Podcasting
Podcasters might be trying to use AI to get rid of me, the podcast editor, but I’m secretly using AI to get rid of podcasters with my library of audio of their voices. Pretty soon I’ll be able to publish better episodes without the need to spend time recording silly humans. š
Editing a client’s podcast and the guest starts off by saying “…and so I moved here from Dublin, Ireland” - and I know I’m going to enjoy listening to them no matter what the topic is.
Stupid walk for stupid mental health time. This time Iām listening to The Daily for updates on Ukraine. What podcasts are you listening to this week?
Do you have a podcast dream?
If you could just hit record, talk with whoever you’d like about whatever you’d like, and know all the editing and publishing was going to be taken care of and you could just show up and do it - what kind of podcast would you want to do?
The best time to start a journal, blog, or podcast documenting toxic leadership is before it starts. The second best time is right now.
Don’t ignore that little voice in your head that says “hmm… might be interesting to have some of this documented”, even if you’re not sure.
Is there an AI tool of some sort that would allow you to upload audio of a podcast and have it spit out the amount of time each voice talks over the episode?
Another reminder that Spotify podcasting was reckless with money. I feel bad for the good podcast folks who got hired and then fired because of deals like this. Woof.
Possibly half-baked Friday afternoon thought: If you own a local radio station, you should be setting up a side business for selling podcast advertising. The same sales team doing the work to sell radio adverts can also sell podcast ads.
While editing a client’s podcast, I learned about t.ly as a very short URL shortener. Plus it’s run by an indie dev, so you’re not giving money to some faceless corporation.
