¡Podcasting 2.0 es excelente, maravilloso y fantastico!
In Ep #34 I am covering how Robert Sasuke implements v4v on his multiple shows but in particular ‘Te Invito Un Café’ and ‘Esto Es Podcast 2.0’. The unique aspect that Robert brings is highlighting the value for value (valor por valor) model to a latino audience and his combination of this with other more traditional forms of the dreaded word ‘monetisation’ (bleh).
A big shoutout to AbleKirby, Petar The Everpresent & This Is The Future for their support. Bloody legends!

podcasting 2.0 es excelente Maravilloso y fantastica0. Bienvenidos to another episode of the value for value podcast. My name is Kyrin, I'm host of the Mere Mortals as well as the Mere Mortals book reviews podcast, but also do this show where I go into the value for value model and how other people around the world implementing value for value into their own shows and creating something unique, something different. Now we'll go into a bit of a highlight of exactly what they're doing and how you can maybe take away some ideas for your very own shows. And today, I have a very special one, it's going to be a bit of a unique format compared to most of my other episodes. And I'm calling this Tim Vito a podcast 2.0. And this is by Robert suitcase. So this is actually a guy who does multiple shows, and his name is Robert Suzuki, he is from the Dominican Republic, and he does them in Spanish. So I will be playing only one clip this time, just so you can get a feel for what he sounds like. But I won't, I won't force you guys to listen to Spanish because you probably won't understand it too much. And basically, he has a whole bunch of podcasts. So there's one called Tim Vito own cafe, which is basically I'm inviting you to a coffee, he's got another modo solopreneur so this is like the mode of being an entrepreneur on your own SOS podcast. 2.0. So this is podcasting 2.0. And there's a couple of other shows as well. All in all, he's done this for a long time, I believe it's since about 2010, if I'm correct, and he's got 1400 episodes of the term veto and cafe 200 Plus for the podcasting 2.0 150 Plus for the modo solopreneur. So he does a lot, he does a whole lot of shows. And these are in different formats as well. So the term veto and cafe is more of a daily episode, usually five to 10 minutes in length. And it's about personal development, Applied Psychology on the daily SOS podcast 2.0 Is is like kind of a diary of his best advice, techniques and tools to elevate your level, your level of podcast, I'm reading these, I'm translating them in my mind as I'm doing it. So hence the small gap. And the model solopreneur is a weekly podcast where you can learn about the experience of being a an entrepreneur, as a solo on your own. So lots of different shows and different formats and lengths and things like that, you know, the SOS podcast 2.0 is closer to half an hour in length in general and so many different types of episodes. I'll read out here from his main show a couple of the titles, so actions so that you to force yourself to not procrastinate do patterns para la storia. So it's like a day of history is launching the Suzuki network. So this is his kind of network of all the podcasts. He does a whole lot of different things. So I won't get into that too much. And it's all kind of around the ideas of podcasting of personal development and of psychology. So if you're a Spanish speaker of some sort and you're interested in any of these, I'd highly recommend tuning into one of them. But I'll play you just a small section here at the start of one of his episodes. This is from the one I just mentioned, Day of history, launching the Cisco network and you can get a feel of what he sounds like and his kind of quality and whatnot.
