Podcasting
I kinda love how passionately Marc Maron hates podcasts being on Netflix. 😆
New ep of my #podcast is out In (limited) Praise of the Algorithm or wherever you get your podcasts.
This will only make sense to the #podcasting nerds out there, but my hot take today is that Riverside should’ve stayed focused on making the recording experience amazing and Descript should’ve stayed focused on making the editing experience amazing.
World peace was possible in our time.
Continuing my #podcast experiment with Subwave, here’s another episode talking about the strengths / weakness of podcasting. Subscribe at the usual places or watch/listen on Subwave.

Someone asked me if I’ve ever done a podcast (short answer: yes quite a few, but nothing currently has stuck) and I was reminded of a podcast I did a long time ago back in 2012 interviewing folks like Brett Terpstra, Shawn Blanc, and others. I can’t find any of the audio anymore though. :(
I’m bullish on video + #podcasting for those that want to do it, but for anyone just getting into it now, getting an episode out the door is so much heavier with video. Of course files are bigger.. but every step just takes longer. Exports. Notice a visual OR audio mistake. Re-export. Upload. etc.
Request to Riverside, Descript, etc. as a podcast editor: If I have my own paid account with your service, just let me be added to a client’s paid account so we can share assets properly. Don’t make me convince my client to start paying extra for me when I’m already paying for my own account.
I use Riverside’s “Pixelize” transition when editing CodePen’s podcast because they’re all about code. Which is kinda like pixels? Anyways. awkward silence cough
