Youthful energy is hitting v4v, but can it sustain itself?
In Ep #32 I am covering how Cole McCormick runs v4v on his show ‘AMERICA+’. The unique aspect that Cole brings is his desire to set himself apart by becoming known as the guy who gave away the most Sats to his audience, as well as a willingness to go out of his way to onboard family and friends into the value for value world.
Huge shoutout to Floydianslips, Sir Lurksalot (especially for the cover art suggestion) and Carl6007. A handsome group to say the least.

Unknown:
youthful energy is hitting V4V but can it sustain itself? Welcome, dear listener to another episode of the value for value show. My name is Kyrin, I'm host of the Mere Mortals and Mere Mortals book reviews podcast. But I also do this weekly podcast where I examine how other people are implementing the value for value model. Now, what is the value for value model? Well, it is essentially an alternative to the standard ways that people might monetize or be able to implement a lifestyle through their podcasts. So things such as using Patreon create, perhaps creating a paywall, perhaps using the advertising blur, I'm not a fan of that model. But this is essentially where you create a show a piece of digital content or something that is easily mass producible. And you put a lot of time, time, effort energy into that a lot of value is created through that. And you ask that people return that value in whatever way informed that they would like to do that.
So there's the three T's time, talent, and treasure. And we're going to examine how other people are asking for that value back so that we can get an idea for our particular shows maybe how we can implement something that they've done, which is something I've done multiple times throughout this process of sort of discovery and learning what other people are doing. And today we're diving into America plus by Cole McCormick. So his tagline is seeking innovation and truth question mark, let's develop narratives to be more autonomous from large entities a call McCormick experience. So calls a young American guy believe he's in his mid 20s. And he is just investigating different ways that he can improve himself, I'd say so it's kind of like a, I wouldn't exactly say a self improvement podcast, but you can definitely see where he's investigating ideas that he's really into, such as the value for value model, such as Bitcoin, as well as his creative pursuits, like filmmaking, believe he works in a weird store. So he's probably got some interesting stories and, and things going on there.
And yeah, he's just a very energetic young man who's trying to podcast for the first time and create something for himself. So his rough schedule is, he's been doing it weekly since January of 2022. So he's up to about 29 episodes at the moment, the standard length is I'd say, about 35 to 45 minutes, sometimes a little bit over sometimes a little bit under of that. And the format is, there's no particular format, he goes on long rants, a lot of the time, most of the time, it's just him, I have heard him with another guest, at least once. But I believe he's also said that's not his particular priority. So you're going to be getting a more monologue type deal coming through. But he does have some plans for the future to change that. And that'll sort of tie into with a couple of comments I have about his podcast in general, but there's no set sections. In particular, I'm going to give you a little bit of a dose and you can feel some of this youthful energy coming through. So this is from about the seven minute mark on Episode 24, which is cold due to do SATs and Kobe, we are in a moment where we are evolving. And I just believe that man we are evolving man. We are a people on Earth man, we are here. You are listening to me and I am taking your value in as well. And now we have the ability to send value to each other instantly.
No matter where we are, no matter where we stand. No matter anything, man. And so I'm over here I'm in LA. I'm working at some Weed Shop. And I got people from around the world send me Bitcoin. And I'm sending the people from around the world Bitcoin. Like that's incredible. That's incredible. It's incredible. It's incredible. It's incredible. And we're gonna be reading the booths today. I'm reading the books, we have so many boosts 1000s of Satoshis 1000s Absolutely brilliant. So you could see he's definitely got the energy there. And is very excited. Very emotional. And Hell yeah, I mean, there's something about that which is infectious. And I love hearing that. I forgot to mention this right at the start as well but the show name America plus it is with a plus symbol, not P L U S, but the actual symbol itself and it's all joined together. So don't make the mistake of putting a space in because it actually can be harder to find. So American plus all in one thing with no spaces and with the plus sign itself. I'm going to jump now into his value fair value implementation. How does he typically go about this? Well, he comes from the no agenda world So he knows the rough kind of ideas related to this, he's mentioned Adam curry a bunch of times before. And I'd say at the moment, because he's young, and money is a very important thing, when you're younger, that that's, I suppose, a lot more of a driving factor. And also, you know, when you're young, you don't have as much money. So it definitely dominates the mind a little bit more. So a lot of his section is related to the monetary value of sending it back and forth, although he has also talked about how you can help out in other ways, but definitely, the focus is on that. So I'm going to jump now on to Episode 27, which is called to do it's called Project future. And this is around the 2720 mark, where you can hear him talking about value for value, and in particular, some of his booster grams, but for the next five plus years, maybe 10 years, you know, that's what we're doing. And this show is going to be be built from that, you know, with sounds and music. And so that's value for value.
And with that, with this time that I'm giving you right now, I am seeking for that value to be returned. And that's the feedback loop that I'm seeking. This is not me selling anything. This is me, documenting the development. And I want to hear from you. Please engage the booths that I'm going to be reading or the comments. I'm only going to be reading the boosts with the comments. So comment something in, engage, say anything. Say anything, this is a new time. This is a new era. This is a new way to engage with content. And this is a discussion of projecting a loving future. This is a discussion of us have a community of high level creative people projecting a loving, full, successful, abundant future.
