How do we manage all the busy work involved in content creation? Let's discuss! So much of our time, easily over half, is spent doing the un-sexy busywork stuff. How do we support ourselves so we can push through these less exciting parts? Let's discuss!

Let's talk about politics in content creation! It's a tricky subject and often one that creators wholesale avoid entirely. Discussing politics is commonly a ban-able offence in streams and communities, but staying silent can sometimes be suffocating, how do we navigate this? Let's discuss!

This week Shakka & Ben discuss the reality that no matter how much we learn, we're always still kinda just winging it! Content creation is often like blazing a trail through a thick forest, just figuring it out as you go. There's nothing wrong with not knowing how to do a thing, that's no reason to stop, just wing it!

As we grow and evolve, sometimes we loose folks along the way, sometimes we're accused of "changing", often we have, how do we navigate these complexities that are inevitable as we grow as creators? Let's discuss!

This time we discuss one of the biggest pillars of success for any creative, having GRIT! Often, the what makes the difference between success and failure is how hard you hold on, your will to continue and not give up! GRIT! Let's discuss.

This week we discuss best practices for healthy and appropriate relationships with different people in your work. The wise way to deal with conflict or friction while live on stream with your viewers is VERY different than what's healthy with close relationships, but sometimes we get these mixed up and burn bridges that should have been mended. Let's discuss!

This week's ep is a bonus episode, recorded and rush released, to discuss why I left Mixer for Twitch. It's been a long time coming and there's a lot to talk about. Let's discuss.
