INSIGHT

Podcast Shift To Shorter, Authentic Episodes

  • Hank and John are intentionally shortening and simplifying the podcast to reflect life changes after Hank's cancer remission.
  • They prioritize authentic brotherly conversation over polished segments and production.
ADVICE

Make The Podcast Fun, Not A Job

  • Do treat the podcast as a place to have fun, not as onerous work tied to metrics or expectations.
  • Avoid overthinking edits and marketing; lean on listeners to share if they like it.
ADVICE

Focus Patreon On Live Streams

  • Do keep monthly live Patreon streams and cut the weekly Patreon extras that feel like shouting into the void.
  • Focus paid-community efforts on interaction that feels valuable and rewarding.
