Announcing My Semi-Blog Retirement.
Do you know I’ve been blogging for half of my life? Half. I started when I was 17 with Chuck’s Corner. At the time, the URL did not account for the s so it was chuckcorner. I didn’t know what I was doing then. That blog site lasted me until Summer 2009. At that time, I wanted to put together a blog network with my friends. Six buddies who all could write what they wanted. I had this idea that talking about national topics versus local was a good idea. I called it ‘Sports News on Tap’ which then became ‘Snotap’. That was for years then we had Tapping The Keg. And now we have where we are right now.
Effective today, I’m not going to be blogging, in the same way, I used to. Covering the viral stories that are out there. For example, Giannis Antetokounmpo was not being recognized in Target with his mask. That would have been a blog nine times out of 10 for me. Rather, the way I’ll use this blog is to promote the podcast and anything we’re doing on social media. I will retool the website to make it more focused on that and less about the teams in the state. That will take some time so be patient with me. I’m not going away, but just doing it differently.
My hope and goal are that I have more time to work on the podcast which can lead to more people listening and building that community forward. For this thing to work, I need to be relentless and only care about that. The blog held me back from that. I’ll provide the links below. Please rate, review, and subscribe to the show. We are hoping for more guests on the show, so, if there is a guest that you would like to see appear that is realistically for us to get, let me know.

I’m not saying goodbye, but I’m not doing what I have been used to for the last five years. It’s weird. It’s going to be clunky at times. I know that is the right path forward even if it feels kind of weird to me.
Love you all,
Charlie.
