    Rideshare as Ministry

    I’ve been a rideshare driver for five years and I’ve come to see it as a ministry.

    When I say that I see it as a ministry I’m not talking about how some people misconstrue Colossians 3:23-24 as a passage about “working for the Lord.”

    I mean it in the sense of how Adam in Genesis was placed in The Garden of Eden for the purpose of working and glorifying God through that work.

  • Noise Reduction

    I decided to stop creating content for a few YouTube channels I’d been maintaining. Listen to hear how much it reduced the noise in my head.

  • 1600 Podcast Episodes

    I’ve been podcasting in one form or another since 2005. When I started podcasting I would sit in my car with either my laptop or a PDA and record my podcast. I had no idea what I was doing or how this new medium would change my life.

    Since 2005 I’ve published at least 1,599 episodes. This is the 1600th episode I’ve published (I think). This is a good-faith estimate. There may be more but I’m terrible at keeping track of this kind of stuff.

    Here’s a (rough) breakdown of the number of podcast episodes I released each year. Numbers in parentheses are YTD totals.

    2005: 2
    2006: 50 (52)
    2007: 90 (142)
    2008: 108 (250)
    2009: 50 (300)
    2010: 454 (756)
    2011: 56 (810)
    2012: 40 (850)
    2013: 67 (917)
    2014: 49 (966)
    2015: 66 (1032)
    2016: 50 (1082)
    2017: 63 (1145)
    2018: 104 (1248)
    2019: 27 (1275)
    2020: 168 (1443)
    2021: 75 (1518)
    2022: 50 (1568)
    2023: 21 (1589)
    2024: 10 (1599)

    This breaks down to approximately 84 episodes per year. It doesn’t include podcasts where I was a guest or on a panel. No, the number in 2010 is not a typo. I recorded or produced 365 episodes for a daily podcast that year on top of my regular podcasts.

    Let’s dig into the numbers!

    My Podcasting Hero

    I’ve been podcasting for a long time. There’s on podcaster who I consider to my my personal podcast hero: James Kennison. He has persevered through enormous setbacks and managed to create and maintain a successful podcast. You can find his podcasts at nlcast.com.

    Note: The prompt used to generate the AI image for this post was “superhero podcasting”.

    Low-Effort Content Creation

    I’m creatively burned out and stretched too thin. I’m also frustrated by people making low-effort content. Note: I’m aware of the poor audio quality in this podcast. I’ll do better next time.
