podcasting 2.04 main fest 2023 Episode 131 Grab your Twitter scroller. Whoa, we're back. All in one face. Welcome to podcasting. 2.0 That's right, the official board meeting of the future and current state of podcasting, everything going on a podcast index.org podcast namespace and of course, anything we're gossiping about on podcast index dot social. We are the premier podcast boardroom. I'm I'm very here in the heart of the Texas Hill Country and in Alabama, ladies,
he's organized, he's tidy, and he can cook. Say hello to my friend on the other end, Mr. Dave Jones. A three. You can't cook. No, I can't. Yes, you can. You could cook I thought you were you're not really know anybody who can work. If you can maintain a GitHub you can cook. You can read and cook.

No, I have I've I can follow a recipe. Yeah, but the recipes in recipe books horrible. They're like this. This is the typical recipe book. It's okay, you're gonna make Fettuccine Alfredo. First, go make the alfredo sauce, which is on page 13.

You know, you know, the next cloud? You're familiar with the next cloud product, right?

Is this the fork of ownCloud? Yes, exactly.

Yeah. They have a whole recipe module. And it's actually pretty good. And you can even you can just say, go to this URL and import the recipe there. It knows how to parse through a web page pulls it all in, get your ingredient list. It's pretty bad.

Is there an open spec for recipe formatting?

You know, we've? No, I don't think so. But we've talked about this we talked about I think at one point that value for value. Could even be recipes with recipe chapters.

We we talked about in in the boardroom? Yes. This is a weird discussion, a

good idea. It's a great idea. I'm telling you. It's good

medium said we needed a new medium tag. Yeah, he made food

equals a recipe. By the way. Today, as we all know, podcasting 2.0 This podcast is not only a part of the overall podcasting 2.0 project, it is the gateway to the drug that you want on the back end. But it's also where we run with scissors, which means it's very possible due to changes in today's podcast V that it may not even work in your podcast app.

It almost didn't work in yesterday.

So I just yeah, we need to tell everybody how. And I don't use this word lightly how awesome Steven b is. So I'm getting ready for no agenda. We've been doing live shows, while the legacy of lit into a degree is no agenda, who've had an IRC chat room and a stream going for at least 14 years of the 16. And so have that all in a live in your app in one of the four curio caster pod pod verse. A podcast addict podcast Guru, I think that's for so far. These of course phenomenal. So I've
been using it ever since we started podcasting. 2.0 right off the bat is the reason Steven B is so awesome. He created sovereign feeds, sovereign feeds.com, which is how I create all of my podcast feeds. Why is it so awesome? Because whenever we come up with some idea, he implements it, and then we're publishing with that new tag or new feature in the feed. And then he has the flip side to that curio caster, which of course always eats its own dog food. So we so we have one round
robin trip that everybody can try out. And so you know, we've had, you know, so you know, stuff breaks and stuff happens. But now that I'm kind of using sovereign feeds in full on production mode for a couple of years for for no agenda. And I go in there to schedule the live show. And it doesn't work. I'm clicking on the update Live episode just does nothing. I'm refreshing. I'm logging in logging out like, Okay, now it's
time to reach out. And I can't get a hold of Steven. And you know what, okay, I'll just continue this a couple hours before the show. I'll just continue with my prep. And now we're 30 minutes before the show. And I'm like, What am I like, Oh my God. Now I'm thinking Dave knows next step. We have to escalate this to level two.

Tech support, which is no better than level one. Of course neither

of us have his number. Why would we? Why would we?

I'm looking at my signal. I'm like

no, I thought it was in signal two, but I guess I never had I don't know back channeling I'm publishing I'm doing it. On the site itself. I'm sending emails. Like okay, well just it is what it is and then we're into the pre show music and being Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah. And what did you say it was? I think one of the libraries that he was using, made a change.

I see. It's like a date time library, maybe that parses the date. He had a specific something with time. It was something with the time you've looked at what the error was, right?

Yeah, it

was, it was like spitting out an error in the console. And it was like something with parsing the date is whatever, like, like a minutes or something.

Oh, he says, looks like the svelte library. I use as my framework had some changes that broke a few components. I've done some quick fixes, and tested it, it seems to be working again, I'm able to update live item and download the RSS feed. Let me see what was the and this was literally 1257, which is now three minutes before I go live to air. The awesome. This is great. But the thing wasn't like, I wasn't really worried at all, you know, like, Okay, we'll see whatever
happens. And boom, they're just like, Oh, of course, click, click, click, click Live. And just as I'm going live, everyone gets the ping. So I just love that. It actually kind of had very broadcast news type vibe to it, you know, where people are trying to get the tape in the machine on time throwing it across the room like yeah, we did it. We got on air. Hi, everybody.

bucket brigade down the hall with the tape. Yeah, exactly.

So the last board meeting we had, which was two weeks ago, since I had a another oral procedure, which is less fun. That

was the grill the grill was

you know, so this, again, the brochure is very colorful.

Everybody has smiles on their face. Yes.

So this was part two, the first part was the extraction. Now that was a five hour procedure. And this was supposed to be about three. And this is to implant eight posts, which now after

we you sent me the picture of this diagram, and it just makes your it just, it just makes your skin and

makes your nuts extracted go up

is horrible. I mean, like just the idea of screwing titanium posts to your jaw bone is like,

remember, this is freshly grown jaw bone. That's that's

not that's a horrible thing to say. It's not I should not say no. Nobody should ever say freshly grown bone.

It's the technology is pretty outrageous. I mean, it's all pretty high tech. And as part of this this procedure be ahead and by the way I come in so it was a little different this time last time he gave me like Xanax or something or some valium derivative who? Well, yeah. And I was like, Okay, I mean, look, man, I've been a stoner all my life. You think I quit for a couple months, like and I'm like, it's like, my, like, my resistance is gone? No. Like, it was a little little
woozy. So I'm not gonna do something new this time. Okay, what are you doing? Well, you come in an hour early. And I'll give you how doll house you held. Oh, no. House young house. Yeah.

What? No. No, how does the thing that makes you like a zombie. He just woke her up.

Yeah, similar to that. And within 20 minutes, I'm loopy. Like

never even thought that was a coffee company.

It's a benzo I think. But he gave me the max dosage. So I'm gonna Wow. And then yeah, and then the minute I'm kind of going Lupino teenagers there says a prayer. Bless her heart. Yeah. And she leaves you're like, Okay, I'm gonna go feed the dog. And then all this action, you know, the IV goes in through and that's the, again the fentanyl IV and four hours, man, it was long. But what he did is a part of
this. And he kind of showed me this while I was drowsy. He said I'm gonna raise up your sinuses, like three millimeters like what? So they have this, again, new technology. It's guys really into it. And they raise my sinuses up three centimeters. And I'm telling you, you know, once they cleared out that infection near my sinuses, you I went from wearing hearing aids to not wearing hearing aids.

That's the most amazing thing to me that you can do that you don't even need them anymore. So

I went from 10 to six on the headphones. And now I'm from six to five. And again, it's only in the right ear though, but it's improved. as is for now.

I saw an article the other day about oral infection leads to this some new discovery they've made that can lead to rheumatoid arthritis,

all kinds of horrible things.

I'm starting to think that the firt the first time you have a chronic disease, you don't go to the doctor you go to the dentist or

the dentists and have a scan done and they can see Get right there it's like a $200 scam you stand in this thing turns around your head which is quite concerning disconcerting

is blue is blue and X rays through there

definitely definitely is and and they can see it right away okay if your infection and then you know there's a number of things you can do but also your body is always your body is continuously fighting infection it can slow you down make you tired all kinds of stuff and I had this for 10 years so anyway everything's good. So there was some swelling but what was different now is up where you know my my cheekbones and right by my nose and but now that only
lasted three days I missed one no agenda and got through. So we did it on Wednesday. I took off that Thursday and did the Sunday show and I got through okay, I got I got a little dizzy somewhere on the second hour. Got a little dizzy for a second hold up. Now and so today I have my post up and you know if all has gone well then you know in a couple more months and then we put in my my new teeth.

