my husband and I hosted our first room on Clubhouse<\/a> and chatted for about 30 minutes. We figured, \u201cClubhouse sounds like fun, but we\u2019ll never know until we give it a try\u2014let\u2019s do it tonight!\u201d We decided on the spur of the moment and announced the room at short notice, but around 30 to 40 people tuned in.<\/p>\nThank you so much!<\/p>\n
Since it was our first time, we talked about:<\/p>\n
\u30fbIntroducing ourselves
\n\u30fbHow we came to start this blog
\n\u30fbThe story behind the blog and whether it really is an independent personal blog
\n\u30fbWhat first drew us to Porsche
\n\u30fbThe 992 Turbo S my husband recently had the chance to test-drive<\/p>\n
It was our first time speaking to an audience together as a couple. We were told that our voices would overlap if we spoke from the same room using separate accounts, so even though we were in the same house, we shut ourselves away in separate rooms with the doors closed<\/strong>\u2014a pretty surreal setup, haha.<\/p>\nAt first, we found ourselves slipping into overly formal language and wondering, \u201cWhat should we call each other in a situation like this?<\/strong>\u201d But after giving it a try, I realized that the slightly awkward, spontaneous atmosphere is part of what makes Clubhouse fun.<\/p>\nUnlike speaking in front of a live audience, you can\u2019t see how listeners are reacting, which makes it harder to adjust your topics or steer the conversation on the fly. Still, you can probably just relax and chat, much like you would on a radio show.<\/p>\n
That said, we were relieved to hear from listeners, \u201cI wanted to hear more!\u201d and \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to the next one!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\nWe didn\u2019t talk much about cars in our first room, but we\u2019d love to spend more time on automotive topics in future sessions. It could also be fun to broadcast from inside one of our cars, like our GT3 or 911. We\u2019d also like to talk about subjects that are popular on the blog, such as life lessons and the philosophy of success\u2014and it would be great to collaborate with other guests, too.<\/p>\n
We plan to host rooms from time to time, so if you\u2019re on Clubhouse, we\u2019d love it if you followed us.<\/p>\n
