I just published a new episode of my podcast called “3 Quick Things: Threads, New iPhones, and Violence in the USA Bleeds Everywhere”. 🎧


When should a blog post be a podcast episode be a TikTok clip be a YouTube video be a newsletter issue be a faxed paper be a text message be sent by a carrier pigeon?


I complained about YouTube yesterday, today I’ll give them props for adding a simple “reuse details” so when you upload a new video you can click it and choose a previous video to pull metadata from. Really helpful for podcasts. I wish podcast hosting companies would do it too.

For today’s #selfie, a reminder to drink water before, during, and after you attempt to record a podcast. Don’t want to get dry, raspy throat sounds. Unless you’re doing a dry, raspy throaty podcast I guess.

Look I get why it might be attractive to have all your #podcasting eggs in one basket like this, but I really strongly advise against it based on past history of tech companies trying to be “the one”, only to have investors decide they need “the cash” more than they want to be “the one”.