It but that's easy, though. That's not a that's not a procedure at

this point. I don't think anything's easy. I'd Oh, that's the easiest part. Okay, we'll see. I

was just glue them to the post or something. I mean, I'll find

out today I was was wondering about that. I mean, because you can't screw them

in now because you can't make their SNAP is like a click,

you know, again, or maybe maybe you do put it I know that just I'm sure there's some secret sauce that I'll find out.

If they snap on you can swap them out with different stuff like you could put I have

requested this. I requested this technology just so I could put it in a real grill or something, you know,

yeah, gold. I mean, you know, swapping it but anyway,

so, Mitch, he's He's so good. Because he listened to the shows too. He listened to no agenda. He listened to Korean the keeper. He listened to the podcast and 2.0 is like a little beyond me. But he says things funny to hear you guys. Yep. And so he's very concerned about the soliciting. And you said Okay, so right now your gums are still a little swollen. So when that goes down, then this listing of starts so he's pre ordering all these temporary bridges to make sure that you know, snap this
one in in case you know, the swishing starts again. So he really cares about he cares about the show.

So this will expand his his user but his user base his customer base to be. He will be he will be the periodontist to the podcast industry. Oh, well, I've

already sent at least 10 people to him. And I have other dentists and periodontists. Now saying actually dentist more saying you know, when someone comes to me, I'm just going to give them a scan just to see what else is going on with them. Because it's oh yeah, this is not well discussed.

Know this, I think this is a burden. This is a burgeoning area of research.

So back to Steven bell. He so in this two week period we talked about, I kind of pitched the idea of how I would like to do music and podcasting where you know, when I play a song, then the value block switches to the value block of the song which presumably would be uploaded to dystopia or wave lake or one of the other hosts and would be submitted into the podcast index and would have its own splits and he did it he implemented he put it into sovereign feeds and
so if you'd like to participate in this test and I would like everyone to do that you don't have to do it now you can go back because we want to do it in like just a minute from now. Please try out curio caster and you can use curio caster on the web on your phone. You don't have to install an app you can connect your get Albie wallet to it's all very simple. And I would like you to test it out. We're gonna play a song and when this song plays now not in the live version, although of course
Stephen Bell says I'm working on that too. Of course he is so it won't work if you're listening live right now. But and even if you are listening live go back later and around 15 minutes check out check out the song What should happen and feel free to boost give a boost to Graham what should happen is 95% of all of that of those streaming value for value payments will go to the remote item which in this case would be the song the
remote song to the splits in in that value block. Did I make that clear?

I'd have no idea what you're talking about. So to let you explain from explain from the beginning of what was so if curious of curio caster I'm just trying to get my bearings straight after I've tried to I've tried to not keep up with a logo and most of what y'all are doing it's okay I can come fresh. Okay, so So this secure Rio Castro obviously eats these tags. Yes, correct. And so it is going to understand what it's seeing when you play later when later someone plays back
this episode. And it is going to be in the feed, there's going to be these new remote. That value time split tags correct. And so the is what curio cast, to my understanding what curio caster is going to be doing is gonna be looking for those timestamps to start. And when that happens,

yeah, when the player hits the timestamp, at that point, anything that the player is sending in a payment, whether it's a streaming per minute payment, or a booster booster gram will now use a different value block, it'll use the value block of that, of that, in this case, Song comm. And it will actually just just to be super cool, it will actually split that and give 95% to that value block, which will then be split amongst its own parameters. I don't know how
many different splits are in there. And then 5% stays with me, mainly because it's my show. And secondly, so I can also track what the what people are sending, but I will only get 5% and the end the 95% that would have gone to my splits. Now go to the remote item.

Okay, so this nut, I got you. So let me the value time split tags, let me just jump over here.

But just just to make a simple whenever I play a song on one of my podcasts now that song, of course has to be known to podcast index, which is easy to do. You know, you can upload your album, whenever I play a song 95% of anything that I would have normally received from people streaming or boosting or booster grams will now go to the owner of the song and however they have their song, their their payments split up.

And this is this is effectuated by a new, this new value time split tag which goes into the value block.

I don't know where it goes, I have no idea what it does. But I'm a podcaster I don't know what it's doing. Right. So I

was doing okay, so there was this value time split tag is a new child item of the podcast value. So it's sort of a it's a sibling of value recipient. So it's in the value tag. And then and then it has a start time parameter, an attribute, a duration attribute and a remote percentage attribute. Right. So that's set to so like it will say like at
start time, X number of seconds. Go get the remote, go get the value block out of this other feed item this other feed episode Yeah, suck it back in, begin using that for a duration of 237 seconds. And then at the end of that duration period flipped back to the standard valuable Correct. Killer Is that cool or what? Sweet.

So So again, I'd like everyone to make sure you have curio caster, you probably got all that set. So when you hear this in in post production, and the as a whole tool set forward and sovereign feeds, so I don't have to do a lot of work and I don't have to copy things manually. I just say okay.

I'm sorry, but this is gonna break so the most. This is the most interesting that we've ever done.

I was thinking the same thing like this will not work in any other podcasts that I'm gonna have be looking at. I'm gonna be getting emails for weeks. Hey, man, dog catcher broke on your show, whatever your

dog catcher is gonna shut his pants.

Alright, so I was thinking, Who can we possibly play that has has the music meet. So it also medium equals music. So the whole set it's official. You know, this actually comes from wave Lake, who we had on the show just a couple of weeks ago when we've talked like three weeks ago. We're talking about this. And it's Joe Martin. So Joe Martin already got into the fountain top 10 At some point because people were just finding his music on fountain. So now yeah,
he's a pioneer. We want to you want to use him as as the pioneer scissor scissor experiment. Now, he has a new album out which is called Empty passenger seat. Now, now Joe is kind of a country guy. And like a lot of country songs and even the kind of the title suggests it is a lot of downer music. Like yeah, I ran over my dog my girlfriend's gone. He literally
has a song and there were some guys begging for money. He's like nah man I got no time for you I got no money for you I gotta go into my office he goes to the office he gets fired you know and then so oh yeah it's so anyway there's there's a couple
songs on the album which are not depressing. So I chose one and so if all goes according to plan by at this point now the value block will have already switched over and that means anything you send in streaming payments or in booster booster gram will go to Joe Martin This is high gravity the first running with scissors and podcasting 2.0
from through the night a shout at us.

Joe Martin gravity high gravity keeps holding me down here on podcasting 2.0 I love doing that for the first time ever smash your champagne bottle please

So if what yeah what's gonna happen is you're gonna be getting you're gonna get a message a bunch of messages tonight was there no show today

didn't show up in my it doesn't show up in my podcast. What happened?

Yeah, or or the other alternative is that you're everybody's gonna be fine up until the moment that the music starts and then all the apps crash.

Thank you very much, Steven B for putting that together and I can't wait to see how it works out. I mean this we all agree This is what this show was for running with scissors.

This is this is our town records that we need scissor insurance. Yeah, I agree with him. Yeah, we totally do. What so what and Tim, tell me what you just did, though. So you in so in sovereign feeds, when you started the song, did you hit the sync button? Oh,

no, no, I mean, that's. So Stephen B put together a whole system that this is how you do it. And like, that's not how I'm going to do it. Because there's no way I mean, when I'm when I'm, when I'm getting ready, I'm getting ready to start the song. And I want to, you know, and I'm ready to start, I'm not gonna be hitting five buttons at the same time. So it's a little extra work for me with not much in post, when I have everything set up. There's a tab in sovereign
feeds on second. And this top tab is value time split. And then I'll go in and I'll look for empty passenger seat. And then below, it'll, you can do pre production or post production. And below, it'll, it'll show the link to Episode audio, which I'll have already up there. Just before I publish, I've already uploaded the audio. And then there's a little player
and I'll go to you know, was it about 20 minutes or so. And then the minute I hit that song, that's when I'll set a mark and then and then that'll automatically, if all goes well put the value time split at that spot, and then I'll go to the end. And then I'll click another button. And that's how it you know, it's almost like doing a chapter basically.

Okay, so you, the way you would do that is you would mark it in his Hindenburg. And then No, no, no, no,

no, I there's a little player. I just hit the player in sovereign feeds.

