Cleared out my phone storage so I had 100% of space free for content downloads.
Downloaded entire library of every high-signal Bitcoin podcast I could find (did my best to really find good small ones too, outside of the main ones everyone already knows)
Bug @MerryOscar to implement 3x speed (great success!) 👇
LOTS of 3-4 hour night walks, plugging away at those download lists, in whatever city I was living at the time. I'm a bit of a nomad so I moved several times over the course of the 4-year building period (I can now navigate Petone New Zealand, Corte Madera CA, Austin TX, and Cancun Mexico with my eyes closed lol. Literally walked every single inch of street space in those cities while grinding pods at 3x speed)
For the actual tracking of the content, I kept an ongoing notepad on my phone of every finalist I felt would be a good addition to the collection, and a few notes about where I thought it would best fit in the ordering. (I really put effort into each section beginning with the most beginner-friendly content, and ending with the more advanced stuff. I kept track of all of that.)
Most important rule of all...FOLLOW EVERY THREAD. Sometimes I'd be super close to finishing all the videos of a specific YouTube channel for example, and I'd see a new one pop up in the "Recommended" that looked good. I would ALWAYS allow myself to open up that tangent, to begin on immediately after the current one I was working on.
This is a big reason why it took so many years, and became so large. I refused to keep a single stone unturned while curating it.
