#8 - Cooked A Website, Continuing My Hiatus, Custom Application For My News Podcast Is Progressing Well
Going from zero to AI in a few weeks with my custom application for PHP Serverless News, that will help me expand my coverage significantly. Which has made my extended podcasting hiatus immensely worthwhile. I have formally closed down my CookingRuntimes.com, as I will not be maintaining production grade custom PHP runtimes for Lambda.

#7 - Hiatus To Work On New Sponsorship Site, And Doing A New AI Application
Taking a hiatus from podcasting to work on my new sponsorship site. I curated my own list of PHP podcasts and YouTube channels, and it is an interesting list. I looked into general podcast sponsorship and advertising for the first time, which was an eye opener. I am closing my CookingRuntimes.com website. I am building a new app for my News podcast, using the Laravel AI SDK.

#6 - A Frustrating 2025 Concludes On A High Note
2025 was supposed to be a year of smooth podcast production and publication. That is not how it turned out. I introduced a new podcast show. I had to build new features for my custom podcast platform to support my shows. I messed up my shows with overlapping formats. It settled down in the fall, with 2025 concluding on a high note.

#5 - Over The Hump With Over The Hump
My "over the hump" syndrome reared its ugly head again, after an innocuous genesis. I am now back to producing my full slate of podcasts. And, I have a plan for cauterizing the seeds of this syndrome, to ensure the primacy of my podcast schedule.

#3 - Panic Attack Redux. And, Progress With My News And Profiles Podcasts
Seeing a video of an integrated AI code generation and deployment platform, triggered a panic attack that AI did indeed make my PHP Serverless Project obsolete. I had examined this last month, in my Update podcast this very question, and my conclusion is the same.
And, big progress with my PHP Serverless News and Profiles podcasts.
