Mixing the wild and weird with an amazing all round effort!
In Ep #29 I am covering how Boo-Bury and Lavish run v4v on their show ‘Behind The Sch3m3s’. The unique aspect that they bring is the outstanding adoption of almost all the new P2.0 tags. This brings a variety to the show that I haven’t really seen elsewhere. They also make some decisions (which may or may not be strategic) that I think could have an incentivising effect on how people listen and boost.

Mixing the wild and weird with an amazing all round effort welcome everyone to another episode of the value for value podcast. I'm your host Kyrin as well as host of the Mere Mortals podcast and mere mortals book reviews. And in this podcast I examined the value for value model, how does it compare to the standard advertising model BU and why it is essentially so much better, as well as ways where individual podcasts have implemented the value for value model in their particular shows. And so without any additional ado, let's get into today's one which is behind the schemes. So this is actually kind of a hard podcast to find when you're initially starting out because the schemes is spelt with threes instead of E. So if you're searching for the show, that's a helpful tip right at the start there. I'll read from their own website as to how they put it so they say welcome to boldly go SAE and put the x back in files behind the schemes delves behind the obscure memes behind the cryptic screams and behind the conspiracy dreams. distilling our understanding of wizards behind the curtain with zero answers guaranteed is certain truth denying can be just as fun as bullshit subscription indisputably, morbidly inclined tell a vision obsessed as above or so below grab a towel and don't touch that dial sincerely Come get some blueberry byo three D slash dash g. And then they've got the dictionary definition for podcast meme and conspiracy. So I think that pretty much sums it up. It's a definitely a unique show where they dive into some real weird, wacky stuff, a couple of episodes that I've listened to have dived into some cults, a recent one was on the fellowship of friends, which was pretty fascinating. As well as just sort of more esoteric stuff right at the start of their episodes, they generally have a tarot card reading, they also put in a lot of effort, which I'll talk about in a little second. As to the things they do in this show. From what I can tell, it's 7:30pm ESD, every Monday, and they're definitely part of the no agenda world. So if you listen to my last episode on no agenda, you'll know sort of how they run and the type of topics and things they're interested in. Now, what they do is, they have a lot of individual sections with their show. So right at the start, there's usually a tarot card reading of some sort. They open up phone lines and voice messages, they have clips, they have music, they have an intermission, it's kind of like a radio show if I if I had to put it down to something, but it definitely is a podcast. And you can see that they're, they're more, I would say more podcasters than then radio people. But you know, that's, that's just my sort of interpretation there. I'll go to play a little clip here from Episode 100, which they celebrated not too long ago, only up to 106 at the moment. And this is blammo zap, am I the problem is the title of that. And this will just give you a little bit of a taste of what these two fellas alike.
So just so everyone knows. And there's some people out there that may not be you know, completely familiar with this whole boost thing that we do. But it's a podcasting 2.0 feature. If you send us a boost, it could be a little Bitcoin or something like that. That's usually people. So they sent Satoshis which is a little bit of Bitcoin. And every time they send that we kill a goat. Yes, very simple, very, very simple business model. We stick by it, we endorse it. And we didn't bother laying down its heart this week. So I just want to keep your shoes off the floor. Yeah, this is a special episode. So we're going to actually because there's so much blood, the tarp wouldn't even matter anyway. So we're just gonna, we're gonna like basically lacquer the floor with it. Really imbue it with all the juju that we need to go?
Yeah, so these two fellas a little bit wild a little bit of wacky they've got some unique senses of humor. And I would also recommend from this episode to check out the intro, which was epically done by the dame DeLorean from the ball off the ball, another podcast I've highlighted on here. And you'll really get a sense for I suppose what type of show this is like and whatnot. So let's get into the value for value implementation. How do they implement value for value in their show? Well, one of the things they do is next level adoption of tags. This is probably the podcast I've seen, which might have the most in terms of things that they do, at least in their technical capability. So if you go into it, you'll find chapter not only chapters but the the chapter images that they put, you know, they've they're one of the people who are putting gifts in which is is pretty cool. I haven't seen many The podcasts being able to do that, which is also amazing considering that their shows are three hours long. They're taking the time to put in Chapter images and things like that. Their ability to go live in every single chapter image, there's also a link for whatever topic it is that they're talking about. And they blueberry himself is one of the the boosting maniacs, I hope I mentioned it. So there's blueberry and lavish are the two hosts of that if I forgot to mention that right at the start. And, yeah, that he is also known as the boosting maniac, because he was going around and boosting everywhere, all sorts of shows. So they're so deep into the, I suppose, podcasting 2.0 and hence value for value world that they're really trying their utmost to provide as much things as they can they have a voice line, you can call in. If I go on to their website, they've got a chat room as well, they've got their own sub stack, which has extended, highlighted show notes that, yeah, they go, they go crazy, they put in a lot, a lot of effort. And then in terms of the actual value for value implementation, as I mentioned, they've got booster grams set up, so they can receive them from this episode here, which is episode 103, they woke up and chose violence around the 27 minute mark is how they generally will sort of run this.
