00:00:02.359 --> 00:00:06.120
Looking at our world from a theological perspective. This is

2
00:00:06.120 --> 00:00:13.560
the Theology Central podcast, making Theology Central. A lot can

3
00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:20.199
happen in twelve hours. Sometimes it's a little shocking. It's

4
00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:25.079
amazing how many things can happen in a twelve hour

5
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:31.039
time span. But the last twelve hours has been pretty crazy,

6
00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:35.520
a little frustrating, a little irritating, a little confusing, and

7
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:38.240
we still don't have a lot of answers, but we're

8
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.039
going to try to find some answers right now. So

9
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:45.039
with all of that said, welcome everyone. It is Thursday,

10
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:50.960
October seventeenth, twenty twenty four. It is currently twelve two

11
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.479
pm Central Time, and I am coming to you live

12
00:00:54.600 --> 00:01:00.479
from the Theology Central studio located right here in Abilene, Texas. Well.

13
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:06.079
It was inside this studio at twelve am it's now

14
00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:12.920
twelve pm. At twelve am, inside this studio, I started

15
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:21.799
receiving notifications email messages from two sources, one Spreaker, our

16
00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:26.280
podcast hosting site, and the other YouTube. And I'm like,

17
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:31.400
what is going It's twelve am, what is happening? And

18
00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:33.879
I've come to find out a lot of things that

19
00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:37.840
I thought were happening weren't happening and everything was changing.

20
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:41.760
So let me try to explain. I don't know how

21
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:43.680
many days ago it was. I'd have to go back

22
00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:47.959
and try to. Look. I started receiving messages from our

23
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:53.879
podcast hosting site, which is Spreaker. Spreaker informed me, Hey,

24
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:56.599
remember way back in the day when we asked you

25
00:01:56.599 --> 00:01:58.840
if you wanted to be on YouTube? Yeah, I remember,

26
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:01.959
and remember how you've not had to do anything because

27
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:05.120
all of your episodes have just been automatically sent to YouTube.

28
00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:09.000
And basically, you know, we've kind of controlled everything and

29
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:11.759
you just all you do is broadcast and everything shows

30
00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:15.080
up on YouTube. And you didn't even even really create

31
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:17.639
your YouTube channel. We kind of created it for you.

32
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.800
Well guess what this is, basically what Speaker told me,

33
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:24.039
and I'm kind of paraphrasing, Well, guess what Those days

34
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:27.479
are over. We're no longer sending your information to YouTube.

35
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:31.520
We're going to stop either today or the following Thursday

36
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:35.800
or so. It was going to either be today, October seventeenth,

37
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:38.439
or next Thursday that they were going to stop. They

38
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:40.240
were just gonna cease, and that was going to be

39
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:42.319
the end. They were no longer going to send any

40
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:45.719
more content to YouTube. Well, as soon as they told

41
00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:48.039
me that, I was like, well, I've got a problem here,

42
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:50.800
all right, So now what do I do? Because it's

43
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:55.080
an audio podcast, so I can't just necessarily easily upload

44
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:58.479
an audio file to YouTube. It has to be in

45
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:01.439
somewhat of a video format. So what do I do?

46
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:04.599
What do I do? Okay, well, I guess I could

47
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:09.080
after I'm done doing a broadcast. Sermonadio has a kind

48
00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:13.039
of an archived copy of that broadcast and it's in

49
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.840
a video format. I could upload that to YouTube. Well

50
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:19.719
I'd have to edit it then upload it to YouTube,

51
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:22.960
or no, upload it to Sermonadio. Then once the video

52
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:26.919
is there, then download it then upload it to you YouTube.

53
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.080
And I'm like, well do I am I even going

54
00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:31.599
to do all of this? So there was So I

55
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:37.080
basically did a message telling everyone, hey, attention YouTube listeners. Look,

56
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:39.800
basically YouTube is going to go away. Our podcast hosting

57
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.560
site says they're no longer longer going to upload anything.

