OKAY SO. WHERE HAVE I BEEN???









Working. lol But I've been brainstorming a lot as well, and figured some things out...

Alright. Guys, I got the gameplan now. I was trying to think of better and more consistent ways to be able to record, because the times slots that I spent recording before are pretty much never options anymore. The folks got a new puppy, he make a lotta noise. Knocks me out of character, can't record. Or just the noise in the background.



So then I thought, what if I could just. Go to a place that was private to record. I thought about the library, because some libraries give you spaces to record audio, for projects etc. Would probably be free too, but that would not work for the Spicy™ audios so. Can't do that. But then I thought about hotels, but even that still posed an issue of either having quiet or noisy neighbors, but also it could be not so great for audio and the other rooms could hear me, which would again be an issue.



So I decided to I'll be renting out an airbnb once a month to batch record the audios, for everything! I already got the thumbnail and titling problems down, making scripts feels like breathing to me so we're good there, both the Reverie channels are still growing so I figured I'd invest in keeping more consistent content for you guys, and it would give my life a bit more structure too. Healthy habits and all!



I want to thank you all for sticking with me for so long, I know the past year has gotten very spotty, but I plan on doing everything I can to get things back to posting and keeping everyone happy!



I've already got the first recording session booked and paid for, I'll be working on scripts and stories and thumbnails and making characters etc in the meantime!

Sorry I took so long to address this, I really wanted to have some solid to report back to y'all instead of just being like "Sorry, I'm busy." So yeah! Solutions! Structure. Creativity. That is what I want right now. Hope y'all are ready for it!




Much love,



Rev



Oh yeah work has been doing pretty great, it's good money for the amount of work I put in. Really can't complain much.

Real life update: I NABBED MYSELF A JOB! I'll be working at Target as an Inbound Expert (Inbound and stocking of the store). This has been a long time coming, and although most people would think this might disable me from making as much content, it's actually the opposite!!



For a really long time now my folks I live with thought I wasn't trying hard enough to get a "real job" despite making money from doing my passions online, like this channel and many others I've been running for years now. While it hasn't paid me a livable wage, I definitely have enjoyed it so so much seeing people be truly impacted by the content I make. Whether that's people needing distraction by watching my livestreams on Twitch, getting a small snippet of fun from my skits via my shorts and Tiktoks, or getting aid for sleep via my ASMR on both my Youtube channels. I'm very aware of proud of what I've accomplished both in how much it's made me, but mostly just how it impacts people. I've founded communities, made friends, have had relationships with people, and of course provided content for many to consume. Nothing will take that from me, no matter how negative the people in my physical life try to negate that.



Getting this job means I'll be able to have more agency. Essentially I was told that unless I made ends meet I wasn't allowed to socialize or "have fun", because that meant I wasn't "trying hard enough". They accused me of taking advantage of my situation instead of trying to be better for myself, when in reality I've been picking up the pieces of severe trauma and depression from the last 15 years. I've come to a realization that these people, despite being my blood family, will never understand what it is I've gone through, and that even if they did it is much too late to backpedal and try to apologize. I fully intend on moving out after getting some money saved and essentially cutting ties, as soon as I possibly can.



That being said, I've got more agency to do things now that I've got the job they've been so angry about me not having. And I had already been gearing up to try and pay rent with the revenue from these forms of content I've been pumping out in the last few months. So thank you all so much for helping me SO MUCH to get to this point. It was because of all of you that I could survive in the first place, I could not put into words how thankful I am that you all have stuck with me for so long.


Timeframe wise, I'm hoping to be out of this house by July. I think by then I'll have a good amount of savings and have gotten essentials to be out on my own, and by then I'll be MUCH more set on being able to record. As it stands, even though I was almost going to make enough to pay rent doing so, these people would not even give me 1 hour of any day of the week to record. When I asked for some sort of agreement they pretty much said "Tough. Can't you record in your car anyways?" So. When I move out I'll be able to record MUCH more freely, and you'll see way more content when those days come. Until then I'll continue to work this job and keep recording when I can. I genuinely enjoy recording and crafting these stories so, no worries on motivation to keep going. I've got that in spades, I promise!



Again though, thank you all for sticking with me. I can't tell you how incredible happy I am to be able to see myself moving out with confidence soon here. I'm excited to see where this goes, and I hope you'll stick with me until that happens!



