It's not that I hate it exactly, it's just that I can't stand listening to it anymore. My usual bit of swirling around on what this podcast is, isn't, and how I want to use it.

Welcome back to Conversations With My Nightbrain. I'm Chris, your host, and I just have a confession. It's been since May, so, uh, whatever that is, almost four months since I last recorded an episode. Anyways, we're just gonna shuffle on past that. I've realized lately over the last month or so, I want to record something and my brain stops me because I hate the music, the intro music. So I'm not including it right now. I'm not recording with my gear. I'm just recording right into my phone.

Doing it simple, quick and easy, just to publish something to get over that little hump that my brain keeps telling me, Hey, you haven't recorded in a long time and you don't have your gear set up right now. And remember how you hate the music right now that you made, even though you loved it and thought it was amazing when you made it.

So. All that being said, that's what's been keeping me, or at least that's my excuse that's been keeping me from investing time and energy into this podcast is that, oh, I hate the music. I also kind of don't know what to do with it. I'd like to do it as a thing where I can interview and have conversations with other people about things that are keeping them up at night and just kind of like, a little fun, light hearted therapy like I've talked about, group therapy session.

Um, but maybe it's just a solo thing that I sometimes talk with other people about. But then I get nervous about doing a solo show where I end up never feeling like I can actually talk about something because who knows who's going to judge me for what I say, who's going to get angry for my thoughts, and if my thoughts are worth even being angry or mad about.

That whole cycle kind of just spins me around and around and I think, shut up, just do the work you have in front of you and then get off the computer. Don't worry about podcasting. So that's where my brain's at September 20th, 2023 With Twitter imploding and everything kind of flying all over the place in terms of where people are keeping up with community and online connections and feeling like everything's kind of scattering to the wind.

I kind of want to have a place that I can direct people to that's like, Hey, that's me. I have my blog chrisenns.com, but somehow I feel like I should have a podcast.

And I just can't decide if Conversations With My Nightbrain should be that vehicle where I just use that as a way to put my thoughts out into the world, or if it should be something entirely different and overthink myself into a black hole and end up just scanning Netflix or Apple TV plus for something to watch instead, because that's easier. All right, there. Now I can say I've published a new episode recently and move forward. So, shut up, brain. I beat you this time. Thanks for listening.

Have a great day. Bye.
