Ok so we annihilated through 300k so quickly that I couldn't even record anything and now we're at 350k. I've got no idea what to think about the last month of plays and scrutiny and attention but we might as well celebrate!
Another Q&A seems the best option as people always seem to love them and they perform great but I'm open to other ideas too. Feel free to throw them below ⬇️
Also got the 500th episode looming too which needs something cool doing for it. Maybe another favourite lessons runthrough?
I was just listening to a llivestream with Jay Postones, the drummer of Tesseract. He said he listens to Tim Ferris podcast and Modern Wisdom a lot. That's pretty cool

On the other hand: At a 0.2% conversion rate from YT subscribers to Locals paid subscription, you could finance the rental and outfitting of your very own cinematic studio.
