Can somebody please explain this timeline to me? · You're Not Too Much

  I do not know how this keeps happening. We had a day last week. Last
• 0:04
  week, a couple days ago. I don't know. What day is it? Do you know?
• 0:07
  I don't know. One of those days. We had a day last week where we
• 0:10
  got 4,000 podcast downloads in one day. And
• 0:14
  it makes me wonder if 4,000 of you have any idea
• 0:18
  what you're doing or what you're getting yourself into. And I
• 0:22
  need you to know that as soon as I saw it and it,
• 0:25
  like, I just happened to refresh late at night, not like I was refreshing all
• 0:29
  day, because nobody does that. Who does that? That' totally nobody does that.
• 0:33
  I don't do that all the time. And I refreshed, like,
• 0:37
  late at night because I was still working. And
• 0:41
  it said, like, 4023 downloads. And I was like. So I like,
• 0:44
  immediately. Actually, I think I waited till the next morning to text our producer because
• 0:48
  he's five hours ahead of us, and that would have been really mean. And also
• 0:51
  probably, like, make his wife raise an eyebrow. Like, why is somebody texting you in
• 0:55
  the middle of the night? It's just me, which is not threatening at all.
• 0:58
  And I was like, what did you do? He was like, what do you
• 1:02
  mean, what did I do? You have a podcast and people are downloading it. I
• 1:05
  was like, no, what did you do? That cannot
• 1:09
  possibly be the answer. You did something. And he's like, I
• 1:13
  edited your podcast and put it on the Internet. That is what I did. That
• 1:16
  was basically the equivalent of his response, to which that was
• 1:19
  unsatisfactory to me. And I don't understand, like, the tubers and
• 1:23
  dots behind how podcasts work. And, like,
• 1:26
  what black market podcast dealer he's selling this thing
• 1:30
  to. I don't understand how this works. But if you're one of those 4,000 people
• 1:35
  plus, because there was not a similar. I don't think it was as many, like,
• 1:38
  immediately afterward. Still, more than any person with almost no goal
• 1:42
  should be getting. Like, it's not like I'm here, like, I'm going to use
• 1:46
  this for. Or I'm a marketing strategist
• 1:49
  parading as a monk. Like, none of those things
• 1:53
  are true. It's just me yapping into a
• 1:57
  microphone and somehow there are a lot of you here as a result.
• 2:01
  And that I cannot. I still can't reconcile that.
• 2:04
  Here's the thing. Like, we ended last year with over a hundred thousand
• 2:08
  downloads in, like, just over six months. Which
• 2:11
  again, what, How? How
• 2:15
  What? I'm not saying these things to brag, because I want
• 2:19
  people to know I'm saying these things because I am genuinely, completely
• 2:23
  and a hundred percent in disbelief. That is we started
• 2:26
  this thing and I was like, do you think we could get like, do you
• 2:29
  think like maybe like a hundred people will follow? I was like, I don't know
• 2:33
  if you've heard my voice. There's nobody who's going to voluntarily show up to listen
• 2:36
  to it. It's not a great experience. And so I'm saying this because
• 2:40
  how in the world, like what timeline are we in? This is the
• 2:44
  strangest timeline. So maybe that's what happens in the strangest
• 2:47
  timeline. We kidnap pseudo
• 2:51
  dictators and I have a successful podcast. That's what happens in this weird
• 2:54
  timeline. I don't know. But anyway, thanks for being
• 2:58
  here and for, you know, giving me a modicum of self
• 3:02
  worth based on these numbers that I have no control over. And I
• 3:05
  appreciate you very much Internet.
