But at the end of the day, I love this shit.

It's addicting, right?

It is.

Especially when you figure out what works for you, right?

Then you're like, well, I could do it over and over again.

It's not a problem.

I'll never run out of money.

But when it comes down to it, I think the secret sauce that I found out for myself and what works for my podcast is just simple three to five minute length.

I know in 2025, there's a lot of short clips now.

You see a lot of content creators going out there and giving sort of like motivational speeches and it goes viral throughout social media.

So I think the same concept that I had started two years ago, people were just downloading, dude, like five, 10, 20 episodes at a sitting, right?

Because they're just very short content creations that they could absorb and it motivates them, right?

So I didn't really go into interviewing people on my podcast because I just didn't want to, dude.

At the end of the day, I mean, it wasn't more about like,

Going ahead and doing it, it was just more of time because I wasn't treating it like my main source of income.

I was just like, dude, I want to do it as a passion project, and I just want to figure it out.

I always tell people, like, I'm green, dude.

I'm the type of dude that just takes imperfect action.

So when we started going up the ranks on Apple, then my engineer was just like, hey, dude, we should start interviewing people.

And I was just like, all right, but I'm going to start interviewing people that I like.
