I got to go get a 300 footer.

And it's like, I've seen in this space how easy it is to get caught up in numbers and not impaired, right?

So I was looking at some podcasts that like,

outperforming numbers-wise.

And I look in the comments and...

I'm not going to call them bots.

I'm going to say bots.

It just seems like, oh, another great show, or woo-woo-woo, or things like that.

And I'll go look at my comments, and it's like, people is like, bro, this shit has changed my life.

This shit has deeply impacted me.

I watch this shit with my mama.

I watch this shit with my wife.

I put my son on this.

And it's like, okay, well, then I can get caught up in, you know, or just say something like, oh, I just got 85,000 views.

For one, it's a lot of fucking people.

It's a lot of people.

For two, the impact that it's having is the more important part than the numbers, right?

Like, the numbers really don't prove anything because I'm independent, too.

So, maybe you work with a corporation.

And, of course, if you are Apple, your podcast is owned by Apple, your podcast is owned by Spotify, they're going to make sure you get them numbers.
