    54 - Mr. Dustin’s Approach to Breaststroke
            The underwater type of swimming, and is probably the second stroke you will learn (maybe backstroke so 3rd). Approach it like you are cutting a pizza, and you'll be all set!

    52 - Mr. Dustin’s Swim Academy - Substack or Ghost CMS?
            I wanted to take a moment and explain why I moved off of Substack in the beginning despite it being a completely valid platform. Not to mention I was marketing it more than even my home Ghost site. So why did I move?
