podcasting 2.0 for July 21 2023, episode 142 Bottom funnel Hello everybody time once again for the official board meeting of podcasting 2.0. That's right, the only boardroom that's open during the strike. We're here to bring you everything that's going on with the podcast index.org with the podcast namespace, of course, everything. We're talking about O'Byrne podcast index on social the future of podcasting is

here. I'm Adam curry in the heart of the Texas Hill Country and in Alabama, the man who will grep your log anytime day or night. Say hello to my friend on the other end ladies and gentlemen, Mr. de m. Yo.

Dave JonesDave Jones

I'm barely had time to put my vitamin D drops in the beef shake.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Things I never say

Dave JonesDave Jones

I did as a special gift to myself today though. Yeah, I dropped as I was mixing up the grass fed beef milkshake. Dropped in a dropped an ice cream sandwich in there. Oh, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

thought you were gonna say I dropped a little bit of acid in there. And that would have been really cool.

Dave JonesDave Jones

We'll be great in about

Adam CurryAdam Curry

day two tuned, it's on the way.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yes. Ice Cream Sandwich known for his vitamin and mineral content.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That was a little a little bit of a downer. We started today. And we always try to have a cool little pre stream show. We're singing along with some classic hits 100% retro, which is available in all modern podcast apps and understand the live concert. And we found out Tony Bennett passed away today. It's just I mean, he had a great life. 96 years old was still miss Tony tried to play Little Tony and then I got even more depressed was not a good thing. When I

Dave JonesDave Jones

came in and sat down 10 minutes late by the way. I came in and sat down and went up when I jack into the stream. Yes. Typically, you got 100% retro. It was Madonna Auto Tune whatever that stupid song is that she has that.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That yeah, I forget what it was.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Whatever, that dumb song and so then. And then I'm like, okay, somebody you were not here. I said somebody tell Adam that I'm here but I gotta go like putting my stuff now and everything. And I get back in. It's like, Tony. Hey, Tony Bennett. Dad

Adam CurryAdam Curry

just heard about it. Like, oh, man, I was mentioning earlier during the stream. I will say now that I saw him I think three years ago in Austin, maybe four years ago. at the movie theater. I'd seen him eight years ago as well in Austin at a bigger theater did the same thing. But so he was 92 I guess. And I got halfway or three quarters through the concert. He just puts his mic down and sings on amplified and fills the whole place.

Dave JonesDave Jones

There was a better bed deck. I bet it's like kind of a haunting. Saying

Adam CurryAdam Curry

goosebumps just Goosebumps. Goosebumps. I also saw him when he had his daughter on the road. Who I didn't know about. Yeah, he while his daughter was kind of for support. I think he said I just wanted her on the she can say she's good singer to just wander on the road for support. And so didn't want to be out on the road by myself. My last years. Yeah. Anyway,

Dave JonesDave Jones

are you one of those? We'll see when those guys that got into like, became like a standard Las Vegas. Person that like live there.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, I mean, he of course was there for many years on and off. But I mean, he was way above and beyond, you know, a like a residency in Vegas. I mean, he was he could do anything you wanted at any point in time anywhere in the world. I had he was he was he was Frank Sinatra's favorite singer.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Give Good for him. Yeah, he had a good luck. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

good luck. Good Life is awesome. All the songs at the American Songbook is rolling through my head. Anyway, welcome strikers. For those of you wondering, What am I going to do during the strike? Well, you came to the right place.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Welcome to get up and get any podcast.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, you know, I'm just saying if there's all kinds of exceptions and waivers for the strike business, like Apple got a waiver for one of their shows there's there's all these like, tricky deals you can do and then the the guild or the union so sag AFTRA, and I guess the Writers Guild will give you a waiver so you can continue production is like kind of scammy

Dave JonesDave Jones

this is this is the this is the Russia sanctions scam. You know, you get sanctions, but you have like 27 Different loopholes that you can Oh, yeah, but you can't you can't Take oil, you know, you can't accept oil from Russia, unless you're in one of these 57 special categories.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Exactly. Exactly. And then you can,

Dave JonesDave Jones

it's all fine. Yeah.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It's I mean, I'm just looking at what's going on and how far apart these people are and what the what I think the this is called Hollywood, but it's not really fair because 99% of the people who work in the entertainment industry on television, radio, movies, support for all that are meal people you've never heard of probably just, you know, actors who work for a living, you know, look at any scene on a

television or movie, television show or movies. There's, there's about 50 people walking around that you don't think about but they're there. They're, you know, they're on set, they're getting paid. Some of them do speaking roles. It's all I mean, I've I've done my fair share of little bit parts here and there, and you don't get paid much good paid scale, even though I was MTB guy. Now, here's scale Shut up.

Dave JonesDave Jones

What's it's, it's common. I mean, it's common for everybody, the everybody in anything related to media because this like, say New York Times had an article today actually printed it out Google tests AI tool that is able to write news articles. Here's, here's this, here's this line.

And it says, news organizations around the world are grappling with whether to use artificial intelligence tools in their newsrooms, many, including the times NPR and insider, have notified employees that they intend to explore potential uses of AI to see how it might be responsibly applied to the high stakes realm of news, where seconds count and accuracy is paramount. You see, I'm

Adam CurryAdam Curry

not I don't think AI is so much the problem. I really don't. I don't think Hollywood believes that, you know, great scripts are going to get turned out by AI. The problem is, it's no longer the business that these actors and writers thought they were in, you know, and it was all great when it was like, hey, you know, we're changing the model. We don't have residuals because it's all gonna be on our streaming app. So

we're gonna pay you more upfront. So you because then you won't get residuals like, okay, and I was like, hey, that's groovy. And look at all this work I got, and then interest rates went through the roof and the free money train stopped and I was like, no, sorry, you know, and we're only doing six episodes per season. So sorry. You know, wait six months without work. And what they it's your are your headphones louder? Is that me? I hear myself coming back from time to time.

Dave JonesDave Jones

They're probably pretty loud. Yeah. Okay. I'm jacked.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Just turn you to No, no, do whatever is fine. I like

Dave JonesDave Jones

you. I Like You loud in my head that way. It's it feels good. Feels like you're right there. Do what I say. Jones, no. Good Feet behind me.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

The problem is these guys don't realize it's no longer dealing with Hollywood did dealing with Silicon Valley. And we know the Silicon Valley model. Give me all your creativity. Here's nothing. That's right. That's what they do. That's that's a big reason why podcasting got into so much trouble. By the way. I heard something kind of encouraging. On the pod news weekly review. There's these two young women that

Dave JonesDave Jones

that interview. Yeah. Seriously made. It just made me sad. Well, it made me depressed

Adam CurryAdam Curry

really, because I kind of got happy about it. Interesting. Georgina Holt and Christiana Benton from the telling agency that I think is not a great name personally. Because I couldn't hear it. It was hard. What's the name telling? Like belling selling, I couldn't quite get it. The reason why I got a little enthusiastic is because they're going back to the original model that I started with at pod show.

And that model was the idea that you could move away from downloads and listener metrics and go to what they're calling a performance based. Performance based advertising, also known as what is it? Direct codes? Now? What Yeah, exactly. What do you call it? What do you call it?

Dave JonesDave Jones

Coupon Code coupon codes.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Now what what happened with that is, very quickly, we realized that the way to success with the coupon codes was to SEO the crap out of the coupon code, who cares

what's in the podcast, as long as someone use the codes? So then before you know it, you know, there's all these companies that are being hired and they're, you know, they're making sure that people see these coupon codes and those an arbitrage which In the coupon code, you know, buying traffic for the coupon codes, and then what we could get from the advertiser. So it was a scam and I hated it. Yeah. However, they

said something kind of interesting. So the idea is, you you want someone to buy something that's really the metric that the advertiser uses. Either you're going to have someone sign up for something register for something, or buy something, there's a kind of the action so you're going to get compensated based on how many people can perform an action. And they were of course talking about attribution and pixels and all this creepy tracking crap,

Dave JonesDave Jones

and bottom funnels and whatever the hell that means.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Bottom funnel is a great show Title I

Dave JonesDave Jones

don't know what it means a porn

Adam CurryAdam Curry

category on

Dave JonesDave Jones

one point, I wish I had clipped it at the bottom I've given myself a moratorium on pod news weekly review clips, because there's just so many good things in there that I just have to stop so I don't have a challenge to not clip that show every week. So there was this one section in that interview with I think it's Christiana she goes on a string of digital advertising jargon that was one for the record books it was like it was

Adam CurryAdam Curry

there was a lot of that in there with the accident made it even funnier.

Dave JonesDave Jones

It was like it was like seven or eight seconds of words that I had no idea what any of it man oh my god, what is what?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, then I had a thought because and then also and these things never come accidentally because who was it was I go a guy over there on podcast index dot social who's doing the stats? These extrapolating our stats and creating new stats from the stats,

Dave JonesDave Jones

Ron Plouffe palooza.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Let's Obama's guy, Ron blue. No. Let me see. It's on the second who is a dude, come on. It is Ron Plouffe.

Dave JonesDave Jones

That's when you're thinking of David. David Plouffe.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

David Plouffe? Yes. Another No, no,

Dave JonesDave Jones

there may be a relation. I don't know. Here's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

another namespace milestone this week feeds with chapters crossed 20,000. On Wednesday, congratulations. This is quite good. You know, there's 20,000 podcast feeds that are actively using chapters. That's not bad.

Dave JonesDave Jones

That number is actually way more impressive than it sounds because of the number we know that the number of active shows is way, way lower than 4 million, you know, the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

more like 400,000

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, right. Right. So that I mean, that's actually that's a pretty decent chunk.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So then I was thinking, here's what it was like the problem with attribution, and all this crap is all the tracking and the creepy stuff. And ultimately, it's not, it's just not really a great way. And I said, Wait a minute, we have people in the app, you know, the call to action shouldn't be, hey, buy this product, subscribe for this service, sign up to this newsletter, whatever the call to

action is. Just look at your app right there. In the chapter, click the link, we have the mechanism for this, we have the call to action mechanism, which is dot does not require view to be tracked. So we know that you heard about it on the show. No, you can literally track it from a chapter link. That'll take you right to whatever the action is.