Oh, you're just listening back. So you kind of know where that Yeah. Okay, and I'm thinking of

everyone was trying to make it real easy. And it makes it real hard. Because I'm What about

live though, when that happens, has that has what's your workflow? I

have no idea what Steven B is going to do for that. Now, in that case, I can imagine I would have to hit that and hit something else. Which will suck, but we'll figure it out. Doesn't matter. I mean, so maybe if it's as simple as Okay, here's the three songs I'm going to play in this episode, right? And that little interface, and I start the song and all I have to do I pre loaded the songs. I just hit a little button, and then it's good to go. And that might work. We'll figure it out.
Yeah, let's get this. Let's let's break this part first. Oh, it's already broken. It's already working break anything else. I'd like to bring our guest in who has been patiently waiting and listening to all this nonsense that we've been spewing, but he is a guy who lives on the bleeding edge of running with scissors himself. We love him. You know him from the pod news weekly review. You know him from river radio. You might know him from the army. You might know him from
Microsoft from Netscape. You know, maybe he's related to you. I don't know. But he's the CEO, pod fans, ladies and gentlemen, say hello to Sam says, hey, hey,

wow. My third cousin. Yeah.
We're all Indians. Were all related. Y'all

Brahmins all of you. We are. That's it?
That's it. Everything is a little gene

oncology, that you I mean, yeah, you have a pod fans is just one is basically just one huge pair of scissors, right?
Oh, completely. I just listened to your show. And then I now have to go away and fix remote items. Thanks.

Well, I will say, you know, I was listening to the show last week, and all I heard was, Oh, that's too hard. I'm not gonna do that. What curry What is he thinking about?
Yeah, well, that's true. I mean, literally, I've just listened to that. And I'm with Dave. I mean, really? How's that going to be implemented? So over to Steven B. And then when he's fixed it, I'll follow. Yeah, I think that's the best way. Yeah.

I mean, I also have no idea how he makes all this work. And we're just gonna presume that it did work at least Securio Kassar and we'll see how that went. But Sam, it's so nice to have you on that. We have lots of talk about particularly about pod fans. I do want everyone to know that. Sam has a lot of depth. So Sam, and I didn't realize I just sighs me I was shallow Indian dude. But when when I heard you on mere mortals podcast was Kyron. To you got quite a life. You've been around?
Well, I mean, I'm the same age as you, Adam. And you know, you know, we've had a life Haven't we both of us?

Yeah. No, you started in the army, I believe. Yeah, I
straight out of school went into Sandhurst, which is the Military Academy, I suppose the equivalent of West Point. And yeah, I did that because I didn't really know what else to do. I like just running. I was like the Forrest Gump of life and I just ran around fields and jumping out of planes. That's what I did.

Did you do actual parachuting and stuff?

we'd be able to talk about. So

beyond the bullshit Sam edit, I heard as an edit right there. What did he say? What did he say that got taken out?
He said, I can't call today do this. Yeah, they don't not gonna do value for value at all. They will never do because it destroys their current business is the innovators dilemma, they currently have an advertising play. That's all they're focused on, they will never support value for value

in and that is, and that leads into my second clip, which is not a question but just I just felt, actually I felt bad for for Chris, because I know he's a technology guy. And I kind of feel bad for us. Because when we when you ask about some of the some of the basic tags that we've been that we've had implemented for, you know, two years now, they really can't do them. It's 40 seconds. So I'll just play this,

I mentioned the transcript tag being difficult to implement in RSS feeds. Another example is chapters where we do support 83 V two chapters with dynamic audio. But it would be impossible for us to implement that at the feed level, because we don't have any idea at the time that the feed is generated, where those timestamps are going to be. Right. So I think that input can come later. From my perspective. I don't know if that answers your question. But we're
excited. Like we are absolutely watching and aware of the work that's going on, it's moving at a pace that I think is really exciting. And I don't want to slow it.

So I'm bummed out about that, you know, so because here's advertising, screwing everything up. And it's literally because of the dynamically inserted ads that they and their system, I guess, that they can't do this is a bummer.
Well, I mean, they should talk to Buzzsprout. Really, because Buzzsprout have managed to do dynamic ad insertion and also get chapter Yeah, working? Yeah. It's technically possible. They just aren't doing it. And I don't know why they're not doing well.

I think I understand why, as I think I understand why it's because the most of Buzzsprout did it in house. Yeah, they did it in house they had they get to design it the way they exactly the way that it needed to be in order for everything to work correctly. All their all their dynamic ad insertion happens on their own system. And then but most of these other hosting companies that are doing Dai, they
outsource that to a third party. So they just send the audio to the third party has the DI put in in in their site, and then they and then they get it back.
So I mean, a cos big enough to do it in house say,

Oh, they're totally they're totally and but here's here's where the here's where the rubber meets the road, though I think it's not, it's not that they can't work with or third party is that I think the DI the cost of di the margin is so thin on it. They don't want they want to spend as little time as they want this thing built and done so that they don't ever have to see it again. The more time they spend tweaking this and making it work better. They lose money.

Yeah, I agree. And also, I learned on that same episode of which was this week's episode of pod news weekly review. I learned YouTube podcast is a flop Well, duh. But I also learned that programmatic ads are basically inferior to host read ads, and there's no money is sucks. There's no margin and everyone's moving away from it
completely. Look, we all three and everyone else who's listening know that this is just a time sink between programmatic ads and advertising just being removed. I often say, you know, if you had Dark Side of the Moon, you wouldn't suddenly have an ad halfway through Pink Floyd.

It would be very funny. To go more flipping out over that. Yeah, exactly. And while you're a fan of the I'm sorry, Dave, go ahead.

No, I was just gonna say that. I think the way that you phrase that is right. I think this is like a, we're in a strange Limbo zone. I think what ultimately happens is Alvin Brooks sent me an email this this week, and he said, Hey, I just wanted to draw your attention to this boost we got. And so I went and listened to that clip on the bus cast. And it was this podcaster had written into them and said,
hey, you know, amazing, wasn't it? Yeah, yeah. She said,

I just wish my biggest regret is I wish I had done subscriptions earlier, so that I could start getting money, value for value thing going earlier with my audience so that I was not so dependent on advertising. And I think that that's that's really what ultimately this comes down to is where we're going. This is an interim period, where advertising still sort of, you know, still pays the bills for
the top one. percent or less of podcasting, but ultimately these smaller niche markets, niche market podcasts, they're just going to, I mean, like this one, this is as bad as niche as you could possibly get this is, this is three levels of niche. And you have those people starting out those types of podcasts, I think from they're just going to go to a value for value or
subscription or some direct to audience support from day one. I mean, I just I think, I think the whole the term podcast industrial complex is so accurate on so many levels. Because it it really is there's this entire thing out there that is working on advertising. And then there's the other 98% of podcasting. That's just not applicable,

did you? Since you brought it up, we put the the adjustment to value for VAT, the value block width equals auto for for the periodic payments. Have we put that in yet?

Yep. So I made three I made three tweaks to the to the to V Spec this past week, two weeks of lost track of time says we missed a show. Yeah. Yeah. So there's now an auto. So yes, Stream Boost in auto. And I want to clarify on the auto says this, this is applicable to pod fans, all this stuff is going to clarify on the auto, you know, so take a take an app like pod fans, it's well, it's it's a progressive, it's a progressive web app rights and yep, correct. Okay, yeah. So so you're gonna
have it's essentially a web experience. So you're not going to have a bag of background process that's able to run, perhaps you will, if you have a service worker on and it's installed as a PWA on a mobile device, but that's going to be heavily restricted by though s it regardless. So your take your baseline level of something, just you're going to the website to, to play with POD fans, if you set up an auto, so this, this is in the payment, if you say okay, I want to support.
Essentially, this is a subscription. I want to support pod news weekly review with 20,000 20,000 SATs a month. And so the app at that point says okay, every, whatever day of the month, fifth day for the 15th of each month, I'm going to send 20,000 SAS to pod news weekly review. Well, that in an ideal environment, that would be sent automatically in the background for an app like pod fans, or POF, as you know, actually may not be the best exam because y'all do have a back end. So
take something that doesn't have a back end. That's just purely like cast thematic, that's a better example. Cast thematic cosmetic has no back end, every installed app is its own island. So in that regard, Casta medics not going to be able to sort of reliably wake up in send a payment, it might be able to, but you can't depend on it. So really, the spec is it's auto, but it allows flexibility for to basically just say, hey, app, do
the best you can to send this payment on this time. So you know, if if it ends up that you can't send it until just the next time the app is open, that's fine. Just do the math and send it but you just want to send it as often as you can. So I wanted to make sure that people understood that that auto payment is not, it's not some sort of some sort of required thing where you have to send it at any exact point in time. It's more like the streaming spec.