And the only reason we can get ahead of ourselves is because this is a value for value production, meaning that we do all of this on the Internet for free, totally accessible, just like the public radio that you always wanted. We're here. Yeah, that's right, there's no paywalls if you find value in our show, you can return that value to us in any way, shape, or form that you see fit. And we have a cornucopia of ways that you can do that. Whether through emails or phone calls, or through financial contributions, or art, or even conversations and giving us ideas or sharing articles and information with us. All of that counts as value. And we appreciate all of it very, very much. And the show wouldn't be the show without you. Listeners like you. And lessness like you. Yeah, it's a nasty scheme. I do make a lot of goat sacrifices. Nice.
There we go. So that's a general indication of it. So they have a quite nice ask that, you know, not highlighting one thing in particular, they give a whole set of examples. And this is, you know, super helpful, because sometimes you do want to, to help out someone but there's, it's just like, not the way that you normally used to it's like, oh, how do I do this? Well, okay, here's seven different ways that you can go about it. So the value for value implementation, I would say, the most of their show is dedicated to being an actual show, there's because they go for three hours long. In generally, there's so much stuff that they cover, which is just outside of it. And you know, they play music, they have live voice calls from people calling in, they have separate voice messages that other people have sent in. So they're quite particular and give just so many different ways for you to do that. Now what's something unique that they do on their own show? Well, the way that they read off booster grams, I suppose is a little bit different in that I haven't seen this particular before. So I'll just play this quick example of of how they do it. This is from season one episode 104 missionary where eye contact is prominent. Nice. From around the 23 minute mark.
Wow, man that is very, very charitable and very seen of you. Yes, thank you very much Peter. And he said, he said Yo Yo yo yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, y'all go well, thank you again. Pete's are we have a named user, man. We got to get I don't know. I'm gonna think of something fun to do for him. You gotta figure it out. We got 2626 from a new face and brand new freak of hazards. Oh, I love those motherfuckers it was 2626 sets through curio caster from chip Doug GIMP, gimp, gimp chip, the goop excellent name choice. Another little section here that I just wanted to highlight was from Episode 103. They woke up and chose violence again around the 16 minute mark and then Satoshis stream came in with 1000 SATs through fountain saying test 1044 from Jake Hyder from the strangest life I've ever known podcast. He said love your artwork and really dig the podcast. Oh, thank you. Hell yeah. Oh, just lining them up. Yeah, we've got a whole ranch full of them people.
