Reflecting on the Break
00:00:25
Speaker

Speaker
recorded. um I'm also going look at putting a few other stuff on the podcast feed. um Again, I won't say too much about it because I feel like if I say it in a recorded medium and then it doesn't happen, then there's evidence of my...
00:01:17
Speaker
of my false promises but I've been yeah exploring um putting putting a few other things I guess things along the lines of my Santa Claus Christmas special which was a lot of fun to do even though I'm not sure anybody listened to it except for Dan McQuaid shout out to Dan McQuaid who apparently listened to it with his family which uh which is uh kind of beautiful to be honest ah So, as I said, season two of What Makes You Tick is going to start next Wednesday, and next wednesday the

We had a great conversation about his whole acting journey, the different things he's done, some of his writing, and some Steven Spielberg talk that I absolutely loved.

The New Theme Song Journey
00:02:07
Speaker
ah but but you know we still we still got there we still got that the the other thing i wanted to say it is that the podcast has a new theme song the last one i liked it but about halfway through the run of episodes last year i realized that it was generated by AI and I'm not really cool with that.
00:02:26
Speaker
um It was around the same time I started work so I didn't really have the the bandwidth to to do much about it. I felt very morally compromised for a little while but I've used some time over the break to source a new theme song. This is actually a theme song that's been recorded specially for What Makes You Tick. It's never been heard anywhere else in the world except by myself and the composer and My girlfriend as she overhears me editing the podcast. So this is from ah my friend Adam Sams. He's a great musician. he's He's done all sorts of music over the years and I've known him since school probably in fact more, more than 20 years. um It's its as an absolutely amazing piece of music. It totally whips. It keeps a similar vibe to before but It's you can definitely tell this is created by a human being and not an algorithm. So I'm very happy with it. Hopefully, hopefully people