Yeah, so it's like everything we do, it might might not work.

It might. It's, it's maybe not that squishy. But it's more like, you know how with the streaming thing, if you get in the elevator and you lose connection, the app will just stack the payments up, right? And the next time that it gets a connection, that's that's this sort of thing. Does that make sense?

Yeah. And so thank you. Has everyone implemented it yet?
Can I can I change that slightly we have. So we've done it slightly differently. So you know, I've sent you emails in the background, and we value every show in every episode, with a default 100 SATs per minute streaming until the host claims it when they claim it they can change that value, but let's assume they haven't claimed it so we create virtual
wallets. Now we've created the ability that when you become a fan important, which is just basically subscribe, you in your settings have an option you can instead of a budget of, I'm going to only spend 100,000 SATs this month. That's all I want to spend on my listening. But you can flick a switch between
streaming and supported. And when you click it to support it any time any show that you've become a fan of the drops in new episode, we will automatically pay the value of that full episode to the host.

I love this stuff. I think that you know, all of that is good. But you're you're doing a whole you're got you've gone way beyond what anyone's ever maybe should backup and explain what you're doing. Because you have a totally different model using the same elements.
Yeah, so we've taken what you guys have given us, which has value for value. And we've said, Look, we fully support that. So we've got three levels. So we said, look, every show that we ingest into our curated database has to have a default value. And that default value is 100 minutes set by me. And I can change that if I want you and Dave could claim podcasting index to Dotto, and you could go in and you can set your own value for whatever you want. That's great. And you set
it to 201,010 sets per minute, whatever you want to do. The user at the end still has that final say so they can go in and they can say I love what Adam and Dave have set as a value. But I'm going to change that to higher or lower or zero even they can say I don't want to pay you anything. So you've got that full flexibility. But as I said, with supported, it's the ability for the user to go into their own profile and say, Look, I want to actually pay whatever David Adams set as the value and
the way we work out that value. Is it 100 SATs per minute times the time now with this live show that we're looking we're currently on now. You Adam have set the time for two hours. Yeah, we know that in the lit tag, it's two hours, times 100 sites per minute. So I'm literally looking at pod vana as I'm playing it in the background and streaming it. And I'm seeing the value dropping as I listened in live, because I'm I'm consuming right so I've consumed 39 minutes so far. And I'm
literally going through it. Now if I set that to support it, what would happen would be it would say Adams set that for two hours times the time, right? Pay that full 12,000 SATs straight out the bat, I wouldn't even have to worry about it. And then the value that I'm got in front of me on my dashboard is set to zero as a user, because I've already paid that shows. Oh, okay, interesting. So, and then when I replay it, I don't pay again, is set to zero. So I've I've consumed the value by
saying yeah, Adam, Dave, I love you. And if I didn't even listen to the show, I've paid for it. But if I do then want to go back and listen to it. Guess what? I've already paid or just listened for zero.

Okay, so that's yeah, that is a different take. So you instead of saying I'm gonna support, that's an EP, that's like a call. That's like an Yeah, and like an output based based payment where you're saying, I'm going to support you. But I'm only going to support you when you give me
content. Like yeah, when you evaluate Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not gonna say I'm not just gonna send you payments, regardless of the time of what you put out, or if you go on hiatus for six months, I've got to go remember to unsubscribe, I can just, I'm just gonna say okay, every time I listen to you guys, um, you know, I'm willing to give you 20 bucks or 10 bucks. You can say, Okay, well, what is that in SATs? Well, then I'm just going to put that every time an episode drops, boom, you get it?
Yeah, that's an interesting idea. I like that. Yeah.

So. So where are you at now? Exactly. With pod fans, because you've you've announced pod fans a lot of times. Yep. And I tried to claim Well, I had I tried to log in and something went wrong. You said no, no, we're resetting that. So just tell me where you're at, because I kind of want to play around with it.
So what we've we did this week was we've put a complete onboarding gamification help system. So we realize that what we've developed is something quite complex to the average user. So you land on it, and it's like, shit, where do I go? How do I get to whatever I want to do? So what we've done is because we've got a gamification in the system anyway, every screen you land on, so you, like login, claim
your wallet. Guess what? You've earned a couple of 1000 SATs now do these three tasks, you answer more on every page you go to. It's there simply to teach you what's on that page and how to use it while earning SATs. So I was hoping today to catch you before the show and actually get you both to claim your show. And then you would have seen it for yourself.

We're way, way too busy. Yeah. We have much bigger meetings going on.
But to answer your question that and directly Yeah, we are ready as of Monday to go live. We are fully baked. So we added ice to coffee to cool future features this week that you might love. One is CO listening. And this is, again with live is going to be brilliant. So what happens is, I might if when Adam and Dave join, I might look at Adams profile, it says he's listening to the podcast in Tudor Osho. I click on a button right next to what it says he's listened to.
And I jumped to exactly the same time.

Yeah, party listening. Sure.
And then on the episode page, it then shows my avatar appear next to your avatar. So you then suddenly see that I've just joined with you. And we're listening at the same point. And then we could start boosting together we start commenting, we have a threaded conversation, whatever we want to do. I think that's illegal in

America boosting, I think

only in Utah, some
laws against that. So that was one of the things we added this week. And then the other one was on the homepage. We've now we had default carousel. So in your mind, if you think of Netflix and these carousels of podcasts or films Netflix case, they were all static in the sense that we would only we would pre program what you were looking at in a carousel so it might be recently added new. Then the five top
Apple categories like comedy, thriller, whatever. So now in your settings, you can go and choose any category you like. And then the homepage just converts to that category for whatever you wanted to look at.

And what is the URL Sam for everybody?
Pod fans.fm

Die expensive. swanky. We can't We can't afford the dot FM's man, those things are expensive. What a racket that guy's got going on. Some dude who's in the radio business, he was really smart. And it's like, it's really it's literally like a couple 100 bucks a year, I think, isn't it?

That much. It's like 100
bucks. And you remember when we had a long conversation last year

about doing this? Yeah, about doing this
dot pod fat podcast,

where we talked about about doing that. And then it turns out, you know, you got to have several million dollars to show that you're serious. And you got to be up to set all this stuff up like and Exactly. And you know, do we really want to make that our business? Success? It sounds boring.

So the let me throw this. I'm trying to find stuff that you have not because you're you're basically you're the you're this, you're the Steven B of A pod fans, because you're as soon as we

wait, wait, wait, listen to this. Dave, stop. What I'm looking at the homepage. were quoted on this thing.
Yeah, you Oh, good. Well, I've

heard Dave Jones the pod sage podcast index ready. Want to hear what you said. Now I want to I don't remember what I said. I was blown away when I away. I was blown away when I saw the pod fans for the pod fans for the first time. It literally had every feature we've been working on for two years wrapped up into a beautiful, beautifully done UI. I can't wait to see it hit the market. Nice to say that. All
right. Let me see what I said. Adam curry the pod father podcast index, pod fans brings together the most exciting elements of podcasting 2.0 and gamifies. The V four v Community System, I could not have wished for a better experience for this next generation of podcast experiences.

We sound good I want you to do

really good on this. All right.

It's like I have a copy editors.
Can I say it didn't go through chat GBT that was

but oh man. Did you guys hear? Do you hear new media show that on Wednesday? Or Thursday?
I haven't had that doing an AI test out like

I just want to. So Todd, I love Todd Cochran for this. He's like, somehow we I'm gonna get chat GPT two word for
podcasting come hell or high water. And he's literally like, now if we could just have a thing that sets a marker so that the chat GPT will know that that's where you summarize a chapter I'm like, taught it's supposed to be artificial intelligence that you shouldn't have to be setting chapter markers and little blips in the thing or or being Hindenburg or road caster so that Chad GPT knows it should know how to do
that. It can't because it's bullshit. Chad, Dred Scott, you know, he's our intelligence guy was

not a knowledge model.

