Hello hello! It's season three! How is It season  three? Well it's here, it happened, we did a   thing! Welcome to the Social Media for Humans  podcast, that was what I was supposed to say.   It's been a long time since I did one of these so  a little bit of grace would be appreciated while I   figure out how this all works again. So this is  not going to be an overly interesting episode,   probably shouldn't start with that, but I am  just going to fill you in a little bit because   there's going to be some changes around here.  So for long-term listeners there will be guest   episodes this season however there will be  fewer, so I'm gonna focus on far more short,   just me episodes chatting about various social  media things. To be fair probably gonna also   veer off into like neurodivergent  productivity and ethical business and   the fact I'm going to learn to sew, who knows, who  knows where we'll go! I'll try and keep it roughly   social media businessy, we'll see. Another  update the I was going to say videos, I mean   there are videos if you're listening to this on  a podcast app there's a video version on YouTube. The episodes will be shorter so they are going to  be, well the the short episodes with me are going   to be between 10 and 20 minutes I'm gonna say  based on last season, we'll see, I'm gonna keep   them short, we're going for short. And the guest  episodes that I do do will be long juicy chats   but I will also be releasing a 10 to 20, 15 to  20 minutes episode of the the real highlights   from the guest episode so if you're someone  who's like in my DMs, I see you, saying "these   guest episodes are like super amazing, they look  really interesting, where am I going to find an   hour or an hour and a half of my day to sit down  and listen to them Lex? Where am I going to find   this time?" You know, you don't have to okay, I am  gonna chop them up, the episodes not the guests,   it sounds like a threat to the guests I  have already spoken to, it's not I promise!   So I would chopping them up into short, er  well much shorter episodes so that you can   get all the really important information  and the best bits from the guest episodes   in a much shorter amount of time. And also  if you were one of those people in my DMs   I am going to be chopping up the guest episodes  from previous seasons, so I am gonna essentially   be re-releasing the old guest episodes as 10, 15,  20 minute ish, somewhere around there, episodes   of the the real juicy bits. So that is  what is happening with the podcast. Also   very exciting update but I feel silly making  it in this episode but I have a microphone,   like a fancy proper microphone, I'm not  using right now because it's not here   and neither is the stand for it to live  on so that makes it difficult to use it,   and then I was gonna wait to film but also I  decided I was going to film today and if I don't   do it today it will just be like "oh but I did the  podcast yesterday," and I didn't and it was on my   to-do list but it didn't happen so it's happening  and you can enjoy the terrible quality on this mic   and then you can appreciate the excellent  quality on the new mic for the next episode!   Okay what other information do I have  for you? Oh coming up confirmed guests;   Caitlin Fisher, we love them! Caitlin was in  the Social Media for Humans Club last year,   they did a workshop on goal setting for humans,  which was wildly popular and frankly incredible,   so I am very very very excited to have them on the  podcast. There is also a shamefully old episode   that I recorded in May of last year. Okay  I record a lot of the guest episodes,   for previous seasons I used  to record very much in bulk   and then I would release them, turns out  not the best podcasting plan. However   so I recorded an episode on accessibility and  inclusivity on social media with Rebecca Thorne,   that episode, that interview will be coming out,  okay do I commit to this? This is the question.   Yes, do it! It will be coming out, the full  episode, on February the 13th, is that a Friday?   February the, it's a Monday! Good job I know  what day my podcast is coming out isn't it?!   So that episode will be coming out, it's a  very long episode, but again there will be   a shorter version available so that's  exciting. Well I think it's exciting.   So that will be the first one that comes out. I I  also have confirmed Lisa from Scaling Deep whose   podcast I have also been on, so that's exciting,  I will be chatting to her later in the year.   So that's all, it's all exciting, there are  exciting guests but also reminder mostly you're   just gonna get me, possibly this unicorn. If you,  again, if you're on podcasts like audio only,   I will post a photo of the unicorn to my  Instagram, okay, that's that's my middle   ground. If you're on YouTube, you can appreciate  the unicorn as it is. Okay, clearly I am very out   of practice with this so I am gonna drink some  hot chocolate and figure out what I'm doing with   my life! If this is relatable content let  me know. Okay so first episode is dropping,   well this episode, you don't need to know when  that's dropping because you're listening to it,   and then yes, stay tuned for shorter versions  of old guest episodes. If you have a favorite   I am open to recommendations for where you would  like me to start chopping up guest episodes,   again episodes not guests, so if there is  something that you were like "oh I really really   wanted to listen to that but do not have the time,  or the attention span, or the anything else to   actually listen to the whole thing, please please  put out the shortened, awesome version of it,"   slide into my DMs, send me an email, there  are links in show notes and descriptions   and just all over the place really.  Yeah, I think that's, stop talking,   stop talking Lex, stop talking, drink  your hot chocolate! How do I end these?   How do I? Take care of yourselves, that's  how I end these! So take care of yourselves!