This can happen. This can happen with our systems. This can happen with our media. This can happen with our bodies. We can have a better future we can have a healthier life. And with that the boosts I have three boosts I'm reading three boosts from the lowest to the highest at x v underscore Herrera, they sent in five sets. They gave me a thumbs up thumbs up thank you. Thank you Xavi. From Carrie McCormick that's my mom. What up mom? Thank you, mom. You send in 10 SATs. Oh my god. I think that is your first 10 SATs ever sent mom? You gotta tell me that. I didn't know I didn't know you're like all of a sudden boosting. G's mom. I don't know you're already on this.
She comments on on on number 26 good podcast makes me think good I'm glad mom I'm happy you're thinking I'm happy you're using your brain mom at pole star with 190 SATs they said I just boost before I even started listening because I know this episode be fire. Hell yeah, you do. Hell yeah, dude, you know exactly what's going on man. I'm bringing truth I'm slinging dope. I'm taking mega rich bro like we are here wow man I love that and you know there's there's something like I said with the infectious energy getting five sets getting 10 sets man I wish I could I don't get that excited getting you know 20,000 Or something like that. So that that that is definitely really really cool I love I love to see the the enthusiasm and things of like this nature so he typically Yeah, we'll get a booster gram read it out on the show. That's kind of the standard behavior as I mentioned before, he doesn't have any particular sections so it's kind of just some time within the show usually towards the later part of it but I'm not sure there's any particular strategic decision on his end but maybe there's not too sure on that a couple of things from that was well obviously the energy fucking awesome I love I love that shit. But also the the promises so is he talks a lot about what he's going to do what he wants as well. And this is I guess, where the the youthful energy is, is is cool where it's you've got a lot of time to explore to do different things to you know, just try something out and be like fuck it I'm gonna do it no matter what. And then it's also the question okay, but can you deliver on this so this is the the fun part.
I guess of watching his journey. So he's 29 episodes deep. And I can definitely say, you know, I usually tune into the first one as well. And I can see the the improvements and he's definitely is improving, it's got some cool new stuff, especially in the latest episodes in terms of soundboard and stuff, obviously still needs a bit of work on, you know, Mike technique to not be popping those assets and things like that. But the cool thing I suppose is watching his little journey is okay, how much value is he going to be able to create for me, because, you know, there is so many different things that he can do and so many I guess it's just really cool to to see someone who's, who's a lot younger. So most of the people I've, I've done these episodes on before have probably been older than myself, I've probably been the youngest, and I'm 30 at this stage in my life.
And it's just really cool to see, okay, the value for value implementation for him as kind of like a promise almost, it's like, Hey, I'm gonna be there's cool stuff coming down the line, I'm working on it, you know, and I've got time for this, I'm gonna keep being consistent and kudos to him. He has been banging on consistent, weekly episodes, which is really, really awesome. And I just like that is he's got the core fundamentals there. It's, you know, he understands the value for value system, he understands the looping and the feedback, he highlights that, you know, he's getting new people on and whatnot. And that'll get me straight into the something unique section, which he's up to. So obviously, from there, one of the highlights was calling out the mum what up mom, I wish my mum was was boosted me I've got bloody Lazy, Lazy, lousy family members, that's for sure. But that that is really cool, to be honest. So one of the things that I know I'm particularly been doing and obviously he's done here, it's not like his mom just randomly found the fountain app, he obviously took the time to tell her about it to say, you know, this is what I'm asking for my audience. And, you know, if you can help participate in that, that'd be awesome. And she went out on her own and did it. The cool thing is, I suppose recognizing those points when kind of forcing things on, it's not too much of a forcing on a family member and whatnot. I've been hanging around podcasting 2.0 year and a bit now. And it would have been impossible for it was so difficult for me to just get, you know, myself sorted to be able to receive booster grams and whatnot.
Forcing that upon a family member or a loved one or a friend would just have been not fun, it wouldn't have been fun for me or for them. But the cool thing is, I've actually sort of been doing that myself, I've gotten a couple of people into the fountain app, in particular friends, like really good friends. And you know, they've sent in through some booster grams, and I'm pretty sure some of them, you know, almost at the stage where they will refill their wallet to be able to send in more. That's, that's really cool. So it's knowing I guess, when the technology and that's something unique is, is not only just doing stuff and just, you know, hoping that someone will will help will, will follow along. And you know, understand if you've never heard of booster gram before, take the hours that it requires to understand the whole steps but also to go out of your way to get friends and family members on. Like he's done with his mum here. I think that's really cool. I think that is definitely something a little bit unique and, and I had well, from all the other shows I've listened to, I haven't heard a single person calling out their mom for being a mad lad and a mad mad deem perhaps is more appropriate and and boosting their own show. So that's, that's a unique and first that I've seen, I also want to highlight something probably his most most unique thing is his, his his idea of value for value and one of the things that he wants to accomplish. So I'm just going to let him speak for himself. This is from Episode 28, which is titled cruise create. And it's from about the 43 Minute 40 Mark. What's exciting though, I do have an announcement that I need to speak about next week.