Exactly. He you know, we have a human being doing this with great pleasure. We pay him 5% of all he has a split for five bucks. I have all my podcasts. And that's a beautiful system. People are trying to shoehorn Chad GPT into everything and it's so inappropriate.

And just wait for the whole thing and wait for this whole large language model thing to just fall apart and go away even saying

large language model.

That's all because that's all it is. That's what it is Google barf. That's all it is. It's just it's just a language model it like it doesn't people are trying to use it for for things that is it only understands. I hate even using the term understands. I say, thank you. It's only capable of manipulating language. That's what it's created for it. We I think I don't blame people because we as humans want to anthropomorphize everything. I just did it. I
just said understand. Yeah, yeah, we can. That's the way we'll Yeah, that's the way we function that's like our basic, some of our most basic wiring is to do that. Yeah. And but that it's, if you step back for a second, this is, this is a language manipulation system. That's what it does it, it parses language, and it puts out and it outputs language. Anything else that you attribute to this thing? is not possible. Anything that you can't express clearly with language isn't
possible. And so much of this is like, where where you're going to insert something? I don't know. I mean, you just you just go do I mean, where you're gonna have to go put the, you're gonna have to go put the marker back in for, for when the music starts? Well, we've already admitted me and Alex already tried to AI a bunch of music out of the index. And the success rate was low, low. It was totally 5050. So and that's not language, chat. GPT is not going to do it. Just the whole thing.
And the other thing is annoying. So I

didn't mean i Yes, I didn't mean to spin you up. I'm sorry, Sam, what is the claim? You're off? I want to claim it.
So interesting conversation.

Can I revise my quote,
works today. So you go in the claim, you click it, and it will look at your email in the RSS, and it will then do a conversation with you based on email. So verifying your email. And of course, we now know, of course, we podcast TX, T, everyone's taking out their emails for Tom Rossi. And I've been working on an O auth. solution. We tested it last
week. So the idea is that you click a claim. So in the podcast RSS we're proposing, I think you may have seen this in the GitHub, that there's a whether it's going to be called podcast, verify or authorize or something no one knows right now, but there'll be a tag. But fundamentally Buzzsprout, or the RSS provider will put a URL which has an authentication URL. So when you click Claim in pod fans, it will automatically go to that URL on Buzzsprout. For example, if you're not logged
in, you log in, but if you are logged in, it'll go to that. And then there'll be a token that comes back to us go and get that is exactly who that person was, but perhaps verified it. And we then give you a verified from a claim situation. And then you get access to the backend admin for your podcast, to go and change the length staff go and change any of the RSS fields, whatever you want to do. So we're trying to make it like an
O auth. Light, we tested it, it's it's working, as a couple of people who've come back with a really good, added a couple of security issues. So Tom and I are working on that next week, fingers crossed, if that all goes through, we'll implement it just like we did pod roll pretty quickly, then anyone else can rip it apart, or we'll change it. And so yeah, running with scissors, basically. But we'll try very quickly to get
something working and see what comes back. And then if people want to change it, update it, we'll change it as the community asks us to do.

Okay, so that is that have been submitted to and don't think I've seen that in the discussions.
Yeah, now it's in there. So Tom submitted the idea originally. And then Tom and I jumped on a call. We worked through the back and forth with it. And then my developer is now going to send the token over. So yeah, there's a couple of minor things we're still doing. But next week,

so can I claim on my podcast?
Yeah, you can now because if you are, if your email still in your RSS, I could look but you know, if you're still in there, you can do this. Yeah. And then I'll go into this like

fans.fm/scissor So

my, my, my email address has already been taken.

Well, is that oh, that's because you've been in there before? Right? Yeah, we had temporary accounts. Yeah, but
you can now put Forgot My Password and we'll we'll fix that. Okay.

I don't want to say what it's doing. User not found, or I'm not found. I'm lost. Don't worry about it, Sam. Don't worry about it. We'll do it. We'll do it live. Hey, I see that you have But I think I know the answers. But you I see you have zaps here as well. So you this is a noster thing that you've put here. How does that work?
So, initially, we basically said that zap is a like we said, it's like 10 SATs. It's just a very simple, lightweight example. We have booths, we have zaps. Let's just support it. And now what we've done with OB we all be enabled the N pub automatically within the OB API. So now when everyone's profile, we're pulling your M Pub across. And so next step for us is then we can send the ZAP stays within the system currently now so if I like your show, or zap your
show, you will get 10s 10 sets. That's just a very lightweight boost without a comment as how I see it. But is

that does that go back out? To the to the nostril? Rila? Is that a nostril? Is that just internal?
That's internal only now

adheres to the value block?

Yes.

Slide definitely you so I'd say our, our podcast, Dave is worth 12,000 SATs.

The US for this?

That's a to two pounds 80.

That's disappointing. Well, we're worth at least a fiver I thought

I thought we were five quid will be proper weight for us. Wow.

So this, this may, I don't know if you saw this, Sam is did this other addition to the to V, which is the signature field. Now it didn't say that. Okay, so the signature field in this may help you with your noster stuff is if you have a seat, so they're inside the TLV record, when the with each payment is a sender underscore ID field. And that thing has always just been whatever you it's freeform text, it doesn't, it doesn't adhere to anything, it can just be made up. I mean,
people can pretend to be other people. I mean, there's it's just a handle. And so the various apps use that in their own ways. So like you with fountain. Oscar uses the you know, his internal user ID for that field. And you know, everybody uses their own thing. Well, I added this aggregate added a signature field to the to the record, which will, which will give you some way to do a verification on the sender ID. So in your in, in your system, you could in that Sender ID
field, you could include nostre in pub. And then the signature field would be a SIG would be the signature of the TLV signed with the private key with the nostril private key. So I use your verification.
Because that's the challenge. We haven't looked at it. But we were looking at the fact that how do you make a right to a Nasri Lake without the private key. But if you've got a signature where we can hold that, or it can be a dynamically inserted and that that fix.

This is really this is really built like it's beautiful, 2.0 Playground kind of the way I see it. I'm seeing a lot of cool things for what I can see without logging in. I like the iPad, like the little it shows me plays, how many booths how many clips have been made? It really got me Did you just implement every single tag?
We have? Yeah, as much as we could.

This is so cool. The end, you got the trailer, which we don't have pod roll, which you don't have yet
negative sites as well. So if you look at the trailer, Adam, it'll say you earn from listening to a trailer, we believe that your time and attention adds value. And so you should be paid to listen to a trailer rather than

power. How are you going to make money off of this? Are you getting a percentage of every every stream? Is that how it works? Yeah,
yeah, we say we take a 10% fee. And then we are then one cents going back to the podcast in depth. Thank you. And then there are other one percents going to other hosting companies that we've done deal to it. Yeah.

Oh, you've done deals with hosting companies do tell.
So the the goal for us is that, let's say rss.com, which supports the value for value tag, okay? They've got customers already. Now, they might recommend pod vans as an app within their CO marketing. And if a customer then joins from rss.com We can track it. And we can then give them a 1% split of any of the value that that customer has generated.

Oh man, I love you for that, Sam that is that makes so much sense. This is exactly how I think Dave and I always envisioned the ecosystem. You know, for everybody, everybody participate paid in the value sounds like so much sense. I like it. I like your logo to thank. Yeah, logos are hard.

Yeah.
You'll see, again, things that are in the pipeline. So we already have, we already have music within the platform. We already have video support within the platform. And I've just done a deal with Penguin Books to add books to the plot.

You crazy fucker. You Nice. Yeah. So, so coming.

Videos. Great to hear your videos. Great to hear because I know Alex is back working on the peer tube support for RSS. Actually, we

got a we got a question here. We got a couple of pre boosts before the show for you, Sam Martin Linda's kg with a row a duck, Sam. So I think it'd be possible to add video material to pod fans in the future. And what is your take on peer tube?
So peer tube is great. I don't have an issue with it. But I don't really I'm not. I'm agnostic to that. What I'm more concerned with is does it support the alternative enclosure tag? And if it does, then whatever you tell me within the end alternative enclosure tag is what I will do. Better it goes back.

