This Podcast Will Fail
by Just Some Guy
Join me on Twitter (some of us still can): https://twitter.com/podcast_failThe idea is pretty simple. After 15 years of constantly marketing, promoting & hyping everything I created I got tired of failing. I was trying too hard to "Make a name" for myself. This time, it doesn't matter who I am. I am not going to run myself into the ground trying to get eyeballs & earholes on my work. This time, I'm just talking & positing it. This time I know I'm going to fail in advance to see if that changes it. I'm still pretty sure this podcast will fail. Then again I could be wrong so, who knows?
