This week, we talk about my biggest nightmare:
My Google AdSense Account Disabled.
OK, it’s not my biggest nightmare, but having your AdSense account disabled is not the most fun thing you can imagine. We also discuss Fiverr.com as a micro-outsourcing platform, progress on my 2012 goals and some cool Superbowl related stuff.
I also ask for feedback about the “stinger” between show segments. Would love to hear your thoughts in
Special thanks to “The Terminator” for kicking off the show.

My Reader: Cool Article About Flurry

Episode 019 Transcript
Hey, it’s really great to be back here, as always. I’m loving this weekly podcast action. We’ve got another week down in the books, episode 19 is here, it’s on your iPod one week after episode 18. I’m totally stoked about that.
To Stinger or Not to Stinger
We’re looking at introducing a new version of the theme song. I went and talked to Geoff Smith about an unplugged version of the theme song and I’m kind of playing around with that. It’s just kind of a fun thing to mix things up a bit.
I’ve been getting a lot of feedback about the theme song recently. The feedback that I usually get is, “Wow, that theme song is so awesome,” because it was composed by Geoff Smith and he is totally amazing and most people seem to like it – at least the people that talk to me about it seem to really like the theme song.
I got one piece of feedback regarding how I was using the stinger. Usually between each segment of the episode I play this stinger to separate the topics. And I do that as a break between topics. I got some feedback from one guy who said, “I don’t know what you think you’re doing, but you play that thing way too much and I’m tired of hearing that. Don’t take it the wrong way, but I don’t like it.”
I love that kind of feedback, I think it was great. You can see that feedback on the show notes for show 18 at MasonWorld.com/episode18. It’s really positive constructive feedback, no big deal at all.
But, I feel like I need something between segments inside the show to kind of give the listeners a clue that we’re changing topics. You kind of need that audio clue in an audio podcast. A lot of people use sounds like a whoosh or something like that between each segment. I thought maybe I might give something like this a try, kind of short instrumental stinger. [plays] So we’ll give that a try for this part of the show and see what everybody thinks.
I’d love your feedback on this. Do you like hearing this kind of over the top thing that reminds you what the show is all about? Or do you like the little short stinger? Let me know and give me some feedback, I’d really like that. I appreciate the feedback, it’s very helpful.
The other thing that I promised in the last episode was that we’d talk a little bit more about this niche site that I built. I got some great feedback also on episode 18 from a guy who just felt like it really turned on some light switches for him as he was listening to that episode. I’m going to try and get him on the podcast, but that was really great.
I love that kind of feedback where the guy says, “I had so many ideas and so many questions while I was driving, I couldn’t even remember them all because I couldn’t write them down.” I just love that, that’s what the podcast is all about, that’s what’s get me excited about it is getting people’s light bulbs turned on about internet marketing.
