Hello, hello. This week we are taking a break from the guest format. Enjoy a quick solo episode from yours truly. The first 06:00 minutes are discussing the progression of the channel. After 06:00 minutes enjoy a monster rant as I talk about all my observations of the self-promotion that runs rampant on social media by content creators.

We will be back next week with another guest! Take care.
