Speaker:
Like all creators, serious podcasters need to take care of themselves.
Speaker:
Sometimes that means taking time for yourself.
Speaker:
Sometimes it means adjusting priorities to make the creative process better.
Speaker:
I'm doing both!
Speaker:
Hello, and welcome to the announcement of my Long Winter's Nap away from Podcast
Speaker:
Pontifications with me, Evo Terra.
Speaker:
If you're brand new to the podcast, welcome!
Speaker:
This is a very special episode, letting you know what long-time listeners of
Speaker:
the show know already, and that is I'm on a scheduled mid-season break.
Speaker:
That means you're not going to hear a new episodes of Podcast Pontifications, after
Speaker:
this at least, until January 4th, 2022.
Speaker:
Now, I know that sounds like an incredibly long time, but I assure you it's not.
Speaker:
So pretty please with sugar on it, stick around.
Speaker:
New episodes will resume shortly.
Speaker:
In the meantime, the full back catalog of over 500 episodes is on display
Speaker:
for you at podcastpontifications.com.
Speaker:
If you click on the Episodes About tab at the top of that page, you'll see all
Speaker:
of them grouped together by category.
Speaker:
So maybe you want to think about podcast accessibility,
Speaker:
lots of episodes about that.
Speaker:
Or maybe you want to bone up on some thoughts around listener experience.
Speaker:
That's super important.
Speaker:
I've even got episodes up there that'll help you think about ways to
Speaker:
take care of yourself as a podcaster.
Speaker:
And speaking of self-care, once again, that's why I take this mid-season break
Speaker:
each and every year because putting out daily episodes is - it's a job.
Speaker:
It's hard.
Speaker:
It's fun!
Speaker:
But it's still a job and it's a hard job, and also, just one of the things
Speaker:
I have to do in my daily routine.
Speaker:
So I'm not really napping, by the way, just so you know.
Speaker:
I'm actively recording new content so that when January four rolls
Speaker:
around, I'll have a wealth of episodes ready to get to you right away.
Speaker:
So don't worry, again, if you do not hear from me for the next few weeks.
Speaker:
That's going to change soon enough.
Speaker:
And soon I'll be back to giving you plenty to think about as you
Speaker:
work on making podcasting better.
Speaker:
So once again, I shall be back on January 4th, 2022 with yet
Speaker:
another Podcast Pontifications.
Speaker:
Cheers!
