One year ago today, the first episode of Human Equals Paradox came out.
With the help and encouragement of MANY people, especially my producer Mattia Mauree, I made 18 episodes last year and kept them coming in a pretty steady flow.
I have a background as a data analyst, and when I realized we were almost at this year mark I was fascinated to see that those 18 episodes had been downloaded over 3,200 times in FIFTY-FIVE different countries. :-O
And that's just from my podcast host - that's not including those of you who listen from the Patreon.
Forty-four of those countries have repeat listeners, and 27 have more than 10 downloads.
These are TINY numbers compared to most podcasts, which I totally get - but for me it's really a big deal. I'm not out promoting it, trying to drive up numbers. I don't run ads. If new people are listening, it's because someone told them about it, and that's the most incredible thing to me.
I never thought I'd do this at all, and to know that there are more than a handful of people out there who find these ideas interesting, helpful, and worth giving time and attention to? That's WILD. Entirely wonderful and still wild!
This thank-you ep is about 23 minutes and I talk a bit about how I got here, and what it means to be here, before having a fun time with the location data and giving many shout-outs to many places around the world who have dipped into my work.
I'll be back to the archetypal goodness next episode - but for now, THANK YOU. Thank you. Thank you!
