The Demo Tape (AI-Audio Version)
I woke up at 3 AM before a show in Austin, walked down to the hotel lobby, and converted this entire manuscript into audio using an AI clone of my own voice. It's not a professional studio recording—but it is me, and it exists because I’ve learned to use tools like this to live a quadruple life as a musician, marketer, speaker, and content creator.
That's not a workaround. It's a live demonstration of deploying AI for efficiency—a practice I talk about quite a bit in this book.
But there's another reason you're listening to an AI-generated track right now. Back in the Third Day era, we were incredibly protective of our unpolished tracks. Demos weren't for public consumption; they were reserved for a very small, exclusive circle of people we trusted to tell us the truth before we ever stepped into a studio to record the masters.
The same principle applies here. It's simply not worth recording the final audiobook until I get your feedback. If you have access to this page, you are a trusted voice being invited backstage to help shape the final record.
Press Play or Take It to Go: You can stream the raw tracks right here on the page using the player below, or download the full audio files to listen in the car, on a run, or wherever you usually spin your favorite cassettes.
