I’ve been silent the last several days as I worked out the code, listened to podcast (past/future) to make timestamps, and set up a release schedule for the content. Basically, I will be releasing at least one set of timestamped show notes for existing episodes each day. This is to make it easier for new people joining us to check out different sections, and for people who have been with us from the start who want to be able to jump around as they please. I hope you all love the new way to engage with the content. I’m constantly working and thinking of new ways to engage with you all. Any and all feedback and criticism is welcome. I take it all equally. I know I have a lot to learn! 🙂
Remember to 1) Get signed up for the email list, which puts out something new every Monday, 2) Stay tuned for new episodes on Tuesday, and 3) Check out the website on Thursdays as I am constantly putting out new stuff around then!
21 total new timestamps for Adora’s episode that you can use to jump around in the audio. All timestamps are hyperlinked at the website/show notes to take you right to that part of the podcast! 🙂