Dave JonesDave Jones

You'll see that's what, that's what that app visie was trying to do. At vizlib, when we had them on the show the guy from Australia, you what happened to them? I don't know. I mean, they were they were kind of they were rolling for a while and then they just can't, don't haven't seen or heard from in a while. So I don't know, I don't know if they didn't make it or what I'm not sure.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

But the idea, the idea. Yeah, the idea is good. And now we have some traction with this stuff. And so it's really a I mean, it's to me, it's like a hybrid value for value in a way where you say, hey, look, we're sponsored by, by now this advertiser, because it all it all requires what we would call a host read, but it's not really it's more integrated into the, into the content of the into the content, the product is kind of integrated into what the show is doing.

Say, Hey, you know, the way to support this show, is to get a modern podcast app. And then whenever you hear something you like, you know, right there, click on the image, and it'll take you to the offer.

Dave JonesDave Jones

That's the only way I'm gonna get back.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Which by the way, I think would be very, very valuable as an audience that if you can get your audience to do that, and it's not a big ask. It really isn't. I mean, whether you're asking people to bigger ask us to ask them to boost with Satoshis that's a big ask. Now we have something that There's

more chapter chapter bass feeds by what is it? By about 6000 We have 14,000 value for value feeds, but all different audiences, it's not a big ask to say you'll get a new app when you listen to the show or listen to the show on this app, I'm gonna have to hear something you like or hey, you know, sign up for that because it supports everything, click on it. And the attribution is built right into the system because you can hard code your special link in there.

Dave JonesDave Jones

We'll see that's the only way forward I think long term that's the only way forward for for attribution because you can't the pic the tracking pixel and all this that keeps

Adam CurryAdam Curry

going away. Yes. And it's not going to work anymore. It's not going to it's not

Dave JonesDave Jones

going to work at Apple will flip the switch. They are going to do it and it is going to all this stuff is going to break Yeah. Yeah, the world is broken.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Words word so true, my friend. We live in a broken world.

Dave JonesDave Jones

You know, I've got a I've got a I brought a PowerPoint.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Up brought up PowerPoint. Oh my god, I just don't even have the beamer hooked up. Who's got the Beamer? Who who has the remote for the beam? Or do you have a cord? What kind of cord Do you have? On your head

Dave JonesDave Jones

display port?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

We need adapters.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Somebody can somebody dropped the screen in the travel conference room? I need to I need a projector.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

But how many times we've been through that crap. Ah, Dave, you probably still go through it on a on a weekly basis.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Oh, three times a week at least. Yes. This is this is what gets gets me this. Everything is perfect transition, which is another way of saying the world The world is broken. Because it so

Adam CurryAdam Curry

indicate next slide. Next slide.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Sounds like what are those? What are those things? The little little carousel? Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

project. That's what it is.

Dave JonesDave Jones

And then you know how many of those I sat through? My grandmother showed me. My uncle Israel, Uncle Stanley.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Uncle Stanley did that in our fab. And then you have Oh, go back and you have that double click, you know, like, yeah, there it is. There's your double click back.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Like, Oh, Grandma, the Jordan, the Jordan River. Yes. I've seen it 100 times.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Invariably, like someone would knock over the the next carousel and everything would be out of order. And Uncle Stanley would be literally mad. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Don't touch him with your fingers.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, yeah. So I want to I want to, I want to jump off track here and just talk about general the issue edification of of the entire university

Adam CurryAdam Curry

and should have occation of the entire universe, right? Yes. Yes.

Dave JonesDave Jones

The cracks are starting to form. Everywhere you look. I mean, it there. It's not just financial. It's it's social. It's political. It's, it's every where you look, there are, there are, there's you can see the cracks. This this week was a difficult week. For me, not psychologically, I thought

almost a depression this week. Oh, goodness. Because of, it's primarily to do with with with a thing that happened at my day job that I was fighting against, that I obviously can't go into detail about, but I can but I can give you the broad strokes. So the we have an enterprise software vendor, I will just leave it at that. It's a big one.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Enough about Microsoft.

Dave JonesDave Jones

And it is not Microsoft know, the in but but that's the point is it could be any of them that like this applies to all of them. So we've got this, we got this enterprise software vendor that we have a lot of client data in. And we come in Monday into the office and go to login as the add an administrative user for this piece of for this platform. And user unknown user. That is exactly what it says. This year said user does not exist. And I was like, Excuse me. This is

literally the account that has everything. All the poverty. This is godmode account. There's only one of them it because you can only have one of them, right? And so I was like, Yeah, this problem. So my coworker calls And he's in, he's told, Oh, that account got disabled by our security and compliance team, because they got flagged for you know, something specific suspicious. And I was in so they said, All everything's met, everything's okay.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

All your data is safe. Yes,

Dave JonesDave Jones

you can say that. Everything's alright. But all you gotta do we just need you to submit your best submit photo ID proof.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

What are they Twitter was Twitter, your vendor? What is the Facebook,

Dave JonesDave Jones

we need to verify that you did, you're still in control of this account. Okay, fine, submitted that information, uploaded it through a link we were given.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Now yours or your colleagues, Nicole McCauley, good, good work,

Dave JonesDave Jones

three, three days, three days and your subordinate,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I should point out not just your colleague, the guy who works for you, hey, use your ID

Dave JonesDave Jones

as a colleague, because I don't want to three days later, no word, no feed, note no response. So I would now

Adam CurryAdam Curry

three hours, three hours, I would be pissed off.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Now I have to get involved. So we were told two to three days to turn around time. So now I have to get involved, right? I call I call in. I'm told I'm told a different. Now I'm told a different thing. I'm told, Oh, well, your security team disabled this account. And you're gonna have to create a new admin account. And in order to do that, you're gonna have to submit documentation for district conditio, your representative the company, and he's gonna have to be Shawn

signed by the managing shareholder. Oh, cool. You're gonna need to submit articles of organization. Shareholders agree? Yes, yes, yes. So went through all that. I'm going to try to not make this story long. Because I'm trying to get to a bigger point, I'm loving it. Went through all that to a day later, get a rejection. Notice that you did not submit your structure of your organization is

Adam CurryAdam Curry

your TPS reports, your TPS reports are not an order is such

Dave JonesDave Jones

that you need that you need signed documentation from all of the shareholders.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

And there's probably 30 partners.

Dave JonesDave Jones

It it's not a small number. And so I spent the entire day getting photo IDs, permission letters, all this stuff, submitted it again on Friday. Got a reject another rejection over the weekend saying you did not submit any information. So this, so I'm gonna stop right there. This eventually the reason that I was late to the show to this is

eventually got resolved today. And it started last Monday. We got stuck in a loop where nobody could verify when we get stuck in an automation loop, a bureaucracy a bureaucratic automation loop, which is what I mean by the insured ification of everything enterprise software is broken. So let me try to give a this intiative occation is the way I'm talking about it's like it's the it's the phenomenon of an emerging awareness that the techniques and rules based processes we've all become, like

bound to, they don't actually serve a purpose. They're not useful, their usefulness. They don't they don't actually serve a purpose purpose for which their usefulness outweighs the effort used to adhere to them. Does that make sense?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, say say at moments had that last bit one more time.

Dave JonesDave Jones

So so it's it, there's this emerging awareness that the the rules and the techniques that we are bound to in all of these areas of life don't actually serve a purpose for which their usefulness outweighs the effort we have to x put out to adhere to them? Oh, no, of

Adam CurryAdam Curry

course not.

Dave JonesDave Jones

So like when when technology is so when technology produces velocity, okay, I'm going to use that term. When technology produces a sort of like a velocity or, or a momentum. There's this sense of pride Progress and like economic, physical progress academic. Like even just like a general excitement over invention, and like new things, you know, you get to play with new things, you get to experience new things. GK Chesterton said the Chief

pleasure. Well, what do you say is, the chief said the Chief pleasure is surprise of all the pleasures of humanity, the chief one is surprise. There's that's progress. And technological velocity takes advantage of that experiential thing within humanity. We, because of that, we ignore the sort of second order effects, we ignore the things that are happening while as a result of the technological velocity and in momentum. So we're all just waiting for the next thing to happen. But now,

there's not a next thing. There is no next thing anymore. The like, technology always resolves itself down at the, when edit edits end. Technology always resolves itself down to technique. And once the once that technological villa, I'm using the term technological velocity, because I think some people say like pace of innovation, and I don't like

that. I don't think that that's really what what I mean, once that technological velocity slows, those second order effects that we didn't, that we just sort of like were a little bit aware of that maybe they were covered up by the, by the excitement and the surprise of the new Yeah, those things become the primary functions. They become not like they're no longer freedom, they're constrained. Oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

absolutely. Or prof G would say 100%.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Profit, G. Well, yeah. So like, a AI is? Well, before I do before I before I go to that part, I've got a clip notes from from this, we've been watching the show. I think it's on what used to be HBO, Max, and Max now, to be watching this show. It's called for the love of kitchens. Don't laugh at me.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I love it. I think I think I'm gonna have to watch the show for the love of kitchens, I like it.

Dave JonesDave Jones

It's the default is this company called Devall. They're out of the UK, they make these like $100,000 kitchens. So we kind of get into this show. But there's this one. They've got a bunch of craftsmen that that are that work for this company. And they're on this little Preserve. And it's it's a really nice atmosphere. And there's this one guy that he was in it, and then he became a blacksmith working for this Deval outfit. And he just gives us a little bit of his thoughts on

Unknown

draw out the point. Then Winston that bend over the end, because no one likes a sharp hook. So it doesn't damage whatever you put on. I'm using my jig, I'll create the curve of the hook. All I've got left to do now is get it all warm again. Let it cool event, and then we're waxing. Previously, I've had 20 plus years in the IT industry. And a few years ago, I decided that I wanted something outside of it. I come to work and I've got a boys toys, I can create stuff. And it's a freedom

that I never thought I'd get. I'm loving this. This is the rail that Joe will be getting it when you hold something when you know someone spent time creating it. Bit of love put into it. I think that comes through to the customer. What's the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

name of this show?

