We trace how a quiet lake ritual turned into a TikTok live with tens of thousands of drop-ins, then wrestle with what to do when the fish leave and the algorithm wants more. Along the way we argue about clothes, leftovers, phone privacy, and the cost of dinner.

• going from passive scrolling to consistent creation
• two podcasts, time costs, and burnout risk
• catfish feeding lives, spikes to 26k viewers, retention
• mixing hobbies with the podcast brand on one account

• are phones listening and how suggestions shape behavior
• fallback content plans when the lake season ends
• marriage micro-battles: clothes, ice, leftovers limits
• eating out vs groceries, apps, deals, and church dinners
