Do You Need a Viking Helmet? I Bet You Do

Feedback Followup Friday and my brother-in-law’s new video and Patreon page you should check out.
Speaker 1:

Hello. Welcome to Daily's for Friday, September 18. It's eight degrees five degrees actually, not eight. Feels like four. This is not a weather podcast though.

Speaker 1:

This episode of Daily is brought to you by FeedPress. Feed.press slash dailyish is where you can visit today to sign up for fourteen day free trial of FeedPress, which is an RSS analytics and podcast hosting platform for your podcast, for your blog. They got a great integrated newsletter, so you can automatically send out a newsletter to folks who listen or subscribe to your podcast or blog. Sorry. Had to turn the volume up, down, up, down a little bit so I can hear myself, which is a weird thing that you have to do when you're recording a podcast.

Speaker 1:

And also brought to you by Patreon supporters like you. If you visit patreon.com/ichris is where you can check out how you can support me with a couple bucks a month or $15,000,000 a month, whichever, one of the two, and enable me to do more podcasting, which is awesome because I love doing podcasting. So thanks to the, people who are supporting me on Patreon. It's feedback follow-up Friday. I don't have any feedback to follow-up on.

Speaker 1:

But, just to let you guys know, Patreon the Patreon level support is at still at, 23 patrons, $95 a month, which is awesome. Thank you all for your support. No, video version this week, or did I? No. I didn't do a video version this week.

Speaker 1:

But, trying to get back on that horse next week as it were. Just timing in the morning with school and etcetera means it's hard to get all of this all my ducks in a row. But I was also, I did record draft one of my Patreon video that I need to do for the Patreon page, but I hate my face, so I'm gonna redo it with a different face, I think. However, my brother-in-law did launch his Patreon page and, a new video to go along with it on his YouTube channel. So if you need to know how to make a steampunk Viking helmet out of craft foam and stuff, you can check out his video.

Speaker 1:

The link will be in the show notes, which you can find at goodstuff.fm/daily/130five. But if you visit patreon.com/lostwax, yeah, /lostwax, that link will be in the show notes as well. But, he's got a fun little video that he did sort of welcoming folks to his page. And within, yeah, minutes or I don't know, hours or whatever of sending out his, list he's got an email list of people who bought patterns and stuff from him. He's got, I think it was $40 a month, so that's pretty good.

Speaker 1:

Good start. And, he has a neat neat mode of doing it where with Patreon, which we talked about a bit, but, like, where he sells, patterns from his videos. That's what his he shows you how to make something and then sells a pattern off of that so you don't have to design it yourself. You just print off the pattern and cut things out and glue it all together. And, and so if you support him on Patreon at I think it's the five dollar a month level, I forget.

Speaker 1:

Then you get just get the patterns for free, which is great. Like they he usually sells them for $3.04, $5.06, $7 somewhere in there depending on the pattern. And so you just basically are kinda subscribing to getting all the patterns he puts out for free, which is great. Or not for free, but whatever you $5 or more. So that's awesome because then he, he knows what's gonna he's gonna get as far as money when he puts out a pattern.

Speaker 1:

It's little more stable way of of building a business. And, and people also can, you know, get a bit of behind the scenes stuff and things just like everybody else seems to be doing on Patreon. So that's awesome. Check out the video. Check out his Patreon page, and check out me as I go to Starbucks for the morning and hear from my friend Carrie about the XOXO conference festival thing that she got to go to down in Portland.

Speaker 1:

So, there's that. Have a good Friday. We'll see you back on Monday or Tuesday next week. Have a great weekend. Bye.