Or only happy so the superspeciality as si s ne li at the oil kings survey and also they lend you the sweet baby dogs is three mammals Suzuki network it gives us Aroer our la musica de la ego see is all like Italy stars women either women either stayed wherever epi Savio in India they already know Salim of the Toba lives through thorough Rubina is the podcast Eva mas por que por que vamos Lancer oficialmente Restlet todos los podcast que tenemos so I hope what you're getting from that is he is very professional. He's got all the bells and whistles, the applause, the music, the feedings, the feed out the you know, nice deep sounding voice. One of the things I actually enjoy about listening to him in Spanish is my Spanish is definitely conversational at a relatively high level. I can understand everything he's saying there. So he was basically welcoming us saying that he was going to tell us about the podcasts off the introduction and the music and things like that, but he also enunciate really clearly he's got a nice sounding voice, etc, etc. So what does he do? And how does he implement value for value in his shows? And why am I especially drawn to talking about him. So he does quite a few different things. And I'll get more into that to this special section as well. But he almost always offers what you can get right at the front. So you'll he'll really offer okay, like, this is a podcast about psychological development, or this is how you can help with your family problems. This is if you want to be a better podcaster here's some tips and tricks, and especially his esto es podcast 2.0 Well, you can tell just from the title name, this is podcasting 2.0 That he is obviously found podcasting to. So I remember actually coming across him in the mastodon chat probably a year ago roughly where he would kind of join, I'm not even sure his English is that great. And yet, he is still taking the time and effort to really learn about all these new things going on in podcasting and whatnot, which I think is really admirable of him to dive into, because it is certainly hard. Being in a in a space in an area where you are not the I suppose, expert, and where obviously, there's a big language barrier and things like that. So I no shows is always saying like, Hey, this is how you can, I can help you do this thing. This is why you should do your, I suppose your interviews in this sort of way, here's some reasons why you should take better notes and how you can take better notes for your podcasts and things like this.
So he's always just jam packing. Unlike most of the other shows, I've I've covered on here, which I'd put more in the entertainment sort of category, these shows are definitely more, here's how I can help you, you know, kind of how to type of things. So his value, I suppose, in the upfront offering is is super critical. And I suppose not necessarily what you need to do to have a I suppose a lifestyle supporting a family, he's got two kids and a wife, and, and whatnot. But it's certainly I think it's probably the easiest way to have a definitely a here's a problem, and that I can fix for you. And this is why you should tune in.
So he's got tutorials and guides and things like that he actually had a caster pod walkthrough to say how you can not only kind of the more high level, you know, these are some tips you could use and things like this, he'll he'll dive deep into actual implementations of you want to self host your podcast. Well, I've done the hard work, I've you know, spent the hours doing it, he is a guide and walkthrough, and I can actually help you with that as well. And so this is where he's getting into this kind of mix between value for value, as well as more of a business type structure. That being said, when he does do value for value, and so I believe all of his shows are on the podcasting two point in index and he's got himself set up with a node, I'm not exactly sure where that goes to at the moment. I can actually just look quickly right here and it says value for value lightning BTC. And if I click on that, it takes me to Yeah, just a note that he's got Satoshi stream so he's got Satoshi stream set up so he's set up for booster grams and I here's a little a fun one. I am actually a little bit of a Don Juan in the podcasting 2.0 Because I have I have broken a fair few people's booster grabbing virginity and so I broke his a fair while ago. And yeah, he did the I suppose the kind of standard thing he you know, read it out on the show, and he actually had a really cool viewpoint, which was a kind of questioning, okay, why why was the first you know, I've been doing this for ages. He's, you know, for 1010 plus years.
He talked about podcasting 2.0 on his shows, well, before I was aware of any of his shows and whatnot. You know, why was a gringo from Australia, the first person to booster gram in and even though he, you know, he has quite a few shows and has lots of people listening and things like that. And at a really cool discussion, I guess with himself about wealth and generosity. And you know, is Australia a wealthy country? Because because we're generous, or was I generous because I'm wealthy and you know, sent him through and it was it was a meager amount of sets. It wasn't it wasn't I wasn't breaking the bank for myself either. I think it was, you know, a couple of dollars worth or something. But But yeah, he he does do value for value in the sense that I've traditionally shown him here on the booster grams and things like that. But he mixes it with the, I suppose the kind of business His type strategy and so this is where I'll get on to the something unique section.
