If you are just following this blog (first, heeyyy shout out to you!!) you may not know that we had a blog podcast going on a couple years ago …
…but I noticed something devastating just now.
Okay, not that devastating. Obviously, it’s not that serious, haha
No, but okay. It kinda is.
Some of our episodes are missing!
In fact, I can’t find the FIRST episode (which was kinda the best one.)
What in all the world.
Soundcloud. That’s what.
I started this blog podcast as kind of extension of No Whining Wednesday, where I encourage you to not whine, criticize, or complain for a 24-hour period. (learn about that here)
The podcast was a series of inspirational episodes with each message no longer than 5-15minutes so you can listen and digest the message while driving home from work or doing daily tasks. Designed to be an audio version of the blog, I hoped to spill some hope into your life, one podcast at a time.
But I stopped…
I put a halt on the podcast because I didn’t see a big enough demand to justify paying for more space.
Sound cloud’s basic plan only allows for so much space. I was also paying to have the episodes distributed to iTunes and other platforms.
But I am now noticing that some of the earlier episodes are missing.
So blog, what should we do about this?
Should I relaunch the podcast and just promote it more?
You decide.
At the moment there are 18 episodes linked to the podcast page but you will find some links won’t work. SoundCloud has removed those episodes to make room for more space. If you think I should continue, let me know!
Keep in mind that I am already over my limit by 15mins so I physically cannot upload more eps unless I upgrade to the Pro Account. This means the demand for this to continue must justify me paying for more space. If not, things will remain as they are.

I found some of your podcasts and they are very good I would love you to continue, but it depends on what other people say to make it worth your while as regards to having to pay for extra space n stuff. I’m not on pateron but some writers are doing good from it. Could you do the podcasts that way as less outcome for yourself? I’m sorry, Yecheilyah, I’m blabbering. I just don’t know enough about the podcast market for writers. xxx

You’re not blabbering! Those are good ideas. I will definitely look more into it before making a move. Soundcloud’s prices went up since my last upload and I’m not interested in overpaying. I could try a subscription type service to help pay for it 🤔

I think you should keep it going. There are other platforms that allow for unlimited time. Anchor fm being one of them. Keep going!!!
