Get ready for the next episode of the Kids Talk Media podcast featuring brother and sister, Lincoln and Harper, ages 6 and 7. With iPads in their hands, they showed me their favorite games, including SlitherIO, Roblox Fashion Famous, Neon Splash, Angry Birds Transformers and Fruit Ninja-- a favorite because “I can't cut fruits in real life!” I discovered who gets to approve new friends on Kids Messenger; why the Haschak Sisters on YouTube are a favorite; and what Spongebob and cotton candy have in common! Check it out! I hope you enjoy it.

I've been losing interest in conventions lately as they seem to be primary a over glorified market place with everyone selling the same over priced figures from both retail and custom. I have no issue with people wanting to sell thier wares, but a FB page or website can do that just fine without the growing fees for having a table at some of these conventions 02:22:03 OUTRO Thank you for listening, shameless plugs, the week ahead.

Baratunde Thurston's escape from the Internet. He launched JasonDoesStuff.com and then turned off his social profiles. He did this to prove that people would still come, read his posts, and reach out to him without using social media. Social media is an addiction. People do it while they drive and while they are spending time with their loved ones. Try deleting social apps off your phone for a weekend or a week. Try it for December to realign your goals. What happens November 1st? I wouldn't have had the success I've had without social media. Jason still plans to continue using Instagram. I want to challenge myself to say I don't need social media. Facebook changes. The email algorithm doesn't change. Focus 100% on email. Jason used his email list of 623 people to raise $30,000 in the first day of bidding for his last name. You don't need big numbers to feel validated. Focus on events you want to be at. Be challenged by going to things that put you out of your comfort zone. Gary Vaynerchuk is the biggest person in the social media space, but people don't know who he is outside of that space. We think our social world is so big.