And this is definitely the mix of traditional and value for value. So he has, I don't believe he has a paywall anywhere, but it's definitely you know, if you want early access to one of his shows, if you want to be a premium, or I believe the word is freemium nowadays, which was kind of, you know, extra benefits, but you can still get the main stuff for free. He does that. So for example, on SLS podcast, 2.0, and 10, v2, and cafe, he's got a $3 a month, sort of subscription, and you can discount get discounts and other stuff for free for those who are already supporting him and things like that. But he also does the value for value and, and says, look, I've got, you know, a bitcoin address here, I've got my shows set up on fountain and whatnot. He's very active on the hive blockchain and does videos there and shows, you know, this is how you can do this thing. This is how you can, you know, gain, I suppose, you know, Hive money or SATs, if you've got the hive set hive converter set up for for doing these sorts of things, and this is how you can get onto Hi, this is how you can get on to podcasting. 2.0 So, it's definitely introducing I suppose the value for value model in a not 100% deep way, you know, I'd say more of a probably 5050 split to a completely unknown audience. I you know, people who speak only Spanish, because that is, you know, there's not a mastodon version of podcasting 2.0 in Spanish, you know, the main shows, every single show I've covered here has been a an English show, obviously, because I speak English as my primary language. So that's kind of more drawn to me. But it is definitely starting from an definitely an American, and then going even further out that it's expanding into an English context. So I think it's really cool that he's doing this kind of mix between the two and an introducing value for value in a completely different way. This isn't just him as well, there are other, I would say, probably full time podcasters I was gonna use the word professional, but I think a lot of the people I've covered on here have been very professional podcasters but not many have been full time. podcasters and so other people who do this, for example, the Darknet diaries, Jack rightside podcast junkies, harried around survival podcast or Jacksboro speaker, I'm not sure how you pronounce his name, most of them tend to have a kind of mix of value for value thrown in and this is kind of one of the unique things you don't have to be 100% value for value, it's, it can be an add on, you know, I me personally, I've gone 100% The value for value way because I'm, I suppose a bit more if you want to put it in a negative way fanatical in a nicer way you might be so you might say I idealistic but in any case, it doesn't need to, if you're wondering, you know, I don't see how I can support myself you know, Karen's only getting maybe three or five booster grams a week coming in through the value for value show that you know, that's not enough to be able to, you know, have a lifestyle with the and pay for the bills if you've got you know, a wife and two kids for example, like Robert does, but you can add on us like an extra little benefit it can be a kind of secondary side stream it won't perhaps work as well you might have find yourself hitting a limit because people will be like No, he's not really reading out the booster grams on the show and during the the kind of creating that feedback loop he's not fully implementing I suppose some of the ethos with regards to setting a price on his own product you know, he's he's set a price of $3 monthly for many of his shows, and many people will only pay that much and might not even do more when he could be getting more. So yeah, it's it's, I suppose a personal thing that you have to decide on if you're at least interested in this route. Do I want to go all the way there's other kinds of concerns related to to advertising and how that can be, you know, kind of sensorial in nature. You don't want to piss off your advertisers by saying something wrong or, you know, dare you even say something bad about the advertiser themselves, you know, the that sort of money flow can can make things a little bit more different difficult, but you know, that doesn't mean that you have to swear off those things entirely.
Another one, which I wanted to say was a technique that he did some time back which I I thought it was really interesting, and I haven't really seen anyone do this previously. So for Episode 14 101, and Congrats on getting that far thing, you're on March 7 2022. So March of this year, he had ti UC so 10 Petone Cafe is Yara e esta vez and seddio. And then I kind of shocked face. So that means 10 Vito, and on Cafe is closing, and this time, I'm serious or like it's serious. And basically in that episode, he was saying, I'm going to close the this stop this podcast, I've gotten up to 1400 episodes, you know, I'm tired. I'm I'm struggling to find this kind of being justifying the amount of effort I'm putting in and you know, daily podcast for kind of 10 years, can can drain someone a bit, I imagine. And the basically he was saying, Look, unless I reached a kind of donation amount of people sending in a value to me, and this time, particularly in the monetary form, I'm going to have to close the podcast. And what actually happened was he had another bonus episode, I think about two weeks after that. Yeah. So March 21. And it says, bonus and food todo de ti you see, ya start definitely though ese es como cetera. So it's now defined, and I know what it will be, or how it will be. And so this was basically him saying, I, you know, I got an outpouring of support. And you can include me in this way. Because even though I don't particularly listen to this podcast at all, I, for one, I don't really like the small shows, you know, four minutes, five minutes in length, I prefer longer ones. And it's also on a topic personal development, which, yeah, I've kind of gone through that in the past. And it's not as interesting to me as it once was. Yet, he had yet I still donate it to that show. So I was like, Oh, I don't want you to close your podcast. I'm obviously here and interested, I'll throw some SATs your way.