I'll be posting this message on both sides, so sorry if you see this twice!



Much love,



Rev

Alright so. Loud and clear, y'all want a Patreon. 158 votes, 93% for yes. So, here you go!
www.patreon.com/cw/GentleSpiceASMR
Obviously, no pressure for joining in. And please consider that this is the start, pricing may feel steep as there's not a lot of audios just yet (There's only one short audio to start, more coming soon!). But hang in there and the library will grow, any and all support definitely is encouraging to keep this ball rolling! Thanks so much for anyone who wants to consider!

Also, the pricing should be the same here there for the exclusive content, so anyone that would rather support there instead to not have to use youtube for the exclusive content specifically can make the swap if you'd like, though the early access doesn't carry over as I don't post all my audios to Patreon so please keep that in mind.

Much love,

Rev

I have a spicy patreon running for the ⁨‪@FurReverie‬ side of things at the moment, and it's been doing pretty well. If you are interested, it should be linked in the about-me section. I was wondering if I should run a Spicy patreon separate for this side though.

Currently, I'm in a position where I stream on Twitch for income, this second patreon would essentially replace that time-wise. But I'd need to know if you all were interested to even consider that.

No pressure to support, but let me know what y'all think! If you have any questions or suggestions, you are always welcome to comment them too. Nothing is being set in stone here, I'm simply just trying to iron out some recording scheduling and need to know what exactly I'll be recording for. While considering things, it was an idea I had so that's why I'm asking <3

Much love,

Rev.

Take a peek at the recent sleep aid audio for me and let me know what you think:
Do I keep doing more of these or naw? This style of sleep aid is doing well over on the ‪@FurReverie‬ side of things. So to be honest, if I only post them there it's fine. But I need to see some feedback or anything from you guys if I'm going to keep posting them here. Was it too quiet? Too long? Too short? Needs more talking? What's the rub? ^^;

Please let me know,

Yo waddup!

I'm back at it! I've got loads of videos planned, and we're running a completely separate channel over on the furry side of things. If that's not your gig, totally understand. There's a reason why I ran this channel the way I have been. Though tbh a lot of y'all seem to be furry adjacent with how many of you enjoyed those collar videos... :P

If you want to give it a peep, I won't stop you! ‪@FurReverie‬ is the channel. It would be pretty cool to see more of y'all over there. There's also a discord I'm much more active in there too so. Maybe check that out too! I hang out in VCs ALL THE TIME. You could land in them and say hi, it's been fun interacting with y'all.

So what's going on with the scheduling? To be completely honest with ya, I really can't promise much. I will say that I'll be uploading a LOT more exclusive content as I feel pretty bad leaving you all hanging for so long. I'm going to make it worth your while, I promise. Just hang in there a little longer. Your continued support has literally kept me going. Thank you SO much.

I want to shoot for at least weekly on both sides. Then just go from there. I'm also launching a patreon for uh... Spicy content. It'll be starting over on the furry side, but if there's a call for it for non-furry spicy patreon audios then I'll heavily consider it because uh. Ya boy still hasn't found employment. Trying my best to find something every day, but it seems even despite holiday seasonal work going up nothing is biting so. I'm trying to utilize my skills to make ends meet, I hope y'all understand! I still very much do this for the craft but. Gotta do whatcha gotta do!

Anywho. Hope you all have been well. Sorry I haven't been the most active but, we're gunna change that! Much love!

Heyo!

A lot of you are probably wondering where the hell I've been, I can explain!

I've been going through a lot in my irl, I had to stop the job I was originally funding this channel with due to a panic attack, and since then I've not been able to get a job. I decided that since it had been a while, I'd give streaming on what I call "The other side™" another try and uh well... That's been going really well actually.

Now before you think "Oh no, he's quitting!" Quite the opposite, actually. I'm already planning many more scripts, for not just this channel either. I guess there's not really a good way of saying it other than bluntly but uh. I dabble in furry culture, a lot. ^^; In fact most of my content creation experience comes from making content as a furry. Originally I had planned on letting you all know about this, and hopefully anyone that didn't mind that style of content to invite you over to experience my livestreaming over on Twitch, but the thumbnails and images I used on this channel spooked me. I wanted to make sure that I took the proper amount of time to let the mistakes I made air out, and I feel that I've taken that time.