And dovie das 23,000 SATs. Sam, how much longer will I have to be on the pod fans waitlist I want to boost?
I guess look, I'll say this very clearly. Oscar is brilliant. You know, the guys who are building stuff out there are brilliant the guys at cura Casa Steven, you know, everyone who's doing stuff, I could go half baked. And that's what we could have done. But David and Adam, if you're looking at it, now you'll see that we've got the help screens coming up,
which is gamified. And the reason we're doing that is because again, we just want to make sure that the experience when you go in is first class when you come to do what we're doing. So I'd rather wait a few more weeks and get it right then have 50 people tell me that, you know, that doesn't work. This doesn't work and

build some screens and documentation is that though it's just it's just it's so necessary, but it is so mind numbing and hard work. It's just tedious work.

Is this? Just all you Sam Southie? Or do you have the Indian finance cabal behind you? Which I've taken money from the Indian finance Cabal? I love them. They're very honest with you. Very, very, like brutally honest.
But we still stuff saying Uncle G at the beginning. We're all related. But yeah, no, I haven't. I haven't. I've been very lucky. I've got a small amount of funding that we got given on a licensing deal to somebody's licensing my platform for a music version of pod vans, Pure Music version. You might know them. Adam, Davao Canfield,

the DJ? Oh, yeah, of course. Of course. Yeah. So
he's licensed the platform from us to go and create a version for pure house.

Oh, fantastic. What a great idea. Yeah. It makes sense. Because the whole thing It feels kind of like a mixer. Yeah, it was like, this is all this stuff that you can do. And there's knobs and buttons and numbers that change. It just feels fun.
Yeah. So we haven't we are in the middle of a funding round ourselves. And that funding round is really, I think I've said it before in the past is more to do with marketing, the cost of building the platform, me and my developer are basically not taking any money. We're very happy not taking any money. And we just work every day on this. Literally every day we spend. And it's been nine months of you know, pleasure and pain. But you know, it we've got here where we are?

Well, as as, as I always say to any of our developers, if there's any way I can assist in helping you fundraise, I'm happy to talk to any investors. You know, I would like to think that some of my chats I had with people helped Oscar and some other people. I did that with the with some people from I think breeze, I mean, whatever it's like, it's great if Uncle G needs to talk to somebody, like the guy that has the quote at the bottom of your page here. Happy to talk to him about it. Thank you,

you can let me ask you this, Sam, because I know fountain did this. And I think there's some other outfits that just recently did this. That I can't remember but it seems like it's kind of becoming a big thing too. Just to not necessarily go to a VC for seed money substance to do do like oh
yeah, subsidy to do like a crowdsourcing. investment round where you know, everybody, where you basically just opening you know, you open the door to small to small investors who ever wants to go in would y'all ever do something like that?
I'd love to. I just, you know, again, it's how many spinning plates can I hold together really? And to organize that, you know, There's a whole bunch of services in the UK, for example, that do that, like Crowdcube, that you could go to and do that. Or I could go to the podcast community and try and do that. But right now, our burn rates so little, and

we bless you, bless you.
I literally have got enough money for two and a half years in the bank right now. So I really don't want to go out and do the begging bowl. Yeah, right now, there will be a time when I need to go back into the pool. And the reason we're doing it now is we're in a great position, we're not requiring money, the worst time to go and find money is when you need money, because then they actually,

as the rules of business, it's one don't run out of money, too, don't negotiate against yourself, three, when you don't want to do it, raise the price. That's all I need to know. That's your business rules right there.
So we're just going out and playing, you know, Cinderella, we're just going to fight go and see you know, how many people we want to talk to in that market, and see what they value us and see what they think of us. And it's fun. It's fun to do,

I think listening to you is helpful to a lot of developers, because a lot of many developers do because you understand you understand development and you but you've also been in just in the business, in business business for you know, for many years. So I think just just listening to the way that you're laying things out is probably helpful for a lot for a lot of small developers who just don't understand the landscape. They don't know how to do this kind
of stuff. They don't know how to go out and try to find investors if they need some money. I think this is all very helpful just to hear you kind of rundown the way you're the way that you're going through the process. You don't we don't get that very much.
One of the first questions is I often get because I help other startups. Now, how do I value myself? You know, what's the valuation on this business, and half the times, the first crazy value that you put out the market is is a finger in the air. But the first investor who sort of agrees with your mind valuation sets the bar. And once that bar set, then
every other investor has to come in at that bar level. And then just simply go right now I've added more value and it you know, going back to what you and Adam have developed its value for value, I've created value. That's what I'm setting it out. Do you agree with me? Yes or no? Let's negotiate. Now I've added
more value. Let's go to the next level. And you just keep negotiating up until you've got you know, if you don't agree with the value that someone offers you just walk away, just walk away from them.

Well, since you are also in the news business, maybe we can talk about a couple things that we are you laughing at that? You are you in the news business? There? Well, actually, first, here's a question for you. Have you seen the MK Ultra chat that David's been working on that we tested out I think last week or two weeks ago? That is like Nastar chat. Dave, do we have a room for this? For this episode? Or? Yes? Run? Oh,

it's running right now.
It is all the chat room because me and Dave have spoken in the background. Dave? You sent me the link to it. Is that the Gnostic link? Is that the chat room? I

think so. Yeah. Yeah, that's it. That's what we're talking. Yeah, that's what I think that's what I sent you.
Yeah, you did you get

something that would fit within my guess if it fits running? What would that fit within the
completely? Okay.

That's right. Where's this thing? I don't see this link, Dave.

So that was I put it on up. I guess an index does social before. Let me 30 minutes before we started.

Oh, okay. It's earlier kind of kind of. Yeah.
So going back to what we said about five minutes ago, getting the M Pub automatically from the LP API was critical. Because before that, we had to rely on the user to copy and paste their M Pub across. And that was never going to happen. So once we've got it automatically, we can then again, and I'll look at this signature thing data that you've put together. But it allows us to do not only share, but also chat, and anything else we want to put to relate. But we haven't got there yet.

Let me let me throw the last piece of that button. And by the way, that that signature that it gives in the in the documentation, it gives an example of how to do it with noster. But it's agnostic to whatever the user identification system is. So you could it can be nostru, or it can be other stuff. It doesn't it doesn't matter. It's flexible. So then, but the last thing that I added this last couple of weeks is
reply fields. So there's three fields. There's reply underscore, address, reply underscore custom key and reply underscore custom value. So you can you can now put those into the payment when you send it and then this is optional, of course, like everything else and then that way when you receive the boost, I can boost you back. So it can be a two way street now. So we finally hit we finally have a way to do boost backs that are across platform. Cool.
That's cool. Now that's very cool, because in inside of pop bands, we have a threaded conversation with boosts, but we don't have an external.

Is that going to be in helipad? Dave? You're going to update?

Yes, yes, it will be it will be in helipad. So if I if I send you a boost from, yeah, what would be great is if, if, if you boost somebody boosts me from pod fans, you know, then I can receive that boost back in my Alby or whatever, you know what, wherever it came from, I can get that back. Yeah.

Nice. Cool. had a chat with the CEO of start nine this week. Matt, and Matt Hill, Matt Hall, Matt Hill, Matt. And those guys, they're serious to know that they basically are building Umbral, the way it should have been built. If that makes any sense. They're building they built an OS, not just Docker containers that communicate together. And holy crap, that thing looks good. They really want to make it so that jeans jeans mom rest, her soul would be able to set it up.

Start nine sovereign computing is what this says. Yeah.

So they, you can build one yourself, but they're, they think they're gonna they even have a purism version. You know, so complete sovereign hardware. They don't have as many apps but that's because they, you know, they have it's an OS, they really integrate these things tightly. Then he said, he's gonna send me a unit to test. Man, it looks so cool. And he was like, Hey, how do we, how do we get pod ping on here? How do we get? Can we get pieces of the index on here? How do we
get Pelle pad on here? How do we get IPFS podcasting on here? I'm I don't know. Send me one. Let's see what we can to

tell him to send me one. I'll put it on there. I'm a shameless whore. I just want free stuff. Yeah, okay.

I will. I had to do a whole hour call with a man you don't just get the get the stuff for free. You got to do a call.

You do our call. And I get that that's the way this works.