If you're one, if you're a regular listener, you're gonna want to be more of a regular listener, because next week is the last Sunday of the month. And what that means is because it's the last Sunday of the month, I will be doing a Satoshi giveaway, I'm doing a big promotion. This is a concept that I've been playing with for a minute. And you know, when I run it by people, they really don't know what to think of it. But that's just because it's it's a part of a totally new system. But I'm going to be doing another promotion I'm giving away 2000 SATs per per lesson. So that's the maximum amount of SATs that you You can get work, it's going to be a monthly thing I'm going to be, I have this idea to do it for a year, I'm going to be doing one promotion a month, for a year.
And so now, next week is going to be one of 12, one of 12. And that's going to all build us something else. Okay? I'm telling you, you're gonna wake up one day and the show is going to be better. All right, that's how this works. That's how this works. And so with that, it's going to be next week, we're calling it the, the SAT Slinging Slasher episode, one of 12 sat Slinging Slasher, one of 12. And we're gonna be giving away SATs and we're going to be doing sounds and we're going to be doing, which can we talk about narratives, man, we're talking about what we're manifesting, we're talking about what we want to do in our lives.
And so I couldn't be any happier about it, I couldn't be any more excited about it. Man, I liked that clip, it was kind of the bundling up of everything that I was just talking about for lots of energy, lots of um, gunners, and then also the value section that he really is hoping for. And so he has said previously that he wants to be known as the guy who gave away the most sets to his audience. I think that's a that's a really cool idea. I think that is definitely a way to distinguish yourself and and make yourself known as, you know, it's kind of like a highlighting thing. It's like, look, I preach what a fucking practice, I care about this, I care deeply about this whole value for value system. And I'm willing not only to put time into creating a podcast, and look, there's a shit ton of money because you need to buy mics, and you need to upload onto hosts, which usually you have to pay for and things like this. So there is that that monetary expense, which doesn't actually go to the audience, though. But in his case, he said, No, look, I'm going to do it for you as well, I'm going to incentivize you to to give back to become part of this economy, and I want to be the best at it. I want to be the one doing the most. And kudos to him. I actually have seen this. So funnily enough, I saw it after I listened to the episode, it was on the fountain app, I saw his promotion and was like, Oh, shit, I missed it. But that was cool. I got to listen to his episode anyway. And you can really easily see it in the amount of boosts because, you know, if you're small, like he is at the moment, and like this podcast is, you'll learn to get out of no three or five, or maybe even less one or zero booster grams coming in. But when you do propose promoted on fountain, I've experienced this myself, you'll get maybe 30 or 50. Coming in, which is really cool. So that's a, I suppose getting into the sort of meta thing behind that. What's What's he really trying to do? Well, he's talked about how he wants to build it first, and then kind of sell it. So it's almost like, you know, what, I'll, I'll take that initial outlay of expenses, you know, it costs money to give away sets, what, who'd have thought that, but it's also the aspect of look, I don't necessarily initially want this to be, from the very get go making money, I'm happy to kind of slog away to build it to make my podcast better to grow the value that people can receive from my show. And, you know, eventually that'll catch up to me. It's called kind of like a life philosophy. I personally, believe that myself, I'm more of the build first, and then, you know, good things will come kinda later. If you want a contrasting opinion to this and how it can also work the other way, I would actually recommend checking out a recent episode I did on the mere mortals with Pete Smithson, actually, it'll come out after this. So it'll be about a week after this comes out. And with him, he talks about how he was getting a into a new hobby of his which was collecting rare plants, it rare indoor plants, but immediately wanted to know how you can transfer that into that outlay of capital to something where he could get it in return. And I kind of contrasted that with how I spend so much of my days just doing handstands, which has no benefit. And you know, maybe one day if I wanted to make money from that by teaching people or joining Cirque du Soleil or something, I could do that. But you know, I don't I don't think about that at this moment. And Cole is very similar. So that's a that's a really cool, unique aspect that I think he's doing and with that, we'll we'll wrap it up and get on to my own personal booster Graham lounge.
Welcome to the value for value, Mr. Graham. So for the Those who don't know the booster gram Lounge is where I read out the messages, the boost the booster grams that have been coming in over this past week. And I thank everyone for their, their support of the show. And then also it provides some content because there's some meaty stuff going on. And in particular, I'm seeing a couple of new faces, which is very encouraging. And some also big messages. So let's not dig around current, let's get straight into it. So in no particular order, actually in the order in which they just came in, we have flooding in slips for 3425 SATs. Thank you very much, Mr. floydian. slips. So this is Joshua Dennis of the latest episode, the previous episode podcasting for value.
