When you're not stressing about the current project, you're stressing about the next project, and A.I. is making it worse. You're already overwhelmed by how much you have to do and how behind you are on the edit. Now every time you look at YouTube, you feel like you're getting behind on AI, and that just adds to your stress. Today I'm going to share the most impo... | 14m 08s | ||||||

This one's off the cuff. I was packing the car for a week's camping with Sam when I realised we'd hit 400 episodes, and I wasn't going to let it slide past without saying something. No guest, no script, just me on the mic.

| 4/21/26 | The $10k/Month AI Distraction! EP#399 | Send us Fan Mail In this episode, Den dives into a trap that many filmmakers and creative entrepreneurs are falling into: the "productivity" of building things you don't actually need. With the rise of AI tools and "vibe coding," it has never been easier to spend hours automating processes or building custom calculators.
