So, uh, you know, what was, what was that like, you know, from the inside, how, how did companies survive or feel?

Well, there's a couple of things that are out there, um, that, that are sort of like...

It's kind of annoying right now because if you go on LinkedIn or places like that, they always say, well, Kodak missed the digital revolution and they really screwed up and that's why they went bankrupt.

That's not at all what happened.

Yes, Kodak went bankrupt in 2012 and they're out of bankruptcy now and they're doing very well as a company.

But...

And it's hard for people to understand this now because in today's world, you know, we've got camera phones, we've got webcams, we've got phone, we've got cameras in our homes, we've got cameras on our cars, we've got standalone cameras, we've got all the action cameras.

So what exactly is the Dead Pixel Society? And, you know, why did you focus on such a specific community?

Which one are you using for Indescript?

But it's primarily, I just go through and I just say, you know, clean it up, right? And so it takes out the introduction or the pre-introduction, the chatter and all that.

And then I go in and I say, you know, I clean out the, I use the filter to clean out the ums and ohs and ahs and shorten the space between sentences and things like that.

So it's just basic cleanup.

I do use sometimes the summary of the description and the recap and all that.

But the challenge I have with that is, my host for my podcast buzzsprout does all that stuff too so it doesn't do the editing but i think if they're smart they would probably try and start adding those features but they've been having ai features built into buzzsprout forever where again you pay a little extra for it but it's They give you the transcript and they also give you the suggested titles and they can even do a blog post, but I really don't like those because they're very, I like to say a little over-enthusiastic.

They'll say things like, your life will be changed forever once you listen to this podcast on how SEO can improve your business.

If you were in charge of the Mac division at Apple, what would be your first priority, whether it's hardware or software?

What were the first hundred members like to find? And where do you feel momentum shift from pushing to pulling?

Well, I mean, you have to kind of keep your expectations reasonable.

Um, so when I decided to create the newsletter, basically what happened was, is, um, like I said, I had a Facebook page.

I was updating people on, on industry news and I was like, okay, um, uh, I had one of my potential sponsors saying, hey, listen, if you turn this into a newsletter, I'll sponsor it.

And that's really where the sponsorship model came from.

And I told him, I said, we're not going to have a big audience.

It'll probably be 500 people.

How does podcasting serve the community and the business? And what does the show do that the other content can't?
