Episode 153: Chapter HO

podcasting 2.0 for November 3 2023, episode 153 Chapter everybody once again for your weekly board meeting of podcasting 2.0 Everything happening in the modern podcast space. You Yes, we are the only boardroom where a vote of no confidence is a good thing. Everything happening your podcasts index.org with a namespace Of course all the

The servers ahead of time.

Oh, I'm sorry. My

body is down.

Man, you're still sick, huh?

Um, for for Tiny Tim, I've gone I've gone all the way back like that little. I have that little little crutch the with the stick?

Under the under the under your your armpit stick?

Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna blow my nose. Like, seriously when I'm blowing my nose. It looks like a crime scene. It's like a murder scene around here.

I think you have this every year. Don't use kind of a annual thing for you.

Oh, yes. My annual health. I got. I got COVID on Halloween. Oh, no. I got shingles on Halloween. Oh,

that was that was three years ago. Three years. Yeah,

I had, yeah, my annual appointment. So I'm trying this new thing. Okay, this is great.

I bet it's great. Okay, what new thing do you have going on?

So I go to the I go to the end. User, here's my typical. Here's my typical strategy. So I'll give it a week. And then if I'm not getting better by day seven,

you call 911.

I just drove to the emergency room. I go to the end. And it's like, it's always about, sorry, it's a bacterial infection like sinus infection, antibiotic. You know, Bada bing, bada boom. So I go. And I talked to him. He's like, hey, you know, I would like to try something different with you this year. And I'm like, okay, all right. And he's like, we got this compounding pharmacy. Usually, usually I like, I like those guys. Yeah. He's like, we got this combat. And so it's

allergic reaction is

something dude. Oh, no. My face is like, my face is like bright red. Looks like it's all chapped and red. So I had to call them the pharmacy and like, Hey, I'm having some sort of reaction.

Like you have leprosy.

So now I'm walking around on the Tiny Tim crud, you know, with like, the red face. And I'm like, you know, is it's a disaster over here.

You're on the prayer list. Brother. This is no good. We got we got a call on the big guns for this one.

This is my obituary.

He was tiny, but his name wasn't him. Hey, man, I want to start off by saying something. I I saw what Jason was doing with podcast guru. And I'm like, you know, I really ought to try podcast guru. Now I'm on an Android derivative, which is known as Graphene OS. So basically, his android android derivative derivative. Holy crap. podcast is phenomenal. Great. Yes. I mean, it's, it's just, I don't know what everyone else is because I typically I'm using pod verse

I don't know what his I don't know what his build, like environment looks like. I mean, Android is natively Kotlin I think now, which is better squid Java

and it's just the May I have a couple may give a couple of pieces feedback for Jason since I'm talking about it one I get node lit alerts I don't know if that's the if I should be expecting it but it'd be live items it does find it oh

no, it shows I did not get the best signal for this show by the way. Well, I sent

it out you didn't get a bad signal Let me double check make sure everything's okay. Yeah, saves published Okay, let me double check published all right. Let me send that again. I've had been having some some weird issues like Bookstagram ball Okay, Dred Scott didn't get it either maybe I maybe I messed it up was fine. It could it be you know, gosh, I don't know who knows. But but I know I haven't been getting lit alerts. It'll show up fine. Like episode is live in two minutes.

I just got it on. John. On the podcast index like

pod pod podcast live. Yeah. Which is a surefire way to know it's working. A couple of things. And I've noticed this in general, this is also for that get Albey guys when connecting my wallet to a podcast app and the only two I have to do that in is well now it's actually curio caster pod first partners. And and now podcast guru. This is set up sometimes man it can take a long time before it finally goes

Yeah, I agree. It's it's generally like in pod verse a lot of times I have to read a lot. I had to re log in verse a lot. Yeah. Quite a bit, because I'll just notice that the boost buttons not showing up to go reconnect, I'll be well,

and that's another thing, podcast guru, not my expected behavior. Maybe it's not a bad thing. But you have to specifically opt into every podcast to sense that. So

I'm like, I'll have an account, so to speak. Well,

well, when you're streaming sets, it'll say it right there. And you can set it manually for your session. But that's not it doesn't keep it going for the next session. And if you're not paying attention, like oh, I wasn't streaming any Sass, I feel really stupid now. So and I understand that, you

This is liquid death sparkling water.

Oh, sweet. What's wrong with you? Don't drink liquid death. This is not good stuff. This

is leftover from the Halloween party.

Oh, this is horrible. Is it all caffeine or amphetamines or something? It's just it's just pure water.

Okay, but it's got a huge skull on it. Makes me feel

feel feel good. Makes you feel ready. Ready for the journey? Yeah. So that there's also no way to see the splits. And the and here's the here's the big one for me. The wallet switching? So it'll say in the amounts and it'll say T S. Which is I mean, I'm like, oh, that must mean time split. Because I'm listening to a podcast with with music. But yeah, you mean say something else. I mean, this is wallet switched or whatever. or, you know, or show me who else it

let me add that cast. Cast thematic, you know course, is only that cast ematic like I don't have I don't I rarely ever have my lb wallet disconnected and cast ematic I mean, I go into it, I go weeks without having to, like reconnect my wallet, okay, oh, I'm not sure what Franco's doing differently than what maybe Mitch and Jason are doing. But in it, but it's like that, that connection that token or authorization token unless Franco's just renewing it

interesting yeah, and and also if you don't know it's disconnected you don't know You know, that's another thing Yeah, I think these are these may be general comments. Everyone should take a look at it like I know it's not like you're busy or anything doing stuff. There's nothing going on.

