Podcasts

i think some do have a certain split

Damn. Well, I guess it's every start-up's goal to sell out to a bigger start-up, right? Unfortunately I like Reply All and Heavyweight enough to figure out how to listen to them on Spotify if necessary, which I suppose is worth $230 mil to them.

Also I finally took a stab at making my own podcast (interviews with electronic music people): https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/digital-warmth/id1451018142

nice!

my spanish is getting a little rusty so i've started listening to spanish language podcasts.

NPR have one called Radio Ambulante which I've enjoyed

can anyone recommend a deep (ideally interview w/ expert focused) podcast on natural world / nature / evolution topics?

not a podcast but Natural Histories can be really good

I just discovered Ducan Trussell's Family Hour so I'm good for like, a year

iirc a lot of Duncan Trussell hate in here. I have enjoyed this podcast.

Digging Tim Heidecker's Office Hours, it is not boring. Sort of chaotic and disorganized in a fun way.

This may not be an exact match, but I like Fieldwork Diaries - https://www.fieldworkdiaries.com

Not precisely the right thread but christ, the latest Android Pocket Casts update is an absolute shithouse: glitchy as hell, fugly and the UI has gone backwards. Ugh.

Google Podcasts is the only app I've tried that seems simple and intuitive

Guys a podcast I have been working on for literally almost a year comes out tomorrow. It feels like much of that time was spent convincing various people I work with not to can it. I'm very very proud of it but it is pretty... unusual ("weird" is the word I keep hearing) and I would love it if each and every person reading this goes and rates it/subscribes etc.

All six episodes drop tomorrow.

or indeed in the official app/website: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p071wbr5/episodes/downloads

Good luck!

Thank you!

pocket casts is such a mess now, wtf are they doing

good to know. Will continue to not update it on Android. From reading about the update on Google Play, sounds like a lot more monetization afoot.

I wish I liked the open source Antennapod. anyone use it? I don't suppose it has become good?

Listening to your podcast now, Tracer Hand. It’s great! Very compelling and weirdly tense so far (I’m two episodes in).

Awesome. Rate! review! :)

will it be fun if I've never heard of Keith Olberman?

I hadn't heard of him but the first two episodes were entertaining and compelling indeed and made me want to find out what'll happen so I'm on for the ride!
Out of curiosity, what was your role in the series, Tracer?

tracer is keith olberman

Notoriously hard to work with.

(I enjoyed it despite having no idea who the two main dudes in the thing were / are. But I found it a piquant little taste of the way dudes behave and interact, and the bemusement that generates in those around them.)

holy crap it's Keith Olberman!

I just finished listening and will certainly rate and review. I didn’t really know of Keith Olbermann before but I found him extremely likeable. I would love if there was another series! I think there were a lot of great underlying questions about why people even form friendships and what makes a connection genuine or possible.

i commissioned it and acted basically as as the "exec". i am also the voice at the end of each episode!

Really glad to hear the positive reactions. It is an unusual beast and after working on something for so long it can be hard to know how it will sound to someone coming to it fresh.

Impressed that nobody in the UK knows who Keith Olbermann is

I'm Canadian, and after googling his name I am very confused about what it is he does. Will listen!

he is or was on television

He is back on ESPN here and there but doesn't have his own show thus far.

Odd I saw discussion of Olberman a couple of years ago on UK left-wing twitter (as a kind of not very good version of liberal Alex Jones type) and its odd to see this now - will listen and see how this shapes up.

The last I saw of Keith was a piece of political commentary in which he presented 8 reasons why Trump would soon be removed from office. That was late '17 :(

Lol Olberman is nothing like Alex Jones
More like liberal Tucker

I googled him after above discussion and it said he stopped doing political commentary (after 187 episodes of an anti-Trump commentary show) bcz of his certainty that Trump would not finish his term, and returned to sports punditry

i enjoyed him as a sports pundit (i love old clips of him & dan patrick doing sportscenter)
was not v into his political commentary but i am not v into politics anyway