The other thing we probably talked about briefly, Sam, have you gotten on blue sky yet?
No. And until I want to know, until I can.

Well, John Spurlock is creaming over this thing. I mean, he can't stop boosting about it. Like all blue sky. Oh, blue skies, so great. And and I have to say this an exodus from Mastodon mainly. But we call this journalist because they have quote, tweet, oh, I can quote tweet now I matter. And but what? What's lost in all of the noise is, is kind of noster done professional. I mean, David, you looked at it, right?

Yeah, it's no, the protocol is solid. I mean, it's, it's, it's it's beautiful. The protocol for feta. I've got this, I got this idea that hit me over the last couple of weeks. It seems like, and I don't know if this is already a thing, that by the time a thing is perfected. That's about the time that it's already hit. It's the apex, and it's on the wane. So this is what this feels like. It feels like we've we reached
peak social media two years ago. And now blue sky has come in and made a beautiful protocol that actually absolutely does Federation correctly. Yeah. And, and nobody's gonna use it. And I don't think it will be, I don't think anybody's going to run a server.
Exciting. So how you can say it's federated, but the whole thing is not federated. So

why not? Yeah. It's supposed to be right.

It feels like as hard as it is. And as, as expensive as it is to run a nostre relay, which is not cheap. The blue sky is gonna be even worse. I don't see people running relays for that, or servers or No,

I mean, I see organizations running this. I can see the New York Times running, you know, their, their own server for their journalists. It really felt like a journalist thing. In fact, you and I were talking about this, like, have we hit peak social media? Yeah, everyone just sick of this crap at this point?
Pretty much, I think. I mean, I hardly do it now. Because I mean, it's a broadcast medium. There's no social. That is a one way communication. 90% Yeah.

Yeah, I think it's totally peak. Peak social media. Like my first response to Blue Sky was I mean, because I don't, I've already got seriously I've got I've got texting, Telegram teams, podcast into you know, Mastodon emails to check. We

should probably tell everybody what we did. We made a pact

Oh yes we got a man will be here Monday

minus coming tracking one minus is that the ninth is that Monday eighth we we bought light phones together when

we did when we finally got it to accept a credit card is not you know doesn't make you feel good about your purchase? No,

I think we might have ordered eight I'm not sure just because it wasn't going through try it again. Try it again. Try it again.

It also but it Do you know the light phone? Sam? No, no, no ideally, it's the light phone.com It's like an E Ink screen telephone with like hardly anything. There's no social media is basically just texting what

has a text with a QWERTY keyboard on the on the E Ink screen you can call we have a calendar, you have an alarm and you have podcast client, which is cool. And directions that says directions I don't know exactly what that means but has directions and that's it. Note no images. You can do group tags but you won't get images and as a hotspot which of course means you're going to have a another device if you need to do something else. I'm kind of excited about it.

Me too. My My plan is to the iPhone is going to live on the bedside table and never move. Well, I'll use it for a toilet scroller and

a toilet scroller. Yeah, nice show title. scroller. Nice.

Yeah. I'll use it for a toilet scroller and like I'm getting alerts from you know from the day job when the server's
Dave you've got to get a toilet holder then for a holder for the

holster on the wall doing exactly. Suction pad that's a phone nobody will ever touch that's yes. But then But then I never the goal is never leave the house with the with that device only leave the house with the light phone.

Yeah, I'm gonna do that. I like it. You know, I like the idea a lot because all the stuff I'm doing like i Why am I even doing this? Why am I doing this right now?
This sounds like a Kindle with a phone.

Yes. Yes. Sounds like yeah, look in a podcast player.

Yeah, well the pocket Although who knows. You know, just imagine the value block going through that thing though. phones can melt.

Pod fans on the light phone. II E an E Ink pod fans. Mostafa would lose his mind.

Now. He would. And I think it's I think this is what we should give kids you get your kids you get a light phone. You got kids, right? You got one. You got one kid fan. Sam, do your tooth. So you give your kid a light phone, a laptop laptop and the kid has installed Linux Mint on it themselves. You give them an umbrella. Or you set up an ombre you set up the umbrella with the kid a you give them a ham radio to meter a handheld
and you take the test together. And then you a library card, a dog and an AR 15 night and then you're gonna have a good kid
lots of parts.

Oh, please. Oh, please. Oh, please. You know,

I hear you, Texas.

I gotta say Sam. I love you, Sam. It stopped tweeting about American politics. All right. We don't we don't bitch about your stupid King and your coronation.
Please do because I can't stand

I can't believe I can't believe that you stood the 2023 and you're all gonna watch this guy in a golden carriage go down the
nails tomorrow. Anything but watching the bloody car. Oh,

my goodness. I met I met the Queen. You know, before she died. I went to Buckingham Palace. It was that was I was pretty cool. Actually.
Have you got a gong? Have you got a little MBE? Or oh, no,

no, no, no, no, no, nothing like that. But I do get to you know, shake her hand. And, and I say I'm going to look in her eyes. And you know what I saw? Nothing. Nothing. Complete dark emptiness. It was it was a little scary.

Well, this, this is the sort of sort of the serious part though is I figured if my if my daughter who's 13 I'm like, Okay, if I want her to not be addicted to social media and have like mental health problems for real from all this from all this garbage. Like, I got to live there, right? I mean, I got to put my money where my mouth is. And so I've got to I got to do it myself. If I can't just be like, I can't just be scrolling on the couch all night long and then be like, you can't have a
phone. So I'm like, okay,

or you can go to make this happen or go take a dump and you can use the toilet scroller, but that's an
option so that's it for me it's how I'm on the phone

Nothing, nothing, nothing quite like the isobar Oh, nice. WordPress. I'd love that thing.

2222 from Kira, and he says decentralization tends to get mixed with self sovereignty. I have five or six separate wallets, and none of them are self hosted. I feel that it is significantly more decentralized than a single point of incompetent failure, aka myself. No, that is a good point, though. If it would be better for you to have an lb
wallet. And an ln your ln pay wallet. It'd be better for you to have three centralized wallets than one umbrella that you don't know how to run and you have screwed and you screw it up all the time. Yeah, that's probably he's probably right. And

I gotta tell you, my my umbrella has been acting. I don't know what the problem is that the Raspberry Pi's they just don't do well with power management and your your external hard drives. It gets wonky real quick. And then And then if you're running something like Oh, I don't know, a noster client snort on your Umbral. Yeah, I had to uninstall that. It just drives the it spikes the CPU spikes the CPU to

Yeah, now try run blues go on there. I don't think so. I don't think so. See Brooklyn 112 4321 from curio caster, and he says go podcasting?

20 is blades only Impala

sir TJ the wrathful Adam and Dave as a musician in podcasting. 2.0 It's been heavy on my mind. I thought of starting to podcast word episode was a song a season would be an album value for value. However, I just keep wishing there was a music tab in my podcasting 2.0 app. It'd be more organic and real for artists and listeners and Spotify. I'd rather do music V for V than played a Spotify streaming game which I say everything's a scam. Thank you for your courage. But looks like
we're working on it just for you, sir. TJ the raffle that's happening. It's happening. And I'm just I'm still buzzing from the whole idea that I can play a song on a podcast and that the value blocks which is I mean, it's mind blowing to me and to Sam apparently who didn't understand it just too hard.
Now, it's not that I've got I've got to get a product out the market. I know.

You're telling me what you're saying is we need to stop doing stuff so you can actually

stop slow down slow down

Jean been 8649 through cast thematic he says I like the idea of tags following the Unix philosophy of doing one thing and doing it well. By the way, the boost amount is the t nine version of the word Unix.

Ooh t nine. By the way, we just t nine.

What is t nine?

This isn't me isn't t nine. The t nine is the it's not the predictive text.

T not as predictive text technology. Okay, all right. It gets you to

SD Steven B rightly says in a new boost. Tell sir TJ to check out curio caster which has a music tab or Ellen beats, which is a dedicated V for V music player. I don't know what the URL is from Ellen beats. Change the MSP to Ellen beats.

I don't know what No, that's right. That's right. Yeah.

I like to know like Ellen beach.com. Or that's a good name. It's a great name. I like that a lot.

