- 0:02Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Hey everyone, it's Justin here in Voices for Voices.
- 0:06Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Thank you so much for joining us on this episode of the show.
- 0:10Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We're grateful to have you with us.
- 0:13Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And we thank you for your love and support uh over the years and over the over 420 episodes of The Voices for Voices podcasts and TV show.
- 0:29Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Without you, we wouldn't have a show to do.
- 0:33Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We wouldn't have a reason to do a show.
- 0:36Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And we're it's it's ecstatic to be able to uh bring this to you.
- 0:45Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh just very, very humbled as well.
- 0:52Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh this show, this organization, it's bigger than one person.
- 1:00Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh it encompasses everybody across the world.
- 1:06Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Everybody sharing their voice in whatever way, whichever way that they're able to.
- 1:16Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And for those that aren't able to as uh easily uh for able to share their voice for them and do do do it justice, that that is very helpful as well.
- 1:38Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So uh this show, the voices for voices organization, the voices for voices, podcasts, the TV show, all this is for everybody across the world.
- 1:53Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So that should give you a little insight when you hear me talk about helping uh over three billion people uh in over 300 countries and over 3,000 cities across the world.
- 2:10Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh, because we all have a voice and we're using it, and we have an opportunity.
- 2:24Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: If we would like, you know, you can reach out if you are interested and wanting to share your voice or a voice of another uh with us and the world, and we would be humbled and grateful if that would be something you would like to do.
- 2:48Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh so just reach out to us, let us know, and we will uh we'll we'll we'll make it work.
- 2:59Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh secondly, you probably have noticed by this point uh with this uh this episode and when it drops that we're doing some new things.
- 3:17Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh one of one of the new things is uh we're posting clips.
- 3:26Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So instead of the whole entire episode to watch or listen, that is that's the hallmark, that's that's the foundation of the voices for voices, TV show and podcast.
- 3:47Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: But what we're finding is we don't want to leave anybody out, and after all these episodes, it's come come to our attention that we are we're leaving people out, and we don't want to, and so that is what we have started to do.
- 4:17Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So you're gonna see, or you either have or you will be seeing, uh, you know, the as far as those social media posts, you're gonna see for the entire show uh all the links, and you know, then you're going to see an additional post, additional social media posts with clips, so more bite-sized pieces of our show.
- 4:54Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We're not gonna eat the show.
- 5:01Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We're not eating, we're not eating the show.
- 5:02Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: That's not that's not happening.
- 5:05Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh but we're gonna we're gonna continue what we've started here as of late, and and have uh the ability uh for for you, maybe maybe you're you're one of uh the individuals that that that fits your schedule much easier.
- 5:32Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And we may not have been able to reach you uh until this point.
- 5:41Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So that's one thing that we're we're we're doing.
- 5:45Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh that's you know, that's brand new for 2026.
- 5:51Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh I don't I don't know.
- 5:54Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I don't think we're gonna go back in time uh to do to do the clips.
- 6:03Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um I don't think it makes sense.
- 6:06Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I think it makes sense what we're doing is when we when we met and had a uh had a meeting, uh that's that's when we started.
- 6:19Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so I think that's what we're gonna just continuously do uh for episodes going forward when we go back in time, uh, which sometimes happens, right?
- 6:36Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Sometimes we we get on a such a schedule that we may have to go back in in time to get those full episode posts out for particular platforms.
- 6:59Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I'm not saying that is happening, I'm saying it may happen.
- 7:04Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so when that happens, anything in the past from when we started, uh, we will do the full pose for the full episode.
- 7:21Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And you'll still have all the all of the uh all the platforms, all the links, as as you always had.
- 7:31Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um but as far as the the clips go, it helps us reach a brand brand new audience that we I don't want to say that we didn't I we didn't do it on purpose.
- 7:52Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh we it just with as you know the way life goes, things happen and sometimes like in a sometimes in a an easy to understand order, like one, two, three, four, five.
- 8:18Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And sometimes it goes one, two, six, three, and and so that was kind of where we're at when it comes to the clips, uh having you know the shorter bite-sized uh parts of our show available on the social on social media, and then the same links to all the platforms are on those posts as well.
- 8:54Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So you're really getting called like four or four doses of uh each episode on the social media post wise.
- 9:10Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Because on all four, all four.
- 9:13Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So the one, which is like the first one when we say, yep, we're dropping this episode.
- 9:20Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Here's the number, here's the title, here are all the all the links, all the platforms, hashtags, and then we're uh we're shooting for three, at least three clips per episode going forward.
- 9:41Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And then those three plus that one equals four.
- 9:45Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I know we're doing math here.
- 9:48Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh so in all four of those, you'll have the ability and say, Oh, what was the link to this particular show?
- 10:02Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And you'll be able to look four different spots, and you'll cross your feed, across your stories, your reels, all those to find where you can go directly to that full episode.
- 10:22Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And it might even be, oh, what's the latest, or oh, I know I missed three episodes, so how do I go back and forth?
