@brennandunn @swinesayer @patio11 We're all getting old!! I don't fly yet - although planing to learn after current business!

@mclarke @swinesayer @patio11 You're very welcome! You fly IIRC, right? If so, how's that going. If not... I'm getting old 😂

End of an era. I've now officially bowed out of Double Your Freelancing. It's now fully in the good hands of @swinesayer. It's bittersweet, because this was the business that taught me about online business. I started it in 2011. At first, it was just a WordPress blog. But it quickly evolved into a bunch of courses and resources for freelancers (shoutout to anyone who remembers E-Junkie... 🤢) We ran online events: workshops, the DYF Academy, and countless live webinars. And for a few years, we even hosted conferences twice a year. One in Europe, one in the US. (It's also how I met my wife, @lauraelizdunn - so I owe the company... a lot.) For a decade of my life, DYF was: - how I made money - how I learned how to sell online - how I was able to meet so many incredibly smart people - and how I realised the power of personalised marketing It feels weird exiting... even though, truthfully, Zach's been running the show for the last few years. What I can say, however, is that the brand is in very good hands under Zach's leadership. I couldn't continue running RightMessage + all the email marketing-y projects I dabble in and run DYF. And... it's been a very long time since I've properly been a freelance consultant. I'm rusty. I can't wait to see what the next chapter of DYF looks like. Definitely give @swinesayer a follow. Best of luck, Zach!

On discussing folks behaving on buses - 11 y/o declares “young adults are the best - they’re very humble and generally quite nice”

I’m gonna give 10 random people that repost this and follow me $25,000 for fun (the $250,000 my X video made) I’ll pick the winners in 72 hours

@captfourhorns And to you - hope you and Sharon are having a great break!

@mclarke Happy festivus and Hogmanay to you buddy!

Out with Angie and Zoë!

I cannot for the life of me remember who put me onto this speech of Charlie Munger's earlier this year - but have listened to it umpteen times on the bike - open.spotify.com/episode/3qJ8kC… - really recommend it. RIP Mr Munger.

Having a terrible time trying to get an ex-employees activation lock removed from one of the company MacBook Pros. Been told a five day wait to look at... cynic in me wonders if this is to get small business owners to pay for Apple Business Essentials.

@startupstella Line, lineup or stack?

Is there a synonym for "Queue" that has the same connotation of organized/orderly but doesn't visually look odd? "List" is close, but not quite the same feeling of organization.

My personal gmail address seems to have landed on an outlook reject list - can't email kids high school, not really sure if solvable 🤷 #earlyadoptertax

@TSNSimmer Sorry to hear Shawn. :(

Thanks so much to all the great listeners and sponsors who support the station and shows I was part of. Ottawa is such a great city, and I'm so thankful to call this home. Cheers

what a finish! #NepoDing

Twice this week I’ve seen adults in a rush causing separation between a parent and a younger child; the last one directly responsible for a child nearly getting knocked over by a car. Never noticed this sort of behaviour before 🤷‍♂️

@DAZNBoxing_Help @mikeacthomas Except you can't cancel anytime - you have to wait till 8am to 11pm - and then have to wait 20 minutes to speak to someone and jump through a ridiculous amount of hoops... will not be resubscribing.

Anyone know if you can pay a one off subscription for the #JoshuaFranklin fight tonight on @DAZNBoxing or do you have to sign up for £9.99 a month ? #Joshua #AnthonyJoshua #DAZN

Been on air with the one show. I wasn’t down to be doing match of the day tomorrow, but if I was I would of said no and stood with my fellow pundits and @GaryLineker

I have informed the BBC that I won’t be appearing on MOTD tomorrow night.
