Martin:

Ego Netcast.

Martin:

This session is being recorded thanks to

Martin:

Boomcaster.

Martin:

Welcome to Ego Netcast live streaming session.

Martin:

This live streaming session will be an edited version later on for episode 133 of Ego

Martin:

Netcost podcast.

Martin:

And this is a test that I'm doing, creating

Martin:

content on a regular basis.

Martin:

So it will be live streaming here on hopefully

Martin:

on Facebook.

Martin:

And I will check that soon and here on

Martin:

LinkedIn and YouTube.

Martin:

And maybe in the future, boom Costa could add

Martin:

more destinations.

Martin:

And now I will take a sip of tea here.

Martin:

It will be pretty short and sweet around ten minutes.

Martin:

And I've done another test here on Tuesday american time and Wednesday, my morning.

Martin:

So it's 748 now and things happen.

Martin:

So I didn't start as I wanted to do around

:

00 p.m. and that's 07:00 a.m. i haven't wake up, woken up yet.

:

00 a.m. on Friday.

:

But that's 10:00 p.m. pacific time or

:

California time, West coast time in America.

:

So it's 9 hours difference.

:

So that's why I'm.

:

It's still Thursday and it's Thursta.

:

It's Thor's day for Thor in Swedish.

:

So Tushta is a norse God, Thor and with hammer

:

and ventilating a bit.

:

But it's as you know, one Friday morning, so

:

it's to keep this time here.

:

So Adam Tinkov in California, he wrote a

:

comment on my Facebook page and said, is it Pacific time or is it pumpkin time?

:

And because we have past 07:00 p.m. 07:00 a.m.

:

00 p.m. pacific time, it's as it is.

:

There's a test and see if I could get this routine going and doing this ventilating.

:

And when I'm thinking of it, I'm thinking loud here.

:

In the future I will do now showing here on the camera, I will use this notecard model

:

1927 mod 1927, put some points and keep to that.

:

I want to do it around ten minutes.

:

So now I've lost the thread already.

:

But anyhow, so it is to having this that I posted on LinkedIn, a post about so called,

:

and I quote their productivity system in order to create content without being hyper

:

stressed.

:

So I have created acronyms for that.

:

So B and PIL standing for blog, newsletter and podcast.

:

But this livestream will end up as a podcast episode.

:

And then on the different days I have a lift.

:

You could say framework or satellite with

:

words.

:

I will explain that in separate live streaming

:

and podcast episodes.

:

And that's a good thing that you could do

:

chunks and bite size content.

:

But anyway, we left this standing for LinkedIn

:

and Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

:

That's now called x. And I want to also start

:

to use new services also that I'm an advisor for.

:

Veo value each other.

:

And then also, then of course podcasting 2.0.

:

And that's coming to this live streaming also one of the main advantages with podcasting is

:

that you could listen whenever you want.

:

But this live streaming now and the topic

:

will, I will soon come to that about the teapot and the storm and tempest in teacup and

:

whatnot.

:

In Swedish they called Storm in a water glass.

:

So different in different languages.

:

Another sip of tea here.

:

My arm was a bit late also it was time, early morning, I think.

:

Spotlight, I'll see what that is.

:

Now.

:

Spotlight yourself for everyone.

:

Okay, what did I do?

:

Oh, back to, okay, I'm playing around with the boomcaster things here.

:

So.

:

Yep.

:

So it'll be fun to edit with now.

:

So talk about that.

:

Yes, so the settings, I have recently cleared my cache on my crown browser here and that

:

will be one thing that I probably ventilate about in the future, talking about the browser

:

wars like a flashback or coming back again.

:

So something about Googleware and how their so

:

called, they call it monopoly situation, but it is not a monopoly because there are

:

alternatives out there.

:

But they have a very strong position and that

:

have happened during the years with the Internet explorer back in the day and other

:

things.

:

So these antitrust laws and I will talk about

:

that also more in the future.

:

So anyway, the settings, I clear the cache.

:

So it took some time to do that and also I've had issues and then I will now check it out

:

here.

:

So it would be a fun episode if it's live on

:

Facebook because I have never, I never.

:

Yes.

:

So it seems to be now I'm showing on the camera seems to be working.

:

Yay.

:

Yes.

:

So it seems great.

:

So now I'm setting here.

:

So yeah, I played around a little bit with that, so to the topic and I could see her live

:

on air.

:

It's on YouTube, it says Facebook and

:

LinkedIn.

:

And I should be able to and see if somebody is

:

commenting or so on.

:

And that will be the hard thing with

:

multitasking, if this will become popular and lots of audience.

:

Mainly I am doing this, getting material for recording that I can edit and then use an

:

audio and that I wanted to talk about.

:

What's the now do I add some value to be live

:

on screen and you could see me, part of me, because I have microphone in front of my face,

:

my cap here.