- 10:36Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so with the clips, it just gives us more flexibility, uh, bringing uh again more people together, which is what we're trying to do, not what we're trying, we are doing.
- 10:51Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We're uniting, we're bringing people together, we're not dividing, and so that's huge.
- 10:59Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh I don't think we realize how huge it was or is until we started to see the numbers, like the downloads uh from episodes viewed, uh, listened to very powerful, very powerful.
- 11:30Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so once we started to see some of that early analytic information, we were able to say internally in our organization that this is probably a good thing to do, and we can always, you know, look back hindsight always is 2020 and say, Oh, wish we would have done this last year, and wish we would have done this from the beginning.
- 12:06Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Well, again, we're a small organization, and we can only do so much in a given day, in a given week, month, year, etc.
- 12:22Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So we're here, so we're here, and so going forward, we are catering more to our consumer of our podcast and TV show, and it's an it's something that's exciting, like always invigorating, but it's almost like this is kind of re-invigorating.
- 12:58Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Let me give you an example, as I always do.
- 13:05Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So in in my neck of the woods where where I am residing, the weather is cold, very chilly, and so I forget exactly when it was that I went out to go out to the car to go somewhere, go out to my car, and it wouldn't turn over, and I just got the feeling that was the battery.
- 13:45Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Say, luckily or unluckily, that's happened to me in the past.
- 13:51Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: But luckily, I was in my own driveway.
- 13:57Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I wasn't on the road on the side of a road, uh, which also happened another time that I was luckily at home when the symptoms for at least getting at least getting some getting a technician out to take a look and you do their diagnostics.
- 14:29Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So I did his diet, uh, the gentleman did the diagnostics, gave me the data, the numbers, the percentages, and I was like, oh, yeah, definitely need a new battery.
- 14:47Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So old battery taken out, new battery installed.
- 15:00Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so I kind of felt like okay, I have my car back.
- 15:11Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: My my car should run now.
- 15:19Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It should start, it it should run.
- 15:24Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um it did.
- 15:27Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so that was that was very uh very good news.
- 15:32Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so that reinvigoration in a little bit of symbolic way parallels the battery.
- 15:49Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Just like if you troubleshoot and go, wow, wow, the weather's really cold.
- 15:56Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And we know that the cooler, the colder the weather, the air in the tires goes down when the weather's warmer, it it's uh the air in the tire stays a lot longer.
- 16:20Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so that also that also occurred.
- 16:26Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So got reinvigorated from the battery, got reinvigorated with getting the four tires uh filled to the appropriate levels.
- 16:41Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And there there's always, at least for me, seems like there's usually always one, one of the four tires that is like much lower than the other ones.
- 16:58Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And and that I don't I don't know what that what that is, what that means, uh, but that was what happened again very recently after after um getting the battery installed.
- 17:22Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And more and more over the years, more and more, uh, you know, uh if you have you know gas stations and places, you know, they charge.
- 17:36Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: They're like, well, we can make some extra money here, and so you can either go and pay or go and not pay, meaning that not all places charge to check air pressure on your tires.
- 18:00Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I think I think I think personally that it is a public safety concern that being able to have the appropriate levels of air in our tires to our vehicles, whether for work or personal.
- 18:39Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I think it's a public safety concern.
- 18:43Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh what if what if somebody's not able to pay the money?
- 18:56Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And I know we're talking about a small amount of money to pay to get the air pressure checked and then you know taken out, or usually it's put put back in as usually it's usually the the numbers are low, and so we're you know looking for a way to uh install the air into the tires.
- 19:31Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So that would be something I'd like to see.
- 19:33Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: But I don't make the I don't make the laws, I don't make the rules.
- 19:37Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: But that's just something personally, I think that you know, we get nickel and dimed almost everywhere we go, everything we do.
- 19:52Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Well it would be helpful, it'd be a value add.
- 20:00Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: it might actually it might actually gain more customers to your convenient gas station, hybrid, or just the gas, gasoline.
- 20:23Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It could it again, that's something what can we look at as a small thing?
- 20:30Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: People go, oh well, I can I can get free air here and I actually need gas.
- 20:38Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And if I don't have an you know electric vehicle or hydrogen I probably could use a little gas in my gas tank.
- 21:00Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I'm just thinking from experience.
- 21:05Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Now if there's like a you know a car dealership or a mechanic they don't have a gas station there but it might also make you or I at the sign of trouble with our cars might say oh well they have free air and and maybe we we just happen to be in the right geographic location and maybe that's what we do and maybe we we we go for service because of that maybe maybe we don't but if we look at I I don't know I don't know what the cost is to put in uh an air machine that tells you you know how many PSIs the tires are at and then and then you know how you know what number you have to how much you have to put on like that let's say uh the person filled up their tires before you it was like 36 psi it maybe mine is 33 so I'd have to make sure I change the numbers on on the on the machine but that's that's a rather in the grand scheme of life it it's one of the easier things I think to to do.