That's what curio caster does to you hit you get confetti. Yeah, right

away. You get comfy? Yeah,

you get satisfied and eat. Exactly,

exactly. And I want to welcome my buddy Cody from Kerrville who got his sidestream music podcast up on RSS blue, without without me having to help him at all.

That's real man right there.

I think Dolby does help them out but or if he said Hey, Dolby das listen to what he said. It sounded great. But ya know, I love him for doing that. So he's he does the morning show. On what is it? Now I forgot what the rock of the rock of Texas rock of Texas and man he knows a lot of these value for value guys, a lot of them. So yeah, he's doing it. You got interviews going on all kinds of stuff. So we need a place as a pipeline then yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, definitely. Oh, he's he's

I've been talking with. I think his name is Barry. Is that right? Yes. Barry. Barry. Yeah, I've been talking with him. You know, he's helped him with index stuff and getting set up with API keys and all that kind of stuff. I did not know that they launched That's great.

Yeah. And he has, I think even has a music lookup thing. Just like ours is blue.com has Oh, yeah. You know, I just love that. It's working that people get it. It's like, oh, okay, I understand how to do this. Fantastic.

It tells me that it's not that of course, it's calm. It's complicated. But that's complicated in quotes. I mean, you know, lots of stuff is complicated. I feel this way about activitypub to, I feel like people get really freaked out over over sort of a more a more in depth protocols like that. But they're really at the end of the day if you if you sit

Yeah, and that's and I think there's there's also a general thinking that no one will ever do this is to vie for V is too hard and makes no sense. People don't in fact, Oh, yeah. A little bit of feedback for the podcast weekly review boys. All right, I was doing my show prep. School. This is ongoing, because I mean, I'm boosting I'm boosting and I'm saying you can't do micro payments with Apple Pay. And Apple can't do them. Then James is just like Adams wrong. I'm

Well, Fred said, you know, fed now came out with a with a with a bang and it's just like, I've never seen nothing. I mean, is there any adoption before there

was at a conference in Vegas? Like the money 2020 conference or something like that? Oh, yeah, I think it'll show up. It may be what what x implement but just so you know, it's like it's not it's not a matter of that apple technically couldn't you know, do your account but they don't do your account that's all banks that do that they are only middleware between you and your own bank. They don't have an account has to

be a bank No, I think what x wants to be is a bay Yeah. Are they wants to be good luck. That's but that's different than Google and Apple those there. Those things there Google pay Apple pay all that stuff? Those are Yeah, like he said those are using banks the same way that cash app does

Yeah. And exactly they got they have a banking license, a bank charter, by the way, things are really cracking wide open. Did you see strikes announcement?

Now strikes? thing to me is what is how this evolves into the thing that James was talking about with using dollars, Yes, you bet you pay because I mean, strikes whole thing really, ultimately is sin money, but use Lightning as the as the substrate. And that that is very, that is doable.

But also you can do direct deposit to strike. You can you can wire money, you can do all kinds of things with strike. Now you can set it up so that it be you can pay in lightning payments, and it's deducted immediately from your debit card. I mean, of course, he's on the inside, right? His parents are big in the financial industry. So he's got all the connections in the legality. I'm talking about Mallory. Sorry,

Yeah, I got a buddy that does CloudHealth that's pretty sweet service. Yes,

it's fantastic. It's really good.

He's not had any any trouble with it at all.

Only good, good experiences.

So yeah, I think this like the strive to be to be clear, if people didn't keep up with that as the strike thing. Like what the feature that I was talking about was, you can with the new version of strike you can you know, is like you can attach a debit card to your Stripe account and then you can pay a lightning payment. And you don't have to already have a

Yeah. Yeah. And that that is the way forward and Apple might be able to implement that. I don't know if they will. I don't care. I really don't

you told James Boggs, two and a half years, three years ago, they should have

told them a lot of things. And many left. He's like, Stacy, can do it all. Let her do it.

He was like, How about what do you think about this new Plaskett podcast subscription thing that we're about to do? Like it's stupid.

So I want to talk about Apple in a moment, because two other things I want to mention to our developers. Right now, the breeze SDK, along with green light, these are full noncustodial very simple to implement wallets that are really full nodes that you can use might want to consider looking at those, because we're all on Albie right now. I love to get Alby guys, please don't get me wrong. But it's it's going to be a sad day, when you're going to be answering 100

the green light just went public. Yeah. They just released like, what, couple of days ago? Yeah, as they

say, it's all really simple. And you don't have to worry about stuff. And you don't have to worry about liquidity or any of that any of that stuff. It's worth having a look at, you know, just we should we should have more options available. And I think they're available, but we haven't really talked about him and was just like, Okay, it's implemented, it's good to go. But, you know, and then back to Apple and podcasts, Pocket Casts, I just wanted to say how incredibly disappointed I am in

Apple told us to podcast moments ago that they were about to do transcripts in the podcast in Apple podcasts and they still haven't done it. Scripps is not that mean? Like that's, that's they've already done it in in Apple Music is not like it's not gonna be able to like copy and paste right.