Mike, Mike Dale, Todd's partner in crime 1701 Star Trek nerd boost. He knows 1701 Right. No, that's the that's the nomenclature, the model number of the enterprise NCC 1701 This

is where Hey, okay, stop the show. First of all, ln beach.com It looks cool. Steven didn't even see that. Second. You've got to tell everybody about your selfie with William Shatner.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, it was a scam. That's what it was. This is a huge scam. If you ever go to a Comic Con, and you and you have the option to get your picture made with the Star Trek guys for Shatner individually. Say no. Because this is this is how it happens. This is great. By

the way. It was horrible.

So what what did you have? You can buy in advance you can buy in advance like you paid Yeah, paid via you pay for it. Dude, this guy Shatner at his booth has it's like $120 for an autographed picture. And then and that includes two words like like like Fox you in for every additional word is 30 bucks. So this

Oh man, I'm in the wrong business.

Then then the for the picture you pay in advance. You have like these different packages. You can get your picture made with just Shatner with Shatner plus the Star Trek Next Generation crew was there's all these different configuration packages. Oh, no. Yes packages. So you get in there. And then in the way it's set up is there's Shatner and the Star Trek people on on one side of a piece of plexiglass. And you on the other side, you're not even anywhere close
to there. Four feet five feet away, so

none of your cooties can float onto them. Yes, right.

Yeah, exactly. So you're like, everybody can everybody in the all the patient base kind of leaning as much as they can.

You can see the plexi glasses and shadows just sitting there. Like, you know, like Weekend at Bernie's, like, oh, yeah,

you go you go through and they look at you through the plexiglass and they're light and I'm just like, I don't know what Hey,

could they hear it? You need this prison phones? That would make it perfect. Yeah,

yes, exactly. No, do not pay for this people.

It's I'm sorry. I'm dying. I know you were excited. And that's very disappointing.

Yeah, it was but we get to see lots of nerds so that was fun.

Yay for nerds. Good.

Bill Prague. 5000 SATs at the fountain. He says yes, Hive does have decentralized identities and comments, ensure better keys and a better keys architecture. You can leak your key and not lose your account.

pricy pants 10,000 SATs through fountain How about a juice cast app? I would willingly pay 50 cents an episode like the OG bucks as a truck driver, I listen all day every day and 2.0 is awesome. But I just can't boost every show but what essentially would but would easily pay 50 cents if I could queue it up. That's a great idea for an app. There's

this Elon beats looks nice by the way.

It's not just rebranded MSP.

Yeah, but it looks nice. Okay. Cool logo was I don't know he did something different.

That is a good logo looks nice. Looks real nice. That is a good idea for an app though. We Bouchard a random song. I mean, get to pick a song. Yeah, that'd

And as for 20 says, it says on wave lake a feed is created for each album, which can have additional tracks published to it after initiating it a feed is not created until an album with at least one tracks published here is tracks from debasement by debased ghost Okay, so he's linking to that.

Okay, I think I think I saw that on LM beats what what's it called? What's the name of the what was that debasement

was the bet yeah, they just deleted debase. I'm sorry, I don't know how to get it back. What's the I don't have to get back? I'm in Thunderbird. Why? Why on earth? It because I know why. Because it's the only one that reliably shows me emojis

Anybody who needs it, we're happy to provide that to even at these crazy high fees. Man, I saw a 55 visa fee the other day,

And when you're opening a million SATs, it's like oh, okay, well do a half hour here instead of what was an hour instead of half hour. Again, podcast index.org. The bottom that you can find a spot to dog big donate button for your pay pal. But we really appreciate if you get one of those modern apps at podcast apps.com and use that to boost us it's very much appreciated. Sam, we're very appreciative of the time, talent and treasure, you are also a frequent booster
now that you've put into to the whole project. And I'm so excited to see pod fans take off. And it's the as you know, we're happy to promote and do anything. And so whenever you're ready for the for the heavy hand, we're here for you, brother.
Oh, nice. Thanks, Adam. And Dave, I mean, look, you know, none of this would be possible without YouTube. And I so thank you very much.

We've sprouted so many businesses and careers. We're so proud.
Right, Dave? Having watching your children grow out and

children?

Well, go ahead.

No, I've got I've got too many kids already. I don't need more.

And they never get off the payroll for some reason. You know, that's interesting, because I we rarely think of it that way. But I think from time to time, maybe once every six months, we'll be like, Wow, this is kind of cool. This thing we started when I would text message. Hey, this is kind of cool. What's happening here? Who would have thunk?

I think it hits me when we don't get the chance to do a show. Like what like last Friday when it's like, I just want to just get the edge like I'm not sure I'm not. I just want to do it because there's so much going on there. So I mean, like, I've got a whole page of stuff that we didn't even get to

tell me what. So I can put it in my in my brain. For next

chat. The chat tag. We made some changes to it. The we put some attributes on it. Alex's peer tube. Oh, yeah,

it was all that yeah, pod. Pod roll,

get some things we need to read. We need to talk about that. And we need to talk about remote item. I had a whole thing I was going to try. I was going to try to convince sand to embrace remote item with both hands. You want to try that before

we leave you want you want to hold on to it. You want to hold on to that.

I will I will hold on to because I know you get a heart out.

Yes, I do. I have my post op post op post. I've gotta go Yeah, I do. I Yeah. Okay.
And with Pedro, can I just say can we keep it simple, it works.

It I think we can keep it simple. With Remote item. I promise you it will not be Oh will not make it any more complicated.

What you're gonna put yourself in my remote items is going to be a part of pod roll.

That I think it needs to be because actually this is the thing Remote item and I just said I was going to do it I'm doing it remote item is is is got to be the official way to reference an external piece of content. It just has to be big it had there has to be a structure because here, let me boil down remote item into into his most simple basic form remote item with one attribute that is feed that is feed good.
It's just that so your pod role can have, instead of a list of goo is separated by a comma, it can just have a list of remote items with a feed good. It's essentially the same thing. But the the reason we need remote item to exist, it has to be there has to be this standardized way of referring to a piece of content in a in a remote piece and remote feed. So your remote item remote item is it can be as simple as just a feed good. Or it can be the feed Gu id plus the item. Good. So
now you're referencing and remote episode. Or it can be the feed guid plus plus a feed URL plus a Episode Good. And now Now that gives you and here here's here's the issue for apps that don't have their own back end, like antenna pod or caste ematic. If we just use Gu IDs, they they're going to be hamstrung because they won't, they'll have to do lookups when they go to resolve the GUID to find the URL, and they may not have like cast ematic Franco doesn't even have a server. So
where do you go to get that good resolution? So I think we have to have something that offers like layered fallbacks. And I think remote item is just a simple, it's a very simple tag, it just says, here's a way to reference an external item. And so then if we use that as the building block to build up pod roll in, and then other things like that's essentially what we're doing with with value time split, then there you go. Like you can just plug and play this thing is like Lego blocks, it
can go anywhere. Pod sage has spoken. Did I sell it? Is it sold?

I pay you money just to never say that thing again. Like crushing you last? No, no, you I, I'm I'm like jazz, whatever. Dave says, My brain hurts my brain hurt from that.
To be fair, if you look at the current pod, bro, you got rally calls, channel rally cars, Episode, rally calls, whatever, replace rally calls with remote item price, fundamentally, you're doing the same thing. So I get it. It's not that difficult to implement. It's a case of, again, if everyone agrees on on what we're going to do then then then the app developers like, you know, we can get on with it. But I think
he's a moving target. So the easiest one for us to do to prove that there was actually a way of going forward was to just do the GUID comma element within the pop role. And that worked straight away. So that was why we did it. But obviously, if we think, you know, we can extend it with value then we'll do it.

I will trade you I will trade you. REL equals for remote item.
That's what I'm saying though. It's very easy to do. This is old tell me that's the standard then we'll do it. Sweet.

We have an agreement

now and we have an agreement and then I'm gonna post it on the discussion thing and Kevin Kevin from Buzzsprout is gonna be like no

I'm gonna back you. I'm backing you Dave. I'm backing you.

I'm building my team. That's right.

Yes. Right. We got Dave's army right here. We're back in the pod sage all the way pod sage all the way Hey, hey ho ho pod shades are the way to go.

Mode army metallized
