An irregular but brief aside

Audio (MP3): 20200501 - An irregular but brief aside

logo tcrbang explosion 1024

I’m going to take an irregular but brief aside. I think I’ve done this one or maybe two whole other times since starting the podcast back in August of 2016.

A little background on me. I stopped drinking and using drugs in 1992 when I was 19. I started both too early. I started drinking again in 2002 and then stopped again in 2012. The last five years of alcoholic drinking were the worst years of my life.

tcr! diaries podcast survey

Audio (MP3): 20180824 - Podcast Survey

tcr diaries podcast survey

I’m interrupting the regularly scheduled episodes to announce a listener survey created by yours truly. It’s informal and there won’t be a test later. And I love your feedback!

It’s also quick and should take you less than 30 seconds.

Go now: tcrbang.com/form/podcast_survey/

On with the show.

diaries podcast: 1171 episode listens this month

tcr! · Apr 26, 2018 at 2:56 pm

Podcast listens 1171

I started doing my podcast last August and this month I’ve had the most episode listens ever. Pretty exciting! The total includes people who have listened to an episode more than once because many people do.

There was a dip in Dec and Jan, too, because holidays and I didn’t post anything new.

I think I have around 160 subscribers but those are harder to count than you’d think. People switching podcast players, people moving in and out of cell networks, apps fetching the episodes for all their users. Regardless though, my podcast is growing.

Another fun stat for this month, people listening to the podcast now outweigh the people visiting my actual website. I never saw that happening. 😊

Anyways, you can listen in a variety if you aren’t already: tcr! diaries – podcast.

New tcr! feature: Forums

tcr! · Apr 12, 2017 at 11:10 am

The second piece of web software I wrote was a BBS and/or Forum. I moved the site away from all of that when blogs became popular but they’ve always had a special place in my heart. The now defunct Written Ignition had some of my most favorite online conversations written by some of my most favorite online friends.

With that said, I’ve added Forums to tcrbang.com. The codebase for them is all new so they’ll probably break now and again but overall they’re ready for use. Still lots more work to be done (uploading files, etc.) but I’m happy to have them back.

A permanent link can be found in the main menu along with the footer down below.

There’s two forums at the moment:

  • Public House – open to the world but ya gotta sign in to post
  • Members Only – you gotta be a member to see what’s here

Blog articles and comments that would be better as a forum topic will be moved over there at some point.

tcr shopping cart

So this is a thing now… I built a website and shopping cart for people to buy my non-sensical photos and whatnots. I don’t like doing promotional stuff but people ask about me selling stuff so there ya go. 😉

So people keep telling me I should sell my photos, etc. I never take them seriously…but I have been building this all weekend. Because that’s what you do when you’re me.

Here’s the initial site — no shopping just yet, you’ll spoil your dinner.

Shopping cart coming soon

That’s just an example product, too.

OR IS IT?? 😊

I still haven’t found my groove on tcrbang.com.

I don’t like the layout. And then I can’t get my head-in-the-game as far as posting and commenting goes.