I don't understand why I

did enjoy this. I did enjoy reading the podcast industrial complex, trying to. Yes, I did enjoy reading All of the explanations that we worked with Apple to convince them that their way of doing downloads, automatic downloads was bad for the advertising industry. Therefore, they said that they were going to change and update their tool and they did so we had this we all signed this letter and blah blah. Sure. And then and then it comes out later Apple says we made this change

Well, that is a bring up a good point. And you have some good opinions on this. I would like to say that this latest change in iOS 17 shows how fragile your business model is in the podcast industrial complex, just wait until ipv6, and we're going to talk to our boardroom guests today, when ipv6 become real, and it will eventually mean it's showing up more and more, and you're going to be gone, it's going to be done, whether it's ipv6, or Apple flipping on their VPN, or

Cat?

Do you not see that this is going to run right over you the image and you know, just like Apple waited for a reason to do out this download thing was oh, save battery life. They'll wait for another reason to switch on the VPN. It's coming.

I've got a lot of thoughts about Apple's role in things in you know, app. So Apple, we've all been myself included, have been irritated at Apple for not allowing you to specify a default podcast app on iOS. Yeah, for a very long time. And so, and I have railed about it

anti competitive, really, I mean, if I had enough money, I'd sue them over. It's anti competitive.

It feels that way. And but I've actually started to shift, I've started to see this in a different way. It's still to be clear, is still irritating. And but I think I may understand why they're doing this.

Okay. And why they're doing what?

Why they don't allow that. Oh, okay. So I think it's all has to do with the competitive landscape. So they their apples in the business of, you know, they have Apple Music. They have Apple TV, and they have Apple podcasts, let's just say those are their three media in media centric apps on the phone. And you have Spotify, who has music and and podcasts. And now they're trying to do get into video. You have YouTube, who has music pot, you know, video, obviously, and now

Oh, and I know exactly how they're gonna do it. You're I think you're right.

And if and if we Apple began speaking as an apple podcast insider here, if we Apple allow people to set a default pod, their own default podcast app, they lose people, they lose, they lose the ability to force podcast, open podcasting to be a thing on in the Apple ecosystem. Right now if you want to play in the Apple ecosystem in the podcasting world, your your 99% of the time forced into the apple podcast app, which still uses RSS as his primary mechanism. If you allow

can already predict what's going to happen. And I will make a prediction and a recommendation. One, they're going to expand their own names namespace to add transcripts, maybe chapters. Oh, god, oh, yeah, they're going to add it to their namespace. My recommendation would be to also recognize the podcast namespace. And by the way, if they do that, I'll start a lawsuit. I will, I will, I will sue them. Yeah. I think we can't wait.

As long as they're assholes.

illegal. It's illegal in America to be in a hole

that's what I got. That's what got Alex Jones. Yeah.

Exactly what happens in

boys what it boils down to people, like, why do these just nail

we'll see, but it will be beautiful. If they just said, You know what, there's this. There's hundreds of 1000s of feeds that have transcripts, hundreds of 1000s of feeds that have chapters, maybe start, you know, easily and I understand they want to control the experience. And, you know, but play with us play with us become our friends again. To Steve died, it became horrible. He wasn't the best. He really

And I don't wait. Let me refill my wallet.

Let's bring him in because we're already way into their into their territory. Welcome to the podcasting 2.0. board room. We have Mike Dell and Todd Cochran from blueberry. Hello, gentlemen.

Happy podcasting, gentlemen.

Yes, it's a nice nice boardroom. You must have painted.

Thank you. It smells a bit so it's a little kind of freshly painted vibe. Yeah. Good to have you guys back. It's been a while.

Yeah, we've been busy. Very busy,

very busy. Very busy. Tired, of course, is my crack dealer. Every single time that new media show comes on. Like, I'm gonna do some crack. I'm gonna do some crack. I'm gonna sit there and be aggravated and get sick from it. But I want the crack. I want the crack. But I

could offer to fill your Satoshi bucket today. But let's not talk about the company that should not be talking about

Good luck. Good luck. Good luck with that. Good luck. Hey, I had a question for you right off the bat. Just you know, since we're in the transparency of the boardroom Sure. You mentioned about a month ago I think that your value for value numbers you reverse engineer it because you know you got a split from from every payment that your customers get and you said that podcasters had received about $10,000 value for value. Yep. Which is phenomenal I thank you

My board just fire me I'm still accountable I you know, there's certain things we don't talk about.

But value for value numbers are okay but add numbers are not okay. Like you know, because I talked about the payout I mean not not the total amount but the payout to

to podcast, I suppose we could I think the challenge is, is that we? I tried to be careful. Yeah, no. And you never know what's going to trigger a board member to get upset at me. The the podcasting 2.0 stuff, they kind of let me run with scissors with it. I'm sure when that

is it is 10% The number of value for value versus ads? Is it less than 10%?

I will say that the programmatic ads is many multiples of value for sure. Yeah, six times

seven. Come on. Next question.

Todd just joined up or something?

What did you think about my, my apple opinion, Todd?

You know? Yeah, here's the thing about Apple. Over the years, I've learned how to how should we say, as Apple nicely for things because they never talk whatever people say about Apple making a decision. It often comes from gentle persuasion, say, hey, we'd love to see you guys do this, it would help us this way. And then they kind of go, Oh, that's cool. They'll never they'll never say anything committal. I call it contractor talk. It's just like, you know, they're

they can't respond either. You know, that might be culpable in some Whoa. But part. It's really, it's really, it's really sad. It makes me sad. But also, it just makes me want to position them as your granddaddies app, you know, because that's what it is, at this point. I mean, look at the magic of, of some of these podcasts, apps, look at the phenomenal things are being done. And by in no small part, thanks to blueberry. Now, there's content that wants to be

There was, you know, there, they are definitely what I call a legacy app, you know, there. There's still a big player, but not much changes over there. As far as, you know, the customer experience, I should say, I

think it'd be, I mean, think about that. Because what what would Dave just said that, you know, they want to have that competitive, and they want to keep it fragmented. So Spotify is over here. Think about what happens the minute Apple says, Oh, by the way, we've implemented all of these new features that are available to you on all these podcast hosts and look at all the cool stuff we have now. Spotify, you know, they'd be they'd be caught with their pants down.