:

Igonetkoff, I showed the toy hammer with in

:

Swedish, the Marvel thing here.

:

Have you watched that movie?

:

I haven't watched that Marvel movie tour.

:

Torch hammer ventilating.

:

Oops.

:

Banged on the microphone.

:

So this is testing and playing it out and playing with it and see what's going on.

:

And that was, I was coming to the podcasting here, and then we'll do the title a little

:

bit, but I will do a follow up and do that and find the format of this.

:

I was thinking about ten minutes, like 10:00 p.m. thursday american time.

:

Ten minutes.

:

And I have another one.

:

What I'm doing on Tuesday tech, american time.

:

And then it's Wednesday morning, swedish time,

:

Tuesday tech in ten minutes with tea.

:

I'm playing with words here and wanted to try

:

to, you could remember it again, it's with my schedule and planning and routine, morning

:

routine and so on.

:

If I will get this going, and I will be open

:

with that in my latest podcast here, calling pluck.

:

And I was showing on camera, gently pluck something.

:

Pluck the day.

:

And it's coming from the latin carpe diem.

:

In Swedish, it's like grab the day or catch the day or cease the day.

:

But the original thing is pluck young plucking like berry or two leaves and a bud, for

:

example.

:

So regarding podcasting, the one main benefit

:

is that you can listen whenever you want as a listener.

:

And live streaming is live streaming.

:

So it's not really a podcast episode, but now

:

it's starting getting these hybrids.

:

So with podcasting 2.0 initiative, with the

:

different tags that you're adding, or what's the technical term for it, that could somebody

:

expert tell me? But for the RSS, really simple syndication,

:

the machinery that's going, that you get a notification that a new episode has been

:

published, all kind of things.

:

So it's the technique or behind the scenes

:

that as a listener, you don't really care.

:

But as a podcaster and others, you should care

:

about protecting this RSS and then to extend it and expand it and develop it over time,

:

because then you could add these nice features like the live item tag lit.

:

So when you're going live and you're using a new modern podcast app, you could see, okay,

:

you're going live.

:

And then you could being in that moment, then

:

you could almost, as a listener, become a co producer.

:

If you then send a message or a telegram called a boostergram with some satoshis.

:

And a satoshi is a small part or a bit of bitcoin.

:

So if you take one bitcoin and divide it hundred million times, then you will get one

:

satoshi.

:

So that could be things.

:

I'm very realistic there will I get lots of live viewers and listeners commenting on my

:

stream? I'm not sure about that, but it could be fun

:

to play.

:

So in my latest podcast, plug the day, I have

:

used a host called Podhome FM.

:

My main host provider is captivate, where I

:

have the most of my podcast.

:

So now this is an additional cost, so you are

:

welcome to support me that way.

:

And I will talk about another thing that I

:

have now added for this satoshis.

:

And that's an Albi hub.

:

So it's almost like we talked about that in the latest episode of the secular foxhole, but

:

it's almost like a bank, you could say, with the channels, with receiving and sending

:

satoshis.

:

More of that later on.

:

I'm back to the so called Freddy.

:

So it's now starting to be a fusion of what's

:

live and what's recorded and what's as an audio episode.

:

So it's neat to test this out to see where it could go.

:

And when I was doing the settings, it took some time to do that and playing around.

:

So it's all good.

:

And now I've been babbling for, I think,

:

almost for 15 minutes, and I wanted to have it for ten minutes.

:

So bear with me.

:

And it's fun.

:

It's working on Facebook, and I will see here as an end if it's working on.

:

If I'm live on saying trick for push when Facebook is saying like this, I don't know

:

what's up.

:

Yeah, now.

:

Yeah, it's working here, Facebook again, I think I need some help with that.

:

People checking up on me.

:

And now it's very easy.

:

I see myself here on LinkedIn.

:

It's easy to lose your thread that I'm older

:

and doing, coming back to this.

:

So again, it's a test.

:

See where it's going.

:

So the topic I will continue.

:

Do you storm in a teacup or tempest in a teapot?

:

I want to do my own version of it and call it storm in a teapot because a teapot is bigger

:

and then you could swirl with a teaspoon.

:

Tempest is a word that I haven't.

:

I was thinking of you, Tempest in Europe, the rock band.

:

But Tempest is not as a storm, but I have to figure out that meaning of that word and

:

origin, where it's coming from.

:

So I got curious about that expression.

:

I thought it was like not a positive thing, but as a tea enthusiasts, I like it, but it's

:

really, is it a big deal or is it a storm in a teacup?

:

Or in Swedish, as I said, it's like storm in a water glass.

:

Is it a big deal? Is it really something to talk about?

:

And then you could say, why van have ventilate about stuff and talk about it if it's not

:

worth talk about.

:

But that's one big thing coming up here when

:

I'm talking, it's freedom of expression.

:

We take this for granted, but in certain

:

areas, certain places in the world, in countries, you are not allowed to say

:

something.

