Pismine3 karma

You say you set out to do this podcast because you wanted to find love and start by working backwards from your mistakes. 5 years on are you married or in a continuous long term relationship yet and if not why do you think your podcast experiment has failed and why would anyone continue listening?

Thanks for answering, I took your description and came to a logical question. If your goal was to work backwards to discover your faults and find a long term relationship; that is to say, to learn from your mistakes and grow as a person; one would think you should have achieved that now.

Those mistakes will undoubtedly contain similar underlying themes such as lack of communication, transparency, support, etc. meaning these become skills you start to develop.

While it is understandable that having those skills doesn't mean you won't make future mistakes, nor guarantee a relationship won't fail it does mean you are dramatically less likely to allow a mistake to not be addressed and solved early so that it doesn't lead to resentment.

You've now changed things say you aren't even looking for a full time relationship anymore which according to you is the whole pretext of the show. So what makes your podcast worth listening to? Telling me you think it's great isn't an answer. You're here to sell your podcast, so sell it. Why should we listen to you cry or have awkward conversations after 5 years and nothing to show for it?

And a follow up question, are you seeing your original core audience fall off now that you aren't looking for love anymore?

So I asked why someone should listen and you said "because I think it's great". I then asked again clarifying that "because it's great isn't an answer" and asking you to do what you came here to do and sell your podcast. Your answer is "other people think it's great too".

I guess what you're saying is this podcast exists to try and build career momentum for something else you'd rather be doing. I guess what you're also saying is you don't really know why someone should listen but you want to build that momentum so you'll use whatever it takes to get there.

That's interesting, thanks for answering.