And he says, Thanks for the review of podcasting for values advertising did reach originate from my piehole. Okay, they were good, very good. Thanks for clarifying that. I only use it with podcasts I listened to I'm just fumbling around trying to figure this out. And I really appreciate your feedback. I also realized a few crutch phrases I use too much just for verbal hotdogs. Man, I'm the same if when I listened to buy my stuff a lot to try and make it better. And it could get depressing how often I say like an M. And a recent one for me has been etc, I say etc, all the time. That will. So thank you very much, Josh, I have another one here from I believe this is a new one. So this is at Sur looks a lot also on the fountain at 1003 sites. And he said I heard the Godfather shout out your show.
So I checked it out. I like what you're doing. I think it's great exclamation mark podcasters probably need resources like this to show like this show to help them with ideas and inspiration. I love to see all the informal communities developing around the podcasting to point out and value for value initiatives, some around the tech, the techniques and so on. I take that kind of organic growth around the ideas and implementation implementations to be a sign that it is a healthy community developing. And so this was on the value for value episode I did on no agenda. Yeah, mate. Very, very encouraging. Look, I, I like to do my little bit, I stick to my strengths. I'm not a coder. I'm also not the greatest marketer, but I think I'm good at kind of analyzing things and getting into the philosophy. And when I end look, I just really enjoy listening to new shows. I used to do this before, there was an incentive to do it. When I was first starting out before podcasting 2.0 was even a thing back in 2019 2020, I would just listen to a bunch of new shows. A lot of them would be Ozzie podcasts, and I'd reach out to them and you know, send some value their way by leaving them an iTunes review and things like this. This is way fucking better. I love this shit way more. So. I 100% agree, Mister, mister sir Alexa lot, all of these cool things going on, and it's just gonna get better and cooler. So thank you very much for that. I've got 38. So let's try and bring this fucking energy car. You have 38 sites from a new person. This is call 6007. They say keep it going exclamation mark. I will call Thank you very much my friend. I have another 1003 sets from here. So it looks a lot and he says your cover art being taken from a show you're reviewing makes it look like an episode of The reviewed show. In my podcast player here you have no agenda show graphics. So it looks like an episode of no agenda. You need a value for value show logo that you can overlay the reviewed show graphic, maybe a border a banner or badge so that the episode is visually recognizable as an episode of the value for value podcast, my friends, that is a brilliant idea. I don't know why I didn't think of that a lot. I will do that.
Maybe not for this episode, because I've got some shit to do today, but definitely for the next one. And yeah, you're right, I should take that little bit of extra effort to highlight it and make it look like something different. That is a fantastic idea. And then finally, once again from Sir looks a lot, he said a big boost to 10,028 Whoa, well, he says I'm not a podcaster but I'm fascinated by the growth in energy and creativity around podcasting 2.0 and especially the value for value model. Listening to your show, I've discovered that it gives me value not only as entertainment or to feed my curiosity, but it also serves as a means of discovery of new shows to check out thanks, exclamation mark. Hey, no, thank you mate. That was actually one of the purposes of this as well it was you know, kind of selfish on my part. I do enjoy getting into these new shows making some new friends like Cole Cole, actually, if you listen to the previous episodes and a booster Graham in for encouraging me to check out his show, which I have subsequently done. And it's a great way of making new friends.
It's great way of discovering new podcasts of finding some crazy motherfuckers like Cole who are super energetic and I love that shit. So and you know, connecting with people like you getting new ideas, as so many cool different things going on. I'll give you a little sneak peek here as well. My friends actually you know what Fuck it, this is going to be my my value for value request for today, I would highly recommend checking out the last month that goals of the mere mortals podcast. So this was for August of 2022. And one of the things that I have said that I'm going to do so I'm a little bit like coal in this respect, which is talking about things that I'm going to do before I've, I've actually actually done them. But I've been going to a lot of crypto meetups here in Brisbane, some of those solely around Bitcoin, some of those, which are kind of more NFT type ones, others, which are just general, Latina ones as well. And I've had a number of offers just in general for for me to talk about value for value and the Lightning Network and how podcasting 2.0 You can make, you know, an income and, and monetize your podcast, I fucking hate that word, but monetize your podcast. And one of the things I'm going to be doing is, is creating a bit of a PowerPoint presentation. I hope those offers are still there. I I've been that was sort of been occurring over the last year and they'll kind of informal ones so not not like hey, booked me in for your, for your for a presentation, but I'm pretty sure most of them still stand. So what I'm planning on doing is creating a bit of a PowerPoint presentation with the highlight the main focus being value for value and then the secondary part is okay, and this is why you can use Bitcoin to enable this, you know, the the premise of programmable money well, here it is in fucking full flesh, here's how I'm doing it. And here's how I intend to make a lifestyle and a living from this. So that is just one of the things I would highlight checking out.