58
00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:47.120
I could go through this very you know, somewhat frustrating,

59
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:50.960
time consuming process to try to get content to YouTube,

60
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:54.639
But if I look at the YouTube numbers, I don't

61
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:57.039
know if it's really worth it. Considering my podcast is

62
00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.599
available on every platform on Earth, Hey just go listen

63
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:03.879
somewhere else, right, So you know, I sent that message

64
00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:06.919
and then I kept checking YouTube, going why have I

65
00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:10.560
not received one comment? I was like, there's no comments.

66
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:12.759
I'm not getting an email, so obviously the people who

67
00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:16.279
listen on YouTube just don't care. So then I was like,

68
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:18.680
I'm gonna just go in and delete the YouTube channel

69
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:21.120
and just be done and just move on, right, because

70
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:23.959
obviously no one cares. So I was not giving it

71
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:27.000
any thought, and I just came to the conclusion that

72
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:30.639
it's over. Well. Then all of a sudden, at about midnight,

73
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:35.360
I started getting messages and Spreaker is like, hey, we've

74
00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:39.199
already stopped. We were going to wait till either today,

75
00:04:39.319 --> 00:04:44.279
October seventeenth or before to cut off sending any more

76
00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:47.600
new episodes to YouTube. We've already stopped. So none of

77
00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:50.600
your episodes have been going to YouTube for now for

78
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.160
like I don't know, a week. And so I went

79
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:58.480
and looked, and I'm like, well, this is great. I

80
00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:01.959
record an entire message for YouTube listeners and they've never

81
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:05.079
heard it because it never actually made it to YouTube.

82
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:08.720
I'm like, well, that you gave me a warning and

83
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:12.839
then so then I'm like really frustrating. I'm like, so,

84
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:17.240
I guess there's no way to communicate with the YouTube listeners.

85
00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:19.839
There's just no way. So then I started looking around.

86
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:22.120
I'm like, well, okause, there's something I could do. Do

87
00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:24.480
I then go grab the Do I do? I try

88
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:28.079
to find the archived copy on sermonaudio, upload it as

89
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:31.160
a video, then download it, and then and then upload

90
00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:33.319
it to YouTube at least so that people know. So

91
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.600
I start looking around. So this is about now twelve, ten, twelve,

92
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:40.720
I don't know, twelve fifteen am. And then YouTube basically

93
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:45.319
contacts me and says, hey, would you like to bring

94
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:49.399
your podcast to YouTube? And I'm like, well, my podcast

95
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.480
is already on YouTube but my podcast hosting site. So

96
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:55.600
then YouTube is like, all you need to do is

97
00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:58.319
submit your RSS feed. I'm like, well, that's what I've

98
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:02.560
already done, but for some reason they're not allowing Spreaker.

99
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:05.480
I don't know. It made no sense. I'm like, well, okay,

100
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:07.519
what do I do? So then they sent me all

101
00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:10.319
these things, all these steps that I had to do, right,

102
00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:12.560
So I had to go in and the name of

103
00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:17.160
the podcast, submit the artwork, a description, and then I

104
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.720
have to submit an RSS feed. I'm like, well, I've

105
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:22.000
already submitted an RSS feed, but it won't allow the

106
00:06:22.040 --> 00:06:25.480
spreaker RSS feed. I'm like, why won't you allow the

107
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:29.000
spreaker RSS feed. This should already be done. Okay, what

108
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:31.480
do I do? I know what I'll do. I'll grab

109
00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:35.879
the RSS feed from sermon Audio Boom. So I grabbed

110
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:39.040
the RSS feed from Sermon Audio Boom. I submit it

111
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:44.079
and then it starts uploading one hundred episodes from sermon

112
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:47.639
Audio to YouTube and I'm like okay. And it turns

113
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:51.639
it into an actual podcast, so it's not seen as

114
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:54.360
like it's a part of the YouTube channel. But there's

115
00:06:54.399 --> 00:06:58.439
a tab now that says podcast. So it turns them

116
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:02.319
into videos. It's autumn transferring it into a video format.