And, and this actually really worked for him. And I can't remember exactly what happened. But I believe he reached his his target, which was, I think, a couple of $100 us worth of, of monetary support. And so said, Okay, maybe you're not insane to like the podcast is going to close for serious, but I thought that was a cool technique to really, you know, we've we've seen kind of the sad puppy before, if you've had a, you know, a bad week or two of having the monetary support come in, but taken at the next level, to the kind of ultimatum of look, the podcast is going to close unless you helped me out.
It worked. It's maybe you know, mid probably only works if you're, if you're super serious about it, as well. So if you do this, you know, kind of five weeks, five times a year, maybe it neared might not work as well. But I think that was a kind of, you know, an interesting idea. And look, this, these kinds of things are hard, doing 1400 episodes, no matter the length of it is draining that I you know, I've done maybe a 500 across all of my shows. And that is a supreme effort. And so I can see how, if you're doing something, and it's not, you're not getting the value back for it, you know, one is probably best to look inside first and go, Okay, you know, is the value that I'm creating actually valuable? Or am I just in my head thinking it's, it's, it's super cool and fun. And yet, it's only going to appeal to an audience of, you know, three people in the world? Well, okay, then then that way, you know, unless those three people are billionaires, you're probably going to have some some problems, and generous billionaires like that. So, I think there is, you know, some techniques and tricks like that, which, you know, we haven't seen, particularly in other shows, which where it's like, Look, you if you're, if you're struggling if you really need to make a decision. And if you especially if you're following the value for value model, and you you want to make that you perhaps your primary way of of people supporting back look, this, this, I need to see it, I need to see that from from the audience from you people listening. So with that being said, you know, unless I get millions that I'm collecting the value for value. Now, that's not true. So, I think there's a lot of cool things that he's doing especially just in the kind of Latino world and and I suppose promoting value for value to a whole new section of audience of people which that They're very unlikely to find it. Let's do the current memes means that that are available ie the English language because it's just there's just not that much there. So a lot of portable load value for value is making its way internationally I think that's really really cool. So there's plenty of other things I would just say if you're interested at all you can go to Suzuki dot network that's his website and that's probably one of his website is got quite a few of them and you can go there and and check out his shows is it's got a lot of other details contacts you can send him things via that website as well. If you go to the contact info section and yeah, I know he does appreciate I know he reads these things and receives booster grams and the emails and and appreciates is the support he gets from other people as well.
So his actual electronic email is all at Robert sosuke.com If you're interested so yeah, just want to do a big shout out for him. And with all that being said, I'm going to go now on to my own booster Graham lounge. Welcome to the value for value gram Okay, so it's not a huge week for the booster grams this week. But I do have three coming in which I'm very very appreciative of. So we've got eight sets from this as the future and he just says it's rare exclamation marks that's related to the rare encounter episode from last week. The next one is from Abel Kirby, none other than Abel can be himself through curio caster, which is cool. And he said 6599 sites and he says narrative question mark a really common question mark. I heard them talking about this on this show. And look my so two things One was they were slightly annoyed that I equated anime with Naruto. And you know this is because on their show they actually listened to I'm gonna say more refined tastes so more probably, you know less.
