      Thanks so much! With Glenn focused on half the week's content, it's hard to get narration from him rrecorded, so sometimes Slim has to step in. Few liked my narration either, and I'm a real human, so... can't please em all. 😅

    I love the concept and content of this video. Monument Valley was closed when we drove through in 2020, but I loved all of the other sights. Driving down Moki Dugway was an unexpected thrill!

    • @CactusAtlas
      @CactusAtlas  8 місяців тому +1

      I remember the closure. We were keeping an eye on the Navajo Tribal Park's webpage to see when things would open back up for visits and it felt like the longest time. Pushed off plans for any trips to that area for a while. I remember the first encounter with the Moki Dugway too. Unexpected thrill definitely describes it! 😄

      I wish we could have Glenn narrating each video, but to keep up this schedule, I sometimes have to work independently while Glenn's filming or working on other projects. 🤷‍♀️ I know it's not everyone's cup of tea. We're trying to balance the type of videos, though. 😟

      I haven't started the video yet, so don't really know why you brought this up, but must assume it is the AI generated voice? I actually turned it off once I realized that "Slim" was talking. It actually hurts my ears and gives me a headache! I don't know if it is the deep base in the voice or what. I'm not saying that as a cliche. I truly mean that I cannot listen to the voice because it hurts. Maybe I can watch with the volume off? I must add, however, that I love watching this channel's videos when Glenn is doing the talking.

      I feel your pain.
      I have tinnitus from my previous career and this AI voice annoys me for some damn reason.
      The video is still worth watching even on mute of really low volume.

      We might be a little partial for that reason too. 🤫 It's hard. One has the iconic features, and one has the solitude. Luckily, they're so close together.

    Wow, someone's trying out for a PBS Documentary1 The Slim touch was great, and the drones shots were something those of us who have visited all of these sights never imagined. Awesome! Truly sad that the Navaho Nation outlaws these types of views. Their way of reprisal? If so, I guess we deserve it.

    • @CactusAtlas