I'd love any input on that. So if you want more details, go check out that episode of the Mere Mortals monthly goals of August 2022. That's available both as video on on on YouTube and then also as just in your normal podcasting players and whatnot. Everyone thank you for joining I'd also obviously check out Cole show if you're enjoying the energy and want to get into it. Also, another way of searching for his show was called McCourt, Cormac C O L, E, and then MC ce o r m IC k, because it can be kind of hard to find that the the first guy because there's a kind of like other feed that's floating around and whatnot so highly recommend checking out his show as well and also all of the other shows that have highlighted on here before and other than that, I do hope you're having a fantastic day wherever you are in the world K K K K Kyrin out
youthful energy is hitting V4V but can it sustain itself? Welcome, dear listener to another episode of the value for value show. My name is Kyrin, I'm host of the Mere Mortals and Mere Mortals book reviews podcast. But I also do this weekly podcast where I examine how other people are implementing the value for value model. Now, what is the value for value model? Well, it is essentially an alternative to the standard ways that people might monetize or be able to implement a lifestyle through their podcasts. So things such as using Patreon create, perhaps creating a paywall, perhaps using the advertising blur, I'm not a fan of that model. But this is essentially where you create a show a piece of digital content or something that is easily mass producible. And you put a lot of time, time, effort energy into that a lot of value is created through that. And you ask that people return that value in whatever way informed that they would like to do that.
So there's the three T's time, talent, and treasure. And we're going to examine how other people are asking for that value back so that we can get an idea for our particular shows maybe how we can implement something that they've done, which is something I've done multiple times throughout this process of sort of discovery and learning what other people are doing. And today we're diving into America plus by Cole McCormick. So his tagline is seeking innovation and truth question mark, let's develop narratives to be more autonomous from large entities a call McCormick experience. So calls a young American guy believe he's in his mid 20s. And he is just investigating different ways that he can improve himself, I'd say so it's kind of like a, I wouldn't exactly say a self improvement podcast, but you can definitely see where he's investigating ideas that he's really into, such as the value for value model, such as Bitcoin, as well as his creative pursuits, like filmmaking, believe he works in a weird store. So he's probably got some interesting stories and, and things going on there.
And yeah, he's just a very energetic young man who's trying to podcast for the first time and create something for himself. So his rough schedule is, he's been doing it weekly since January of 2022. So he's up to about 29 episodes at the moment, the standard length is I'd say, about 35 to 45 minutes, sometimes a little bit over sometimes a little bit under of that. And the format is, there's no particular format, he goes on long rants, a lot of the time, most of the time, it's just him, I have heard him with another guest, at least once. But I believe he's also said that's not his particular priority. So you're going to be getting a more monologue type deal coming through. But he does have some plans for the future to change that. And that'll sort of tie into with a couple of comments I have about his podcast in general, but there's no set sections. In particular, I'm going to give you a little bit of a dose and you can feel some of this youthful energy coming through. So this is from about the seven minute mark on Episode 24, which is cold due to do SATs and Kobe, we are in a moment where we are evolving. And I just believe that man we are evolving man. We are a people on Earth man, we are here. You are listening to me and I am taking your value in as well. And now we have the ability to send value to each other instantly.
No matter where we are, no matter where we stand. No matter anything, man. And so I'm over here I'm in LA. I'm working at some Weed Shop. And I got people from around the world send me Bitcoin. And I'm sending the people from around the world Bitcoin. Like that's incredible. That's incredible. It's incredible. It's incredible. It's incredible. And we're gonna be reading the booths today. I'm reading the books, we have so many boosts 1000s of Satoshis 1000s Absolutely brilliant. So you could see he's definitely got the energy there. And is very excited. Very emotional. And Hell yeah, I mean, there's something about that which is infectious. And I love hearing that. I forgot to mention this right at the start as well but the show name America plus it is with a plus symbol, not P L U S, but the actual symbol itself and it's all joined together. So don't make the mistake of putting a space in because it actually can be harder to find. So American plus all in one thing with no spaces and with the plus sign itself. I'm going to jump now into his value fair value implementation. How does he typically go about this? Well, he comes from the no agenda world So he knows the rough kind of ideas related to this, he's mentioned Adam curry a bunch of times before. And I'd say at the moment, because he's young, and money is a very important thing, when you're younger, that that's, I suppose, a lot more of a driving factor. And also, you know, when you're young, you don't have as much money. So it definitely dominates the mind a little bit more. So a lot of his section is related to the monetary value of sending it back and forth, although he has also talked about how you can help out in other ways, but definitely, the focus is on that. So I'm going to jump now on to Episode 27, which is called to do it's called Project future. And this is around the 2720 mark, where you can hear him talking about value for value, and in particular, some of his booster grams, but for the next five plus years, maybe 10 years, you know, that's what we're doing. And this show is going to be be built from that, you know, with sounds and music. And so that's value for value.
And with that, with this time that I'm giving you right now, I am seeking for that value to be returned. And that's the feedback loop that I'm seeking. This is not me selling anything. This is me, documenting the development. And I want to hear from you. Please engage the booths that I'm going to be reading or the comments. I'm only going to be reading the boosts with the comments. So comment something in, engage, say anything. Say anything, this is a new time. This is a new era. This is a new way to engage with content. And this is a discussion of projecting a loving future. This is a discussion of us have a community of high level creative people projecting a loving, full, successful, abundant future.