Mainstream is the nice way of putting it kind of like pop culture trash might be the the other but the thing is for me, Naruto is equated with anime in my head because even though I used to watch Dragonball Z and you know more like the kids types ones were dijamin and things like that, you know, Pokemon. They always were cartoons in my mind and Naruto was I think the first one which I watched, which was subbed instead of dubbed so this was where you just see the subtitles and yet you hear the original kind of Japanese voices. And that was the first anime that I personally you know, watched and I would have said oh, this is an anime and yeah, it's just acquainted in my mind and honestly I think most other people you know if I'd listed out some of the shows that they listened to people would go what? Because they are more obscure more definitely harder to find and more more further refined tastes I would say so. As fuck it you know what I'm not gonna apologize Naruto is anime it's just as valid. Another one we've got here from the ever present PTR and he says so this was 3750 SATs Thank you my friend through fountain he says crapper is not an adjective and then he has a poop emoji.
Obviously I must have said that and the cool thing with a fountain as you can see when the booths came in so that was around the 17 Minute 43 Mark so I probably said crapper at some point but you know I'm not going to apologize for my language either fuck up you know once again much appreciated for for everyone and like I said we'll go into my own value for value. This is value for value podcast I put this out with the hope that those who are listening can can gain some tips and techniques and tools that they can perhaps take for their own podcasts perhaps you're using this for as a mechanism to find new podcasts and things like that I you know there's very many different ways you could be getting value from this maybe even you just like to hear me laugh you know that's that's also cool. And I do request value back in return for that now how you want to do that can be in many ways you could share the the show to a friend who's listening and go oh, you know what they I think they might enjoy this. You could create a clip on fountain I know many people do that. And that is also a beautiful way of shot highlighting a particular part of the show that you liked. You can send in a suggestion of another value for value show that I I would maybe enjoy listening to and you think that they're doing something cool.
That is very much appreciated. And then of course, I always appreciate Brewster grams and SATs coming in. So set the streaming SATs high on whichever podcast app that you're listening to. And I'm hoping it's a podcasting 2.0 app, because I also put chapters in and things like that. And, you know, sent me through a booster gram, you decide the value on what you got from this show. So if it's high, if it's low, that's up to you. And I am very much appreciative of all the support that comes in. So with that all being said, I would just yet once again, recommend checking out Roberts, a suitcase, podcast if you are bilingual of any sort and want to practice your Spanish as well. He's got a beautiful voice, nice and clear enunciation. So it's very understandable and he speaks in relatively slow as well. So he's, it's a very nice podcast to listen to any of them if you're interested in those topics and want to practice your Spanish and also, you know, support someone who's doing cool stuff out support someone who's spreading value for value into the Latino world. I think that's really cool. So, with all that being said, Ciao for now. Kyrin out
podcasting 2.0 es excelente Maravilloso y fantastica0. Bienvenidos to another episode of the value for value podcast. My name is Kyrin, I'm host of the Mere Mortals as well as the Mere Mortals book reviews podcast, but also do this show where I go into the value for value model and how other people around the world implementing value for value into their own shows and creating something unique, something different.

Or only happy so the superspeciality as si s ne li at the oil kings survey and also they lend you the sweet baby dogs is three mammals Suzuki network it gives us Aroer our la musica de la ego see is all like Italy stars women either women either stayed wherever epi Savio in India they already know Salim of the Toba lives through thorough Rubina is the podcast Eva mas por que por que vamos Lancer oficialmente Restlet todos los podcast que tenemos so I hope what you're getting from that is he is very professional. He's got all the bells and whistles, the applause, the music, the feedings, the feed out the you know, nice deep sounding voice. One of the things I actually enjoy about listening to him in Spanish is my Spanish is definitely conversational at a relatively high level. I can understand everything he's saying there.

And if I click on that, it takes me to Yeah, just a note that he's got Satoshi stream so he's got Satoshi stream set up so he's set up for booster grams and I here's a little a fun one. I am actually a little bit of a Don Juan in the podcasting 2.0 Because I have I have broken a fair few people's booster grabbing virginity and so I broke his a fair while ago. And yeah, he did the I suppose the kind of standard thing he you know, read it out on the show, and he actually had a really cool viewpoint, which was a kind of questioning, okay, why why was the first you know, I've been doing this for ages. He's, you know, for 1010 plus years.
