[Speaker 0] Good morning.

Good evening.

Good afternoon.

Whatever the [Speaker 0] case may be.

This is Mike, and this [Speaker 0] is Mike Dell's world number four thirty six [Speaker 0] and also episode thirty of NAPOD promo twenty [Speaker 0] twenty five.

We did it.

Well, okay.

I [Speaker 0] did it.

But I tell you what, it [Speaker 0] it has inspired me this year.

I don't [Speaker 0] know what it is about this year versus [Speaker 0] other years of doing the daily, podcast, and [Speaker 0] and I have been kind of doing it [Speaker 0] daily.

And what I mean by that is [Speaker 0] sometimes I record ahead a little bit, but [Speaker 0] not always.

You know, a lot of times [Speaker 0] it was same day or night before usually, [Speaker 0] and then I set it to go in [Speaker 0] the morning.

And, yeah, that's, but, you know, [Speaker 0] I did all thirty, and I did them [Speaker 0] relatively daily.

You know, like I said, I [Speaker 0] would record a couple of them sometimes ahead [Speaker 0] a little bit, like this one.

I'm actually [Speaker 0] recording this, on Thanksgiving, so it's a few [Speaker 0] days ahead of time.

But, I I wanna [Speaker 0] get this out.

I've got a, I've got [Speaker 0] an announcement.

I wanted to get this out, [Speaker 0] and I've just been really anxious about it.

[Speaker 0] And I'm gonna get this queued up so [Speaker 0] you won't hear it until Sunday, but happy [Speaker 0] Sunday.

Hopefully, the snow hasn't been too bad.

[Speaker 0] Here on Thanksgiving, it's not been too bad.

[Speaker 0] But, again, it's predicted to be snowmageddon, but [Speaker 0] usually when they predict snowmageddon, it doesn't happen.

[Speaker 0] As they talked about in the blizzard of [Speaker 0] seventy eight, they they weren't really predicting it [Speaker 0] to be crazy except for one one of [Speaker 0] the weatherman, did, but, nobody else expected it [Speaker 0] to be that bad.

But holy crud.

Hopefully, [Speaker 0] we don't have anything like that.

But, anyhoo, [Speaker 0] my big announcement.

And, you know, some of [Speaker 0] you might already heard about it.

I've kinda [Speaker 0] sorta posted it around a little bit, but [Speaker 0] I'm, starting a new daily show tomorrow, December [Speaker 0] first.

I'm gonna be, doing a new show, [Speaker 0] new feed, new everything called cup of Traverse [Speaker 0] City.

That sounds like a weird name, but [Speaker 0] what what this is gonna be is a [Speaker 0] five minute or so show that I'm gonna [Speaker 0] do in the morning when I'm drinking my [Speaker 0] coffee.

And who knows what I'm gonna talk [Speaker 0] about?

I'm gonna talk for, you know, four [Speaker 0] or five minutes and tell you what's going [Speaker 0] on around here, what's going on in my [Speaker 0] world.

Not not Mike Dell's world, but the [Speaker 0] world around Traverse City.

Just, you know, a [Speaker 0] daily snippet.

I'm only gonna do it Monday [Speaker 0] through Friday, though.

I'm not gonna do it [Speaker 0] on the weekends.

And part of that is [Speaker 0] that I'll probably have topics as I go [Speaker 0] through the week that I wanna expand on, [Speaker 0] and that's what I'll do here on Mike [Speaker 0] Dell's world.

So in theory I know I've [Speaker 0] said this a hundred times before, so, you [Speaker 0] know, it is what it is.

But in [Speaker 0] theory, I'll do, Mike Dell's world episode weekly [Speaker 0] sometime along the week when I have time [Speaker 0] and the inclination.

But I do plan on, [Speaker 0] you know, most days, do the five minute [Speaker 0] cup of Traverse City.

Now there'll be times [Speaker 0] when I'm out of town.

You know, I've [Speaker 0] got some, travel on the agenda, and I [Speaker 0] may or may not publish while I'm on [Speaker 0] travel.

But I will let you guys know [Speaker 0] ahead of time, those of you that decide [Speaker 0] to go over and check out Cup of [Speaker 0] Traverse City.

