So the trick is to create content, how do you do that? One easy way is to create around topical things like news, or a holiday.  For example the other day President Trump said the reason we’re having out of control wild fires is that we aren’t “raking the forest“.   That was my starting point for this quick trick:

It’s not hard to create this way.  The downside is that when you do this stuff has a shelf life.  Material based on the news is a few days to a few weeks. If you create content based on a holiday, you’ve got a week, but you can recycle it every year or every few years.

So go out and think of a trick!