He talked about podcasting 2.0 on his shows, well, before I was aware of any of his shows and whatnot. You know, why was a gringo from Australia, the first person to booster gram in and even though he, you know, he has quite a few shows and has lots of people listening and things like that. And at a really cool discussion, I guess with himself about wealth and generosity. And you know, is Australia a wealthy country? Because because we're generous, or was I generous because I'm wealthy and you know, sent him through and it was it was a meager amount of sets. It wasn't it wasn't I wasn't breaking the bank for myself either. I think it was, you know, a couple of dollars worth or something. But But yeah, he he does do value for value in the sense that I've traditionally shown him here on the booster grams and things like that. But he mixes it with the, I suppose the kind of business His type strategy and so this is where I'll get on to the something unique section.
And this is definitely the mix of traditional and value for value. So he has, I don't believe he has a paywall anywhere, but it's definitely you know, if you want early access to one of his shows, if you want to be a premium, or I believe the word is freemium nowadays, which was kind of, you know, extra benefits, but you can still get the main stuff for free. He does that. So for example, on SLS podcast, 2.0, and 10, v2, and cafe, he's got a $3 a month, sort of subscription, and you can discount get discounts and other stuff for free for those who are already supporting him and things like that. But he also does the value for value and, and says, look, I've got, you know, a bitcoin address here, I've got my shows set up on fountain and whatnot. He's very active on the hive blockchain and does videos there and shows, you know, this is how you can do this thing. This is how you can, you know, gain, I suppose, you know, Hive money or SATs, if you've got the hive set hive converter set up for for doing these sorts of things, and this is how you can get onto Hi, this is how you can get on to podcasting. 2.0 So, it's definitely introducing I suppose the value for value model in a not 100% deep way, you know, I'd say more of a probably 5050 split to a completely unknown audience. I you know, people who speak only Spanish, because that is, you know, there's not a mastodon version of podcasting 2.0 in Spanish, you know, the main shows, every single show I've covered here has been a an English show, obviously, because I speak English as my primary language. So that's kind of more drawn to me. But it is definitely starting from an definitely an American, and then going even further out that it's expanding into an English context. So I think it's really cool that he's doing this kind of mix between the two and an introducing value for value in a completely different way. This isn't just him as well, there are other, I would say, probably full time podcasters I was gonna use the word professional, but I think a lot of the people I've covered on here have been very professional podcasters but not many have been full time. podcasters and so other people who do this, for example, the Darknet diaries, Jack rightside podcast junkies, harried around survival podcast or Jacksboro speaker, I'm not sure how you pronounce his name, most of them tend to have a kind of mix of value for value thrown in and this is kind of one of the unique things you don't have to be 100% value for value, it's, it can be an add on, you know, I me personally, I've gone 100% The value for value way because I'm, I suppose a bit more if you want to put it in a negative way fanatical in a nicer way you might be so you might say I idealistic but in any case, it doesn't need to, if you're wondering, you know, I don't see how I can support myself you know, Karen's only getting maybe three or five booster grams a week coming in through the value for value show that you know, that's not enough to be able to, you know, have a lifestyle with the and pay for the bills if you've got you know, a wife and two kids for example, like Robert does, but you can add on us like an extra little benefit it can be a kind of secondary side stream it won't perhaps work as well you might have find yourself hitting a limit because people will be like No, he's not really reading out the booster grams on the show and during the the kind of creating that feedback loop he's not fully implementing I suppose some of the ethos with regards to setting a price on his own product you know, he's he's set a price of $3 monthly for many of his shows, and many people will only pay that much and might not even do more when he could be getting more. So yeah, it's it's, I suppose a personal thing that you have to decide on if you're at least interested in this route. Do I want to go all the way there's other kinds of concerns related to to advertising and how that can be, you know, kind of sensorial in nature. You don't want to piss off your advertisers by saying something wrong or, you know, dare you even say something bad about the advertiser themselves, you know, the that sort of money flow can can make things a little bit more different difficult, but you know, that doesn't mean that you have to swear off those things entirely.