Yeah. So a couple of things I want to highlight from there. One is you'll notice some familiar names. So this is Peter and the Jake from the stranger sighs I've ever known podcasts, also an episode that I've highlighted on here before. And they really try and go out of their way to connect with everyone. So like I said, blueberry is a kind of a boosting maniac. And he, you might think ik, that's him providing value back to their shows. But I think that can also be a little bit strategic. And this is another thing I've noticed, which is, most shows tend to really do make demarcate when their value for value section is going to be so it's, you know, I, for example, will have it in the chapter images, the chapter art, you know, Brewster grand rounds that this is where it's at, this is where you can go to find it. So if you're boosting into the show, or providing value in that way, it's really nice to hear and find where that is. What I've noticed they do is, they don't particularly demarcate that. So generally, it's in the front half of the show, from what I can tell, I haven't gone through all 100 episodes, and they obviously, I would say, not have been even using booster grounds for that long, because the booster grams have only been around for about a year. But I think that can be like a strategic decision decision if you wanted it to be. So if you say wanted to keep your audience on like tenterhooks, and a little bit if you really wanted them to maybe listen to more of your show, because some people, I mean, generally, if they're going to be listening in and sending in a booster gram and returning, you know, a value of Satoshi, whatever the amount, they're probably going to be enjoying the show anyway, so they would listen to it anyway. But I could sort of see it being like, you know, what, I'm not going to particularly, really highlight or demarcate where this section is. So you'll have to go find it for yourself. So either you'll have to listen to it, or perhaps your listener, who doesn't like supporting or doesn't want to support or can't support in that way. That way, you can kind of almost like trick them into, into listening to that section. I'm not sure how that would work. And I'm not even necessarily saying that's what these guys are doing. But it is some thoughts that was going through my head of, you know, generally most shows do it this way. And is it because that's the way to do it, or is it just because everyone's following sort of the no agenda type example and following their lead. So that was one little thing I wanted to point point out. Another one is their booster grams. So they have gone so far and beyond with, I suppose making it interesting to boost in. So they've created it, I believe this is in the green room, I haven't got to test this out, because I haven't actually listened in live. But they have this whole section where you can send in a special boost and it will have a different sort of connotation meaning behind it. So there's always a little bit of meaning behind things. So if you send in Tu, Tu, Tu, tu tu or any number of tours, that's like a row of ducks. Dave Jones likes to do the rush Bruce to 112 there's obviously the the triple six double boost and things like that. So they had this whole section of different boosting amounts related to geometries and things like that. I think it was like geometrical patterns. I can't remember it for the for the life of me the everything that was that was connected with that. But what I noticed was they were generally small amounts, they weren't in the sort of 10s of 1000s range, they were all in the kind of hundreds or you know, low 1000s range, which I think could be once again, like a good strategy and a bad strategy in a way. If you just want people coming in and you you know, you just want to give them like an incentive for like a cool boost amount. So that's sort of what I did. I normally don't boost anything less than 1000. But they had a triple six one. And I was like, oh, yeah, screw it, I'll do triple six. That's kind of funny. That's that's what they you know, we're kind of suggesting that I should do. So it could somewhat limit in a way what what someone might potentially send in. But it also could be a good incentive for someone who's first coming in and joining to be like, Oh, here's like a suggested boost amount type of thing. Yeah, I'm on the fence with that one. I think it could work both ways. It could limit yourself but it could also incentivize people to to start boosting. So yeah, that's a tough one. But in any case, I thought it was cool that they they had this sort of special boost.
Tally board, I guess a special boost suggestion board, which could be fun. Probably it's maybe more fun when you're doing it live and you can do a bunch of different ones and I think they had some stuff connected where different stuff would happen depending on the the boost amount in their in their chat room and things like that because they've got so much stuff connected I haven't been able to dive into every single thing that they've done but in any case, very cool show and I have enjoyed this little last week tuning into their episodes and just a very different experience it's it's I would say not your normal podcast it's kind of like halfway between a podcast and a radio show so tune into that if you if you enjoy that now I'll not follow what they're doing and do my own way and this is where we're getting into the booster Graham lounge.
Welcome to devalue for value which to Graham Okay, so after the hectic week that was last one after promoting on fountain I've got a little bit of a subdued amount in terms of number of booster grams, but the value of Oh, my God, it's, it's going up. So thank you everyone, first of all for jumping in. I'm actually going to try and read these out in the highest amount that they've been sent in. So coming in at the top you heard him on just before on the behind the scheme's booster Graham lounge so while they're booster Graham section, but once again it is Pete Ah, the slab who sends 47,500 Wow, thank you so much my friend. And he says Jordan atom media experts who have a healthy distrust of the powers that be their vast experience makes them eminently qualified to deconstruct the media messaging and to do it in an entertaining way. No agenda has earned the pedo pod fluence gold stamp of approval. Yeah, I can't argue with any of that. The only thing that that stands in the way of me watching and listening to this show is I just really, I think I've learned the same thing I have a healthy distrust of the powers that be and the media and and that makes me just not want to watch it or do have any connection with that at all. But yes, the no agenda show very entertaining and informative at the same time. Another one here, which was from Chad Farrow, and he says, in the morning, great job covering such a huge so one thing I love about Na is that the show changes over time, so much of the content comes from the audience. So it really feels like the show has a life of its own. The show does take some getting used to the jingles really put me off at first, but now I'll see you'll hear something in real life and the jingle plays on my head. Thank you for your t y FYC, which is thank you for your contribution. Thank you. Oh, sorry. Thank you for your courage and a speak for putting in extra effort like Thanks for Thanks for clarifying that I would have butchered that last word there. Yeah, that's that's also a thing that I've kind of found jarring. But I've sort of gotten used to as well. Because it's that sort of blend between, I guess you normally hear those jingles. At least when I was growing up that was solely confined to sort of radio land.
