  • 51. What happens when your hobby goes viral—and your life doesn’t fit the algorithm?
    Oct 6 2025

    Send us a text

    We trace how a quiet lake ritual turned into a TikTok live with tens of thousands of drop-ins, then wrestle with what to do when the fish leave and the algorithm wants more. Along the way we argue about clothes, leftovers, phone privacy, and the cost of dinner.

    • going from passive scrolling to consistent creation
    • two podcasts, time costs, and burnout risk
    • catfish feeding lives, spikes to 26k viewers, retention
    • mixing hobbies with the podcast brand on one account
    • TikTok algorithm timing and late-night peaks
    • are phones listening and how suggestions shape behavior
    • fallback content plans when the lake season ends
    • marriage micro-battles: clothes, ice, leftovers limits
    • eating out vs groceries, apps, deals, and church dinners
