Welcome From The Crypto Bully

Click on the picture above to watch the video

Blockchain technology is about to transform every trust-based interaction and industry of our lives, from financial services to identity to the Internet of Things. In this podcast, The Crypto Bully gets down with industry leaders and innovators to discuss how crypto assets and blockchain will change the way we earn, spend and invest our money.

The Bull Pen is the place for our guests to relax, have a laugh and cut through the crap. The real stories behind the success is what we deliver. Authentic, informative and entertaining.

Our aim is to cut through all the noise surrounding the world of decentralized monetary value, so that you too can be a part of this historical moment in time.

Now that we've gotten all of the formal shit out of the way, What's up DTubers!!!

I made this welcome video for two important reasons:

To say hello to the DTube community and considering that this podcast is crypto/blockchain related along with almost everything else I do these days lol it only felt right to support the whole crypto/movement and community by showcasing my content on decentralized platforms as well.

Going forward all of my podcast will be released on DTube (video), Steemit (blog) and Musicoin (audio) 24 hours before being released on the centralized platforms (i.e. iTunes, Spotify, YouTube, etc.).

The reason for us deciding to make this move is that I want to get to a space where this is podcast is always 100% about the content. While sponsorship/advertising is usually highly important to podcast from an income perspective, platforms like DTube, Steemit and Musicoin gives content creators a chance to change that.

This I am very excited about!

While I want to bring in money to help support everyone on the team who is involved in making this podcast possible, I don't want to do that at the expense of our listeners. I want to keep The Bull Pen Podcast as ad free as possible.

Everyone can help do this by first, watching/listening to the podcast episodes on these 3 platforms (which doesn't require you to sign up), and secondly sharing the links to these platforms among anyone you speak to about the podcast. Each click from every awesome listener turns into cryptocurrency which helps supports The Bull Pen Podcast.

Each episode placed in the #new-episodes channel of The Bull Pen Podcast Discord will have a Steemit article link, which will contain both DTube and Musicoin links to each episode. Also, to anyone wanting to take it a step further you can sign up for accounts with these platforms and generate even more cryptocurrency for the team by liking and upvoting.

Thanks again for everyone's support and can't wait to drop the first episodes!

So What's Next?

Episode 0 and 1

Next up on the agenda are the release of the first 2 episodes of The Bull Pen Podcast featuring myself and the awesome Marco Robinson. These episodes will drop on DTube, Steemit and Musicoin today, August 20th (may be a little later in the night considering my learning curve with these new platforms lol).

Episode 0 is the "about me" episode and goes into detail on my background, how the podcast came about and a few other funny stories and facts. And Marco Robinson is the first guest interview that I will be airing to the world in the official Episode 1. This guy has an amazingly inspiring and humbling story on how he has made it to where he is today and I'm excited to share this with all of our listeners.

You may notice a few other "unorthodox" things inside of these episodes as well. ;)

Kudos To A Few

So I couldn't write this particular Steemit article without giving a shout out to a few people who have both knowingly and unknowingly helped me along the way with learning how to navigate through the DTube universe.

DJsNeverEndingStory a.k.a. @DJsNES - This guy is my bestfriend of 15+ years, the of the Crypto Until Infinity Podcast and the one responsible for introducing me to DTube platform.

Glenn a.k.a. Hive account@eccblockchain - This guy is the Media Relations Lead for ECC, the Digital Media Manager for The Bull Pen Podcast who is solely responsible for booking a lot of the awesome guest that everyone will hear in the future, and he is also the one who pointed me to the DTube Discord when my brain was too busy going a millions miles a minute preparing for our launch.

Philip a.k.a. Hive account@valorforfreedom - To anyone wondering why and how my first articles are formatted so damn well, THIS GUY IS THE REASON! He's put together some awesome video tutorials and articles on how to maximize your potential and reach while using DTube and Steemit. If you're serious about your content then these are a must read/watch.

Graylan a.k.a. Hive account@gray00 - This guy was the awesome community member within the DTube Discord that happened to be awake at 4 am CST to help me get through my issues of not knowing how to properly upload my videos to DTube...which was pretty much all my fault. LMAO

@Reseller - It was looking at this guys Steemit and DTube profile that really got me amped up and in the mindset to do some thorough research on making the most out of my DTube channel and branding them properly. He gave me the motivation to not look like an amateur even though I'm new to the platforms.

To all of the people I mentioned above I truly thank you!

In Case You Missed It!

So when I posted the snippet of episode 0 (about me) in the ECC discord, 2 days before podcast launch on August 21st, a member of the ECC team, Smaho, challenged me to do the Carlton Dance (from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) in order for him to listen. Considering that I care about the opinion of my fellow team members, and being the humorous guy that I am...CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!!