I would never hear it in shows or anything like that. And so hearing it on podcast is definitely something that does take a little bit of time to get used to and yeah, just enjoying. So once again, Chad Farrow who's you'll see him around the podcast in 2.0. Well, world as well. Very, very cool. And thank you very much my friend. And thank you for the long messages. I really do enjoy those ones. So here's another one which is from none other than Adam himself. This is Adam curry and he says I love the series 23,750 Whoa, thank you and then he follows that up with a 9500 boosting for the lounge which you'll hear his name hear Him speaking over. So thank you very much, Mr. Adam curry I do appreciate that. And I really enjoyed jumping into your show. This is one here from Austin Murray and he says so founder founder of fountain FM or co founder of it and he says really insightful episode thanks Karen great to see all the booths come in from the promotion to exclamation point even if they are small amount every one introduces another person to devalue for value ethos and hopefully will grow from there. Yes, agreed My friend has been very fun testing out this podcast again after the break that I had and diving into other people's shows and yeah, really trying to kick it off the ground I've got some plans in the future of how I can spread the ethos in a in a more direct way I suppose. In more person to person way which I'll I might share a little bit later. I I like to do things first before I really talk about what I'm going to do. In any case, yes, the spreading the value for value ethos is right up my alley, hence why I have the value for value podcast. Another one here from Lyceum and You'll know who this is because says high five for the review of our podcast the secular foxhole, so did that want to say four or five episodes ago by CO hosts Blair and I are happy to be classified as older gentleman or the best man lindskog Lyceum para pentose on let me spell that out Lyceum NYC, eu um, and then p e r, I P Atos on Twitter, which I'm guessing is Latin sort of sounds has a Latin sounding vibe to it. And yeah, so if you enjoyed that episode, if you want to know more about sort of an ran philosophy about capitalism about things like that, there's a they have a great show to go tune into. So he sent 5277 SATs Thank you, my friend, very much appreciated. And the last one that I had here was from Steven Stefan, Steven with an H Ste p h, a n, and he says returning some value for value thumbs up, hey, thank you very much 29 sets much appreciated, I you know, all these other ones were a lot bigger. But it's still nice to get some just recognition that someone new is tuning into the show. Well, I'm just trying to see if his name appeared on this massive blast booster gram Lance from last week, I'm not particularly seeing him on here. So this might even be a new person. Thank you, Stefan, Stefan very, very much.
Appreciate it. One thing I will just want to add here, and I'll you know, I'll just save this, this is the value for value pitch that we'll do at the end. And one thing I would recommend is if you have a show, doing something like I do, and then also that behind the schemes do, and they do it in a much broader scale than I do, which is including splits into your podcasts. So I would highly recommend not only for your podcast, but maybe even in your real life as well, if you can find ways of of creating a split, so you can share value with people. Now, obviously, this is much easier with Bitcoin and programmable money. And with podcasting, which has a lot of the infrastructure behind it. But yeah, just being able to share that value, it is really really heartening to to know, you know, like Martin has just said, I reviewed his show. And I included him on the split. And so 20% of of everything that came in for that show was going to him whilst it was live, I had a little bit of troubles, actually with the splits on those ones and had to sort of rejig my splits over the last week or two. But nevertheless, I'm putting in the effort to try and do it. And so one of the the real, you know, ethos of value for value is making sure that everyone gets a piece of the pie. And so this is not the model for for someone who wants to be greedy, I would say, or if you are, it's kind of a short term strategy, you're losing out on the long term by by not really, you know, sending the value everywhere. Basically, everything that I get from these, all of this is just going straight back into sending it to other podcasters. Because I would never have gotten to the point where I am without other people, you know, sending something to me first or highlighting something on my show or sending me a booster gram for the first time. You know, Chad Farrow, who popped up here, he was the first one to send me a booster gram for the memorial show my first ever and that was the first ever direct contribution of a monetary value that someone has sent in to the to the mere mortals. And that was amazing. That was such a cool feeling. And, you know, it's hard to it's hard to describe how much that as almost changed my life in a way and yeah, so value for value. That's That's my long pitch for today.
