Faraway, So Micro

I’m live now on Twitch or YouTube doing some podcast production work.

Come hang out and ask any q’s you have about podcasting or winters in Canada. 🥶

I’m going to be live streaming while I work a bit more on my Why’d You Follow Me? podcast this afternoon (1:45pm CST / 2:45pm EST), so feel free to join on Twitch or YouTube.

I really don’t need yet another blog or CMS, but the folks behind Good Enough have built a lovely little blogging engine in Pika that you should check out if you’re needing a blog home without a benevolent dictator at the helm.

Hang out with Tim and I around 1:45pm CST / 2:45pm EST as he joins me to ask questions about setting up a new podcast. Join us on YouTube or Twitch today.

I was listening to The Daily’s episode on Justin Trudeau stepping down and they ended by implying that progressive politics is on the way out… which felt like a weird way to frame a world still reverberating from the effects of a global pandemic we haven’t dealt with.

…and then this post, “We should not confuse what makes money with what is good” kind of riffs off Meta & LLM’s with a similar sentiment to my previous videos + podcasting post. YouTube is rewarding video “podcasts” right now, but they’ll change. Then what do you do?

👏 Podcasting’s unique selling proposition is not video:

“I think that the rush to video is possibly the biggest lowlight, not just for last year, but the biggest lowlight in the last five years of the industry.”

U2’s The Edge, also a happy Shure SM7B podcaster?

You’d think professional musicians would have better mic technique though. It looks pretty far away from him, but might just be perspective. 😆

I did a TikTok Live for ~3 minutes and “earned” $0.01 so… I guess I can finally shut down the podcast editing business and focus on TikTok in 2025.

My first attempt with Apple Intelligence + making a digital selfie. Not sure about the headphone placement, what kind of podcast is all code, and why my right hand is definitely 5 fingers with no visible thumb?
