Announcement_for_FinCon16
00:00:00.000 | Good morning, Radicals.
00:00:02.440 | This is Joshua Sheets, September 21, 2016, early on Wednesday morning here, working in
00:00:08.320 | my home office.
00:00:09.320 | I'm getting on an airplane later today.
00:00:11.200 | Today's actually my son's third birthday, so I'm taking the day off and we're taking
00:00:14.920 | him to the zoo to celebrate his third birthday, having a small birthday party.
00:00:18.600 | And then this afternoon, I'm getting on an airplane and flying out to San Diego for FinCon
00:00:23.600 | 2016.
00:00:25.220 | So quick update.
00:00:26.220 | One, I apologize for the lack of shows last week and this week.
00:00:31.640 | I have not intentionally taken the time off.
00:00:34.520 | I've just been a little bit overwhelmed, and so I apologize.
00:00:37.200 | I feel like that's kind of been the theme of the last year, and I'm making progress
00:00:39.840 | toward that regard.
00:00:41.480 | Some people have said, "Hey, Joshua, where are all the shows?"
00:00:44.320 | And some people have said, "Wow, it's great.
00:00:45.560 | I can finally keep up with you."
00:00:46.560 | So no matter what I do, I guess I please some people and don't please others.
00:00:51.840 | So I haven't intentionally pulled back to the very small number of shows.
00:00:56.420 | Last week, I published two.
00:00:57.780 | This week, I had intended to have five or six out, but my apologies.
00:01:03.500 | I'm still working and learning, and I'm doing the best that I can.
00:01:06.900 | But I'm behind as far as flying out of town.
00:01:09.360 | So first, just want to let you know that, and I apologize for that.
00:01:11.780 | Number two, if you're going to be in San Diego, I would love to meet up with you.
00:01:16.340 | Or if you are in San Diego, even if you're not planning to come to the FinCon, Financial
00:01:21.740 | Bloggers usually formally knows the Financial Bloggers Conference, but it's probably the
00:01:25.180 | big premier conference for my little industry here, financial media, and new financial media
00:01:30.580 | especially.
00:01:31.580 | Even if you're not in FinCon, just want to let you know and give you a heads up that
00:01:34.580 | I will be in San Diego.
00:01:37.100 | And my entire purpose for coming to FinCon is to hang out with all of y'all, listeners
00:01:42.660 | of this show.
00:01:43.900 | So I will be extremely available.
00:01:46.520 | Please reach out to me on Twitter would be the best way.
00:01:49.900 | Reach out to me on Twitter @JoshuaSheets.
00:01:52.700 | Remember my name is spelled S-H-E-A-T-S.
00:01:56.280 | So my Twitter username is @JoshuaSheets.
00:02:02.720 | But if you're in the San Diego area, or if you will be at FinCon, please know that I
00:02:07.060 | am coming to FinCon to hang out with you.
00:02:08.780 | I'll be completely flexible.
00:02:10.540 | I have very few scheduled appointments, and I'll be very available.
00:02:14.060 | So reach out to me on Twitter and set something up.
00:02:15.460 | If you see me in the hallway, make sure to come and see me, and please introduce yourself
00:02:19.660 | I'm coming for the purpose of hanging out with all of you who are listeners.
00:02:25.020 | One of the best things about doing a podcast is I can create lots of content and share
00:02:28.700 | it with other people.
00:02:30.060 | One of the worst things is that it's often one-way content.
00:02:32.740 | So when I go to events like this, I like to do that so I can just listen to you and hear
00:02:36.300 | your story.
00:02:37.380 | So I won't be interested in much in talking about me.
00:02:39.620 | I'll be interested in listening to you.
00:02:40.940 | So please, if you're in the San Diego area, I will be in San Diego for Thursday, Friday,
00:02:46.060 | and Saturday.
00:02:47.060 | Saturday night, I'm taking the Red Eye back to West Palm Beach.
00:02:50.060 | So Thursday, Friday, and Saturday in the San Diego area, reach out to me on Twitter.
00:02:54.620 | If you want to have breakfast with me, lunch with me, dinner with me, I have a couple of
00:02:57.580 | scheduled things, but I will make myself extremely available, and I'll put out announcements
00:03:01.820 | on social media about where I'm going to be.
00:03:03.460 | So I would love to meet up with you, and I will get shows published as I am able.
00:03:09.420 | And my sincere apologies for the lack of shows this week.
00:03:13.140 | continue to improve things here at Radical Personal Finance HQ and make them better in
