Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well. I made a smaller video on my social medias today trying to explain just briefly about what my new subscription format will be all about. It's kind of hard to do it on a video, especially when I try to make one video for all platforms and like right now Instagram, the reels can only be three minutes or under. So I wanted to just get on, make a quick episode about the subscription feature that I've started. So, as most of you know on social media, I just have to be, anyone, especially a creator, has to be very cognizant of what they're saying, the information. It can't be too graphic in nature. That's why a lot of times when I'm saying certain words in the description of the video, I'm like using different signs instead of spelling it all out in letters. I'll break it up. You can still see what I'm trying to say, but without typing it, I won't get dinged. And so it's like reasons like that. It's very hard for me to be as open. as I want to be. I have to watch my words a lot. I've noticed, and a huge reason for this, me making a subscription format for some of my episodes. The reason, a top reason, there have been numerous teens talking like kind of, I would say, 14 and up and they've had legitimate questions about a video or they've told me they've talked they've seen something heard something and it just had them questioning had them doubting so that made me realize that okay there are young ones who are trying to make up their mind or trying to make sense of these feelings they have. Because when you have these feelings and you're in that cult, the Jehovah's Witnesses cult, it's hard to have doubts. You question yourself. It's how they program you. You think something is wrong with you, but in reality, you're doing what you should be doing. Free thinking, critical thinking. And so, I was like, since I have these young ones visiting too, I really, really have to watch what I say, especially when it comes to someone deciding what they want in life. I'm not going to flat out tell a person all I can do is give you my reasons, show you facts, documents as to why I feel the way I do. It's up to you what you feel. I don't want to just spend something totally negative when I have these PIMO teens that listen to me and watch my videos as well so that being said I'm like it's kind of hard because people like a week and a half ago or so I posted like it was a four videos series I did about three people that I was in the same congregation but they were doing some like diddy party stuff on their own and so I have so many questions in the private message, but it's like, I would rather just be able to talk freely and tell you what I want to say and like not sugarcoat anything because, you know, again, even with the adults, I have those that have already left their XJWs, but then I have some that are PIMO. Um, and they may be undecided. They may, It may be a reason they can't just directly leave. Everyone has their own reason for when we were in that PMO stage. Even with the adults, I want to be fully transparent, give you my experiences, my ideas, my opinions, so that you can make an informed decision or that you can know that I'm in the right community. I'll be seen and heard here. Like these are the people I want to rock with. And so I feel by me having a subscription type episodes that I can choose because I'll still do the regular podcast. Like that's not going anywhere because I already have a good base that's starting. You know, not only in America, but Canada, the Netherlands. UK, Italy. So the podcast episodes that I've already started, those won't be going anywhere. And, you know, I still want a presence with it. The subscription or the premium plus is where I won't censor myself. I won't hold anything back. I'm just going to be talking like I say in the description. on the subscription page I'm just going to be talking real and raw straight no chaser like that's what I want to offer with it and again it's like when I say subscription I'm not it's not something for me to try to gouge or get rich but it's just something to help me especially on the technical side because with the podcast and all the social media the podcast platform I use to send it to like 25 other directories or podcast platforms it's all a cost associated with it and the more I grow the more cost I have to spend to support it and so yeah I put a monthly subscription for the premium plus episodes at$7 a month and That will give you just me, unfiltered, unafraid, and just tell you straight-up stories that I know that I've been in. Also, what I want to do, too, with the premium episodes is I want to have individuals, if they want to, email me a question or email me a statement. And so... Part of that premium episode, it might be me retelling a story. Another part of that episode will be me reading questions. And you can put on there, when you email me, you can put on there, if you want to stay anonymous or if you want me to say a first name, if you want me to say your first initial, totally up to you. But I'm going to be reading questions that I get and answering them all, no matter what it is. on that premium episode format. So like I said,$7 a month supports me on the back end with the technical, especially as I keep growing on social media and the platform. I'm realizing that to do all that, have the infrastructure to do that technically, is cost involved with it. And I want to do it right so that I can I always have something to support all of you all with. My ex-JW and my Pimo friends, like, making this community for us. So, that is why I decided to make a$7 a month subscription premium plus episode for my podcast. And, yeah. You'll just get the real deal. I'll speak my truth openly, more openly than I can on my social media and my normal podcast. And I'm going to mark all the premium episodes that I make. I'm going to check that box that say explicit content because I just want to be able to talk and not... I just don't want to dilute the things I wanted to say. And the answers... that I'll be giving you all. Like, yeah, I don't want to dilute it. I just want it to be me, my personality, fully me, giving you my answers, my advice, whatever you have to ask. So, yeah, I wanted to make this quick episode to further explain what the Premium Plus episodes of my podcast will have. I'm excited about it because, like, I get messages every day on every social media platform and people emailing me and just thanking me for having the courage to speak up first, but also to provide a safe place where we all feel comfortable. No one's judging us. We may be ex-Jehovah's Witnesses, but we all have different paths that we've taken. And in our community, we respect everyone. I might not see a particular topic eye to eye, but I listen to you just like you listen to me. And we get along, no judgment. And that's the kind of community I want. That's the kind of community I'll continue to build. And I'm already lining up people to interview. And when I do interviews, It'll have to be on the premium because, like me, I want them to be open and free and honest and feel like they can just speak their truth without having to worry about, oh, I can't say that, oh, I can't say this. So I'm already lining up interviews to interview different people that are either PMO or ex-JWs. I want to put them on the premium plus subscription. platform on my podcast. So a lot of big things happening. Email me. I like to hear your comments or your questions. It's xjdub1 at gmail, so e-x-j-d-u-b, the number one, at gmail.com.
