Podcasting
Is there any decent #WordPress themes out there that aren’t just blocks and patterns that force you to build your own website? I want a theme that’s opinionated and decides all that crap for me so I can just throw my work details in and get back to editing podcasts. Anyone?
AI is taking over podcasting with it’s giant microphone and piercing, dead eyes.
Also be sure your podcast is inclusive of people with three legs.

I’m focusing 100% of my marketing efforts for 2025 on walking around empty Meta Horizon VR worlds asking if anyone needs a podcast editor. (This was at a Shawn Mendes concert?)

I appreciate that Buttondown makes sure you’re serious enough about the relationship before allowing naked mode. 😆

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.
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.