Dave JonesDave Jones

It's called for the love of kitchens. So here's, you know, here's a guy, IT guy for 20 years. He finally got out of the IT game. And I would say the technology game in general or the Information Technology game and got in now. He He's a craftsman. He's a tradesman, he makes things with his hands. And he's super excited about it and he feels a seat he talks about the freedom and I think the freedom that he's talking about Is, is this thing, it's, it's the freedom from these second

order effects that build up as we progress technologically. And that this, this brings me to, to to AI. That's what AI, it hit me this week. AI is that is like the subconscious attempt of the technological society to solve this paradox. As you increase as you progress, as you increase technology, you also increase these constraints, these second order effects, you start to feel

captivated, Eastover start to feel captive to them. You could say like, you know, like, when, when we go to bed at night, we don't we don't, we don't feel as happy as we did in like, 1990. And it's not because, you know, it's not because of it is because of a lot of these things, is because we now have we have, we've technically progressed. But we are because of that we have all these technical constraints on us now that we have to adhere to, it's not enough to just, you know,

turn on the washing machine. Now we have, it's also connected to an app on a window over Wi Fi on our phone.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Hello, oh, it's Professor Ted from the grave for you, Ted Kaczynski,

Dave JonesDave Jones

consults, still a consultant. So the technical, the technological velocity has slowed. We're unhappy with the constraints that it left us with. And then comes AI. And AI is the promises to ease the burden of of those constraints. So AI is gonna take you so you take this situation that I was in this week, you know, and now we're AI has to emerge in order to be, quote, more intelligent, about, about security, about about analyzing the security data to make sure that things

that happen, like happened to me won't happen again. Or to use a personal example, from podcasting. And this, this kind of ultimately comes around, I'm gonna I'm gonna ding ourselves for this, which is not our fault, but it's just to how it goes. With all the new features within podcasting, 2.0 in podcast namespace. Buzzsprout now has to create AI in order to make chapters and things like this easier. Because now in order to produce a podcast, you're there's more stuff to do.

And so this AI is like, AI is this empty promise because it can't work. It's not going to function the way that it can't. So it's a it's claiming to solve a problem that it can't solve, right? And it all goes back to this this. We were promised flying cars, and we got 140 characters that concept. It's worse than that. Because 140 characters brought with it.

Social media, apps, PR, SEO, mobile device management, security vulnerabilities, tech support, censorship, on and on and on, if you're really

Adam CurryAdam Curry

bumming me out, dude.

Dave JonesDave Jones

What I'm saying is, AI is not the beginning of anything. It's the end.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It's actually the end of memory, the way I see it, that we become so lazy,

Dave JonesDave Jones

is the end of innovation is not the beginning of any new phase of innovation. It's the end it's not in the AI is not innovation. It's supplication. Whoo. snapback, like it is begging you not to give up and exit the system.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, yes, yes, yes. Yes. You know, it's interesting that when I was 6015, maybe even 14, I lived in a small village south of Amsterdam, and I did two summers. The thing was two summers of Saturday work, and sometimes Thursday or Friday work at a blacksmith oh really actually learned how to shoe a horse. And by the way, that smell when you when you put that horseshoe onto the horse's hoof you'll never forget that smell. But it was it was one of the gritten the Smith core core the

Smith God he was Dutch guy Of course. He was really like, you know, tall lanky, strong dude and just watching him bang those those cars you get the standard, poor shoe from from the horse shoe factory. You got to make it fit for the horse. It was, it was one of the most exciting times in my life. And I remembered so I can still I can still smell that burning hoof. It was, it was very fulfilling, versus the electronics store where I work later, where I sold resistors and transistors and

capacitors and solder and stuff like that. Although the smell of solder not bad either, not a bad smell of solder even that, do kids even know how to solder anymore.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Know. The easy problems are all in technology, the easy problems are all solved. They were all solved a long time ago. You know that? That's that's the thing. Now, this bothers me about noster because they seem to have this idea, that prob that, that there's some easy solution to things that are inherently impossibly difficult, like decentralization, and that they're kidding themselves. The easy stuff already has answered it was already answered long ago.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That's interesting. You say that because I follow the damos developer through through the noster to activity pub bridge. So I follow him on podcast index dot social. And I see him making stuff that is so centralized. It's not even decentralized. It's all centralized. So I mean, it's just yeah. And you can see people replying, hey, you know, turn off the damos relay. Yeah, no nostril will collapse.

Dave JonesDave Jones

It's moving. It's more. Yeah. And the things that I see them saying are more like, we're about to make decentralized shopping the thing you can't stop us figured out something brand new that nobody's ever seen before. Okay, so there's again, another clip, there's, it reminded me of John Carmax interview on the LEX Friedman show. And he made this statement, and it has stuck like a thorn in my brain ever since. And it has bothered me. And I think it was the impetus for all

of the thinking that I have had to do about this topic. This week. It's he's talking about artificial into artificial intelligence, specifically AGI or you know, general intelligence. And he's acting as if there are easy answers to this, that we just have to wait around for

Unknown

the artificial general intelligence side of things. I'm, it seems to me like this is the highest leverage moment for potentially a single individual, potentially, in the history of the world, where the things that we know about the brain about what we can do with artificial intelligence. Nobody can say absolutely on any of these things. But I am not a madman, for saying that it is likely that the code for artificial general intelligence is going to be 10s of 1000s of lines of

code, not millions of lines of code. This is code that conceivably one individual could write, unlike writing a new web browser operating system. And based on the progress that AI has machine learning has made in the recent decade, it's likely that the important things that we don't know, are relatively simple, there's probably a handful of things. And my bet is that I think there's less than six key insights that need to be made, each one of them can probably be written on the back

of an envelope. We don't know what they are. But when they're put together, in concert with GPUs at scale, and the data that we all have access to, that we can make something that behaves like a human being or like a living creature, and that can then be educated in whatever ways that we need to get to the point where we can have universal remote workers where anything that somebody does mediated by a computer and

doesn't require physical interaction. And that an AGI will be able to do we can already simulate the, you know, the equivalent of the zoom, the Zoom meetings with avatars, and if synthetic deep fakes and whatnot, we can definitely do that. We have superhuman capabilities on any narrow thing that we can, that we could formalize and make a loss function for. But there's things we don't know how to do now. But

I don't think they are unapproachable or hard. Now, that's incredibly hubristic to say that it's like, but I think that what I said a couple years ago is a 50% chance that somewhere, there will be signs of life of AGI in 2030. And I've probably increased that slightly. I may be at 55 60%. Now because I do think there's a little sense of acceleration there.

Dave JonesDave Jones

He's kidding himself. But he's completely delusional. There's let me give him the let me just give one cynical example.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Can I give you my theory about all of this before you give us your example? Yeah, sure. My theory is ultimately everybody wants a robot for porn. That's all that it is. That's all that we're every sees like, I want a robot for porn. That's, that's what it is. I don't see. And then as men and women alike, we don't really want anything else.

Dave JonesDave Jones

This it all comes? Well, it all comes back to it all comes back to the AI question. de ar question being the the ai ai being the end, not the beginning. It's yeah, I mean, that fits with what your title is, like. So I guess, I don't know how long ago this was, maybe. Oh, gosh, it's got to be 15 years ago, at least. Now, it's more than that. So I was really involved with this assembly, Windows assembly language community called MASM, MASM, 32. So we, it was the

first open source software community I was a part of. And there was a great developer, he's still around somewhere called his handle was mad wizard. And he was just top notch. And he wrote all kinds of killer assembly software for Windows. He went on to develop some USB drivers for like custom where you can do custom modules and that kind of thing, which

was cool. But he wrote this thing one time, it was a very simple tool that would just enumerate all of the network interface cards, and your Windows machine can give you information by giving the MAC address give me remember, this is 2002 Or three.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Right now. We have defconfig dash a

Dave JonesDave Jones

with Windows XP air. And so he writes this tool in and I'm looking through the source and it doesn't work, right. There's this one class of network interface cards, that it can't find it was like a ton adapter or something like that. So no matter what you did, you wouldn't show it. So I'm looking through there and I found a found some obscure documentation on Microsoft's win 32 API. This showed that this specific type of network interface card, you had a constant in the windows

3132 API that he was not accounting for. So what he had done is he admit he had made this little he had made this, this little macro, a simple language macro, that was constructing the constants that he was going to use for lookups, building a lookup table, essentially, in memory. based on a formula, it was like, adding 100 at each time or something to this bitmask. So he was building this thing in memory with this

macro when he first launched. And the interesting thing is, all of the constants were just easily he could just do this, go right through, right, they all fit the same mathematical algorithm. This one constant did not. So in order to support this type of network interface card within the win 32 API, he had to get rid of this elegant, three line macro, and build in just a static table of constants. Now, he has just had to make his code

ugly and less modular to support this other thing. And this, this is what I'm talking about. We we can't stop this process from happening. There's no way in which like, like John Carmack has said, he's deluding himself. There, there is no easy answers anymore. You can't you he is still operating under this idea. That there's this, that it's possible to have elegant, easy, simple solutions to difficult problems. And that is, that is not accurate, either.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'm gonna say I would actually posit, based on what you're saying, in my own thinking, my own independent thinking is AI. First of all, it's a buzzword, it's the new blockchain, whatever, it's only going to create more employment opportunities, not less, more. There'll be many more people necessary to support this stuff for the reason you just laid out.

Dave JonesDave Jones

But you see I'm more pessimistic.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay, could you get even more mummery on me?

Dave JonesDave Jones

I'm more pessimist in this because so much stuff happened this week that's just sort of like all played in together. Mark Marco Hill Linna at Linode in a Marco posted publicly that Linode is now that their own Bochum I just for just randomly told him that they're going to down his server for a migration. Like in the middle of the day for eight he's gonna have eight hours of downtime Marco

Adam CurryAdam Curry

from overcast Marco overcast. Oh, so they just sent him a note will ping or mass email like, hey, screw your business?