117
00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:05.680
It's it's creating a thing called a podcast. So all

118
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:08.120
of this was happening, you know, going all the way

119
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:09.800
up to one in the morning. All of this was

120
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:13.160
going and I'm like, okay, this is good. Now, if

121
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:16.279
you'll right now, if you'll go to YouTube, just if

122
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:18.920
you'll go to YouTube right now, do a search for

123
00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:22.399
Theology Central. If you go to YouTube, do a search

124
00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:25.959
for theology Central. You'll now see a lot of these

125
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:29.800
quote unquote video files. It has the sermon Audio branding

126
00:07:29.879 --> 00:07:33.879
on it because that's coming from sermon Audio. And I'm like, okay,

127
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:40.160
this is great, but you'll notice something. There's two messages missing, right,

128
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:45.720
the two about the acts, the floating acts and more

129
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:49.439
acts talk. Those are missing. I don't know why they're missing.

130
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:52.439
It's like they were uploading and they get to the

131
00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:55.079
two most recent and they just stop. I'm like, well,

132
00:07:56.920 --> 00:07:59.519
how do I get this fix? Nobody has an answer, right,

133
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.560
nobody has an answer. So I'm like, okay, if this works,

134
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:07.240
then what's going to happen is every time I upload

135
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:12.439
a message to sermon audio, that will immediately show up

136
00:08:12.439 --> 00:08:15.439
on YouTube. I don't have to do anything. It's going

137
00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:18.519
to go just back like the way it was, except

138
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:21.839
it comes except coming from Spreaker. It will be coming

139
00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:25.000
from sermon Audio. Now there's a negative to that. The

140
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:29.759
negative is if it's coming from sermon audio, that completely

141
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:34.919
takes away from our podcast numbers and our podcast ranking. Right,

142
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:38.960
because our podcast comes from Spreaker, we're in the top

143
00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:42.360
five percent of all podcasts based off the numbers that

144
00:08:42.440 --> 00:08:45.720
come from Spriaker, and all the podcasting hosting sites. The

145
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:50.039
numbers from sermon Audio do not register at all to

146
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:53.879
our ranking in the podcasting world. The sermon audio numbers do.

147
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:58.039
If the sermon audio numbers added to our podcast ranking,

148
00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:00.279
we would be probably not in the top five percent.

149
00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:03.600
We'd probably be in the top three percent, two percent,

150
00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:06.240
maybe even up to the top one percent. But the

151
00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:09.679
sermon audio numbers are separate, so it's gonna have an

152
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:13.679
impact at least a little on our overall podcast ranking.

153
00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:18.320
But that's okay. It'll it may add the numbers from Sermonadio,

154
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.080
which will be interesting to see. I don't know how

155
00:09:21.080 --> 00:09:24.960
it's all going to work. So now what's supposed to

156
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:27.759
happen is when I do an episode and I upload

157
00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:30.799
it to Sermonaudio, it should show up on YouTube as

158
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:36.240
a video and as in the podcast section. Now that's

159
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:39.799
how it should work. Why the two new newest episodes

160
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:41.799
aren't there, I don't know. So I'm doing this to

161
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:43.919
try to find out if it's actually going to work.

162
00:09:44.039 --> 00:09:48.159
If it doesn't work, if it doesn't actually just automatically

163
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:51.399
show up, then all of this has been for nothing,

164
00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:53.600
and I'm just gonna delete everything and just move on

165
00:09:53.720 --> 00:09:56.440
with my life. If it shows up, then the problem

166
00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:00.000
is fixed. YouTube will still be the same YouTube channel,

167
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:02.840
just do a search for Theology Central, but now it

168
00:10:02.919 --> 00:10:06.279
will be the audio will show up as a video

169
00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:11.000
format in the video section. It will also show up

170
00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:14.720
as a playlist. It will also show up as a podcast.

171
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:19.320
All right, so that just now adds three different ways

172
00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:23.279
our content shows up. That's great. Oh but wait, there's more.

173
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:27.480
YouTube then asked, well, hey, do you want your podcast

174
00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:31.639
to be on YouTube music. I'm like, yeah, I've been

175
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:34.120
trying to get on YouTube music forever, as soon as

176
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:36.320
y'all went to podcasts. Well, all you need to do

177
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:40.879
is press this button. Okay, tap this you know, tap

178
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:45.240
this screen. Okay. Then I wait about fifteen Now, now

179
00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:47.000
it's like, you know, almost one o'clock in the morning,

180
00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:50.840
twelve thirty twelve forty five am. And then I'm like, okay,

181
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:53.960
oh wow, I'm on YouTube music. Okay, So now all

182
00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:56.759
of a sudden, all of my content's on YouTube music.

