About the Podcast

Themindhere was a biweekly podcast hosted by yours truly. In earlier episodes, I provided updates and insight into my YouTube channel content, followed by some various thoughts that I had throughout the weeks. Following a change in channel purpose and personal goals, the podcast became a platform for me to voice my ideas about new knowledge I learned, share new insights, and express my opinions about the current state of humanity.

This podcast started out as an exercise of my speaking abilities, but over time grew into a platform for a genuine conversation with the outside world in a way that wasn't available before. For much of the podcast history, I treated it as a hobby project, but I began to see it more as a serious medium of expression. I have yet to monetize the podcast. The goal of the podcast was to practice my communication skills as well as spark some interesting and mindful conversations about society. I aimed not to extract value from those around me but to give and bring out value for others. This podcast was just one way I tried to do so.

After continually churning out episodes for around two years, I felt that something else was necessary, and I closed this project down. I have no regrets for creating all those episodes, but with the passage of time, my interests and priorities shifted to the point where the podcast no longer served my purpose well enough. All episodes will remain available for others to see, however, should anyone be interested in them.
