YouTube it's just one place isn't it really I know you can share the videos on Facebook and various you know social networking and
you can share them on your website but generally it's like one place you go to YouTube so it's different in that way and it means you don't have to leave so if you like watching videos you don't have to leave you can just go and find who you want to listen to or watch oh yeah please subscribe if you are listening or watching on YouTube but so that's kind of how I say I've had my haircut that's about it there's not really much else going on which is good that's why it's boring because if I
was talking about exciting stuff it wouldn't fit in with the pod the podcast being boring would it right I want to go so thank you for listening thank you for watching remember to be kind to yourself because because because because you deserve to be happy be gentle with yourself lots of love bye