If they did announce that champagnes on me. So yeah, but you know that. That's what we can hope for. And And how about Pocket

Casts? What's wrong with those people? Seriously? What's wrong? Matt? I don't understand. We had meetings, we, we laid it out, there was interest, we showed everything. And then you know, it's like, nothing, nothing. You bought a product? And here's a great way to differentiate.

Yeah, I talked to some of their team members over there, too. They were talking to us about power press a little bit, and then they just kind of go silent.

I think you know, the people, the listeners do choose podcast apps, based on features. Like, you know, there's yes, there's a large portion of podcast listeners that did obviously just go with whatever the default app is. That's, that's that is a thing that happens for sure. But there are a sizable number of of people who they tried to take indica switched to a different app. And they're like, well, this new app doesn't have this feature that I have fallen in

sorry. You're right. My mistake my mistake you get a pat Todd is crackling though man you got like some discharge have Putting and I mean, that's electrical discharge.

Benson weird. We're on fire here. You know I, Apple though they're fully about the listener experience. And we understand that all these new features are added to the listener experience. But they do things their own way at their own pace, and they're never committal. So your guess is as good as mine. But a TED in the rest. I know you guys are listening. But meanwhile,

may I make a recommendation? Next time Apple decides to do something just revolts like the removal of email addresses and whoa, whoa. No, stop, stop. Just we got to we have to start fighting back.

And as a fellow support guy, yeah. I feel

it's, I mean, at this point, it's gotten to the point where delete my podcast from your platform, like, Okay, done. If someone else says it was, if it was wrong, we'll bring it back. We'll bring it back.

Fine bounds checking.

All right, you good done. All right, but don't like you

were talking about listeners picking an app, you know, I, I use overcast as my kind of daily driver. But for, you know, value for value shows and all that I use pod verse and there's things in pod verse that, yeah, that don't exist. Exactly. You know, exactly. I have auto playlists. And it's really hard. To do that in covers,

all I do is I just pick it, I pick an app and I just promote it on no agenda promoting podcast guru now. It's taking away actual Apple market share no problem.

It's just like podcasters move into different podcast hosts, they don't once they get into a podcast, so so pretty comfortable on a small percentage might move at some point is something really supercharges them. But listeners the same way they get an app, they get comfortable. So what I really go after those brand new listeners saying, Hey, if you're new, you know, go over there to podcast apps.com and grab yourself a new modern podcast app, they don't know any difference. Training from

I agree, that's the most not to call yourself previously on the training business that we don't train our audiences. But it makes sense to just say, hey, use this app, because it's, and I think still, one of the top reasons to use a modern podcast app is pod ping. Like how many people are like, Yo p will be posting screenshots on acts like oh, great show, look at this art, and people go, Hey, man, it's still not an

Why do you think that is that people don't switch podcasting hosts more often? Because you're obviously right, it's a small percentage that makes this switch. And then you have people that switch and this switch back? Like, what do you is it that they just come forward the UI with the payment with the way the payments work? Like what do you what do you think that's all? Well,

oftentimes, and Mike can probably speak this more than I can, they will leave us because they've been told by a advertising agency, they have to host a specific platform and say, well, we'll leave the lights on for you and about 75% of them come back. But those that come to us are our Georgia technical podcasters podcasts that understand all of these

Sure. And what what percentage of your customers do you think are using really using the 2.0 features and know their habit and and are actively engaged in in even telling people about modern podcast apps is it best subtenants More

and more I've noticed you know I'm getting more questions I know what do I do for this you know I've I've shown people how to do value for value and you know live God bless you they put a whole network on that's live 24/7 And I put that lit tag in there for him or helped him do it and they've been getting a lot of traction with that

I should run the numbers but again I would say sub 10% For sure you know

it's not much more than that Yeah. If that yeah, it new incoming customers I know so yeah, in fact people moving to us there's a higher percentage because the you know we do get some moves big specifically because of these features

in his that come in. I'm guessing that's coming into like podcasts mirror and podcast and power press more than blueberry proper are

good, you know a little of everything you know lot of the mirror the new mirror customers are are there for that reason. But, you know, just it could be their way or publisher system or how's that? How's

it going in general podcast mirror? Do you? Are you seeing uptake of that?

Yeah, we're seeing. I ran revenue report on it the other day, and I'm pretty happy with month one. And the goal, I have a goal number, you know, in the first quarter on it, so we'll see where we hit. And we're, you know, we're watching where people are coming from and we have had some SoundCloud people move.

Yeah, good. Good. I love that you have that guy.

But but mere Yeah, they're mirroring there's, there's

no, yeah, yeah. And do they do use the value tags? Or the what are they using it for?

Yeah, they're using the value tag. So you know, it's and again, it's, it's really about word of mouth of getting that information out there. Because, again, you probably have 99.9% of people that put stuff on SoundCloud, they had no clue what value for value is. So

what I'm seeing is everybody needs if you have a musician in your life and artists in your life, and you're listening, and you know what's going on, you know, these are the people you need to help and it's very effective. I mean, I saw Steve Webb, who's an OG God caster, onboard, like four different artists. And yeah, he's walking them through it, you know, he's like, Okay, here's your, here's your wallet.

