    About 10 years ago Matt (Lost Dutchman) had an idea that he wanted to share numismatic knowledge and promote the hobby and he created The Coin Show Podcast.

    Fast forward to today and podcasters and YouTubers are everywhere.

    As this medium becomes more user friendly more and more people are beginning to create and share their own content on various platforms and social media.

    Have any of you ever considered sharing your knowledge in this way?

    Outside of my 14,000+ posts on CT...no, I have not. Plus, in all fairness...I would estimate that at most 10% of my posts have actually been of any value to those who have read them.

    Speaking of Matt, I haven't seen him around for a bit. How has he been?

    I've done 3 PowerPoint presentations at my local coin club. Does that count? The last one was on a Zoom meeting last month. I recently submitted an article for publication which was accepted. It should be out in the June edition of TNA News.
    As Doug always says "knowledge,share it".

    Used to make youtube videos, I stopped after editing became a pain as well as a decline in views and (((youtube drama))). Lately I have considered reopening as a more educational type channel than the "today's LCS pickups" type of videos. Other than that my IG is on the eve of hittin 2,000 followers.

    Doug, you STILL owe me several for all of the times I've pointed out your age. :D

    I will pass your regards along.

    I have considered a podcast before. I'm sitting here typing this staring at a usb mic that I bought for just that purpose. I think I'll kick that idea into high gear here shortly. I also see a lot of opportunity to share all kinds of knoweledge with my local coin club. I am pretty savvy when it comes to tech and I've seen this pandemic cripple our ability to meet or socialize with the people who we look forward to seeing once a month. I think I need to round up all us tech nerds and bring the group into a place where we can all still meet if we choose no matter the circumstances. The younger generation can help the older generation with this just as they have helped us with their knoweledge of collecting.
    I do want to give a big shout out to you and Matt for the endless hours of entertainment on my way to work! Thanks boys!

    Well geeez Mike, ya been doing it for 20 years. I'm finally starting to get kinda used to you doing that. That doesn't mean I've forgot though - I'm still gonna gectha - for each and every one :D

    Now about your original question - not so much anymore - too much dang work ! For the last decade or so most of my time is spent trying to get my students to do that stuff - have had some success with that ;)

    I used to run a Numismatic Instagram page, the focus was exhibiting coins to a non numismatic audience, I had about 300 followers, been debating on starting it up again. But not sure.

    Maybe Peter and Doug will obtain a Zoom commercial account ( Peter can advertise and Doug can do his "show") and we can a big meeting , even if there is another pandemic. CoinTalk Talks!!
