Seemed like he was getting burned out toward the end. Unless youre Rogan, Corolla or Jocko, podcasts don't provide a significant revenue stream.

hey man I'm a fan

Your guest is complimenting you on a comment and the best you can come up with is oh, "this was short of my yawn"? Gawd, and you wonder why your audience is shrinking faster than a d**k in a cold pool. Get your head out of your own ass, Miller.