Yeah, Steve is in my email every once awhile saying, hey, when's value time split? And so where am I? I am I'm getting grumpy

about them. Release. Release. Release time.

They can't let me so but Buzzsprout released pod roll. today. Are you are y'all doing pod roll?

We're doing we're doing pod roll. We're doing Valley time split. We're doing remote item. What else are we doing? Okay. I think there was one more Yeah, fourth,

block block. We're doing the bottle.

Okay. Yeah, cuz, because but because the pod roll tag is like, I'm, I'm just chomping at the bit for this. Because that,

that's that that's the of the discovery mechanism we're looking at, right,

man, it's just gold, it's the discovery gold, like the, the the listener side of the equation is more difficult. Because apps don't want to share, you know, listen, even and not they have this weird thing. They don't want to share it anonymized listener open, you know, feed lists and things like that. And plus, you know, it's a little clouded too, because you have all these feeds that people subscribe to, that they never

I'd love to have it in sovereign feeds. Even though even though

the we got a demo on Wednesday of everything, except for Valley time split. So now the Dev is working on that. So I don't know if we're gonna release pod roll and remote item first, and then very time split. I don't know what how they're gonna sequence it out. But I made a couple of weeks. I'm got my fingers crossed.

Sweet, sweet. Awesome. Yeah, I'm looking forward

to that. And we got to get back to the top of that list, you know.

stopped trying to compete with Samsung, I think that's possible.

But you know, it's what I love that what's happening is we're seeing more it's small right now, of course, but I truly believe the music. The value for value music podcasts is a category and it's a category that will bring in people, new people. It'll bring in existing people like Cody

You know, our, our challenge is always we have two development tracks, we have to update power press. And then we also have to update our dashboard. So we actually have to do twice the work to deploy

an eternal level mirror now so the area

mirror to Yeah, that is your, um, I'm going to I want to ask this general question about your hosting customers. When or not, maybe not, it's not your customers on ask about your, the feeds in the podcast that you host. Do you have a sense for? What what would be a breakdown? If you had to just guess of people that just do podcasts like this couple of people talking? People that do more highly produced podcasts? People that do maybe audiobooks? Like? What do you think the

Oh, they're definitely either solo, or have a guest or they're two hosts and have a guest. It's really good. And we've never really ran the numbers that way. I often look at it as a split between what we call dashboard customers and those who are in power press that runs about 70 3070 to the power press side, and not all those hosts with us. So I don't know, Mike, you talk to the customers every day what what I would say?

I would say probably 80 to 85% are hobbyist podcasters is what I call that, you know, aren't really that interested in making money. I mean, yeah, a little a little going out to dinner money be good, but that's not their main focus. And then, you know, we got another 10 or 15% that are, you know, more serious about it and trying to make a living and her try, you know, are doing it for some corporate reason, or government debts reason.

So there's just some some folks that solo or some folks talk in or maybe a guest interview show,

I bet you How about your corporate a bit corporate is bigger than we think over there. Yeah, we have

a huge corporate,

corporate and some government entities universities,

is that is that usually private feeds or is it like internet type stuff? No, we

have DOJ, we have Senate House Representatives Voice of America. We got it. And there's a pile. There's our pile. Yeah. Bunch. Most most of those are public podcasts. Let's get DOJ

on value for value. That would be

why not Oh, VOA should do it.

Propaganda arm of the US government. Why not? Let them promote something for us for a change?

You want an eye opener? They have an incredible large number of shows. I mean, I know I

know. They're doing Oh, I knew that. Yeah, for sure. You know, you could also tell them like this is a great way to track stuff you know, this is a great way to see who's really listening percentage but

it was it was a list might close to 400 shows like yeah, right close to 400. And I bought war my elbow pushing the monster on the desk getting them set up.

Is it the Department of jet US Department of Justice? They're

paying the rent Nice. government paying nice.

A the DOJ is already selling Bitcoin. So they've got they've got away

their confiscated Bitcoin. What

if we get a little hobby?

Is this justice.gov? Is that what we're talking about? Because

I don't I don't look up there. We just they just have justice.com?

Yeah. Okay. So you don't look at it because you don't want anybody to know that you're Googling for justice. Justice.

That many podcasts.

You guys said something earlier that you guys said something earlier that triggered me the ipv6 you want to talk about that?

Yeah, I do. Kind of. Yeah, yes. Yes. Yes. So the challenge

with ipv6 is originally ipv6 was designed that everyone would get an ipv6 for life. Well, yeah. gonna happen and now they matter of fact, they those ipv6 addresses get reassigned. I mean, like, it could be every 10 minutes. You get a new ipv6 extension. But what we've found, and I think I'm not an expert, Dave, you can correct me if I'm wrong. I call him ochils. The if you have like, the fourth, Octo, that's the one updates like rapidly, and but the three prior articles

Yeah, yeah, that's the first do the first section is the ASN and then everything else 228 bit address?

Yeah, so the if you had like, 2001 2001 2001 1000, the 1000 changes and 807 65 Boy 43 on a daily, really regular basis. But those first three, pretty much lock in those don't move too much. So yeah, it's gonna, it's going to change the Istat systems quite a bit.

And that's, I mean, that's mostly mobile right now. Yeah, the

road has three mobile needs, they have to move to ipv6.