Dave JonesDave Jones

Pretty much. Yeah, exactly. And And guess what? The way I see this resolving is is the Exodus, people are going to start just on a technological level, people are going to start checking it out. I've already seen it happening. I've already seen people that are getting they're detaching from social media. They're tired of it. They can't, they're there. They're not able to process it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I agree. I see this everywhere we have we have long reach peak social media, particularly with the advent of threads. You have all these choices. What am I on what's authoritative? Twitter has become, you know, Tina took a one month sabbatical from, from all social media, which I thought was it was pretty good. She it was interesting to see what she was doing instead. And, and now she's back on Twitter. And in that one month, he says, Well, I don't have a blue check.

I don't really want to spend any money on this. And you know, now, half the people I see their subscription only. I can't scroll further back in someone's timeline, because you need to be blue check for that. And and she and she just wasn't like, a couple of weeks ago. I'm bored. I'm bored. It's stupid. All I see is some outrage. I'm not even interested anymore. It's I think it's peaks. And she's my canary. Yeah, but I'm seeing

more of it. I'm seeing more people just checking out. And well, I have my own reasons to think that there people are turning to other things, many other things outside of technology together.

Dave JonesDave Jones

And I think we need to preserve podcasting. This brings it all back to podcast. Yes, thanks. I think we need to preserve

Adam CurryAdam Curry

one hour and we're back to podcast.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Because here's a permit me to permit me to read this passage.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

This is a point of personal privilege permission granted, of course.

Dave JonesDave Jones

This is from the technological society by Jacques Ellul. This explains Another characteristic of the books written after the century of humanism, their lack of convenience, we find few tables of contents, no references, no division intersections, no indices, no chronology, sometimes not even page nation. The apparatus standard for scientific works today is not found even rudimentary in the most perfect works of the period. And its absence is

characteristics of the absence of intellectual technique. The books of the time were not written to be used along with hundreds of others, to locate a piece of information accurately and quickly, or to validate or invalidate an experiment or to furnish a formula. They were not written to be consulted. They were written to be read patiently in their entirety, amen To be meditated upon. Again, this goes back to the

ideal of universality. The presentation of a book, as an author's entire self, is a personal expression of his very being supposes that the reader sought in it not the solution of a given difficulty, or the answer to a given problem, but rather to make personal contact with the author. It was more a question of personal exchange than if taking an objective position.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Wow, totally applicable to podcasting.

Dave JonesDave Jones

That's what podcasting is. That's what's an island.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

This is what we discussed on the previous show. And by the way, got a lot of beautiful emails and notes from people saying, yes, yes, this is what I got into podcasting for there's one guy who does a half hour podcast a week with his son whose house it was across the country at college. And he says, he's connected me to massage. I don't care if there's three if there's no one listening. It's connecting us and people are able to listen in and then it inspires them to connect with

their children. The connection between audience and I'll say, content creator, but that's not even really applicable. Even died by itself is as always been a word. A noun that bothers me. That connection has been so lost in the podcast and Industrial Complex of CPMs and pixels and, and all that stuff. It's completely gone away from what it originally was voices.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, just That's why That's why that interview made me sad is because I was like, No, this is this is all taken this is all technology being applied to a medium. That's what this medium is where books were in the, in the 16th century. We need to get it needs to stay there. Because otherwise we create a technological framework around podcasting, that's going to kill it. Think he told that tracking pixels and all this that mean like this is that this is is ultimately going

to fail for reasons beyond their control? It It damages the medium in the process?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yes. Now, I am not so bearish on chapters, I think chapters, you know, there's a very valid connective reason for them. Outside of, oh, I'm bored, I want to skip ahead. And I've always been looking for that I personally like the different art pieces of art, which is what Dred Scott does for us as much as humanly can. Which, which gives me joy. You know, I don't look at the chapters to skip ahead. Wow, this is boring. Where's my next thing? No, I looked at the chapters, in fact,

that we said didn't help you skip ahead. I looked at the chapters just for the joy of the art or, you know, or something else that has been added to it. That's how I've always you know, that's how I've always viewed them way, way different from, from anything. That is, uh, yeah, I'm just different. Yeah.

Dave JonesDave Jones

I love chapters. And I think this is a couple of things there. I think things like that. There's a, they have to exist. Like, there's, you see a thing and this, this is another aspect of this is this. It becomes self fulfilling. So like the chapters as a technology is it there's a sense in which it must exist? So we have to create it? I mean, we didn't create it. I'm just saying like, there, we have to take it to its fullest extent. And I'm totally cool with that.

And I love that. And I love chapters, which I think we have to be, I'm trying to be honest, and saying that those criticisms that apply to technology and technological velocity in general. Also apply. We don't get a free pan. Oh, we don't know we don't because I see occasionally I'll have an episode that has chapters in it. And the chapters are all messed up. And I get frustrated. And I'm like, Oh, these aren't, these aren't. The timestamps are right,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you should try it, you should try working with a split kit.

Dave JonesDave Jones

I actually did, I started messing around with sovereign feeds this week.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Sovereign feeds. So this is a good point, because I'm so reliant upon Steven B's work. And, you know, because he changes stuff, you know, he's always upgrading doing things, and he does it pretty much in production. And you know, of the 100 times I use it, you know, there's one time but not it's not even to watch one time that it just breaks or something happens. And you know what, I'm able to get a hold of him. And

then we've never had a very disastrous thing. But at that moment, my heart sinks everything like Oh, no. And like, even on the last, the previous because I was still getting used to split kit. And it was quite the transition from having my head how everything works with value time splits, and in sovereign feeds, and then I was taking I was putting the split kit, and my just couldn't quite wrap my head around how it was working with live versus what you then import for the,

for the show. And while I was producing last week's episode, after we're done, you know, I put the new intro on and I'm going I'm getting I'm trying to queue everything up, and I'm just, I'm like, oh my god, I'm not going to get this done. I'm not I don't understand it. And I had to, you know, just stop for a second like, okay, you know, because I have to line up the the in Split kid have to put the right time code in this is all this complexity that came in, which is actually not that

complex. I just couldn't wrap my head around it. And it gave me a sinking feeling like I can't publish the show until I figured this out.

Dave JonesDave Jones

It's, we call it I think we call it scissors as a defense as a emotional defense mechanism. Because because we're kind of scared of his of the of all this stuff to it like, and it's that it's that paradox within all of us. If you've been in it long enough. You sent me that clip of Leo this week and I felt this was sort of sort of tangential to that it was sort

of part of the same thing. If you've been in In the information technology world in any capacity for long enough, you eventually get, you eventually have reached this paradox, where there's something in you that loves the technology and loves the problem solving of it, and then the innovation and the creation of the thing. But you're also so pessimistic and so aggravated at it all. You're like, it's like these two things that just feel like it like inextricably linked you hate it

and love it at exactly the same time. And it feels like you've ripped your brain apart.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I hear you, I hear you. Well, there is something. So I'm extremely optimistic. And I know you're not pessimistic. But when it comes to podcasting, and I've been dreaming about this, not just like, for 19 years, hoping we could make this happen somehow, but I'm actually having dreams about the new category of podcasts that are going to come on the scene. That is podcast with music and music is so powerful. And there is so much creativity being put into music not in the mainstream.

Because the mainstream is very formulaic for a whole bunch of reasons. It's it's truly one of those systems and is broken, it doesn't work it does doesn't even work for for your typical mainstream artists. They're not making money on music, they're not getting value returned. Me, it's just a rat race you've got to be in you've got to turn around in that tub. Otherwise, you can't even do anything. It is it's like a turd in his pot.

Well, that was a that was a translation of a Dutch ism. The Dutch ism is unrolling and pisspot which means it's just swirling around like a turd into pisspot. I know.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Love that the Dutch word sound is just is just the word Pittsburgh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Pittsburgh. So next week, you're on vacation yet you're taking the day off deal. And so that means there will be no board meeting however, that will be the launch of boosting Rambo booster Graham ball will I'm gonna launch it in this time slot. Nice and I'm gonna do it live and do it live and we'll do it live.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Where are you? Are you gonna do a feed drop? A feed drop?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

What's a feed drop?

Dave JonesDave Jones

Where you put your episode and somebody else's feed? No, no, no, no, the booster ball this Instagram ball in the podcast and

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I hadn't even thought of that idea feels icky doesn't feel right I would prefer that mean I'm I have boosted grand ball.com I haven't haven't launched the website yet I got work to do. Which which by itself will be interesting. But I have in my head I know what I'm going to do. And which means I'm going to freewheel it because that's kind of the whole point. What I want to get back to is that I'm playing music or playing music at that moment because of how I feel. I want to

have the interaction of the chat room. So I will always record this before a live studio audience even though most people probably not going to release until Saturday. I felt like Saturday would be an interesting day to release the music show

Dave JonesDave Jones

because you're going to do it live on Friday at noon and then you're going to do you're going to actually put it in the feed on Saturday.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, well the feed drop will be the release of every episode My plan is currently is to have it on Saturday so if I record the show on Wednesday night or what I mean whatever it is that's what that's what I'm going for. We'll have to kind of see live experience Yeah, the live experience will will not that will be kind of like like a like a rave you know, it's like oh the live experience is happening. You get you get the flyer you get the flyer oh it's

happening okay. Yeah, but it won't be a set time is you have to hear about it through whatever channels and I got even more enthusiastic when Sam from wave Lake sent us this note you got to note too I did is great Yep. And he said young kid trying to make it in music came to Bitcoin park with their parents last week I saw the wavelength demo decided to take a chance on value for value love to see it thought you might so to the outside world is starting to see what's going on here. And

I thought wow, how cool is that? I mean this this is there's two tracks one which is very sweet. You know, she's young, but a very sweet kind of girly, you know, slow track and the other one is a very kind of poppy track. So of course it being Friday podcast and to point out I want to play the play the

poppy track, obviously. But I have other things TJ sir TJ the wrathful who's been making all these cool mixes for no agenda and carrying the keeper and he released his music, which is the dorsals that's I'm going to play that on the on next week show on the on the first Bookstagram Ball.