This can happen. This can happen with our systems. This can happen with our media. This can happen with our bodies. We can have a better future we can have a healthier life. And with that the boosts I have three boosts I'm reading three boosts from the lowest to the highest at x v underscore Herrera, they sent in five sets. They gave me a thumbs up thumbs up thank you. Thank you Xavi. From Carrie McCormick that's my mom. What up mom? Thank you, mom. You send in 10 SATs. Oh my god. I think that is your first 10 SATs ever sent mom? You gotta tell me that. I didn't know I didn't know you're like all of a sudden boosting. G's mom. I don't know you're already on this.
She comments on on on number 26 good podcast makes me think good I'm glad mom I'm happy you're thinking I'm happy you're using your brain mom at pole star with 190 SATs they said I just boost before I even started listening because I know this episode be fire. Hell yeah, you do. Hell yeah, dude, you know exactly what's going on man. I'm bringing truth I'm slinging dope. I'm taking mega rich bro like we are here wow man I love that and you know there's there's something like I said with the infectious energy getting five sets getting 10 sets man I wish I could I don't get that excited getting you know 20,000 Or something like that. So that that that is definitely really really cool I love I love to see the the enthusiasm and things of like this nature so he typically Yeah, we'll get a booster gram read it out on the show. That's kind of the standard behavior as I mentioned before, he doesn't have any particular sections so it's kind of just some time within the show usually towards the later part of it but I'm not sure there's any particular strategic decision on his end but maybe there's not too sure on that a couple of things from that was well obviously the energy fucking awesome I love I love that shit. But also the the promises so is he talks a lot about what he's going to do what he wants as well. And this is I guess, where the the youthful energy is, is is cool where it's you've got a lot of time to explore to do different things to you know, just try something out and be like fuck it I'm gonna do it no matter what. And then it's also the question okay, but can you deliver on this so this is the the fun part.
I guess of watching his journey. So he's 29 episodes deep. And I can definitely say, you know, I usually tune into the first one as well. And I can see the the improvements and he's definitely is improving, it's got some cool new stuff, especially in the latest episodes in terms of soundboard and stuff, obviously still needs a bit of work on, you know, Mike technique to not be popping those assets and things like that. But the cool thing I suppose is watching his little journey is okay, how much value is he going to be able to create for me, because, you know, there is so many different things that he can do and so many I guess it's just really cool to to see someone who's, who's a lot younger. So most of the people I've, I've done these episodes on before have probably been older than myself, I've probably been the youngest, and I'm 30 at this stage in my life.
And it's just really cool to see, okay, the value for value implementation for him as kind of like a promise almost, it's like, Hey, I'm gonna be there's cool stuff coming down the line, I'm working on it, you know, and I've got time for this, I'm gonna keep being consistent and kudos to him. He has been banging on consistent, weekly episodes, which is really, really awesome. And I just like that is he's got the core fundamentals there. It's, you know, he understands the value for value system, he understands the looping and the feedback, he highlights that, you know, he's getting new people on and whatnot. And that'll get me straight into the something unique section, which he's up to. So obviously, from there, one of the highlights was calling out the mum what up mom, I wish my mum was was boosted me I've got bloody Lazy, Lazy, lousy family members, that's for sure. But that that is really cool, to be honest. So one of the things that I know I'm particularly been doing and obviously he's done here, it's not like his mom just randomly found the fountain app, he obviously took the time to tell her about it to say, you know, this is what I'm asking for my audience. And, you know, if you can help participate in that, that'd be awesome. And she went out on her own and did it. The cool thing is, I suppose recognizing those points when kind of forcing things on, it's not too much of a forcing on a family member and whatnot. I've been hanging around podcasting 2.0 year and a bit now. And it would have been impossible for it was so difficult for me to just get, you know, myself sorted to be able to receive booster grams and whatnot.
Forcing that upon a family member or a loved one or a friend would just have been not fun, it wouldn't have been fun for me or for them. But the cool thing is, I've actually sort of been doing that myself, I've gotten a couple of people into the fountain app, in particular friends, like really good friends. And you know, they've sent in through some booster grams, and I'm pretty sure some of them, you know, almost at the stage where they will refill their wallet to be able to send in more. That's, that's really cool. So it's knowing I guess, when the technology and that's something unique is, is not only just doing stuff and just, you know, hoping that someone will will help will, will follow along. And you know, understand if you've never heard of booster gram before, take the hours that it requires to understand the whole steps but also to go out of your way to get friends and family members on. Like he's done with his mum here. I think that's really cool. I think that is definitely something a little bit unique and, and I had well, from all the other shows I've listened to, I haven't heard a single person calling out their mom for being a mad lad and a mad mad deem perhaps is more appropriate and and boosting their own show. So that's, that's a unique and first that I've seen, I also want to highlight something probably his most most unique thing is his, his his idea of value for value and one of the things that he wants to accomplish. So I'm just going to let him speak for himself. This is from Episode 28, which is titled cruise create. And it's from about the 43 Minute 40 Mark. What's exciting though, I do have an announcement that I need to speak about next week.