It's mostly outside the United States to its UC Asia is picked up by V six, huge. I mean, it's, you know, because I'd be before there. If you didn't have an ipv4 block, you know, you can't get them no more.

Right. Yeah. Right.

Yeah, and that's gonna I mean, all of these things, like, I mean, it's just the, the way that the, the, it's, we've been talking about this lately, the podcast industrial complex, really is just the digital advertising industry. And they, they're clueless about how to get off being so dependent on IP addresses. Because this this is going it's the writing has been on the wall for so long. And all they do is just gripe about it. They have, they have no actual solutions.

They kick the can down the road. But I know from discussions I've been in with the IB, and so forth, there are people that are panicking.

Yeah, they shouldn't be panicking. Because the, the, in the specifically I was talking about the IB at their last conference, the keynote, Nga was just talking about he was just bitching the whole time about about Apple private relay didn't know

what keynote was, what keynote was

released in Chrome two.

Yeah, and this is going to become more and more of a thing. Where, because if you think you can, you don't even have to, you don't even have to think very hard about it. If you just look at Apple, Google and Microsoft, you can you can know ahead of time that they're not going to want to let that data escape. They want to use it. But they're not going to want to let

Is this this is Dave, is this not the very reason why Google is going for the VPN, so that they still will be able to track the ads. Isn't that the that has to be the nobody else will be able to? Well, no, but they don't care. So but they're gonna give you a free VPN, basically, I guess, as a part of your experience, and you'll get used to it and you'll like it. And it'll be fast and reliable. And you'll feel good. But then they they and only they will be able to track the the

Now it's so crooked

in my or maybe maybe they'll try to sell it back to the advertisers. How about

this idea? It's a it's a very old idea. But maybe it's time to consider. So we have this wonderful system, we know exactly when someone's listening down to the minute. And if you gave your listeners the opportunity, but if I said, All right, you know what, I want to try something, I'm gonna give you all a wallet, then here's an app with a wallet and start using this. And by turning it on and sending me one Satoshi view will be signaling to me that you're interested in

Oh, there's something there because they're so hardcore on attribution right now.

For value for attributes, and that's what

I'm talking about. But you determine what the attributes are. I determine what I'm going to send along, I can be completely anonymous, I can give you my email address, and all this stuff can can be sent in the to V record, I see Alex gaze, rolling his eyes. But all of that can. Maybe me, maybe it's time to talk about his guaranteed payment record or whatever. I'm just thinking some payment tokens. Can we get out ahead of this? Because I'm not anti advertising at all?

Adam? So do you want to get back on the media buyer training, go to New York and start briefing him because I'm sad, this is what's going to take it's going to take someone going to them and saying, okay, hey, we got a new way of doing attribution. And do you want on this on this train? I'm sure some would say yes. But you know, we have a hard night hard enough time telling them. You know, the story we've been telling them for 19 years. You bet.

Yeah. But listen, I come into the room. And the first thing I say is, do you know who your daddy is? And then we're done. And that's, that's it? We're good. We're good.

I'd rather just see it fail because it's fun or for the show.

No, I'm not anti advertising. I enjoy hearing certain ads. And it should be a way to turn it off to like, you know, for some reason, Spotify still gives me ads, even though almost subscribe for premium subscriber, whatever it does is still get ads. And I'm not interested in Joe Rogan's ads,

I'm not gonna gotta pay Joe, though. So they have to do something. Well, but you

had, something has to give, because the system is broken, the gatekeepers idea is broken. We broke that it's done. It's over that that's not going to, you know, this is nonlinear media. I read by heard on pod news that now what is it to audio boom, we have 1 billion impressions. Well, there goes your CPM rate. Yeah, yeah, hello, that's obvious.

I think you're on this stuff that I'm gonna have to grind to that, you know

what, I'll tell you something. And I have enough shows that I could do this with, I'd be very interested in giving it a shot that I'd be interested in. And yeah, I'll go to New York with you. And I'll go in front of up to one trip in front of the media buyers. And if we can really show an example of how it would work. You know, of course, the CPM rate would have

It's it's definitely something that's got me thinking here. So yeah,

you're right, Todd, but because the attribution piece, that attribution piece tells me that there's a problem. The fact that everybody is now that was at BetterHelp, is now forcing all all their people to use a tracking pixel. You know, this is becoming more of a thing, we hear more and more shows talking about how their advertiser reached out and told them they want them to start using track tracking pixel

and Dave, check it out. With value for value, you just add a split to the advertiser, they can track it, then there's no third party. It's it's the listener determines. Everybody knows the people who are involved in in the in the agreement, it's an open agreement

and pixel it's a tracking Satoshi it's a it's a track oshi

backtracks once trucks he goes, that's nice. It goes back to one simple thing. It's the problem we've had since the beginning, did they listen? Because we don't have the clients I don't that's all it is. That's what they're trying to get the answer did that person

and would also removed the data brokers because you know, what people really want is that why do they want your IP address? That's very, we know what curry does look at all this traffic that he's looking at what he's doing. Oh, See what he does? Oh, he, he sends traffic to American express.com Oh, this is where guy now,

things get things get big enough though even that much data who's gonna sift through all that stuff?

Well, the Oracle, they have a whole business and they have a whole business doing that they sell your time and time again,

I'll tell you exactly where it gets super creepy for me in we had a local, we had a local special election because the house the Alabama State House and see that from my district that I live in, the guy got kicked out for corruption. So they had a special election. And it was between two people. And the that now the district that I live in, is the most crazy drone district you've ever seen in your life? I mean, it looks like, you know, it looks like a spiral graph. It is crazy

that's so that's so well known Dave. Yeah, no.