Another one, which I wanted to say was a technique that he did some time back which I I thought it was really interesting, and I haven't really seen anyone do this previously. So for Episode 14 101, and Congrats on getting that far thing, you're on March 7 2022. So March of this year, he had ti UC so 10 Petone Cafe is Yara e esta vez and seddio. And then I kind of shocked face. So that means 10 Vito, and on Cafe is closing, and this time, I'm serious or like it's serious. And basically in that episode, he was saying, I'm going to close the this stop this podcast, I've gotten up to 1400 episodes, you know, I'm tired. I'm I'm struggling to find this kind of being justifying the amount of effort I'm putting in and you know, daily podcast for kind of 10 years, can can drain someone a bit, I imagine. And the basically he was saying, Look, unless I reached a kind of donation amount of people sending in a value to me, and this time, particularly in the monetary form, I'm going to have to close the podcast. And what actually happened was he had another bonus episode, I think about two weeks after that. Yeah. So March 21. And it says, bonus and food todo de ti you see, ya start definitely though ese es como cetera. So it's now defined, and I know what it will be, or how it will be. And so this was basically him saying, I, you know, I got an outpouring of support. And you can include me in this way. Because even though I don't particularly listen to this podcast at all, I, for one, I don't really like the small shows, you know, four minutes, five minutes in length, I prefer longer ones. And it's also on a topic personal development, which, yeah, I've kind of gone through that in the past. And it's not as interesting to me as it once was. Yet, he had yet I still donate it to that show. So I was like, Oh, I don't want you to close your podcast. I'm obviously here and interested, I'll throw some SATs your way.
And, and this actually really worked for him. And I can't remember exactly what happened. But I believe he reached his his target, which was, I think, a couple of $100 us worth of, of monetary support. And so said, Okay, maybe you're not insane to like the podcast is going to close for serious, but I thought that was a cool technique to really, you know, we've we've seen kind of the sad puppy before, if you've had a, you know, a bad week or two of having the monetary support come in, but taken at the next level, to the kind of ultimatum of look, the podcast is going to close unless you helped me out.
It worked. It's maybe you know, mid probably only works if you're, if you're super serious about it, as well. So if you do this, you know, kind of five weeks, five times a year, maybe it neared might not work as well. But I think that was a kind of, you know, an interesting idea. And look, this, these kinds of things are hard, doing 1400 episodes, no matter the length of it is draining that I you know, I've done maybe a 500 across all of my shows. And that is a supreme effort. And so I can see how, if you're doing something, and it's not, you're not getting the value back for it, you know, one is probably best to look inside first and go, Okay, you know, is the value that I'm creating actually valuable? Or am I just in my head thinking it's, it's, it's super cool and fun. And yet, it's only going to appeal to an audience of, you know, three people in the world? Well, okay, then then that way, you know, unless those three people are billionaires, you're probably going to have some some problems, and generous billionaires like that. So, I think there is, you know, some techniques and tricks like that, which, you know, we haven't seen, particularly in other shows, which where it's like, Look, you if you're, if you're struggling if you really need to make a decision. And if you especially if you're following the value for value model, and you you want to make that you perhaps your primary way of of people supporting back look, this, this, I need to see it, I need to see that from from the audience from you people listening. So with that being said, you know, unless I get millions that I'm collecting the value for value. Now, that's not true. So, I think there's a lot of cool things that he's doing especially just in the kind of Latino world and and I suppose promoting value for value to a whole new section of audience of people which that They're very unlikely to find it. Let's do the current memes means that that are available ie the English language because it's just there's just not that much there. So a lot of portable load value for value is making its way internationally I think that's really really cool. So there's plenty of other things I would just say if you're interested at all you can go to Suzuki dot network that's his website and that's probably one of his website is got quite a few of them and you can go there and and check out his shows is it's got a lot of other details contacts you can send him things via that website as well. If you go to the contact info section and yeah, I know he does appreciate I know he reads these things and receives booster grams and the emails and and appreciates is the support he gets from other people as well.