If you're one, if you're a regular listener, you're gonna want to be more of a regular listener, because next week is the last Sunday of the month. And what that means is because it's the last Sunday of the month, I will be doing a Satoshi giveaway, I'm doing a big promotion. This is a concept that I've been playing with for a minute. And you know, when I run it by people, they really don't know what to think of it. But that's just because it's it's a part of a totally new system. But I'm going to be doing another promotion I'm giving away 2000 SATs per per lesson. So that's the maximum amount of SATs that you You can get work, it's going to be a monthly thing I'm going to be, I have this idea to do it for a year, I'm going to be doing one promotion a month, for a year.
And so now, next week is going to be one of 12, one of 12. And that's going to all build us something else. Okay? I'm telling you, you're gonna wake up one day and the show is going to be better. All right, that's how this works. That's how this works. And so with that, it's going to be next week, we're calling it the, the SAT Slinging Slasher episode, one of 12 sat Slinging Slasher, one of 12. And we're gonna be giving away SATs and we're going to be doing sounds and we're going to be doing, which can we talk about narratives, man, we're talking about what we're manifesting, we're talking about what we want to do in our lives.
And so I couldn't be any happier about it, I couldn't be any more excited about it. Man, I liked that clip, it was kind of the bundling up of everything that I was just talking about for lots of energy, lots of um, gunners, and then also the value section that he really is hoping for. And so he has said previously that he wants to be known as the guy who gave away the most sets to his audience. I think that's a that's a really cool idea. I think that is definitely a way to distinguish yourself and and make yourself known as, you know, it's kind of like a highlighting thing. It's like, look, I preach what a fucking practice, I care about this, I care deeply about this whole value for value system. And I'm willing not only to put time into creating a podcast, and look, there's a shit ton of money because you need to buy mics, and you need to upload onto hosts, which usually you have to pay for and things like this. So there is that that monetary expense, which doesn't actually go to the audience, though. But in his case, he said, No, look, I'm going to do it for you as well, I'm going to incentivize you to to give back to become part of this economy, and I want to be the best at it. I want to be the one doing the most. And kudos to him. I actually have seen this. So funnily enough, I saw it after I listened to the episode, it was on the fountain app, I saw his promotion and was like, Oh, shit, I missed it. But that was cool. I got to listen to his episode anyway. And you can really easily see it in the amount of boosts because, you know, if you're small, like he is at the moment, and like this podcast is, you'll learn to get out of no three or five, or maybe even less one or zero booster grams coming in. But when you do propose promoted on fountain, I've experienced this myself, you'll get maybe 30 or 50. Coming in, which is really cool. So that's a, I suppose getting into the sort of meta thing behind that. What's What's he really trying to do? Well, he's talked about how he wants to build it first, and then kind of sell it. So it's almost like, you know, what, I'll, I'll take that initial outlay of expenses, you know, it costs money to give away sets, what, who'd have thought that, but it's also the aspect of look, I don't necessarily initially want this to be, from the very get go making money, I'm happy to kind of slog away to build it to make my podcast better to grow the value that people can receive from my show. And, you know, eventually that'll catch up to me. It's called kind of like a life philosophy. I personally, believe that myself, I'm more of the build first, and then, you know, good things will come kinda later. If you want a contrasting opinion to this and how it can also work the other way, I would actually recommend checking out a recent episode I did on the mere mortals with Pete Smithson, actually, it'll come out after this. So it'll be about a week after this comes out. And with him, he talks about how he was getting a into a new hobby of his which was collecting rare plants, it rare indoor plants, but immediately wanted to know how you can transfer that into that outlay of capital to something where he could get it in return. And I kind of contrasted that with how I spend so much of my days just doing handstands, which has no benefit. And you know, maybe one day if I wanted to make money from that by teaching people or joining Cirque du Soleil or something, I could do that. But you know, I don't I don't think about that at this moment. And Cole is very similar. So that's a that's a really cool, unique aspect that I think he's doing and with that, we'll we'll wrap it up and get on to my own personal booster Graham lounge.
Welcome to the value for value, Mr. Graham. So for the Those who don't know the booster gram Lounge is where I read out the messages, the boost the booster grams that have been coming in over this past week. And I thank everyone for their, their support of the show. And then also it provides some content because there's some meaty stuff going on. And in particular, I'm seeing a couple of new faces, which is very encouraging. And some also big messages. So let's not dig around current, let's get straight into it. So in no particular order, actually in the order in which they just came in, we have flooding in slips for 3425 SATs. Thank you very much, Mr. floydian. slips. So this is Joshua Dennis of the latest episode, the previous episode podcasting for value.
And he says, Thanks for the review of podcasting for values advertising did reach originate from my piehole. Okay, they were good, very good. Thanks for clarifying that. I only use it with podcasts I listened to I'm just fumbling around trying to figure this out. And I really appreciate your feedback. I also realized a few crutch phrases I use too much just for verbal hotdogs. Man, I'm the same if when I listened to buy my stuff a lot to try and make it better. And it could get depressing how often I say like an M. And a recent one for me has been etc, I say etc, all the time. That will. So thank you very much, Josh, I have another one here from I believe this is a new one. So this is at Sur looks a lot also on the fountain at 1003 sites. And he said I heard the Godfather shout out your show.
