0:00.0 | Hey everyone, Robert M. Lam here, creator of Seven Lam to give some updates on upcoming projects. |
0:07.8 | We are posting this message to all our feeds so people can get a better understanding of where |
0:12.7 | we're at as a company and what's going on behind the scenes. Now the stuff we talk about here |
0:18.5 | won't be anything new to people who follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, |
0:22.9 | but we realize that we needed to reach our entire audience. Although real quick, if you aren't |
0:28.0 | already, follow us on all those platforms at Seven Lam podcasts. If you know Seven Lam, |
0:33.2 | you'll know that we just became a true business a year ago, but we've been releasing podcasts since |
0:38.7 | 2017. It took us that long to finally make enough money that I could quit my day job and do this |
0:45.2 | full-time. Last year was my first year just working on podcasts. Before that, I worked multiple |

1:19.3 | not an exaggeration. I worked every single day Monday through Sunday, usually 8 a.m. till about midnight, |
1:26.0 | sometimes later. Usually it was about five hours a day at the day job, sometimes eight, |
1:30.6 | and then the rest went towards podcasting. The only breaks being travel time two and from work, |
1:35.6 | or when I ate breakfast, lunch or dinner, and sometimes an afternoon power nap. I probably |
1:40.6 | realistically only took about 60 days off in those five years. It was rough, but I was determined |
1:46.8 | and now I'm happy to say that I'm full-time. But that being said, I'm the only one who is. Other |
1:52.5 | people who are part of this business like Jack Austin, voice of a ton of characters, |
1:56.9 | has been helping me along the way, but Jack works a full-time job. So does Amber Simpson, |
