Episode notes
Podcast Popularity Surprise
- Dear Hank and John is much larger than the hosts realized and outperforms their Vlogbrothers YouTube channel.
- This surprised them and changed how they plan to treat the podcast moving forward.
Use Catchy Mottos Carefully
- Use memorable short mottos to crystallize work approaches like 'Don't work harder. Work smarter.'
- Treat such phrases as rallying slogans but avoid empty overconfidence.
Language Clarifies Direction
- Language can specify directionality and clarity, like German 'descalator' for downward escalators.
- Naming things by function can make everyday objects more precise and amusing.
