Why I'm thankful for squeaky trash cans...

Howdy Reader! We have had a bathroom with bare concrete for YEARS because we yanked up the floor since the dogs destroyed it, and it never got fixed. I have moles making highways in my yard. My back hurts. Half the country is elated, while the other half wonders, “How cold is Canada REALLY?” At first glance, everything seems to be falling apart. AND trying to be a creator and run a business through all this noise? But I’m thankful. I’m thankful I have a home. That squeaky trashcan reminds me we’ve always had more than enough. We've had a great place with a big yard to raise our kids. My back reminds me I'm mobile and still alive. We. I heard this great quote from Kevin Kelly while editing a podcast for a client. ”If you only read the news, you’ll think things have never been worse, but if you read history, you realize things have never been better.” And here’s some more news for you. You matter. I’m thankful for YOU for reading this email. There’s an old hymn that says. “Count your blessings, name them one by one. Count your many blesssings see what God hath done.” I count you as one of my many blessings. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.* See ya around the interwebs, P.S. I’ve been collecting deals and specials for this holiday season; if you’d like to get those emails, click here! * If you celebrate U.S. Thanksgiving. If you're not, have a thankful rest of your week 😁 |

Howdy Reader! There is a profile on the internet with your name on it that you've not edited in about three years. Other people are looking at it. Two things changed on LinkedIn this year. The feed stopped running on your own network, and only about a third of what people see now comes from their own connections, so your posts land in front of strangers. At the same time, AI assistants started reading LinkedIn to answer questions like "who should I hire for this?" So now we know both new...
Howdy Reader! Mike Allton is one of my BBFs (which stands for Before Beard Friend). I've known him since the Google Plus days, which, in internet years, was right after AOL stopped sending you floppy discs. So when he asked me to join his new podcast, The AI Social Playbook, I said yes before he finished the sentence. He had me walk through the animated open for The Makers Table, my Friday craft show with Katie Fawkes. Claymation-style, twelve scenes, two characters who still look like the...
Howdy Reader! Eighteen Disney Legends. Twenty years of conversations. And almost none of them used the word magic. They said curious. They said story. They said detail. They said we tried it, it did not work, and we tried something else. Today, we're sitting down with Lou Mongello, host and creator of WDW Radio and a Podcast Hall of Fame inductee, who has been sitting across the table from the people who actually built Disney since 2005. Imagineers, composers, animators, and the executives...