183
00:10:57.039 --> 00:10:59.720
All of my content is on YouTube It's on YouTube

184
00:10:59.720 --> 00:11:02.759
as a video, as a playlist, and as a podcast.

185
00:11:02.919 --> 00:11:06.240
It's on YouTube Music as a podcast. But guess what's

186
00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:11.919
missing on all of that. The two most recent episodes,

187
00:11:12.080 --> 00:11:14.840
and I don't know how to get the new episodes there.

188
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:17.879
So if there's if all it did was take my

189
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:20.679
old stuff and put it there, but it's not going

190
00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:23.440
to add any of the new stuff unless I manually

191
00:11:23.480 --> 00:11:26.360
go in and add the new stuff, well then we're

192
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:29.240
right back to the original problem. Then I would have

193
00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:33.039
to after I'm done with a broadcast, all right, spreaker

194
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:36.000
sends it out to all the podcasting apps. Check. I

195
00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:38.320
don't have to do anything there. Well, then I have

196
00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:41.720
to go to sermon Audio, find the archived version, upload

197
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:45.600
the video, download the video, then manually upload the video

198
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:49.720
to YouTube. And again I don't know YouTube's numbers are

199
00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:51.919
not worth all of that. But it seems like now

200
00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:58.279
they've created a section for audio podcasts. So this episode

201
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:02.399
right now is going to be everything hinges on this episode.

202
00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:05.639
So as soon as I'm done, here's what's going to happen. First,

203
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:07.919
It'll be uploaded to spreaker, and I'll go to all

204
00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:11.240
the podcasting apps check. I don't have to do much there,

205
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:14.159
just I got to type out the metadata. It'll be done.

206
00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:18.159
Soon as that's over, I download it from Spreaker. Then

207
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:22.440
I upload it to sermon Audio. Once it's uploaded to

208
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:27.519
sermon Audio, then that's where the waiting takes place. We

209
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:32.039
will wait and see if it actually automatically transfers over

210
00:12:32.120 --> 00:12:35.519
to YouTube. So here's what I would ask you to

211
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:40.399
do today. If you have YouTube Music, do a search

212
00:12:40.440 --> 00:12:44.200
for Theology Central. If you use YouTube Music, do a

213
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:47.440
search for Theology Central, follow us and see if a

214
00:12:47.480 --> 00:12:51.120
new episode shows up at any time. If you do

215
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:54.120
not use YouTube Music, then that's fine. You can download

216
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:57.399
the app. I think if you have a Google account

217
00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:00.480
then you can use the app for free. You don't

218
00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:03.600
actually have to, you know, subscribe to their premium service.

219
00:13:04.200 --> 00:13:06.440
You can use it as a podcasting app. But if

220
00:13:06.480 --> 00:13:09.720
you want to check YouTube music, we are already there.

221
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:12.480
The key is can we get new episodes there? We're

222
00:13:12.519 --> 00:13:15.679
about to find out. If you go to YouTube, do

223
00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:19.960
a search for Theology Central, find the Theology Central channel

224
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:26.200
and you should now see tabs for video playlists and podcast.

225
00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:30.759
You'll now see the Theology Central podcast and you'll see

226
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:35.200
the new branding. It now has the Sermon Audio brand

227
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:39.440
on it. All right, you will see that. What we're

228
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:41.639
going to do is after I get this uploaded to

229
00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:43.799
sermon Audio, is once again We're going to wait and

230
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:47.440
see if the new content's going to show up. If

231
00:13:47.480 --> 00:13:51.559
the new content shows up. If it does, then ladies

232
00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:55.399
and gentlemen, all of this is fixed. We don't have

233
00:13:55.480 --> 00:13:59.840
to worry about anything anymore. I just broadcast and automatically

234
00:13:59.840 --> 00:14:02.559
the stuff will show up on YouTube as a video,

235
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:06.840
in a playlist and as a podcast, and it will

236
00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:11.159
show up on YouTube Music, and we've resolved everything. If

237
00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:16.399
it doesn't work, then most likely what's going to happen

238
00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:20.679
is the entire YouTube channel will be deleted and we

239
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:23.480
will just be done with that platform because I don't

240
00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:27.000
know how much extra work and time I'm going to

241
00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:31.480
commit to trying to get it stuff on YouTube. If

242
00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:34.960
in the end those numbers are I mean they peal

243
00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:37.879
and significance. I mean we talked about it the other day.