You could get there by going [Speaker 0] to cup of traverse city dot com, or [Speaker 0] you can, go directly to the source.

I [Speaker 0] think I did mention this on another episode.

[Speaker 0] Oh, well.

But this is my big announcement.

[Speaker 0] I am gonna do it.

I'm committed to [Speaker 0] it.

We're gonna do it.

You can also [Speaker 0] go to podcast dot show slash c o [Speaker 0] t c, you know, cup of Traverse City.

[Speaker 0] And it's gonna be a hyper local show.

[Speaker 0] It's gonna be a show mostly about Traverse [Speaker 0] City and what's going on here.

You know, [Speaker 0] probably talk about the weather a fair amount [Speaker 0] depending on what's going on in the weather.

[Speaker 0] You know, sometimes it's boring, but sometimes it's [Speaker 0] not.

You know?

So it's gonna evolve, you [Speaker 0] know, what topics I talk about, all that.

[Speaker 0] But, it's gonna be a little five minute [Speaker 0] update every day, you know, something of hopefully [Speaker 0] use.

If not anything else entertaining and kinda [Speaker 0] Twitter sized snippets.

But, I've got it down [Speaker 0] to, you know, my production down to a [Speaker 0] science.

I mean, literally, it's gonna be flip [Speaker 0] the mic on, talk for five minutes, stop [Speaker 0] it, publish it, be done with it, and, [Speaker 0] you know, I can get that going, you [Speaker 0] know, within ten, fifteen minutes.

And that's that's [Speaker 0] gonna be the key to the success.

You [Speaker 0] know, if it's hard to do, you know, [Speaker 0] people don't tend to do stuff that's hard [Speaker 0] all the time.

So this won't be particularly [Speaker 0] hard for me.

Hopefully, it won't be particularly [Speaker 0] hard for you.

Actually, I did yeah.

When [Speaker 0] I mentioned the ads, right, I do have [Speaker 0] a couple of test episodes over there, and [Speaker 0] I did I I do have one there [Speaker 0] where I talk about how to subscribe, and [Speaker 0] or follow the podcast and probably, you know, [Speaker 0] some other ways than just a normal podcast [Speaker 0] app.

Yeah.

It works.

Of course, it's gonna [Speaker 0] work in all the podcast apps as well, [Speaker 0] but, you know, there there's a couple of [Speaker 0] apps that might get it there quicker so [Speaker 0] you can listen to it in not quite [Speaker 0] real time.

I'm not gonna go live.

Although, [Speaker 0] I do have the capability.

I don't think [Speaker 0] you don't get enough people doing that.

Listen [Speaker 0] live, and you don't wanna have to be [Speaker 0] somewhere at a certain time, but, hopefully, it'll [Speaker 0] be published somewhere around eight AM.

Again, you [Speaker 0] know, it could be a little later, could [Speaker 0] be a little earlier, could you know, if [Speaker 0] I have to prerecord one, I might record [Speaker 0] one the night before, and it'll go real [Speaker 0] early.

But for the most part, it's gonna [Speaker 0] be same day, around eight o'clock in the [Speaker 0] morning eastern time, Traverse City time.

And, yeah.

[Speaker 0] Go over there and check that out at [Speaker 0] cup of traverse city dot com and, get [Speaker 0] signed up.

There's, you know, there's links there [Speaker 0] to Apple and Spotify and podcast index and [Speaker 0] email and Android and all the other places.

[Speaker 0] And then if you scroll all the way [Speaker 0] to the bottom of that page that comes [Speaker 0] up, you'll see a thing that, says modern [Speaker 0] podcast apps.

If you use one of those [Speaker 0] apps, it's gonna update fairly instantly after I [Speaker 0] publish.

Now, you know, technology being what technology [Speaker 0] is, it might not always work.

But, anyway, [Speaker 0] something interesting for those of you around Traverse [Speaker 0] City or those interested in around Traverse City.

[Speaker 0] This is my attempt at a hyperlocal daily [Speaker 0] podcast.

So check it out over at cup [Speaker 0] of Traverse City dot com and or, podcast [Speaker 0] dot show slash c o t c.

And [Speaker 0] I will catch you tomorrow on Cup of [Speaker 0] Traverse City and probably next weekend on Mike
