Our Worst Enemy: Thumbnails

We’re back with another wide-ranging conversation straight from the heart of creator life—where podcast growth, social media strategy, and the push for authenticity all collide.We kick things off talking about consistency and momentum—why skipping a few days of posting reels isn’t the end of the world, and how audience loyalty can keep engagement strong. From there, we dive into storage solutions, including creative ways to repurpose old Xbox hard drives to handle massive content files without breaking the bank.Then it’s all about editing and workflow—why mobile apps like CapCut can sometimes outperform Premiere Pro for speed and captions, and when desktop editing still makes sense. We also tackle technical myths, like why manual mode and golden hour aren’t the only ways to get great shots, and how locked-off tripod shots can often look more cinematic than overused gimbals.Later, we explore branding, community, and collaboration—how font choices, visual grids, and transparent contest judging can strengthen your creative identity and grow engagement. We also touch on AI’s impact on content creation and the growing role of Blender for 3D animation and motion graphics, opening up new possibilities for creators.Of course, it wouldn’t be a real conversation without some laughs—gaming tangents, light-hearted stories, and reflections on work-life balance keep things relatable while still offering practical advice for creators at every level.If you’ve ever wondered how to maintain momentum, stay creative under pressure, or build a community around your work, this episode has plenty of insights and inspiration.🔗 Website: https://www.cortandluke.com