244
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:42.200
In fact, I can just give you up to the

245
00:14:42.240 --> 00:14:45.159
minute update right now. I can tell you just at

246
00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:52.080
this very moment where most of our content is being

247
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:55.240
listened to today, give me one second here, right, I'm going

248
00:14:55.320 --> 00:14:58.120
to go to my podcast. I can give you up

249
00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:04.600
to this second details here. I'm gonna go to Theology Central,

250
00:15:04.840 --> 00:15:08.519
all right. That is a very loud truck out behind me.

251
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:12.000
All right, I'm going to go to statistics. Here we are,

252
00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:16.320
I'm going to go to sources, all right, the number

253
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:20.440
one place today. All right, today's here's what we have

254
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:24.960
for today. Apple podcast eight hundred and forty four downloads

255
00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:32.080
today October seventeenth has occurred on Apple Podcasts Serious XM

256
00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:36.960
Today Thursday, October seventeenth, seven hundred and twenty nine downloads,

257
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:42.960
Chrome Just Chrome four hundred and twenty eight, Spreaker three

258
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:47.679
hundred and fifty nine, Pandora one hundred and nineteen, Pocket

259
00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:52.000
Casts one hundred and six, Spotify ninety three, Podbean sixty two,

260
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:56.360
Amazon Music thirty, podcast Attic twenty nine, and I could

261
00:15:56.399 --> 00:16:01.879
go down a SERIOUSXM dot Com another ten and so

262
00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:07.240
cast Box eleven, I vos A twenty seven. Some of

263
00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:10.919
these I don't even know where somebody Android Browser one

264
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:15.200
hundred and six, VLC one hundred and forty four, Alexa

265
00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:17.519
one hundred and forty nine. I could go through all

266
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:20.600
of these numbers. I think for today we've had I

267
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:25.120
think three thousand, four hundred and nineteen just for today

268
00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:30.080
so far. All right, So that that's that. Does YouTube

269
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:32.559
even show up there? No, YouTube does not show up

270
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:40.120
in the top one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen,

271
00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:44.120
nineteen twenty, and the top twenty. YouTube doesn't even register.

272
00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:49.120
It's not even it's not even a thing, right, so

273
00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:53.840
you see why why I'm somewhat hesitant to dedicate hours

274
00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:56.399
of work to make it work. But if we if

275
00:16:56.399 --> 00:17:01.080
this works, we will know, hopefully within an hour, if

276
00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:02.519
it's going to work. So if you want to be

277
00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:06.880
a part of this, if you have YouTube music, look

278
00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:09.559
for Theology Central. I don't think it shows up as

279
00:17:09.559 --> 00:17:11.920
a podcast right now. It just shows up as episodes.

280
00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:14.359
But then if you click the little three dots, it

281
00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:16.319
will say go to podcasts, and then you can go

282
00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:19.319
to the podcast and then you can follow it and

283
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:21.400
you can see and if you have your notifications on,

284
00:17:21.519 --> 00:17:24.599
hopefully you'll actually get a notification when this episode drops.

285
00:17:24.599 --> 00:17:27.680
Hopefully if you go to YouTube itself, do a search

286
00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:31.720
for Theology Central and then just wait and see if

287
00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:35.319
a new episode drops in the next hopefully thirty minutes

288
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:38.039
to an hour, and if it does, all the problems

289
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:42.880
are solved. If it doesn't, well YouTube is probably going

290
00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:46.119
bye bye. But I'm not going to make any rash decision.

291
00:17:46.599 --> 00:17:48.359
I'm gonna give it twenty four I'm gonna give it

292
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:51.599
between twenty four and forty eight hours, just to see

293
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:54.640
if it's all going to work, and then if it doesn't,

294
00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:57.720
it doesn't. But I wanted to give everyone an update

295
00:17:58.079 --> 00:18:01.240
that for the last twelve hours, that's all I've been

296
00:18:01.680 --> 00:18:05.200
focused on is trying to get this problem fixed. It

297
00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:09.559
is bizarre. This all happened at midnight, but here we

298
00:18:09.599 --> 00:18:14.160
are now twelve nineteen pm and I'm still dealing with this.

