It was fantastic to be on the show yesterday, I’m always deeply impressed by all those creative ideas and projects that are all somehow tied to Steem.
Will there be a recording of the Forum? @teamhumble mentioned it during the chat if I remember well..?

Hope you can relax a bit on the weekend!

Hi Marley thank you for coming on the show. I am really looking forward to seeing the entries for your video ad contest.
I have just finished work now so will process the recording and it should be online shortly.
And thank you for your kind words. It is time consuming but extremely interesting putting this all together.