So I checked it out. I like what you're doing. I think it's great exclamation mark podcasters probably need resources like this to show like this show to help them with ideas and inspiration. I love to see all the informal communities developing around the podcasting to point out and value for value initiatives, some around the tech, the techniques and so on. I take that kind of organic growth around the ideas and implementation implementations to be a sign that it is a healthy community developing. And so this was on the value for value episode I did on no agenda. Yeah, mate. Very, very encouraging. Look, I, I like to do my little bit, I stick to my strengths. I'm not a coder. I'm also not the greatest marketer, but I think I'm good at kind of analyzing things and getting into the philosophy. And when I end look, I just really enjoy listening to new shows. I used to do this before, there was an incentive to do it. When I was first starting out before podcasting 2.0 was even a thing back in 2019 2020, I would just listen to a bunch of new shows. A lot of them would be Ozzie podcasts, and I'd reach out to them and you know, send some value their way by leaving them an iTunes review and things like this. This is way fucking better. I love this shit way more. So. I 100% agree, Mister, mister sir Alexa lot, all of these cool things going on, and it's just gonna get better and cooler. So thank you very much for that. I've got 38. So let's try and bring this fucking energy car. You have 38 sites from a new person. This is call 6007. They say keep it going exclamation mark. I will call Thank you very much my friend. I have another 1003 sets from here. So it looks a lot and he says your cover art being taken from a show you're reviewing makes it look like an episode of The reviewed show. In my podcast player here you have no agenda show graphics. So it looks like an episode of no agenda. You need a value for value show logo that you can overlay the reviewed show graphic, maybe a border a banner or badge so that the episode is visually recognizable as an episode of the value for value podcast, my friends, that is a brilliant idea. I don't know why I didn't think of that a lot. I will do that.
Maybe not for this episode, because I've got some shit to do today, but definitely for the next one. And yeah, you're right, I should take that little bit of extra effort to highlight it and make it look like something different. That is a fantastic idea. And then finally, once again from Sir looks a lot, he said a big boost to 10,028 Whoa, well, he says I'm not a podcaster but I'm fascinated by the growth in energy and creativity around podcasting 2.0 and especially the value for value model. Listening to your show, I've discovered that it gives me value not only as entertainment or to feed my curiosity, but it also serves as a means of discovery of new shows to check out thanks, exclamation mark. Hey, no, thank you mate. That was actually one of the purposes of this as well it was you know, kind of selfish on my part. I do enjoy getting into these new shows making some new friends like Cole Cole, actually, if you listen to the previous episodes and a booster Graham in for encouraging me to check out his show, which I have subsequently done. And it's a great way of making new friends.
It's great way of discovering new podcasts of finding some crazy motherfuckers like Cole who are super energetic and I love that shit. So and you know, connecting with people like you getting new ideas, as so many cool different things going on. I'll give you a little sneak peek here as well. My friends actually you know what Fuck it, this is going to be my my value for value request for today, I would highly recommend checking out the last month that goals of the mere mortals podcast. So this was for August of 2022. And one of the things that I have said that I'm going to do so I'm a little bit like coal in this respect, which is talking about things that I'm going to do before I've, I've actually actually done them. But I've been going to a lot of crypto meetups here in Brisbane, some of those solely around Bitcoin, some of those, which are kind of more NFT type ones, others, which are just general, Latina ones as well. And I've had a number of offers just in general for for me to talk about value for value and the Lightning Network and how podcasting 2.0 You can make, you know, an income and, and monetize your podcast, I fucking hate that word, but monetize your podcast. And one of the things I'm going to be doing is, is creating a bit of a PowerPoint presentation. I hope those offers are still there. I I've been that was sort of been occurring over the last year and they'll kind of informal ones so not not like hey, booked me in for your, for your for a presentation, but I'm pretty sure most of them still stand. So what I'm planning on doing is creating a bit of a PowerPoint presentation with the highlight the main focus being value for value and then the secondary part is okay, and this is why you can use Bitcoin to enable this, you know, the the premise of programmable money well, here it is in fucking full flesh, here's how I'm doing it. And here's how I intend to make a lifestyle and a living from this. So that is just one of the things I would highlight checking out.
I'd love any input on that. So if you want more details, go check out that episode of the Mere Mortals monthly goals of August 2022. That's available both as video on on on YouTube and then also as just in your normal podcasting players and whatnot. Everyone thank you for joining I'd also obviously check out Cole show if you're enjoying the energy and want to get into it. Also, another way of searching for his show was called McCourt, Cormac C O L, E, and then MC ce o r m IC k, because it can be kind of hard to find that the the first guy because there's a kind of like other feed that's floating around and whatnot so highly recommend checking out his show as well and also all of the other shows that have highlighted on here before and other than that, I do hope you're having a fantastic day wherever you are in the world K K K K Kyrin out