Send it to some other people if you can, if you have the ability to split it to share it, do it as much as you can. And not this doesn't only have to be with with, you know, a monetary payment but it can also be done through sharing something can be telling someone that their show was awesome. Behind the schemes. Your show is awesome, fellas. And yeah, that's that's that's it for today. Thank you everyone for joining me. I'm starting to ramble. Peace out
Mixing the wild and weird with an amazing all round effort welcome everyone to another episode of the value for value podcast. I'm your host Kyrin as well as host of the Mere Mortals podcast and mere mortals book reviews. And in this podcast I examined the value for value model, how does it compare to the standard advertising model BU and why it is essentially so much better, as well as ways where individual podcasts have implemented the value for value model in their particular shows.

So if you're searching for the show, that's a helpful tip right at the start there. I'll read from their own website as to how they put it so they say welcome to boldly go SAE and put the x back in files behind the schemes delves behind the obscure memes behind the cryptic screams and behind the conspiracy dreams. distilling our understanding of wizards behind the curtain with zero answers guaranteed is certain truth denying can be just as fun as bullshit subscription indisputably, morbidly inclined tell a vision obsessed as above or so below grab a towel and don't touch that dial sincerely Come get some blueberry byo three D slash dash g. And then they've got the dictionary definition for podcast meme and conspiracy. So I think that pretty much sums it up. It's a definitely a unique show where they dive into some real weird, wacky stuff, a couple of episodes that I've listened to have dived into some cults, a recent one was on the fellowship of friends, which was pretty fascinating.

So we're just gonna, we're gonna like basically lacquer the floor with it. Really imbue it with all the juju that we need to go?
Yeah, so these two fellas a little bit wild a little bit of wacky they've got some unique senses of humor. And I would also recommend from this episode to check out the intro, which was epically done by the dame DeLorean from the ball off the ball, another podcast I've highlighted on here.

Wow, man that is very, very charitable and very seen of you. Yes, thank you very much Peter. And he said, he said Yo Yo yo yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, y'all go well, thank you again. Pete's are we have a named user, man. We got to get I don't know. I'm gonna think of something fun to do for him. You gotta figure it out. We got 2626 from a new face and brand new freak of hazards. Oh, I love those motherfuckers it was 2626 sets through curio caster from chip Doug GIMP, gimp, gimp chip, the goop excellent name choice. Another little section here that I just wanted to highlight was from Episode 103. They woke up and chose violence again around the 16 minute mark and then Satoshis stream came in with 1000 SATs through fountain saying test 1044 from Jake Hyder from the strangest life I've ever known podcast. He said love your artwork and really dig the podcast. Oh, thank you. Hell yeah. Oh, just lining them up. Yeah, we've got a whole ranch full of them people.
Yeah. So a couple of things I want to highlight from there. One is you'll notice some familiar names. So this is Peter and the Jake from the stranger sighs I've ever known podcasts, also an episode that I've highlighted on here before. And they really try and go out of their way to connect with everyone. So like I said, blueberry is a kind of a boosting maniac. And he, you might think ik, that's him providing value back to their shows. But I think that can also be a little bit strategic. And this is another thing I've noticed, which is, most shows tend to really do make demarcate when their value for value section is going to be so it's, you know, I, for example, will have it in the chapter images, the chapter art, you know, Brewster grand rounds that this is where it's at, this is where you can go to find it. So if you're boosting into the show, or providing value in that way, it's really nice to hear and find where that is. What I've noticed they do is, they don't particularly demarcate that. So generally, it's in the front half of the show, from what I can tell, I haven't gone through all 100 episodes, and they obviously, I would say, not have been even using booster grounds for that long, because the booster grams have only been around for about a year. But I think that can be like a strategic decision decision if you wanted it to be. So if you say wanted to keep your audience on like tenterhooks, and a little bit if you really wanted them to maybe listen to more of your show, because some people, I mean, generally, if they're going to be listening in and sending in a booster gram and returning, you know, a value of Satoshi, whatever the amount, they're probably going to be enjoying the show anyway, so they would listen to it anyway. But I could sort of see it being like, you know, what, I'm not going to particularly, really highlight or demarcate where this section is. So you'll have to go find it for yourself. So either you'll have to listen to it, or perhaps your listener, who doesn't like supporting or doesn't want to support or can't support in that way. That way, you can kind of almost like trick them into, into listening to that section. I'm not sure how that