Update from an easy chair in a snow storm in Northern Michigan.
Simplifying things that have become a personal pain the ass has been a good thing over the last few months.
- I’ve cut down the podcasting hobby to this show (Mike Dell’s World), Podcast Insider and Traverse City Weather. Podcast Help Desk will remain online and I *may* add episodes once in a while.
- I’ve cut down obligations in Ham Radio. No longer am I the District EC for the 7th district of Michigan.
- We cut the cable several months ago and went back to an Antenna for TV.
- Simplifying my diet.
- Other ways to just keep things as simple as possible.

Podcast Crossroads
Today I’ve decided I’m closing down most of my podcasts. I’ve realized that podcasting is a hobby and as such, shouldn’t seem like work. I have tried to keep up on several shows and I feel guilty for not publishing episodes.
Traverse City Podcast, Fast Food History are done. Podcast Help Desk is not “done” but I’m leaving it up to the listeners if they want me to keep it around or not. Traverse City Weather (alexa skill) will go weekly. Mike Dell’s World will continue and of course Podcast Insider (the one I do for work) will continue.
Stay tuned here at MikeDell.com for my podcasting hobby