299
00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:15.680
I want to be done with it. I want to

300
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:21.319
be so done with this because that's a lot of time, energy, focus, work,

301
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:27.559
you know. And again, look at the numbers. YouTube doesn't

302
00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:32.640
even show up. It doesn't even register. And I don't

303
00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:35.759
get frustrated with that. YouTube is not I mean, people

304
00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:38.079
go to YouTube, they're looking for videos, they're not looking

305
00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:41.400
for audio. But clearly YouTube now is moving into the

306
00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:45.240
world of podcasting. So now under our YouTube channel it

307
00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:49.720
literally says podcast. There's literally a podcast tab now, So

308
00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:54.359
they're moving into the audio world. But YouTube just doesn't.

309
00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:57.079
And I guess they're going to use RSS feed. I

310
00:18:57.079 --> 00:18:59.319
don't know why they won't use our spreaker RSS feed.

311
00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:01.759
It's really broken right now the way this is all

312
00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:04.640
working out, but we're going to try to get there.

313
00:19:05.119 --> 00:19:08.440
They are transitioning and we're going to transition with them

314
00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:12.279
until we can hopefully get it solved resolved that all

315
00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:16.240
of our content will be on YouTube and YouTube music

316
00:19:17.400 --> 00:19:20.480
as well as every other platform on Earth. That's always

317
00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:24.480
my joke. We're on every platform on Earth. I would

318
00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:27.160
hate to no longer be on YouTube or not on

319
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:30.200
YouTube music. But if we can resolve that today, we're

320
00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:33.000
going to. So if you want to watch it all unfold,

321
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:40.319
YouTube Music Theology Central, YouTube Theology Central, and then we'll

322
00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:43.720
see what happens. Or of course, if you want to

323
00:19:43.720 --> 00:19:46.839
make it easy, you can just subscribe to us and

324
00:19:46.880 --> 00:19:50.279
follow us on any podcasting app on Earth, or Sermon's

325
00:19:50.319 --> 00:19:53.440
two point oh app or the Church one App. I

326
00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:55.400
still tell everyone to go to the Church one app.

327
00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:58.799
Why because when the Church one app, you get actual

328
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:01.839
notifications when I help load something, and you get notifications

329
00:20:01.880 --> 00:20:04.359
when I go live and you can listen to me live,

330
00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:09.039
and everything is broken down into series, where on the

331
00:20:09.039 --> 00:20:11.559
podcasting apps things are not broken down into series, are

332
00:20:11.559 --> 00:20:16.000
they No, it's just a long list in chronological order, like,

333
00:20:16.119 --> 00:20:18.960
that's hard to find anything on at least Church one.

334
00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:21.400
Everything is so Church one still proves to be the

335
00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:26.079
superior app for us. It really does. No podcasting app.

336
00:20:27.519 --> 00:20:30.559
Podcasting apps you don't get to hear me live. Podcasting apps.

337
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:34.039
You do get notifications when new episodes are uploaded, but

338
00:20:34.359 --> 00:20:37.000
then you're like, you'll see that one, Well, where's the

339
00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:40.079
next one? Well you have to scroll down. Well, this

340
00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:43.319
is a part of his series on say proverbs. Well

341
00:20:43.359 --> 00:20:46.359
when was the last message? You got to scroll down, Well,

342
00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:50.839
where's the other message. It's that's maddening trying to be

343
00:20:50.839 --> 00:20:53.200
able to keep the Church One app. Everything is broken

344
00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:57.000
down into series. It's so much simpler and easier. So

345
00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:00.839
we I'm very appreciative that Cermonaudio allows us to be

346
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:03.480
on their platform. They don't have to allow us. They

347
00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:06.559
could remove us at anytime, So we are grateful because

348
00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:12.759
I think from a listener experience, it's the superior platform

349
00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:16.640
from a listener experience. But a lot of people love YouTube,

350
00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:20.759
so if I can get the stuff there without having

351
00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:23.680
to you know, well, a lot of people love YouTube.