:

And that I will do here ventilating things.

:

And as long as we have freedom of speech, freedom of expression, we have a right to do

:

it and we have to defend that.

:

That was one of latest posts on Facebook.

:

I said free Venicela.

:

It was a band called Fenwicks.

:

Fenwicks that I've done created a song about that.

:

And this is something that get me going and standing up for that.

:

Freedom of expression, free speech, liberty and podcasting is good for that when you have

:

your rss and keep that in a safe way.

:

So I saw an illustration on Wikipedia about

:

that and it was a name there, Gutenberg, called Gutenberg.

:

So I wonder if he's related or relative to the printing press, the Bible, the guy who printed

:

Bibles.

:

And now you could have your own blog and

:

that's also like a printing.

:

And now I get something here.

:

Excuse me.

:

That's the thing going live.

:

So I will look into this expression more because I like it and it's a bit playoff play

:

with words.

:

And you will relate to tea, my favorite

:

beverage.

:

And yeah, so it was something, one reference,

:

historical restaurant or something uproar or something happened on Isle of Man.

:

And this illustration, it seems to be around founding of America.

:

But I have to look more into this because it was something then again with the british and

:

then in America, I think it was 77 88, they have done the illustrations.

:

You have to look into that.

:

If you know anything more about this

:

expression or how you use that.

:

Do you storm in a teacup or tempest in a

:

teapot or a mix or hybrid or version of that? Or as do here in Sweden, storm in a water

:

glass.

:

And do you get the meaning?

:

Or when you talk to somebody, do they get it? And have you heard that recently in media, in

:

mainstream media, new media.

:

Is it lots of storm in the teacup or tempest

:

in a teapot uproar or things for nothing? All these things were coming to us in the

:

stream, so to speak, the live stream, news stream, everything.

:

And now I'm adding and talking about that.

:

I got notification on threads, so we're all

:

getting all these notifications and I will come back to that.

:

Mainly my new podcast, pluck the day about that to have this balance.

:

I recently got a new book on ikigai, an audiobook that I will listen to and get

:

everything in place.

:

So this is short and sweet.

:

Live episode for episode 133.

:

I will do during this weekend a new episode of

:

Plaque today and talk about that and the ongoing thing.

:

I have too many podcasts, as I say, as a new media advice, I would advise you to have one.

:

Start out with one.

:

I have many.

:

I'm waiting for some co host joining in some of the podcasts, some I will so called pause

:

forever, maybe not shelf and because it has its own story, life and whatnot.

:

And some you could pivot, you could change, you could develop the main one in English, I

:

think, except for my own, besides my own one, Teapot Media is the secular foxhole with my co

:

host Blair, which we have done for a long time now, and I really enjoy it.

:

And where I see this freedom of expression, free speech, standing up for liberal classical

:

liberalism, free market, and also the separation of church and state, and same thing

:

with state and economy and also here in media, that the state shouldn't be involved, it

:

should be private interest.

:

When we could talk if something like back in

:

the day it was voice of America, Radio free Europe and other things like that.

:

And that was in a way controlled by, I think the american state and government as a

:

propaganda, as a positive propaganda for reaching out to people behind the iron curtain

:

and so on in different countries.

:

I look into that, how much they are now doing

:

in, for example in Venezuela.

:

So with that I will, I think end soon.

:

But I will show you here on live what I often do in the morning.

:

So I have a cup of tea here, have english breakfast, for example.

:

And you hear now as a listener, you hear a spoon.

:

And I will show for the camera here on the backdrop.

:

I have only you can save podcasting sticker for podcast index.org.

:

and I will show, for example, what I'm wearing.

:

It's a Betsy Ross tennis shirt.

:

So now I'm showing here hemp oil from 3500

:

milligrams, broad spectrum premium quality hemp oil without THC from a brand called and

:

that's talking about life, coco vida with good life.

:

So I squeeze a rubber and open it.

:

I have this glass thing with drops.

:

You should take it under the tongue in a way.

:

Keep it there for 30 seconds.

:

I put it here on the show here in a teaspoon.

:

123-34-5678 910, 1112 13, 1516, 1718.

:

Around 20 drops.

:

I think it was a pause for some time.

:

You could have it now.

:

I swallowed quicker, but often, like 30

:

seconds will be good.

:

So you could count to 30 and then ending here

:

with storm in the tea cup.

:

I put some drops in the tea.

:

Cheers.

:

This version has a flavored with natural

:

orange, Florida orange.

:

So it tastes very, very good also.

:

And it also has addition of monk fruit and other good stuff.

:

So again, thanks for watching.

:

If you're watching live on Facebook on

:

LinkedIn and YouTube, and then thanks for listening to the forthcoming upcoming edited

:

version of episode 133 of Ego Netcast.

:

And I look forward to talk to you soon.

:

Again, cheers for now and bye for now.