And so I'm like, but it's most of the time you get like local ads for car dealerships and things like this. And it doesn't really, it doesn't show you how creepy the tracking is. But then every now and then you'll get something like that. And you're like, oh my god, they know exactly who I am and where I live. Yeah, like the

day that it creeps you out day they know who and a household listen to an ad. Okay, so that's, that's, that's the crazy part. But I saw some demos before that. I mean, really, this is why we are hardcore privacy, blueberry, I would never employ any of that.

That's so creepy. There's a new version of Wi Fi, where they're able to map out the inside of your house, using your Wi Fi router.

Yeah, exactly. See where you're walking? Yeah. Well, no, you need what you need as an anchor club advertiser to do this, you know, fast moving consumer goods type type deal. And someone who's willing to try it with you, you could, I guess probably the smartest way to do it is to be nice to team up with an advertising agency and make it there when you know, cut them in for their for their 15% or whatever it is, you know, their their media buy fee. But I think there's I've been in this

a good list,

you can use all of that it's time. The only problem here is we're treating our listeners are our troops and customers as dirt as stupid dirt like you don't count Shut up. You're not supposed to know what we're doing with you. Ah, we're gonna throw this in your face. You're stupid dirt. We don't care about you. And if you because people are smart people like oh, right, you know, hey, look, give me a little bit of value back for letting you this has always been the dream, opt

Okay, I'm I'm allowed to talk about YouTube retards. Not at this hour. I'm going to toss this as an ally.

Let me just answer one thing Ice Cube soup. It's less creepy because they don't have your IP address. They only have what you just give them. Well let me spin on a lightning payment is an animus there's no way to track where that came from. So it turns the creepy upside down. Go ahead, Dave.

So I still just don't think that YouTube is a profitable company. I'm with you. And I don't think they're profitable. I think they make tons of revenue. And I don't, I don't see that they've made it. If they've made any profit it has, it's so small that they're not willing to talk about it publicly, because they don't release the numbers. And if that's the, if that's true, then there that is the largest walled

is huge. The overhead is huge. And you know, you have to just the ingest, and the transcoding of all those cat videos. But even then, it's you know, think about it just think about, think about the Lightning Network, just as an opt in identification system. And who said this, Spencer says his people love getting 14 SATs a day from fountain when they don't get it. They're all up in the telegram screeching about

stat system.

The river, yeah. Yeah, for the Arbitron ratings. But what's beautiful is there are tons of SDKs. There's all kinds of, there's all kinds of programming bits and bobs around for anybody to implement this into any system, any system. And then, you know, people can maintain their own wallet, they can maintain, you know, and it can just be an app means it maybe it's just the advertising app, you know, all of this stuff

you know, I the company that shall be not named and you know, they're raising their prices for ad free. Yeah. And that's going global. At the same time. You know, I know Adam, you can roll your eyes on some of this, but the AI search is going to change Google's complete model on display advertising, and

they're gonna lose more money, they're gonna lose more money, because it's very expensive to have everybody using that kind of CPU power.

And at the same time, I'm afraid those of us that have our own dot coms or FB work that much harder to be to be found, because I think searches is about to be completely destroyed. Now may

ask your question about this. Do you really believe most people find podcasts because of a search?

Do well, we know that we know that

what's not What do you know what? What is? So it's, it's definitely

not number one. It's, you know, it's me telling my friend about podcasting. 2.0 Yes, but what happens, and I can only use my show my tech show as a as the example. I pick up of a percentage of people that come to the website, because they have landed there because I've optimized the search results, and being able to be from my episodes for that episode be found. But again, it's it's a long term gameplay, it's it's like, it's not the 1% No, not at all.

It's not the most. This is why, and let's go right back to pod roll. Let's go right back to remote items to the interconnected RSS. Web of content that Dave is baking up API's for. This is the future of discovery. The discovery is I heard it on a podcast. This is a piece from a podcast, my app lets me tap in. This is the best place to discover stuff. And it's not just search. It comes from recommendations, it comes

Anytime I recommend a show in my podcast, you know, I have audience members say hey, thanks for the recommendation. So it's same thing with the pod roll if I if I had 10 shows I said these the shows that I listened to that I love. If my audience loves and trust me, they're gonna go try a few of them.

Allow me to give everybody an example. I was listening to my buddy Cody. And he's tied into the music scene in a way I had no idea I thought he was you know, kind of a rock popular rock guy, but he seems to be very clued in and He plays a song I'm like this is a great song. You know what, I'm going to play it for y'all right now with a value time split watch it show up in the chat room boost them vertigo kid very appropriately titled pirate radio it's dance break on podcasting 2.0.

Candles

in the show?

lot of booths thanks everybody. Vertigo kid pirate radio just to prove we can still put something on the top of the charts

on the top but what do we have top

175 to 142 today top 140 Does it update every minute? How often does it update? Our Oh, every hour? Okay, yeah.

I've got a whole box of butterfly bandages and smelling salts here. So I may have showed up with these because I thought we were going to talk about alternate the alternate feed alternate enclosure. I'm

sorry, I you know, I, I here's the gavel. Okay, go ahead.