Dave JonesDave Jones

I mean, this isn't her day.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh is good is good. I don't want to play that on

today's show. I want to play this this young woman who just said you know, hey, I'm gonna give it a shot and the reason why is a because I liked the song B and I and there's not a lot of music I really don't like I mean I have an eclectic tastes but I'm open to everything and it turns out that most people are no don't say oh, it's horrible I would turn it up there's not there's not much of that it's not a lot and but I also want her to have a good experience because literally

what Sam is saying she decided to take a chance on value for value. So why don't we show her that her chance pays off love it her taking a chance so if you're listening live me you know you've got to use curio caster I know that works for sure in the

live experience. Otherwise we now have we've got fountain we've got pod verse we've got pod friend we've got curio caster you can do it directly from the from split kit in fact after the fact go back and listen to it and boost her because I really want her to have a good experience and to give you guys something special I'm and I'm hoping that this this podcast booster Graham ball will be like almost like every other project I do where people start to send in their own gene

goals their own sound imaging their own cool stuff so that we are making this together I did put something together myself had a little bit of fun in the studio oh really kind of like kind of like a show opener you know just threw some stuff together and home I'll I'll turn on her block right now so everyone can get ready for for the block and we'll take this little break while we play this song with my opener started off boosting is love that's how I want to start a show so she dropped by the

Bitcoin Park took a chance on value for value let's let her see what a good choice that was

Unknown

on a mind Good day to the corner of the room that you want us to have all given back to cry like a little Boy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Ainsley Costello, the chair On top podcasting 2.0

Dave JonesDave Jones

What a song man that's a rad song. I love it.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

It's like a little Taytay you know a little more rockin than Taylor Swift. Yeah, I like that's a great

Dave JonesDave Jones

tune man. Yeah, it's cool. It says she local to Nashville.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I think so. I don't know. i This is the one thing I'd love from wavelength because I'd love a little more info on each artist. You're linked to her, but maybe there is I haven't just really looked for it. But I'll need more info for and it's like I know what's going to happen. People are gonna be sending me music from all over the world. I know how this goes. Um, so what do you think my opener by the way?

Dave JonesDave Jones

Oh, this kid's great. Really good. Yeah. You did all that yourself. Like you put it all together? Oh, yeah, we did you have to record anything new or just use old clips? Yeah, no, I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

did the in there. You hear a boost to grandpa. Grandpa did that. Literally like that?

Dave JonesDave Jones

Night? Like that tune has a real Paramore early. Paramore. Oh,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

S Yes. Oh, yeah. Where they thought about

Dave JonesDave Jones

before they suck. You did a great job on opener that's gonna keep

Adam CurryAdam Curry

now this one. So I have all kinds of things already, like tracks and SATs, you know, all kinds of cool stuff I can say. Now, I didn't mention this on the last show. But I have decided and this will make it even more fun. It'd be this in a way plays into what you were saying. But I really want to try this. I want to release this on IPFS podcasting.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Okay, I'm trying to put by the way, I'm working in the background to try to put together some guests that we can talk about IPFS podcasting. And so we can have like a roundtable on it, you know, and I've got the own the weak link. No offense, Cameron, but the weak link is Cameron because he lives in the middle of like, the middle of the woods. Oh, yeah. He lives in the forest.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Thoughts. So he lives

Dave JonesDave Jones

in a lane to in the middle of the forest shanty? And he's just he just told me when I contact him, he's like, he's like, Dude, my internet's so bad. I'm not sure he's like, Well, you know, I gigabit internet, Ethernet soon, but

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I can bring him in on the phone. I can do a phone link.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Oh, you can? Because you get

Adam CurryAdam Curry

on the road. Yeah, I can just bring him in on the phone. Like, no problem. That'll work. Okay, let's do it. I mean, I could probably even filter to make it sound pretty reasonable if he's on these on, like a modern phone. But a flip phone will work. I don't care. Well, whatever it is. Yeah, sure, we'll do that. So IPFS 444, pod IPFS podcasting. IPFS podcasting.net. In essence, all I do is I upload my my track, well, I I have to create a feed which will do with sovereign

feeds. And I still have to kind of put the whole process together in my head. But the bottom line is that it will work

in all podcast apps. Then he set it up now that if you pin a feed and and hosts the cache the pain I guess, the assets of that feed them which I'm not saying this, right, but if I add a split to IPFS podcasting into my value block, then whoever whenever i Whenever a request comes into IPFS podcasting.net I think it's whoever at that point serve the file maybe I'm not sure but anyway, it gets split up episode and that goes to the to the people who are hosting the the track itself. Okay, so

Dave JonesDave Jones

there's a lot more but I say there's there's a lot more love and interest for IPFS within people in podcasting than I realized. And the more people I talk to the more people are like have an interest in trying to get it to be functional. Yes, Jay like Jason every podcast guru, he's got BFS guy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So I want to be the guinea pig I want to be the canary I want to be I want to be the thing that it'll be scissors you know we'll be running with scissors as always, but I think why not am

Dave JonesDave Jones

over as your SAM over pod fans. He'll

Adam CurryAdam Curry

do it. Boy by the way. I forgot I forgot to mention pod fans. Every single piece that we do is implemented on pod fans. I am convinced Sam will want to be a part of this with the IPFS part. Oh for sure. So I'm super super excited. I said I had dreams about this. Dreams. And and there will be more shows there's more shows coming with guys getting ready and there's music being uploaded Suzanne Santo is coming next week. Suzanne Santo she's a she's a she's an actress kind of

turned musician. She has a record deal but she you know she She hates what it's become. She's a she's a have like a very beautiful kind of folksy singer who plays a badass strat. I mean, I've heard her do solos unbelievable and she and right now she's think she's six months pregnant and we went to see her do a gig and she had she

Dave JonesDave Jones

just burnt she was wearing out the fretboard with a with a with a baby in the oven. Yeah

Adam CurryAdam Curry

baby in the oven and she had her sneakers on underneath her hot hot black dress. Nice and her husband Nick he is the guy who created produced wrote two detectives you know the the the Netflix series that was a huge hit the one that did it True Detective to detect the other one with Woody Harrelson and, yeah, okay, so, so and they're just they moved to Austin, they they escaped California. And so I've been talking to her about this, and she really wants to get

involved, she wants to release some music value for value. You know, so in that case, I mean, they just come in to hang out but I really want to give her a little walkthrough. I'm convinced that she will write some music that will be specifically for for value for value, just you know, just to get people going, you know, get some get some names and show that cuz you know, she made this is like, I got a, a million streams, I got 80 bucks or something simple, it's

insulting. It's insulting. She says she really has to do gigs to make any money on it. And she just likes doing it because she likes doing it. But she wants value. And it's not a it's not about how much money it is. It's about just a faceless, you know, dashboard from from Spotify, you know, it's not not the same thing as getting a boost to Graham.

Dave JonesDave Jones

But this goes back to my depressing PowerPoint is there we have to be the we've we've we're here with with a catcher's mitt, we're catching, we're catching it. Everybody who exits the technological system we're catching, we're

Adam CurryAdam Curry

catching, oh, we got you. We got you know, we got we got you.

Dave JonesDave Jones

We just set them down gently on the bed of podcasting. 2.0.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So when I hear this stuff, I just get so excited. I just like, oh, this is so cool. I like it. I like it and, and going back to the to my opening statement that the strike is really going to open up so many opportunities for people for frustrated. It's all it's radio and television artists to you know, it's not just as podcasters is all kinds of people who are affected by the strike. And and I think that you

know, late night television is over, they're done. It's you know, that's been off air for two months, people have already changed their behaviors they're looking at, they're looking at tick tock before they go to sleep for their for their little laugh their little hit, I don't think that will ever come back. It was always already pretty dead. You know, the numbers just really aren't there. And I think people are very easy to switch and they get used to stuff and they hear something that is new

and fresh. And they hear podcasts. And luckily, we have a much less crowded market right now. There's not as much new stuff being shoved in your face because the podcast industrial complex is sadly not really working out too well. For them, for them. I'm not dancing on anybody's grave or anything. But you know, it's just really not working. I was funny. I got I got a pitch from Google podcasts, which was a new one a new pitch.

Dave JonesDave Jones

What Yeah, I mean, for for what for no agenda, or

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it was not even clear. For what show this probably from no agenda. And I can share some of this because I wound up signing an NDA, just to find by wanting to go one step further to find out what it was, oh,

Dave JonesDave Jones

what they're really doing well, well, the

Adam CurryAdam Curry

NDA was really like the most vanilla. So it's not from the from YouTube themselves. But it's from a guy. I won't name isn't it? We'll just call him Pete.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Who was a paid from YouTube?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That yes, Pete from YouTube in London. And I believe because he found my name and email address in a EC two, which is, you know, I think was shortage where I had an office. So he somehow thinks I'm a UK based podcaster God forbid, you know, he researched me right? That would be stupid. So he's a strategic partner, manager, YouTube, Google, LLC, London, UK. And he sent this through different avenues including LinkedIn. And, and, and so you know, it's Hello. That's it.

Hope this is. At first I'm like, this is bullcrap. But you know, the, it's poorly written. It's really It's so poor what Google is doing because this is not really a person who works directly from YouTube but they have consultants or strategic partner manager with Ever that means so Pete says, Hello. Hope this email finds you. Well, my name is Pete. But I work on a team at YouTube that helps podcasters launch and grow on

the platform. I'm reaching out to you as I'd love to share the details of a grant, we'd like to offer you to help ramp you up on YouTube along with an X with an access to our RSS. So right there, I'm like an access to our RSS. I don't know what you're talking about. What does that even mean? To go through the details? I will need to send you over an NDA that will one prove you're talking to Google and engage each other to keep confidential the information you and I will be sharing. Would

that work? If so can you confirm the name of the signatory and email address for the NDA? If there's any doubt in my on my identity, you can check my LinkedIn profile, see that my email address domain is google.com, which is not falsifiable. Looking forward to hearing back from you. Thanks. Best regards, Pete.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Wow. Sounds a lot.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah. All right. Well, I'm interested now because I keep for a week now I'm hearing Cridland talk about YouTube launching podcasts in other countries like this is part of it, or what is it and it's poorly written? The English is not great. And like, what is they doing? So okay, but I don't answer right away. Because I had to think about it and like, Oh, whatever. And I got busy. And then I get another email. Hello. Following up on my previous email, I'm happy to have a first

call before sending the NDA. We are not asking for exclusivity. We have an RSS feature, I can give you access to it. We're happy to give you give a special grant. There it is, again, because feedback is a gift if you're not interested. I would and I would like to understand why we can give you a grant YouTube has a huge audience and revenue incremental opportunity. I'm happy to share your thoughts with the podcast team. Thanks. Best regards, Pete.

