Hi there everyone. It is your host and star of the podcast, Star Jackson. Um, I am hi. How have you guys been? I I know it's been a long, a pretty long minute since we we uh re-debuted in like August, pretty much. Um let's let's have like a little chat, a little talk, a little a little quick little powwow of where I've been, um where why I was gone for so long, and where we are going to be. So without further ado, let's go ahead and get into the Dweeb City. I I'm still I'm still learning how to I'm still trying to figure out like a good a good a good saying and then good slogan for us. So sorry if it's like really awkward. So lately um I've been in constant um um uh disarray with my brain and wanting to do things a certain way and wanting to do things um the right way and wanting to have things to be not perfect, but just to have organization. So I've just been like in my own head a lot, and um every time I I would want to reach out to um um to guest to do the podcast, or anytime I would have inspiration to talk um or to write the scripts about what I talk about, um, I would just I would just like freeze and I would end up new doing nothing at all because I would just like I could do this, I could do that, and and I would just stop. Um Lately I've just I've just come to realize that it's okay to not have a pl like to have a plan, but to not to be okay with the unknown and not uh think about the what-ifs and the the spiraling deep depression of of if I do bad, this will happen, this will happen, this will happen. So that's what's been holding me back a lot from recording and from um just you know just expressing myself and sharing and and wanting to have fun and and making content because it's truly what I truly love to do. So um I that's where I have been the last I haven't posted since August, I think. So it's been six months now, which is insane because it feels like it was only it's only been like a couple months. So sorry. I am very congested. Um I caught um I caught like a a small little cold, um, but I caught it just in time. So um I'm still like congested from almost getting the cold like fully, but I stopped it. I have I felt my my throat getting a little bit scratchy, and I was like, oh, it's time to to take, you know, um just FYI. If you ever get a cold and um you you want to stop it in its tracks, always get the liquid medicine. Like the liquid dayquil is your lifesaver. I swear. It will it will change change your world because it'll stop it as soon as you start drinking it. As soon as you get that little tickle in your throat. Like the first step is acceptance when you're getting sick. Like the first step is acceptance, not denial, because we want to get it out of our system as soon as possible. Because I used to be in denial, like, like, oh, I'm not getting sick, I'm I'm just fine, and then I get sick and then I get fully sick when and when you should know when you're getting sick or feel like you're getting sick and you stop it before it gets fully bad. So um now I'm learning to see the sides and yeah. So yeah. Um but all that being said, guys, um I was lately and I posted this on Twitter too, uh, recently. Um by the at the time of this video, maybe it was like uh a couple days ago, or no, actually today. What the heck? I I am not getting used to the my sense of time right now because um I work overnights um right now, um, and I do a day job as well, and I voice act and I do content creating. So all the days just bleed in together. But um I I realized like um now I was like in fear of of wanting success. And I don't know, it's like uh but at the same time I want the success. I I I crave it. I'm I'm hungry for it. But then when I I go for it and it's working and I'm progressing, I get nervous and I I kind of self-sabotage myself sometimes. Even with like um even with like um losing weight, uh I've always had I've been trying to lose weight for the past decade, and um I've noticed whenever I would be on track with it, um, and I would start losing weight, I would get a little bit scared and nervous, and then I'll start eating bad, and I would just like gain the weight back or I'll stunt what I was doing, and then I'll have to start all over because I was afraid of losing weight, but that's the main goal that I wanted, and I want it so bad, but then when I'm almost there, like I don't know. It's just like something weird with the brain. I looked it up, it was just like um um, it's very normal, apparently. It's like self-sabotage because your brain is like um scared of the non-known and scared of achieving um the thing that you want, um, sometimes because you don't know what's gonna be next. What kind of um what what are you what are you what goals are you gonna do after you reach that goal? Will you have any other goals? And I really had to sit down and think of myself and like be like, why do I think like this? Why am I like this? And I definitely was like, Yeah, I gotta go to therapy. But besides that, um, I was like, you know, why not just try, even though like with other things I try, like with voice acting, I I give it my all. I try like fully and try my hardest with that. And you know, even when I'm nervous, like push through, but like stuff like other than that, like weight loss and um, you know, doing the podcast and content creating, I feel like I really stun my growth with that. So I really had to sit down with myself and be like, you know what? It is okay to fail, it is okay to have bluffs, it is okay to like not have everything perfect into a T and and you know, just trial and error because if why not, you know? Like, why why not just try and see where things go and do what you want and do what you love rather than stay stuck and be scared of the unknown. So, um, all that being said, guys, we are back. We are back in action and we are back better than ever. Like, and even though like we were kind of like just starting still, just starting, but we we are fully started now. So expect episodes every week. Um, at least from for now, if anything changes, I will um update the um I will update you guys if uh anything changes, but expect a new episode every week. I'm going to post Mondays um of uh of interviews, of just uh solo episodes with just me yapping, of us talking about hot topics going on, or um, or are like of no topics that I want to talk about or I wanna talk about and hash on, like nerdy stuff, manga, anime, sub versus dub. I definitely want to talk about that um eventually in fewer future episodes because I got still lots to say, like representation in the industry, um, and all that good stuff. And um, I am so excited to take you guys along with the ride. Um, I feel like um re brand new, reborn from the ashes, as they say, as like a phoenix. Um, and I'm so excited to share with you guys um other creators' journeys and really tap into what makes and creates a good story while also being nerdy, having fun, um, really like de having deep conversations and and just having just having a good time in the city, you know? I'm still trying to think of the the new slogan. So yeah, guys. Um I just wanted to give you guys that little update and um and a little like life uh I guess life a little update uh kinda not really.
