Listen now | Starting a podcast to share your stories with your extended family — privately. You'll engage your family in the stories that matter without the performative distortions of social media.
By the way, fellow Projectkin, since Substack recently added Restacks as a toggle with comments, a quick tip. A bunch of the discussion to this "Private Podcasting" post is in our member chat we started during the program. I think that worked pretty well. What do YOU think?
The ah-ha I got from this is separating the archiving function from the communication function, and being deliberate with each. Good tips on tech choices for each too!
Oh... here's an interesting idea triggered in a conversation with @Ollie - if Only i. Once you get this "private podcast" set up, what you're really doing is creating a private newsletter publishing channel with your grown siblings, cousins, and extended family. You can use that for anything.
I'm now thinking about using it with a nifty new timeline of events in my family history (created based on insight from @Robin Stewart using the KnightLab JS tool.) The idea is to create tiny little posts for my cousins about "this day in history" for our shared ancestors. 2024 is the bicentennial of the Marquis de Lafayette's return to the United Stats 50 years after its founding. Where the tour went and our ancestors' possible connections is fun all by itself, eh? 🤔