Dave JonesDave Jones

So that's, that's three occurrences of we're gonna give you a grant. Yeah, really, really hammering that one home,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

right. So I say, Well, you know, I'm kind of interested in this grant. You're talking about pi Adam, thank you for your answer. But I'll need to send you an NDA to provide you with all the details. However, let me provide you with

some context. While YouTube is probably my primarily known as a video first platform, we've observed a growing interest in podcast and recognize the immense potential for podcasters to reach a wider audience, generate revenue, and even create a more immersive experience by incorporating video into their podcast episodes. To further develop you YouTube podcasts in the UK, we are actively seeking to enhance our catalogue, with the highest quality podcasts available in

the market. Oh, here it is such as no agenda. We are not requesting exclusivity, but rather aiming for content parity with other platforms. Our ultimate goal is not to redirect audiences from other platforms to YouTube. Listen, this again, our ultimate goal is not to redirect audiences from other

platforms to YouTube. But to offer you increased reach and exposure through exposure through YouTube as a versatile platform, podcast music and videos with 2 billion users every month, we understand that uploading content to another platform can present challenges, which is why we are prepared to offer you a grant and provide access to our RSS feature. This is intended to facilitate the content upload process and offer additional support. To go further, I kindly request you to

sign the NDA. Once that is complete, we can schedule a call to discuss further opportunity. So I get the NDA. And the NDA basically says anything you already knew before we were talking before this NDA was signed, is fair game. So hence all the emails I was happy to read. I can tell you that the grant talk kind of wasn't the first thing that we wanted to talk about.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Okay, wait, let me let me let me let me ask you, did you talk to him? Invite him on the phone like no person? No.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Because he said, I signed the NDA. I was like, Okay, let's have a call said no. Tell me about the grant. And these guys, they don't know what they're doing. They don't give a crap about podcasting. I can say this. That, you know, that I believe it is their mission. It was not explicitly said, but I believe it is their mission to just get everybody to do video. And I think you can get a grant if you want to go down that route. But I did not have any discussion with him further

about it. And then I said I'm not interested. And he said, wow, okay, well, would you tell me why and I told him why

Dave JonesDave Jones

value for value. Did you talk about vase? No,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I said you're a sinkhole. You know, you just I think I have my answer here.

Dave JonesDave Jones

You can we Is this where the exit interview? Why Why would you not like to have our grant? Because you're a saint. Oh, no.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, though. The grant the grant was really not the grant. Wasn't I can just tell you the grant was like, You know what? not buying content knob, you know, in certain circumstances, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So that kind of went away because of how I felt it. But I can read you what I wrote. The reason why, let me see hold on is that my sent emails here we go. Podcasts are meant to be distributed via an RSS feed that the players apps, websites, etc, are to consider the source of

truth. When a show is added gets added downstream. The opposite is also true. This is not how Google operates their podcast offering in quotes, you're asking podcasters in effect to abandon that system. Google has a horrible reputation when it comes to respecting and supporting RSS feed. See, Google Reader admits this. Google is calling these non RSS feed day shows podcast which they are not since that specifically means

RSS based distribution. In my opinion, this is a hijack of the term podcast at best and a disingenuous use of the term to build up a competency on the backs of 1000s of developers and content creators over a span of 20 years. It's not a good look, I cannot support Google calling as offering podcasts then will in fact, speak out against it. And, and then he's like,

Dave JonesDave Jones

Did you follow that up by saying, Oh, can we talk about the grants?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

And then he said no, because he had asked me to share why. And then you know, he comes back says I think there's a misunderstanding around our intention. That's a shame. But thank you for taking the time to share the feedback. You know, the whole discussion, which I didn't discuss anything we discussed, this confidential guys, great, have a great day. And I said it'd be equally helpful if you explained my misunderstandings. What did I misunderstand about your

offering? And he never answered? No, of course not.

Dave JonesDave Jones

That's stunning. I'm surprised that he never answered that. This. So this is this sounds like this is just me, this is me. This is me talking. You have not talked to me about any of this. No, this sounds like just an extension or a redirection of the same thing that they were doing before, which was they had a grant program, where they were supposed to supposedly going to give popular podcasts like $50,000 to start or something like that dangerous,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

the number of video interesting number to start doing

Dave JonesDave Jones

videos. So I'm assuming that that that that program just became this program. And it's basically the same thing. That's an interesting

Adam CurryAdam Curry

assumption, which I cannot talk about. But I think that assumption is definitely interesting as an idea.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Right. So this this is I've got an ISO for this. Oh. So that's why

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'm excited. Yeah. Yeah, so I'm excited. And I would just like to remind us that calling this podcast is just lame, it's not Google podcast, they're not launching podcasting anywhere. If I am, and this is one thing we need to discuss, if I add something to my feed, it needs to be added everywhere. The the converse is true. And we need to talk about

that, because we had an issue that was confusing to me. If someone takes something out of their feed, or changes, something that also needs to be reflected downstream, this is actually a problem for us. Because we don't necessarily rescan the entire feed.

Dave JonesDave Jones

So I have a lot of, there's a lot of his law here,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

let me let me let me give the makeup of the background so people understand what happened. There was a hair on fire moment, like, oh my god, someone's getting sued if this still available on the index, and we have to get rid of it and as has to be taken out. You gotta do it. This is what creators want. And, and I actually misunderstood initially thinking what so someone's deleted something and I mean, do

they delete in their feed, it wasn't even clear to me. And, of course, for sure, it'll take any any platform or any index, some time to reflect any changes that are made. But there's ways to trigger that and there's, there's, there's assumptions people have. So I know that by the way, when I screw something up in my feed, it's bad. Me or the I screwed up. I screwed up a good and I didn't I didn't know what happened. The end it just and thank God, you know, lots of people jumped in and said, Hey,

you screwed this up. And you know, Stephen has now made that a little bit more foolproof and sovereign feeds but And eventually when I when I fix things properly in the right way and a GUID is one way, surefire way to do it, things do shake out down the line, but it takes several days. And it's my fault. And it's my problem. But the way this was presented was like, Well, you know, podcast index is no good, you've got to do this, you've got to do what creators want. I'm like, hold on a

second. Take it away.

Dave JonesDave Jones

The the reason that we don't do this in real time. What I mean by so what I mean by is like, somebody publishes an episode in their feed. And then let's say a week later, they delete that episode from their feed. Why does it still show up in the podcast index for days or weeks afterwards. But the reason we don't do this in real time is because it is. It is expensive from a performance standpoint, on a database. The episodes table is the most active database is the most active

table in the entire database. It has about a row at any one given time, it's got about 120 million rows in it. If you when you do a delete when you issue a delete a sequel Delete on a table it temporarily locks the table because it can't allow any changes to happen in the table until the Delete is finished and locks the whole table. Yes, delete is an atomic operation meaning Yes, it is it is a touch, which sounds like a Beastie Boys song, atomic operation that that must

complete before anything else can can then proceed. Because otherwise you could you could potentially be updating a record that deletes right out from under you. You could be halfway finished updating a title and an episode and then the episode just disappears. So deletes are always atomic. So you have to so it it temporarily locks the table from rights in order to complete the Delete. Well, that means if you do it in what we

have is not we have nine aggregators. We have nine aggregators that are doing about about 2000 fields per minute of scanning that is a lot of deletes. And so, if we you can see it happen if I enable if I enable this functionality, which the code is there, if I enable it, what you will see is the aggregators are chugging along, and then once every minute or so everything stops and ask your question. Yes,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

when I reset a feed or I'm sorry, rescan a feed does that. What does that create? If episodes are missing, do those then have to be deleted from the episode table?

Dave JonesDave Jones

It when you rescan a feed the first thing it does is removes all the episodes. Not recently when you when you reset a feed,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

rescan. I just want to understand the difference between rescan reset so rescan, it just looks for something new and refreshes it's not not going back in time and looking at everything or is it? No, it's not.

Dave JonesDave Jones

That's a reset. The reset says look at every just basically put it exactly back to the way it is in the feed right now.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

So that does require deletes, it deletes everything at that moment, and thus locks the date of the episode table. Yes. Wow. If I'm powerful.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, so like, if you were, if you were to go in there, and let's say let's say that there's a podcast with 2500 episodes in it. There's plenty of those out there. Sure. If you issue a, a feed reset on that. It's gonna look to the episodes table for maybe 1520 seconds. Wow. Which

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is quite a lot. Quite a long time actually.

Dave JonesDave Jones

And so it's more it's more pronounced than you think. Because what happened? Let's take you take no agenda for example, you keep was it 10 episodes and feed it anytime?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, it's much more now ever since the whole goodness. I'm afraid to even look how many I have a lot. I should probably prune that sucker or paginate or paginate. I don't know I gotta do something.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Don't do that.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, I'm not doing anything. I'm not

Dave JonesDave Jones

touching it. So but there's plenty of feeds out there and you used to be one of these where whenever you add a new episode You pull off the old get to row run correct window of episodes, yes, there's many of those. So when that happens, there's so many of those feeds that do that. We're locking the table all the time. So what, what I've done, I've had various ways of trying to solve this problem.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

40 by 140 in there now, by the way,

Dave JonesDave Jones

for 40 episodes. So I've solved this problem various times in the past using different methods. And the, the thing that works the best from a performance standpoint for me is that every time a feed updates it looks at, it looks at the oldest episode, pub date and the newest episode pub date. And then we have a cron job that comes along periodically, and prunes everything, all the episodes older than the oldest pub date that exists in the feed. And it's just a lazy

process that happens. And it's very lightweight and does not hit the database hard. It means that that process can take a while, like, so compare our compare our hosting and budgetary constraints. So we have we roughly spend roughly right now about $620 a month on hosting fees for virtual machines. Let's compare that to mark overcast, who spends 5000 plus dollars a month. Yeah, right. He has. He agreed. He said one time recently that he aggregates roughly a million

feeds, we aggregate over 4 million. Yeah, so you can see the difference there, you can overcome this problem with sheer horsepower. And money. We don't have that. So we have to be wise about about the way that we allocate the things that we do. So what the standpoint I've always taken is, if that we're going to do this lazy process, whatever that process is, we're going to do this lazy, sort of, you could call it like a sweeper, you know, it comes along after the fact and cleans

up the mess. We're gonna do this sweeper, and 99% of the time, that's fine. There's going to be 1% of the time or less, where somebody is really concerned about something and wants something taken down immediately. Right. In those cases, they've always just emailed us. Yeah, we've we've done a feed reset, right. And it's really not a problem. And that's the only reason that I brought up the archive.org thing is I'm like, I'm not so sure that there's legal problems here.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I mean, well, first of all, no, under Section 230, we are, in fact immune from any type of legal issues. So is in America, mind you in America, so is every other app in America, etc. That's why section 230 exist. That was the whole point doesn't mean that I that I don't want to service people. They don't want to help them. And also, you know, sort of bemrose actually said, quite appropriately, the public Internet has no delete button. I mean, that is ultimately true.

