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.

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.

I know HTML + CSS things, and I’m a expert level FrontPage ‘98 user - why move forward from perfection?