The rest of the videos I'm willing to re-upload are now scheduled, I've removed the remaining bits of content left that contained my mistakes. It feels really good knowing that I've reversed this mistake while maintaining viewership here, and honestly I have you all to thank for that... It's beyond wild to me that you all still watch and comment every single day. I am truly blessed, I cannot express my thanks properly. Thank you for believing in this channel. Thank you for giving me another chance. Thank you for staying for me. From the bottom of my heart, it has been a very restorative process. Thank you.

Going forward, I'd like to post more often than I had before. But also, I am planning on opening up furry-styled ASMR roleplays on another youtube channel, just to keep the content clean and the two styles separate. Why? Well, as a furry content creator of 5 years I've got to say that in my experience most folks do not like the idea of furries. I'm obviously not okay with it because I think that tends to be a bit narrow sighted, but there's also just a baseline of preference at play. Some folks won't want to imagine a wolf cuddling them, it just wouldn't make a whole lot of sense to a lot of folks. That I understand lol.

As far as community events goes, I will be doing most of that over on the furry side. I am, unfortunately, just 1 person. I cannot maintain two separate communities. You ALL are of course welcome to join, but the foundation of the community is on the "other side" so. Please be open minded. (Tbh, most of the community stuff we did over on this side was furry anyways sooooooo. I don't forsee this being too big of an issue.)

For those that do want to join early and get a feel for things, here's the discord:
discord.gg/fwrGff29Uu
And for those interested in the livestreaming and maybe wanna drop a follow there I pretty much stream DAILY so. You will catch me here:
www.twitch.tv/flint_hale (IF YOU DO JOIN AND CATCH ME LIVE PLEASE TELL ME WHERE YOU CAME FROM I'D LOVE TO THANK YOUUUUU)

I won't be making an official announcement on the "Other" side just yet, I'd like for all the scheduled videos to flow through before I start showing folks this side! But you all can come over, if you would like! No hard feelings either way, I am aware that furry content can be a lot haha!

Thank you all again. I will give more updates and be more active socially here from now on, I want to keep this ball rolling and keep providing you all with more M4M content... I took a look at the current state and uh. Yeah. I need to start posting newer content, we in the drought again ; n ; I gotchu guys. Many more dom moments, many more collars, many more good boys. Just you wait!

Hello everyone, how has the year been treating you? Hope you've all been well! I've got an important update regarding scheduling of public/exclusive videos and replacing the existing videos.

I did a livestream with a more frank take on all of this, but the tl;dr is:

This channel was founded with the idea of using AI for the thumbnails.
I no longer fuck with the idea of using AI for the thumbnails.
I will be replacing every video that has AI in the thumbnail or video and replacing it with the same audio, minus the AI.

So what does this mean?

Pubic videos:
Mondays, biweekly

Exclusive videos:
Fridays, monthly (With extras on off days if time)

I'm going to have the schedule take effect and begin with the videos replacing the old ones, if you have any favorites or any that you put into playlists go ahead and redo that as they go reuploaded.

There are a few videos I didn't quite enjoy and I'll just be outright removing those ones, they'll stay up until the current remake gets to its position and I'll take them down as I pass them up. It's mostly just the Mafia series and the Yandere series. There was just something about when I made those that felt off for me creatively. (I dunno if I'm suppose to condone this but if anyone wants to save it you can. idc. Maybe I'll post the raw audio to a discord or something? If you're interested just lmk)

A lot of thinking has led to all of this, it may seem a bit obvious or simple to some but for me to get to this point myself it presented a lot of hurdles. But we got here, and there's many more hurdles to go! Thanks so much for sticking around, I'll be doing more content that I find comfy myself rather than trying to be so diverse. I think I can be comfortable in a niche now.

I'm thinking comfort sleep aid/good boy content will probably be fine imho. It bothers me the least when I listen back to it. ^^;

What do you guys think? I'll try and think of something creative to do for the thumbnails but for now they are just the quotes from the prior thumbnails and the color that represents the vibe (Green = comfort/goodboy, Blue = Soft dom/Comfort, Red = Hard dom, Orange/Yellow, = tsundere/brat, etc) so. Hopefully it's fine.

A lot of my frank thoughts are over on the most recent live so. If you're interested give that a watch.

Much love guys. I'm still here, and I'm still gunna be making content. Just a little more slowly and on a tighter schedule. <3