So his actual electronic email is all at Robert sosuke.com If you're interested so yeah, just want to do a big shout out for him. And with all that being said, I'm going to go now on to my own booster Graham lounge. Welcome to the value for value gram Okay, so it's not a huge week for the booster grams this week. But I do have three coming in which I'm very very appreciative of. So we've got eight sets from this as the future and he just says it's rare exclamation marks that's related to the rare encounter episode from last week. The next one is from Abel Kirby, none other than Abel can be himself through curio caster, which is cool. And he said 6599 sites and he says narrative question mark a really common question mark. I heard them talking about this on this show. And look my so two things One was they were slightly annoyed that I equated anime with Naruto. And you know this is because on their show they actually listened to I'm gonna say more refined tastes so more probably, you know less.
Mainstream is the nice way of putting it kind of like pop culture trash might be the the other but the thing is for me, Naruto is equated with anime in my head because even though I used to watch Dragonball Z and you know more like the kids types ones were dijamin and things like that, you know, Pokemon. They always were cartoons in my mind and Naruto was I think the first one which I watched, which was subbed instead of dubbed so this was where you just see the subtitles and yet you hear the original kind of Japanese voices. And that was the first anime that I personally you know, watched and I would have said oh, this is an anime and yeah, it's just acquainted in my mind and honestly I think most other people you know if I'd listed out some of the shows that they listened to people would go what? Because they are more obscure more definitely harder to find and more more further refined tastes I would say so. As fuck it you know what I'm not gonna apologize Naruto is anime it's just as valid. Another one we've got here from the ever present PTR and he says so this was 3750 SATs Thank you my friend through fountain he says crapper is not an adjective and then he has a poop emoji.
Obviously I must have said that and the cool thing with a fountain as you can see when the booths came in so that was around the 17 Minute 43 Mark so I probably said crapper at some point but you know I'm not going to apologize for my language either fuck up you know once again much appreciated for for everyone and like I said we'll go into my own value for value. This is value for value podcast I put this out with the hope that those who are listening can can gain some tips and techniques and tools that they can perhaps take for their own podcasts perhaps you're using this for as a mechanism to find new podcasts and things like that I you know there's very many different ways you could be getting value from this maybe even you just like to hear me laugh you know that's that's also cool. And I do request value back in return for that now how you want to do that can be in many ways you could share the the show to a friend who's listening and go oh, you know what they I think they might enjoy this. You could create a clip on fountain I know many people do that. And that is also a beautiful way of shot highlighting a particular part of the show that you liked. You can send in a suggestion of another value for value show that I I would maybe enjoy listening to and you think that they're doing something cool.
That is very much appreciated. And then of course, I always appreciate Brewster grams and SATs coming in. So set the streaming SATs high on whichever podcast app that you're listening to. And I'm hoping it's a podcasting 2.0 app, because I also put chapters in and things like that. And, you know, sent me through a booster gram, you decide the value on what you got from this show. So if it's high, if it's low, that's up to you. And I am very much appreciative of all the support that comes in. So with that all being said, I would just yet once again, recommend checking out Roberts, a suitcase, podcast if you are bilingual of any sort and want to practice your Spanish as well. He's got a beautiful voice, nice and clear enunciation. So it's very understandable and he speaks in relatively slow as well. So he's, it's a very nice podcast to listen to any of them if you're interested in those topics and want to practice your Spanish and also, you know, support someone who's doing cool stuff out support someone who's spreading value for value into the Latino world. I think that's really cool. So, with all that being said, Ciao for now. Kyrin out