would work. And I'm not even necessarily saying that's what these guys are doing. But it is some thoughts that was going through my head of, you know, generally most shows do it this way. And is it because that's the way to do it, or is it just because everyone's following sort of the no agenda type example and following their lead. So that was one little thing I wanted to point point out. Another one is their booster grams. So they have gone so far and beyond with, I suppose making it interesting to boost in. So they've created it, I believe this is in the green room, I haven't got to test this out, because I haven't actually listened in live. But they have this whole section where you can send in a special boost and it will have a different sort of connotation meaning behind it. So there's always a little bit of meaning behind things. So if you send in Tu, Tu, Tu, tu tu or any number of tours, that's like a row of ducks. Dave Jones likes to do the rush Bruce to 112 there's obviously the the triple six double boost and things like that. So they had this whole section of different boosting amounts related to geometries and things like that. I think it was like geometrical patterns. I can't remember it for the for the life of me the everything that was that was connected with that. But what I noticed was they were generally small amounts, they weren't in the sort of 10s of 1000s range, they were all in the kind of hundreds or you know, low 1000s range, which I think could be once again, like a good strategy and a bad strategy in a way. If you just want people coming in and you you know, you just want to give them like an incentive for like a cool boost amount. So that's sort of what I did. I normally don't boost anything less than 1000. But they had a triple six one. And I was like, oh, yeah, screw it, I'll do triple six. That's kind of funny. That's that's what they you know, we're kind of suggesting that I should do. So it could somewhat limit in a way what what someone might potentially send in. But it also could be a good incentive for someone who's first coming in and joining to be like, Oh, here's like a suggested boost amount type of thing. Yeah, I'm on the fence with that one. I think it could work both ways. It could limit yourself but it could also incentivize people to to start boosting. So yeah, that's a tough one. But in any case, I thought it was cool that they they had this sort of special boost.
Tally board, I guess a special boost suggestion board, which could be fun. Probably it's maybe more fun when you're doing it live and you can do a bunch of different ones and I think they had some stuff connected where different stuff would happen depending on the the boost amount in their in their chat room and things like that because they've got so much stuff connected I haven't been able to dive into every single thing that they've done but in any case, very cool show and I have enjoyed this little last week tuning into their episodes and just a very different experience it's it's I would say not your normal podcast it's kind of like halfway between a podcast and a radio show so tune into that if you if you enjoy that now I'll not follow what they're doing and do my own way and this is where we're getting into the booster Graham lounge.
Welcome to devalue for value which to Graham Okay, so after the hectic week that was last one after promoting on fountain I've got a little bit of a subdued amount in terms of number of booster grams, but the value of Oh, my God, it's, it's going up. So thank you everyone, first of all for jumping in. I'm actually going to try and read these out in the highest amount that they've been sent in. So coming in at the top you heard him on just before on the behind the scheme's booster Graham lounge so while they're booster Graham section, but once again it is Pete Ah, the slab who sends 47,500 Wow, thank you so much my friend. And he says Jordan atom media experts who have a healthy distrust of the powers that be their vast experience makes them eminently qualified to deconstruct the media messaging and to do it in an entertaining way. No agenda has earned the pedo pod fluence gold stamp of approval. Yeah, I can't argue with any of that. The only thing that that stands in the way of me watching and listening to this show is I just really, I think I've learned the same thing I have a healthy distrust of the powers that be and the media and and that makes me just not want to watch it or do have any connection with that at all. But yes, the no agenda show very entertaining and informative at the same time. Another one here, which was from Chad Farrow, and he says, in the morning, great job covering such a huge so one thing I love about Na is that the show changes over time, so much of the content comes from the audience. So it really feels like the show has a life of its own. The show does take some getting used to the jingles really put me off at first, but now I'll see you'll hear something in real life and the jingle plays on my head. Thank you for your t y FYC, which is thank you for your contribution. Thank you. Oh, sorry. Thank you for your courage and a speak for putting in extra effort like Thanks for Thanks for clarifying that I would have butchered that last word there. Yeah, that's that's also a thing that I've kind of found jarring. But I've sort of gotten used to as well. Because it's that sort of blend between, I guess you normally hear those jingles. At least when I was growing up that was solely confined to sort of radio land.