You put it out there. That thing is cached somewhere for good.

Dave JonesDave Jones

It is I mean, like, that's Yeah. And that's what I'm like, Well, we're very responsive to somebody, if if I want something taken off archive.org I need I can email them and get it taken down, but then they're not going to look for. And I know that our purposes aren't the same as archive data. We don't want to be the archive of podcasting. No, but but

Adam CurryAdam Curry

we're also not we don't have the files or anything like that. I mean, we don't have any of that.

Dave JonesDave Jones

But the language that this has come up before, not just from James, this has come up from I think Daniel J. Lewis, also said that there was some sort of legal problem and I just don't think there is I don't think there's a legal issue with caching content. And and let the only time you get into a legal issue is if it's if you if the Creator asked you to take it down and you don't, then you're then you're violating

DMCA and other things. And then then it's a problem, but I don't think I don't think just simply being slow to remove a cached copy is any problem at all?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

No, that's why I said hair on fire. Yeah. And also hair on fire. urgency, makes people make mistakes, and I certainly misunderstood what was going on. It's like what is happening? I mean, I didn't understand I mean, we're all I had to do really was just perform a reset, and then been would have been fixed. You know, like emergency coding like what?

Dave JonesDave Jones

And, yeah, I don't just just to be clear, again, I don't want to catch this stuff. If somebody deletes it from their feet I want to go I want to go from the into Sure, sure. But it's sometimes I mean, like, I don't know, we got constraints. I mean, we're gonna do the best we can. And, you know, that's just got to be the way it the way it is. I mean, if people want some taken down, they just just gonna have to, like, count up their email.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I can't wait to see what how Todd's new project is going to work when we talk about that yet. Does that. Tell me about this? You're on the email.

Dave JonesDave Jones

No, no. Is this the thing that he said? We can't talk about?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, yeah, but I mean, can you tell? Can we talk about it yet? Or we still can't talk? Is it? I don't know. I've lost track if we could. I mean, this is Todd. He tells you I can talk about it. Boy, I got. I don't know, he didn't put us under NDA. Okay, but that's gonna be fun. Anyway, yes. Sorry. I brought it up. I do get one other fun thing I want to talk about, which I thought was kind of interesting. player.fm. Are you familiar with familiar with player.fm?

Dave JonesDave Jones

Why do I know that name? Well, it's a podcast

Adam CurryAdam Curry

player. It's a podcast player. Yeah, but I don't think they have they have 2.0 Things I believe. Are they on? Me? Check? Check. Let me see. I thought they were

Dave JonesDave Jones

on the apps play me

Adam CurryAdam Curry

check. Because when they they hit me up for this great opportunity. And then I said, Oh, do you have any podcasting 2.0? Let me see if I see it here.

Dave JonesDave Jones

People drop something on the on a pull request. And I just did, but they don't really interact with us. So don't forget, forget who they are.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

See them here. They may not well, anyway. They they because they know I like having my email address in my feed because I get these things. And I find that interesting. I don't mind. Doing that player. FM player FM is one of the most downloaded and highest rated podcast listening platforms available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store reaching millions of unique users per month. It is owned and operated by Maple media, a mobile app company based in Los Angeles,

California. The player FM app enables listeners to enjoy their favorite shows and discover new ones through a seamless cross platform playback experience on mobile web wearable, smart devices, in car and in your apps. sponsored content. So they have so they we offer direct advertising packages to help you connect our engaged audience with your show. So they have all these packages that you can buy from them to promote your show on their app. You can get you can platinum, it let's see if we

were to get a two week flight sponsored content package. Well, let's go for the bronze starter test package. Platinum sounds better. Platinum, okay. We get put in the Discover carousel, too. Yeah. They also have a whole onboarding. So was the onboarding was kind of interesting. Whereas the onboarding piece, new user onboarding, your podcast is featured during the onboarding process, introducing your shows and attracting new subscribers. I thought that was really

interesting. So if you send someone say, hey, try out pod verse. Here's the link, you know, it's pod verse.no agenda.com.net, dot whatever. No agenda dot pod verse.the.fm. How about that, then you get you get the app, then then no agenda will be highlighted as, as the first show the minute you get the app. There's just a whole bunch of interesting things. I thought that these guys were doing that a lot of it's achy, and a lot of his expensive

Dave JonesDave Jones

cars and the guy was Hopland it was the platinum cost.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh my god. $7,000. Oh, you get one to 1.2 million impressions, three and a half to 5000 Plays 10,000 to 15,000 subscribers. So I guess they, they keep doing something and they force people. And that's seven grand. But it's not so much that I thought some of the some of the I put the link in the show notes so people can take a look at the Google Doc.

It's just interesting for some of our app developers to think about I mean, the idea of having an onboarding system that takes people to my podcast when they onboard through it, or maybe and by the way, this works perfectly well with value for value. mean you've got fountain giving away SATs you've got beef pod fans is I've been wild pod fans really should look at this because pod fans basically already has SATs waiting for you as a podcaster.

That can be done you can do I'm sure Sam and put all kinds of packages together. Maybe Maybe Sam is behind this company. I don't know it looks like a SAM deal, to be honest. But it's just smart. And I just thought you know this whole idea of discovery and all this stuff. So you can buy this discovery from these guys. But I think being able to send your listeners to a place which gives you a bespoke personalized onboarding experience was interesting. Was I agree interesting thing that

that people could do. And you know, and it looks at this doc, there's a lot of different things that they do. They give you it kind of like a pod page, which I like, I like pod page, I pay for it for carrying the keeper.com. We don't have a website, we just feed it our RSS feed and boom, we have a website point, the DNS ad, it's good to go. And of course, another thing that can go down, you know, obviously, but they have all

these different features that they give you. And so you can get all these additional features based on your based on your RSS feed that can be right in that app. So is this just stuff to look at is what I'm saying? I was pleasantly surprised by it.

Dave JonesDave Jones

I'm looking at our page. So on the player.fm if you look us if you look up us at the top, it says podcasts worth a listen. It's kind of like right in the middle of the patient. They're like dropping an ad for another podcast on our podcast page. But it says over on the left hand side of this podcast Supernote pod content provided by Adam curry and podcast index LLC. What am I chopped liver?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Where does that come from?

Dave JonesDave Jones

I don't know. Don't exist on this page. Now. If you gotta know, it says Adam curry and John Dvorak.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Well, yeah, I mean, let me see what let me see what a show info on a second. Maybe there's something the show in what a show info keyword keywords podcasting, media software, media type podcast. Don't have anything else in there. Let me see owner info.

Dave JonesDave Jones

They must pull it must be pulling out of the owner, the iTunes owner or something like that tag? Well,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I just added Dave Jones to the feed owner. Sorry. Sweet. Yeah.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Makes me happy. Yeah.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I mean, I don't didn't do that on purpose. Obviously. I was trying to find a way to ding them. The podcast index, present podcasting. 2.0 upgrading podcasting. Is that in there anywhere? Because that's what we have in our feed. And that no, no content provided by Adam curry. So that should then change theoretically, the Adam curry and Dave Jones sometime when I guess maybe when I publish?

Dave JonesDave Jones

I guess it's in the description? No, no, it's not in the description in the Yes. In the description tag. I don't say that upgrading podcasting thing. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

but that doesn't surface and I really don't see any any 2.0 features here.

Dave JonesDave Jones

I mean, if you could get seven grand for for just some.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

But forget, forget the money. Oh, interesting, similar to podcasting 2.0, then I see no agenda pop up there. So they're probably cross referencing me.

Dave JonesDave Jones

They can know. I mean, there's there's lots of yeah, there's lots of opportunity for here for I mean, you know, we that apps needs podcasts and people know, apps need staying power. They need revenue

Adam CurryAdam Curry

is what they need. But stand up, there was a stand up for your podcast that it wasn't so much about the money part, because whatever. I mean, I guess someone's gonna pay that kind of cash, I won't. But I liked the personalized onboarding and some of the other things that we're thinking about. It's just, it's inspirational for some of our developers to look at just see what those guys are doing.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, let's say Nathan said that they did. The maple media owns a whole mess of apps in various industries. And one of their lines is like an equity app. Play.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Oh, I'm sure I'm sure I'm sure. Yeah. I'm sure. Should we thank a few people. Dave Jones. Oh, yeah, sure. Let's look at a couple of booths that have come in live where we've been doing the show or live and lit air boob 808 from Mr. Robot. Mr. Robot. Mr. Robot says YouTube, the centralized censoring platform wants to get into podcasting. Yeah, right. What's new?

Dave JonesDave Jones

What's what's obviously did not sign the NDA.

it's not on the pad for some reason here we go. Oh, and that's that's not well I'm really all over the place. Oh hey, we tried this striper bow Steve Webb 7777 Great sound he said that Steve the OG God caster checking it nice. See dubs with 9999 I think that's also for Ainsley.

over the gifs man. There was something else I read think blueberry, where we was talking about something earlier before we started the show. He says he was thinking of rigging up the boost bot. So that if if and the boost bot and the ISO bot so if it caught a certain word, it would automatically boost something it's just very trippy. So it was like rosebud, then automatically a boost would fire.

