This is the thing I’ve done 25 times, and I know how to do it for reals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Welcome to WordPress Briefing, episode 20. Oh no, 7? 27? 26? Episode 27. I know how many things I’ve done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ooh, neat. This is Josepha recording episode 46 of the WP Bonus Briefings. Not because we’ve had 46 bonus Briefings, but because this is the 46th one and it is a bonus, it will also have a fancy name. But right now, I’m just calling it the bonus. It’s gonna be quick. Here I go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Group them into two big buckets, themes, uh, themes and tools. Mmm, I’m gonna have to redo the whole thing! No! I thought I could save it, and I didn’t save it. I had a typo in my script, and then I messed it up. I, it said into you big buckets instead of into two big buckets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n [Josepha Haden Chomphosy 00:02:00] <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I’m gonna start over from the target release date because I kind of smeared it all together, um, despite what I intended to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And gives everyone, no. What is this ringing of phones? Oh, I was doing so well. Where was I? Let’s see if I can just pick it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All righty, live from my closet. It’s episode 20, the WordPress Briefing, WP Briefing. So I have a title for this, and when I started writing it, I really had every intention of writing it to the title. And then what I wrote doesn’t fit the title at all, but does really hang together well. And so we’re gonna have to come up with a new title, but at the moment, it’s called So Many Ways to WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here in a minute, you will see why it doesn’t fit. Also, at the end, I feel like I get very, like, angry nerd leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n [Josepha Haden Chomphosy 00:03:00] <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n And so I may, I may at the end, give that a second go and see if there’s a way that I can soften it a little bit, but, I, I don’t know that I can soften it. I feel very strongly about it. So, maybe I am just an angry nerd leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Oh, okay. I’ll get us started now that I apparently have filled the room with apologies, not the room, the closet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We’ll figure out something very catchy as a title or as an alternative. Very descriptive, and people will click on it because they must know, but we’ll figure out the title later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n @wordpress.org. However, I don’t know why I decided to do an invitation to email me in the middle of that. I’m gonna start from the top of that paragraph. I just got too excited by the opportunity to get mail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I gotta slow it down. I’m like the fastest talker, had too much coffee. Okay, slowing it down now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Huh? What am I saying? No, no, that’s what I’m saying. It’s fine. I, I can do this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n [Josepha Haden Chomphosy 00:04:00]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hold on. Oww. Sorry. I was adjusting my microphone, and then it fell down. I happened to be holding it at the time, so it didn’t, like, slam down, I think, and hurt your ears and so I apologize. Good thing I stopped so it didn’t just, like, slam down in the middle of a recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That’s all right. I’m gonna give myself that win, even though it’s a hollow one. All right. Trying again. Starting right there, at now since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This year, it starts on October 18th, 2001. That’s the year? No, 2021. That’s the year. Oh man. I’m doing such a great job of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Um, I’m recording this slightly before, um, you’re hearing it? What, how am I gonna start this? Hold on. I don’t know how to start this. All right. I’m, I can do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Oh, I’m so glad I remembered. We had guests that could have been so embarrassing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now for me, the trade-offs work well. How many times can I say now?<\/p>\n\n\n\n [Josepha Haden Chomphosy 00:05:00] <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Do I just start every sentence with now now? Is this just how I do things? Uh, now, now, now, now. I’m gonna start all over again because I’m in my head about the words in my mouth now. So.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In some near timeframe, some near timeframe. This is not a thing that people say, Dustin, I’m sorry. That’s not a thing people say. I’m just gonna retry that one sentence to sound like I speak with other human beings sometimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today is the start of\u2026 I can do these things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This was a terrible ending. I need to just finish that last part. I’m gonna redo the part where I started with my name and not the name of the podcast. Um, and we’ll do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And if you’re supporting or building anything to hand off to clients, you know that timely, easy to ship changes on a site are considered a vital part of any overarching brand and marketing strategy. Wow. It’s like, I don’t know what words are right there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n [Josepha Haden Chomphosy 00:06:00] <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I tripped over my own tongue a lot. I’m gonna sit, I’m gonna do that paragraph again because I didn’t do a very good job of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I’ll do a better job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I literally digress, and now I don’t know. I am in my thing. What was I saying? Oh, there we go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Topher DeRosia, who founded Word not WordPress. Holy moly. That was a, I knew I was gonna say that, and I was like, don’t say that when you actually get around to saying this, but here I am, and I did it. Even though I knew I was gonna do it and I told myself not to. Doing it again. Right from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Not which audiench segment. Oh man. Audiench is not a word, folks. I was on a roll. I’m gonna start right from the primary thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I don’t even remember how I started this podcast. What is the last thing I said? I said, here we go. All right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Kind of covered some interesting ground, and so, oh no, this is not where I’m gonna start it. I know exactly where I’m gonna start it. Okay. I’m really ready now. Here we go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n [Josepha Haden Chomphosy 00:07:00] <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I suddenly, I’m gonna pause right here because I suddenly got really worried that I didn’t actually hit record. Oh my gosh. I did. Woo. I’m all over the place. Okay. We’ll now continue. Wait, did I? Oh my goodness. I did, super sorry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of the WordPress Briefing. I’m gonna do some singing in the middle of some talking, but I keep trying to talk myself out of the singing, so I’m gonna go ahead and do the singing, and then I’ll do the talking before I talk myself out of the singing. Here I go, probably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I added a word. That was so good. I’m gonna start again. I’m gonna get some water, and then I’m gonna start again. Not again. Again. Just from the \u2018and finally.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n I don’t know how I finish my show. Y’all, I do this literally every week. I never know how to finish my show. Here we go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I don’t know why I shouted at you from the other side of the tiny closet. I apologize. I’m gonna start again from \u2018and finally.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tada we did it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n [Josepha Haden Chomphosy 00:08:00] <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Ha. I hate it. I hate the whole podcast. It’s gonna be fine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Done. Nailed it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n [Josepha Haden Chomphosy 00:00:00] <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n With that, I’m your host, Josepha Haden Chomphosy. Merry Christmas from me. Happy holidays to you, and we’ll see you again in the new year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This episode of the WP Briefing features all the Josepha bloopers our little elves have stored away over the year. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20185970,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"episode_type":"audio","audio_file":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2022\/12\/WP-Briefing-046.mp3","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"8:43","filesize":"8.4MB","date_recorded":"2022-12-31 12:00:00","explicit":"","block":"","filesize_raw":"8383559","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[420],"tags":[339],"series":[558],"class_list":["post-14123","podcast","type-podcast","status-publish","hentry","category-podcast","tag-wp-briefing","series-wordpress-briefing-a-wordpress-podcast"],"episode_featured_image":false,"episode_player_image":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2022\/09\/WP_Briefing-Podcast-Cover-1.png?fit=1400%2C1400&ssl=1","download_link":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/news\/podcast-download\/14123\/episode-46-the-wp-bloopers-podcast.mp3","player_link":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/news\/podcast-player\/14123\/episode-46-the-wp-bloopers-podcast.mp3","audio_player":"\nCredits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
