As a long-time listener, I love that you incorporated that little drum part from the Donovan song (the "old" intro) into the current one. Also, I think "work smarter, not harder" is definitely the way to go. Happy New Year, and thanks for doing what you do!

That release schedule question is obnoxious, what the f trying to like neg you into producing more frequently with the “competition” and “market” garbage 🤮. Appreciated your response. Keep up the great work and happy New Year!

The release schedule is fine. I think the podcast has improved dramatically in terms of quality and consistency

Just got back into playing the guitar and loved the advice & information.

I can relate to the autodidact thing. Yet my experience of fucking up is less so early in life, and might be best represented by a graph of a dampened sine curve, shifted right pi/2 < pi; where the curve represents max level of fuckery at said time point, tending to thankfully around zero with age. The arduous unwieldy description aside, what I mean is I had an easier time early on in regards to academic lurnins, and roughly understood how to learn something complicated and time-consuming in a methodical way. That and learning to play guitar to a pretty proficient degree (enough I suppose to consider it professionally; without trying to sound too up my own ass) kind of gave me "systems" to replicate when learning new skills or subjects. Something of course only possible by being born into a canuck family, in that fabled yet disappearing middle class, almost right at the moment three drunken assholes a world-away in the backwoods of Belarus illegally dissolved the USSR...which certainly had no ramifications elsewhere. Oh, and I figured I'd mention for those folks that don't have time (or too know the joys of inconsistent attention levels) to read full books, using something like SciHub to access journal articles referenced in a target book's sources, or a site like AnnasArchive/libgen (the latter a rehosted Z-lib) to access associated reference works; plus a surprising amount of obscure and tangentially related source material, can provide some shorter yet detailed reads at no-cost (or really most books in their entirety if need be). Happiest winters of discontent to all ye.

Precision Jazz Bass guitar. I still have to learn a "style". Did you used to listen to From the Wilderness back in the day? I remenber the dystopian vibes and Rupert's mental health decline.

Yeah IMO, you aren't competing with the chatty more regular podcasts. I like some of those too but you are offering a different kind of thing, and it obviously requires more prep so less regular releases seems normal. Anyway I don't know about other listeners but I choose what to listen to according to what I'm doing at the time. Yours is great for when I can pay closer attention. The biweekly chatty shows are great for when I'm doing something that splits my attention. It's good to have the variety so even if we wanted to give a shit about "markets" then you're selling a solid product.