Dave JonesDave Jones

This is going to bring gonna break something I

Adam CurryAdam Curry

know it's gonna break something for sure.

Dave JonesDave Jones

It's gonna be there's gonna be a boost Inception that just drains every

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Alright, yes, this will eventually go wrong. Short road ducks from blueberry spent a summer at Middleton plantation in Charleston, South Carolina.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Speaking of tagging the trickler Christopher I've seen is a he's working the city's still working diligently to put together your daily source code or coffee.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I know. And he sent me a whole bunch of requests, which is cool, because you know, I had all these different locations the curry castle, the curry condo, the bunker. And he wants the the Geo coordinates so I'm going to get those forum to use the the location tag. Oh, yeah. Now he's, he's got it. It's very nice. I told him no value block. We can have that because I played licensed music and all this stuff. Yeah. So he's not going to put that in. And I think I'm going to give

him a server space. So they can upload everything. I'm very excited about that. It'll be a nice piece of history that can live on in perpetuity because I love the trick. Yeah, cuz you know, void zero maintains all that so that'll be around for a long time.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Below the trickler we got let's see we got some Yeah, we got to pay pals we got Marco coming in. Speaking of Marco and the Linode debacle. We got $500 from market

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Sakala 20 blades on the Impala Thank you Marco. Thank you really appreciate that.

Dave JonesDave Jones

See it? Who was it? Was it? Oh, source source day he said that? I need a pop filter and my puppy

Adam CurryAdam Curry

doesn't bother me. Okay.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Get one if I need one.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Do you like when you're excited? You'll get a little puppy. I get potty all the time. I mean, what Mike? What are you using us Ohio? No, I'm using the RT 3320 Well, then you're just as Poppy as I am. It has a built in pop filter.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yo, baby. Thank you. Thank you very much, Todd. When can we talk about your secret project?

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, give us give us a timeline from Da Oh, let's see what Okay, here we go. I guess it's a booster booster grams. Okay, Captain egg head. 2222 says pod versed. Pod verse beta can time split.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Ooh, nice. Nice. Okay.

Dave JonesDave Jones

I'll give that a shot. Today when I get back and do so. Cast ematic Franco's trying to he's working on time splits. Nice. I've got to put some thought into that, because it's going to be hard for him to do remote item lookups

Adam CurryAdam Curry

because he doesn't have a server.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, and so it's gonna take some thought I mean, for sometimes it's gonna be not a big deal. But if there's a feed with a whole bunch, it it could be a burden

Adam CurryAdam Curry

burden on the app because it has to scan all that stuff.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, he painted out some scenario where there was going to be like 40 Something lookups you know, and it was just like, Whoo, that's that hurts. So I've got that on my to do list to sort of like think that through and see if we can simplify this process for him. Because the the apps that do their own thing and don't have a server I mean, we you know, this stuff has to work for them too. Because those are those are good apps.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I smell a shim coming.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Dave JonesDave Jones

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Can I ask you a question? For a second here, Dave? If you sent me your clips in a zip file? Yes. Have you sent me? A an archive of a chat you had with the Apple Store?

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yes, that's on purpose. Yes. That was potentially something I was going to talk about. But I ran out. Okay. All right. Well try this on the cutting room floor.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Too bad. No big part for you Apple Store. All right, good.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yes, discard. Let's see. Oh, see Dubs. One on 102 podcast index websites as a log seek is my favorite outliner I've heard about log seek and add blocks that I have not used it. It's supposedly it's like an encrypted what is it? I know it's spelled funny as ello je s EQ logs. It gets like an open source thing.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

And it partially because you were grepping logs you were doing some big log Griffin 17. Grip,

Dave JonesDave Jones

grip and logs and log notes increase understate? Yeah. Community. Yes. It's like a it's like an open source note sharing outliner thing but it's all encrypted. Drop Thank you. Okay.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Pick up your sand

Dave JonesDave Jones

drop that drop my thing. Dropped it again. Alright, I get our Davis at 710101. He says DuPont versus correction typo from previous origin of my knowledge of podcasting. Well think they're out of order because I didn't see your previous one. Oh, here it is. I found it. Our Davis 8722 to 22 Row ducks through pod VS is boosting for another exon board meeting. Thank you for your courage. Exxon. Thank you. Thank you. Mike Newman 1472 through pod fans. Hey, now yay, there

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it is the finally getting some pod fan boosts like that and like seeing that

Dave JonesDave Jones

boosting through pod fans for the thrill of it all.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

week I got I got my login. I'm all done. I'm rocking and roll. I'm connecting with Sam. I'm following you. So yeah, I'm figuring it all out.

Dave JonesDave Jones

And get it. I'm noting up some bugs. I'm gonna send them to Sam Oh see anonymous 6928 through breeze today.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I got a note from from Roy said, he said sorry I've been MIA. So all kinds of stuff going on so I got to catch up with him. That would be my daughter was here so I haven't had time to call him back but I will we'll catch up. Yeah, he stopped boosting the boosting is not loving.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, man.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

That's bad overboard. busy guy.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Justin Dejon do 669 sets. The pod fans this is pod fans payment. Well, the pod fans is ramping up here. Hey, how

Adam CurryAdam Curry

about that? I love it. Nice.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Our Davis 1443 pod verse he says boosting for the destiny of podcasting. 2.0 and V for V music. Open music Wait, Destiny? Great town. A real foot Tapper.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yeah, this was the music we played on the last show.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Jade was Sarah J. Sarah Jade. Yep. Okay. Oh, our Davis 1440. Again, he says the dot eath domain services run by the Ethereum foundation and is called the Aetherium namespace.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Okay. Good to know. So good to know what to avoid.

Dave JonesDave Jones

That's right. Our Davis all over Oh, he's all up in our DMS today. 1987. DuPont VS is in the boardroom. Adam and Dave, I think the whole verify ownership tag is being over thought. There already exists a standard that can do this for both independent podcasters and podcasters. He's posting companies. It's called PGP and GNU privacy.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Cool. But you can have verification through PGP.

Dave JonesDave Jones

But I guess it would be just like very verifying ownership of an email. If you put your PGP is the key if the feed head is PGP public key in

Adam CurryAdam Curry

it? Oh, well, there's a good point. There's a good point. Da

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, you would need an E and it had the same issue. Right? You need a key to key escrow and all this stuff like no you don't need as you don't, I mean key escrow. Like don't you have to have a private directory of public PGP keys, it's

Adam CurryAdam Curry

you know what, I'm gonna stay away from this because the minute I open my mouth, like you got it wrong, Carrie. That's not how it works. But I use I would say I get one to two encrypted emails per day. And and I use the what's the what's the dog email, app canine mail, which incorporates it nicely. And I've been able to keep my key ring with all my you know, with all my my my peeps, now easy to add someone's public key, and it works pretty well. I have to say, it's not much of a

burden once you've done it a couple times. And so yeah, I mean, and from time to time, someone will want to verify and like that's a pain in the butt, actually. Because you got to post something and do this and do that. And okay, you're verified.

Dave JonesDave Jones

But it worked out says the RSS feed is the escrow.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Yes. That will make sense. The feed is the escrow that's where you put the where you put your public key.

Dave JonesDave Jones

And that means that podcast index would be the could be a directory.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

We could be your public key directory.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah. There's nothing much more centralized than a public key. strew is

Adam CurryAdam Curry

think about something the thing Yeah.

Dave JonesDave Jones

He says you just put the public key in the feed, then you give the user something they sign it with their private key and the Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right. I mean, that's yeah. So yeah, it's interesting. Yeah. Or asymmetric. Let's see.

Adam CurryAdam Curry

Alex gates just came in with 12,000 SATs already considering adding PGP keys to the feed for pod ping verification.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Okay, well, maybe we can push all this together. And I'm liking this. Yeah,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I'm getting excited.

Dave JonesDave Jones

By the way, Alex, I'm not I'm not streaming my webcam on the OBS because I started this. I already had everything hooked up. And if I plug in the USB, it blows up my computer after I do it after the fact so I'm running headless today. Just yeah, just Yeah, making sure he knows that. It's not a problem. Okay, all right. Josie Jean been 4000 says says Oh, good grief, apparently Oh, my phone pod verse. Now we got back together, but we're waiting to get underground from their

misbehavior before actually streaming sets again. Here's a little something to compensate for their ridiculousness. To be clear. This is actually a peb CAC. Err. Okay, what is Pip?

Adam CurryAdam Curry

I like that a lot. Yeah,

Dave JonesDave Jones

when I come back from vacation, I would like to, I would like to go through the tags that we have so far. This is a proposal border. All right. I would like to go through the tags one by one, maybe not every single one. Because some some don't really need a lot of discussion. But at least I would like to go back through these. And I feel like there needs to be some discussion around each one of these tags, and how to make sure that we are properly wiring these up correctly. I'm

not sure exactly how to explain it. What I'm saying is like, the spec exists. And we have software using the tags. And now platforms using the tag, things are happening. And I want to make sure that we do an overview of each and understand if we're putting these things together properly in in making them work as they should

Adam CurryAdam Curry

call it a platform review.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Ooh, ooh, a PR P

Adam CurryAdam Curry

everything's an acronym. If Life's worth living, it's worth acronym. Ising.

Dave JonesDave Jones

Yeah, it's because I feel like for a good example, this cast ematic Franco trying to implement,

Adam CurryAdam Curry

make sure it works for everybody. Yes, we

Dave JonesDave Jones

gotta mate. Yeah, we gotta walk through this and see, okay, here's the funding tag. What is what do we expect to be? What was this thing created for? Here's how these apps are implementing it. Whatever it is, can it be linked to other apps? Excuse me? Can it be linked to other tags? I feel like we just need to do a systematic review at a PR and figure out where we're at. We make sure that everybody's on like that because I need to know this stuff, too. Cuz I'm about to implement I

gotta go back and implement phase six tags in party time. I don't even have them yet. Pod fans kicking my ass. I don't

Adam CurryAdam Curry

have more more tags than we do. Yeah, Mama

Dave JonesDave Jones
