Episode Sixteen: SAP 2: Mike Pretends This Episode is a Podcast Ah, the woe of creation. "Make a podcast" had been an idea jotted down quickly, unthinkingly, in several different notebooks for many years. Eventually I sat down and wrote episode one but even after writing it I just let the file lay dormant in my google drive with no action around it. I've never felt any sort of greater calling to "be a podcaster" or anything. I think everyone can agree that what I create is technically a podcast, sure, but not really what most people would think of as a "podcast" in general. I'm not saying what I make is good or so intellectual you can't understand it or anything like that. Quite the opposite. What I make is bad. It's boring, it's lazy. I get that. And some days, it seems, it's just harder than usual to sit down and write and then record something resembling a podcast. This was one of those days. Apologies in advance to anyone who actually listens to it because there's really nothing interesting going on here. It's not such a disaster that it's fun, and there's no redeeming word play or compelling ideas that make it worthwhile outright. It's just me, feeling obligated to make something, so I "make something" and it's boring. Perhaps this marks the time where I re-focus on writing, and pump the brakes on the audio work. Thank you for listening, see you next week. Listen to this and all other episodes of the No Happy Nonsense Podcast on: Podbean iTunes Google Podcasts Stitcher |
