ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Here's the super uncomfortable truth this episode's built on: the day you publish makes not the slightest difference to a single download you receive. I will stake this whole show on it. And yet I still missed my Monday slot, published on a Wednesday, and felt like a failure anyway.
That first feeling — the flicker of disappointment — is fine. It's just data. It's the second feeling that does the damage.