- 22:55Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So all this to bring it back to be reinvigorated and that's what I feel that the clips are doing but what they have done already what they have done what they are doing currently and as we go forward I think it's a good thing I think it's something we needed to do now we're doing it so now I can stop the you know the the negative self-talk that comes in my mind of like well Justin no voices you should have done this you know a year ago and I'm trying to tune out the noise or at least that noise especially and say I can't change that I can't there's certain things I just can't change and I I can't I can't change where we were at 100 when we were at uh episode 165 I can't help like I I can go oh I wish and you know we can always look back and say oh I wonder what would happen or we could say I'm happy we found out about this now and so now we just work on ways to make our processing of our shows the most efficient most efficient for our our viewers our listeners more as efficient as possible for us as our organization when we're processing episodes and making sure we we pick the right clips the right mix they say the you know the power of threes and so that's that's what we're that's what we're gonna do going forward i i invite your feedback if you like those they are the same better worse as the uh you know the full episode post and we who knows maybe maybe the clips turn into our episode dropping maybe that's how we drop episodes going forward at some point I don't know we needed a lot more data and we need to do a for a little bit more um before we you know make that call because we're creatures I'm human beings we're we like habit even if sometimes the habits aren't the best so sometimes we are so used to seeing a particular th a particular thing in a particular place in a particular time and sometimes that doesn't matter so much so we just need more data so that's the non-glamorous part of of this but without that data we wouldn't have known that we could be potentially missing out on a portion of human beings across the world and we don't want that and so that's what we're gonna do is we what we have been doing we definitely increase the volume of shows and the content and so we look at other ways so you look at other ways of reaching people that might not know about voices for voices that might all of a sudden catch it in their feed because a friend of theirs liked it shared it subscribed thumbs up follow and that could lead as it often does right it often leads to at least the potential of others seeing that and going oh what's this what's voices for voices what what's this all about so we feel reinvigorated I feel reinvigorated my car feels reinvigorated not just the battery feeling reinvigorated because we got the old owl that needed needed juiced up and we got the new one in and we got the tires at the correct psi which is just the number so you just look for the number like sometimes maybe the front two tires may maybe have a certain number psi like if you get in like you know exotic or I should sports cars or other you know they they may have maybe a little bit different um and so that's what you just want to make sure what the case is before we start just going oh looks like the last person at 33 psi so that's what I'm gonna do and I knew I didn't know at the beginning of driving I didn't know that I learned and I don't know exactly when but I learned that you open the door and kind of in that that panel where like when you open when you shut the door and then and then you can lock it or unlock it it'll show you what what PSI uh the tires and it'll have um you know most of them have electronics in a dashboard uh where you can you can see that and sometimes you know there's a flashing light that can mean you know a multitude of things and one of those could be well tire pressure and the right front is low it's supposed to be at 33 it's at 27 probably should increase it those types of things so who would have thought that a new car battery and getting my four tires to the right psi to be able to be the most fuel efficient as possible who'd have thought that a car battery air and my car tires would cross over with being reinvigorated with clips of our voices for voices podcast and TV show who would have thought it's amazing it's amazing how things happen it is it's really is uh but they are they do they match they you know symbolically are parallel on parallel paths and that's all just in the last week week and then day or so that's just incredible by itself the fact that we're doing a show and we're able to have that crossover and we want to say thank you so very much for tuning in to the Voices for Voices TV show and podcast.
- 32:35Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Hopefully there's a few chuckles a few laughs uh a lighthearted show uh we try to do that from uh from time to time because we we know life is life's hard as it is and when we can when we can relate getting a new car battery and air in all four tires and have that having my car be reinvigorated and line that and cross that with our organization voices for voices in our show and our podcast how we can feel reinvigorated because we're bringing something brand new that our viewers our listeners uh our followers on our social media feeds that they're now seeing and hearing for the first time going oh I like this is a good idea I'm glad voices for voices did that so thank you very much we're glad that you joined us for this episode over four hundred and twenty episodes in our portfolio I can assure you 30 to 50 at least will find it's their way into your mind of the topic the guest give it a give it a try give it a shot and if you can reach out to 25 50 a hundred people text some group text the group chat uh post on your social on social media um platform let them know about the voices for voices podcasts and TV show and how we want to help over three billion people over the course of my lifetime and beyond we want to reach over three hundred countries territories provinces and over three thousand cities throughout my lifetime and beyond we're only third see the power of three you get the Joe Rogan experience you have Dan Bongino show and you have the voices for voices podcast and TV show and as you saw and heard today on this show the power of three of new car battery four tires being uh inflated to what the the the deal the manufacturer uh asks and having that cross with the clips so until we see you next time have a great day be a voice for you or somebody in need and let's celebrate the voices of everybody across the world and let's help unite let's help unite we're uniters you have nothing but love coming from us to you whether you're a believer or not we're sending good vibes your way so take care we love you and we'll see you very very soon
