Should You Start a Second YouTube Channel?

Send a text message to the show!Starting one YouTube channel can be a big enough challenge,  so why on earth would anyone want to start a second one?

What happens when the noise finds its way into every corner of your online life? That's what happened to me after the launch of the RODECaster Pro 2.

Forced to Shift Gears

Send a text message to the show!In the word of Simpsons supervillain Hank Scorpio, "Can't argue with the little things, it's the little things that make up life." So many absolutely awesome things have happened recently that I can't even begin to name them all. But I've also realized that all of these things, both big and little, have been taking a toll on my physical and mental well-being. On top of that, I somehow managed to achieve injuries to both of my feet this year, which has forced me to change some of the ways I typically cope with stress. This is definitely more of a free-flowing discussion, but I really wanted to share it, and more importantly, I think there's something inherently relatable here that might be helpful to hear. We're all pretty good at recognizing negative stress, but it turns out positive stress can also have a negative impact on you. •Heres the video where I got my awesome bass: https://youtu.be/0CViAXBo-eI🎙This week’s mic:Rode Procaster (Sweetwater)•Send a voice, text, or video message to be included in a future episode!tom@enthusiasmproject.com or use the audio submission button at himynameistom.com!••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 🎯Support the Show https://patreon.com/tombuckhttps://buymeacoffee.com/tombuck•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••📲 Connect!•All My Podcasts: https://himynameistom.com/podcasts•YouTube: www.youtube.com/tombuck•Twitter & IG: @sodarntom S7E02 | Series Episode 117Affiliate links mean I earn a commission from qualifying purchases.

In The Yard With Peter Lindgren - Season 7 Premiere!

Send a text message to the show!It’s the first episode of Season 7 and there’s no better way to kick things off that with special guest Peter Lindgren! But instead of a remote interview from the comfort of our own studios on opposite sides of the planet, we’re hanging out in my own backyard right here in Southern California!This was an incredibly fun episode, and the full video version is available at https://Patreon.com/tombuckIt was also a really fun experiment in remote podcast recording. I wanted to keep things as simple as possible, so I ran two Rode PodMics directly into the audio handle of my Sony FX3 (using a signal booster for each mic) and I think that it worked really well!•Peter's Main Channel•Peter's Vlog Channel🎙This week’s mics:Rode PodMic (Sweetwater)•Send a voice, text, or video message to be included in a future episode!tom@enthusiasmproject.com or use the audio submission button at himynameistom.com!••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 🎯Support the Show https://patreon.com/tombuckhttps://buymeacoffee.com/tombuck•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••📲 Connect!•All My Podcasts: https://himynameistom.com/podcasts•YouTube: www.youtube.com/tombuck•Twitter & IG: @sodarntom S7E01 | Series Episode 116Affiliate links mean I earn a commission from qualifying purchases.

Season 6 Finale: Influencer Etiquette!

Send a text message to the show!It’s the Season 6 finale! For this episode, let’s turn the tables a bit and look at the world of influencer partnerships from a brand’s perspective. I’ve recorded many episodes talking about how to build a solid foundation for yourself as a creator to avoid being taken advantage of or selling yourself short, but these relationships are always a two way street. And it might not be a surprise, but a lot of “strategies” for being an influencer with good etiquette are really just good manners and common decency that can apply to all kinds of situations in life. To celebrate Season 6, both of my podcasting courses are 15% off throughout the entire month of May 2022 if you use promo code HOORAYVisit himynameistom.com/courses for more info!🎙This week’s mic:Rode PodMic (Sweetwater)•Send a voice, text, or video message to be included in a future episode!tom@enthusiasmproject.com or use the audio submission button at himynameistom.com!••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 🎯Support the Show https://patreon.com/tombuckhttps://buymeacoffee.com/tombuck•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••📲 Connect!•All My Podcasts: https://himynameistom.com/podcasts•YouTube: www.youtube.com/tombuck•Twitter & IG: @sodarntom S6E10 | Series Episode 115Affiliate links mean I earn a commission from qualifying purchases.