352
00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:26.039
A lot of people obviously don't love YouTube as far

353
00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:31.119
as listening to this podcast because we don't even register anywhere,

354
00:21:31.119 --> 00:21:35.119
Like I mean, that's that's sad. That's sad that we're

355
00:21:35.119 --> 00:21:38.240
not even anywhere on I don't know, that's just that's sad.

356
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:41.559
But hopefully now all of I'm going to start seeing

357
00:21:41.599 --> 00:21:45.599
the numbers for Sermonadio go up, and it's going to

358
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:48.480
be the YouTube people now pulling stuff from the RSS

359
00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:52.559
feed from Sermonadio. But we're gonna find out so YouTube

360
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:57.960
music Theology Central, YouTube, look for Theology Central. And here's

361
00:21:58.000 --> 00:22:01.240
what we're going to be waiting for. I'm gonna when

362
00:22:01.279 --> 00:22:04.000
you get that when you see this on sermon Audio,

363
00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:07.039
when you see this episode show up on Sermonadio and

364
00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:11.880
the church one app Once you see that, that's when

365
00:22:12.039 --> 00:22:14.839
the top the clock starts ticking. When does it show

366
00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:19.720
up on YouTube? And if it never shows up, well,

367
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:25.039
then we have not fixed this problem. Let's hope it does.

368
00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:28.480
All right, that's what's happening. I wanted to give you

369
00:22:28.519 --> 00:22:31.599
some kind of insight. I would much look if it

370
00:22:31.680 --> 00:22:34.240
was up to me, I would prefer to be doing

371
00:22:34.279 --> 00:22:36.720
something else. I just got a notification about a new

372
00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:42.720
devotional Bible. It's like the Oswald Chambers devotional Bible that's

373
00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:47.839
being released by Hallman Publishers. Now, I think Oswald Chambers

374
00:22:47.880 --> 00:22:51.480
Devotion my atmosphereus Hias is just a philological train rag.

375
00:22:51.839 --> 00:22:54.759
But I you know, it'd be interesting. I'm going to

376
00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:56.599
see how much the Bible is. It would be interesting

377
00:22:56.599 --> 00:23:00.720
to see how it integrates the devotional to the Bible.

378
00:23:01.039 --> 00:23:03.440
But yeah, I would I wanted to talk about that.

379
00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:07.319
That's what I wanted to talk about, or just do

380
00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:09.000
some of the other things we need to work on.

381
00:23:09.119 --> 00:23:11.680
But instead I had to do this because that's what

382
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:15.039
I've been working on. That's see, while you were asleep,

383
00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:21.839
this is what I was doing. All right. Now I'm

384
00:23:21.880 --> 00:23:24.000
done doing it. I'm done dealing with it, all right.

385
00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:27.519
So let's see what happens. So YouTube music. Look for

386
00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:32.119
Theology Central on YouTube. Look for Theology Central and see

387
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:35.880
when this episode actually shows up. And if it doesn't.

388
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:42.359
If it does, then we can celebrate, all right, we

389
00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:45.680
can do I pull out col In the Gang. Okay, Oh,

390
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:49.119
we're not supposed to talk about music because we're Christians, right,

391
00:23:49.319 --> 00:23:54.279
you can. You can grab a coke and and and yeah,

392
00:23:54.480 --> 00:23:57.359
there we go. We'll do something to celebrate. I don't

393
00:23:57.400 --> 00:24:00.440
know what but I'm hoping for a celebration. We will

394
00:24:00.440 --> 00:24:03.559
find out here shortly. Thanks for listening. I'll give you

395
00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:06.400
an update as we get them. I'm hoping I don't

396
00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:08.440
have to ever do another update on this subject again,

397
00:24:08.839 --> 00:24:11.480
because the way it should work, it's out of sight,

398
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:14.519
out of mind. I just broadcast and the content just

399
00:24:14.559 --> 00:24:18.440
shows up there and if it works that way, great,

400
00:24:19.039 --> 00:24:25.599
We'll find out, hopefully within the next hour. Thanks for listening.

401
00:24:28.079 --> 00:24:28.640
God bless
