Here’s the July 2020 Exclusive Odd-cast. There’s only a video version this time as there’s quite a bit that only works visually.

I was trying out some new tech for the first time while making this one and found there are still some significant teething issues, so consider it very much still a work in progress.

My plan once this video has been posted is to take a few days break away from the computer  I just feel a need to switch off all the devices and perhaps sit out in the garden, weather permitting to defrag my brain.

Since being back at the office with tons of mandatory overtime because of the backlog of work (not to mention my computer shitting the bed and needing weeks to get things back up and running again), I'm only now catching up with my favourite YouTube/Patreon content makers. Oooh. Nice gear, wipes and effects. Nice toy! Take all the downtime you need. We'll still be here. I love TV themes. And I too held up the mono brick-type cassette recorder up to the TV speaker to capture themes (not to mention whole episodes for later enjoyment--video recording being only a pipedream at the time) back in the day, back when TV themes were worthwhile, I intend to try to make some compilations of TV themes soon. I have that Gemini Man disc set. Haven't watched it yet. It's McCallum predecessor on video is kinda murky in terms of quality and shoehorned aspect ratio alterations and which release is which.

Kind of late to the party to this post, since I just became a patron the other day. Your talk about what the milestone of a million subscribers meant to you made me think of that scene at the end of “Moneyball”, where Billy Beane is made an offer to manage the Boston Red Sox, which would make him the highest-paid GM in sports. Billy is ambivalent about what the value of that offer really is (beyond the actual monetary value), until his assistant Peter says: Peter Brand: You’re not doing it for the money. Billy Beane: No? Peter Brand: No. You’re doing it for what the money says, and it says what it says to any player that makes big money, that they’re worth it. I think it’s the same deal with subscribers, it’s not the number itself, it’s what the number says about your content; that they appreciate that you’re putting something into the world that isn’t just some piece of poorly-thought-out, shaky-cam rubbish shot on a phone camera. I definitely value how much thought, time, and effort you put into your videos, and I think that’s likely also true for your subscribers and patrons. Some creators do put far higher value in getting all their numbers as high as possible, just to get them high, it seems, but the fact that you are contemplative of the actual, tangible value of said numbers tells me a lot about you. You put more stock in holding your content to a high personal standard, versus a standard that the YouTube-verse espouses as “good”. For example, in your recent cassette deck repair video, you stated that you could have easily overlaid perfect audio when you found that the playback was faulty. We would have probably never known the difference, but I’m sure at one point you stopped and thought “*I’ll* know the difference”. Character is what you are in the dark, as they say, so it’s things like that that make my subscription and patron support “worth it”. Keep up the good work.

Well thanks. It’s probably something that comes with age and health issues - you realise what’s really important and it’s not all about numbers, it’s how you feel about yourself and what you’ve done with your time. It’s a perspective that a lot of people probably only get once they’ve retired. Thanks again.
