“I find the best way is to just make it available to people and don't try to shove it down their throats, and then with social media, just kind of
create a memorable and entertaining channel comprised of media and unique personality that people can relate to
and will want to tune into. and hopefully they'll decide to listen to my stuff. but its ultimately up to them. the more you have to ask people to listen, the lesser will become the perceived value attached to it.”