I would never hear it in shows or anything like that. And so hearing it on podcast is definitely something that does take a little bit of time to get used to and yeah, just enjoying. So once again, Chad Farrow who's you'll see him around the podcast in 2.0. Well, world as well. Very, very cool. And thank you very much my friend. And thank you for the long messages. I really do enjoy those ones. So here's another one which is from none other than Adam himself. This is Adam curry and he says I love the series 23,750 Whoa, thank you and then he follows that up with a 9500 boosting for the lounge which you'll hear his name hear Him speaking over. So thank you very much, Mr. Adam curry I do appreciate that. And I really enjoyed jumping into your show. This is one here from Austin Murray and he says so founder founder of fountain FM or co founder of it and he says really insightful episode thanks Karen great to see all the booths come in from the promotion to exclamation point even if they are small amount every one introduces another person to devalue for value ethos and hopefully will grow from there. Yes, agreed My friend has been very fun testing out this podcast again after the break that I had and diving into other people's shows and yeah, really trying to kick it off the ground I've got some plans in the future of how I can spread the ethos in a in a more direct way I suppose. In more person to person way which I'll I might share a little bit later. I I like to do things first before I really talk about what I'm going to do. In any case, yes, the spreading the value for value ethos is right up my alley, hence why I have the value for value podcast. Another one here from Lyceum and You'll know who this is because says high five for the review of our podcast the secular foxhole, so did that want to say four or five episodes ago by CO hosts Blair and I are happy to be classified as older gentleman or the best man lindskog Lyceum para pentose on let me spell that out Lyceum NYC, eu um, and then p e r, I P Atos on Twitter, which I'm guessing is Latin sort of sounds has a Latin sounding vibe to it. And yeah, so if you enjoyed that episode, if you want to know more about sort of an ran philosophy about capitalism about things like that, there's a they have a great show to go tune into. So he sent 5277 SATs Thank you, my friend, very much appreciated. And the last one that I had here was from Steven Stefan, Steven with an H Ste p h, a n, and he says returning some value for value thumbs up, hey, thank you very much 29 sets much appreciated, I you know, all these other ones were a lot bigger. But it's still nice to get some just recognition that someone new is tuning into the show. Well, I'm just trying to see if his name appeared on this massive blast booster gram Lance from last week, I'm not particularly seeing him on here. So this might even be a new person. Thank you, Stefan, Stefan very, very much.
Appreciate it. One thing I will just want to add here, and I'll you know, I'll just save this, this is the value for value pitch that we'll do at the end. And one thing I would recommend is if you have a show, doing something like I do, and then also that behind the schemes do, and they do it in a much broader scale than I do, which is including splits into your podcasts. So I would highly recommend not only for your podcast, but maybe even in your real life as well, if you can find ways of of creating a split, so you can share value with people. Now, obviously, this is much easier with Bitcoin and programmable money. And with podcasting, which has a lot of the infrastructure behind it. But yeah, just being able to share that value, it is really really heartening to to know, you know, like Martin has just said, I reviewed his show. And I included him on the split. And so 20% of of everything that came in for that show was going to him whilst it was live, I had a little bit of troubles, actually with the splits on those ones and had to sort of rejig my splits over the last week or two. But nevertheless, I'm putting in the effort to try and do it. And so one of the the real, you know, ethos of value for value is making sure that everyone gets a piece of the pie. And so this is not the model for for someone who wants to be greedy, I would say, or if you are, it's kind of a short term strategy, you're losing out on the long term by by not really, you know, sending the value everywhere. Basically, everything that I get from these, all of this is just going straight back into sending it to other podcasters. Because I would never have gotten to the point where I am without other people, you know, sending something to me first or highlighting something on my show or sending me a booster gram for the first time. You know, Chad Farrow, who popped up here, he was the first one to send me a booster gram for the memorial show my first ever and that was the first ever direct contribution of a monetary value that someone has sent in to the to the mere mortals. And that was amazing. That was such a cool feeling. And, you know, it's hard to it's hard to describe how much that as almost changed my life in a way and yeah, so value for value. That's That's my long pitch for today.
Send it to some other people if you can, if you have the ability to split it to share it, do it as much as you can. And not this doesn't only have to be with with, you know, a monetary payment but it can also be done through sharing something can be telling someone that their show was awesome. Behind the schemes. Your show is awesome, fellas. And yeah, that's that's that's it for today. Thank you everyone for joining me. I'm starting to ramble. Peace out