So, you've laid down the the gauntlet, Todd said, alternate enclosure? Hell no. The the, but there's, there's decent discussion about. So your your, I will let you have opening comments. To say why you think this is a no, a no, no do

so it's simple. I understand the reason that you did alternate enclosure, I understand completely understand the argument. But we have trained podcasters for 19 years, to ensure that they have a listing on Apple podcasts, or their audio and video podcasts that they have to have to RSS feeds. And no matter hate to say it, no matter what we do, it'll be a cold day in hell, before Apple will implement alternate

And I'm not totally against altered enclosure but, you know, additive to this would be alternate feed that gives you the option to do it alive you know and that's more compatible way.

Yeah, that's what it should have been alternate feeds excuse me, not alternate enclosure.

Okay, I understand. Now I understand what you're saying. So what you're saying is create two feeds but implemented for podcasting 2.0 apps as a remote item, so people don't have to subscribe to something additionally, they can select that the app would know and would select it internally,

it would without having to actually do the alternate enclosure because we're going to just continue to do enclosures like they've always ever been. It was it was decided a long, long, long long time ago that there would not be two enclosures in a single feed I know things change podcasting

You know, I was I was very anti your thinking and but now I understand what you're saying is like give the the two point the modern apps, the capability to make the switch with the existing subscription by just saying Oh, check it out. There's an alternate there's a remote item here, this is for video.

And it will allow the podcasting 2.0 apps to see those of us that just stay on the one enclosure per deed model. That ability to say okay, this show has five extra alternate beans.

Okay, let me okay, let me let me ask questions. Just q&a. So, this really your main concern is alternate and closure as a video audio mix. You're I'm assuming that you're not opposed to alternate enclosure for those specific use cases where people need a lower bandwidth version of the same media type. So you would have the standard you know 96 or

Now, that at all?

Yeah, there's no reason why we can't have both. That's the thing.

You want to keep your existing customers who have two separate feeds, and you want to keep them that way, because you've trained them that way. And I presume you're also getting paid for two accounts. Maybe I'm wrong.

You're not all hosting with us. But yeah,

okay. All right. Well, that's understandable. And I honestly sounds like a pretty good use of remote item.

Well, okay, so the question to the is this a problem that can be solved with just software so that somebody uploads? A, they have their audio feed, they have their video feed, just in the audio feed, as when they post to the video feed? The audio of the two can cross pollinate? enclosures? Yes, yeah.

Well, we do that. Together. We do that with power press already. You can have one blog post, and put as many media files in different channels, which is different feeds as you want. Okay, so it keeps the workload down when you're doing audio video, the same show,

right, so remote item on the video feed can point to the audio feed Dave? Sure.

And vice versa.

Right, I guess what I'm saying is if the alternate if adding a video source to the audio feed, is is more work? Could you take away the work? By doing it for them when they do when they're already doing the work?

Yeah, well, what will happen is, is again, this will be a set and forget, we'll just say to Hey, do you want your video feed to be a remote item in your audio feed, and I'll click the button one time and what we'll include it forevermore, and it'll just happen when they publish the episode shows like Mike said, when people at least in our system, when they published, when I push publish an episode of Geek News Central, I do one blog post, but there's two feeds tied to the blog. So it's

really it's really using a modern system to fix a legacy problem. Because there's already so many video feeds that people have created. In addition, I presume, in addition to their audio feed. So you implement the ultimate enclosure, which will be the way for the way forward personally, I think, but you can also do it this way.

Yeah, there's no item would be for folks like us that don't want to retrain our audience. And again, the and then that will allow the apps to pick either or,

then in theory, you could have it so that it does both.

That's what I'm saying. Yeah, it can, it can be either been an alternate enclosure, or it can be a remote item, alternate feed, which is video or audio or

all those antique apps working, you know, backwards compatibility.

So there's, you did not propose an actual tag spec. You just proposed it as an idea. Yeah. So

it's an idea. I'm not a bride a dove. So I

went, you know, I went looking for prior art in this pod in a pod love has an alternate feed specification going back to like 2012. It uses the atom link thing, which is, you know, they're gonna get pissed off, because we already were in swap chapters on him.

But Davey, you're already re going to revise remote items so that anything in the remote item is going to have a type. So why don't you just make this a new type gear that goes along with that revision?

Yeah, and I'm just, I'm just thinking, I would read I think long term, looking at in the future, and importing the atom namespace into the unknown. It's done a lot. But, you know, the whole, the whole goal for the podcast namespace is to get is to have something that's holistic and self contained. You know, I hate to bring in a spec and say, Okay, well, yeah. Okay,

our namespace didn't get a whole lot of traction either other than amongst Yeah, yeah,

there's one reason why you know who your daddy is. I mean, that's why you got to know your daddy.

So if you get some, I'm just thinking, you know, I don't want to just willy nilly Throw away prior art. But there just doesn't seem to if it's not used, I don't see that as very much of a big deal.

James is throwing his headset down right now. So I wouldn't, I wouldn't get rid of all no closure. No, no, of course not. No,

I think this is. But I love this idea because it's a complete valid use of the remote item, which is really from for me, the remote item is the future of RSS, podcasting, and RSS in general, the remote item is critical, critical to everything we're going to do moving forward. It's just, it's beautiful. You know, once we get the tools in, where I mean, even playing a clip from we talk about it, but we don't actually

you know, the remote item, that remote item piece, really, I made my whole dev team listen to the last podcasting to Pinocchio from about the 45 minute mark, because, people but yeah, you guys,

you know, you don't like namespace, namespace? You beautifully

explained. Me? Somehow I'm given feedback today. I don't know what's going on. I'm gonna have to check the knobs. It basically is a I think it is I think this remote item is the key to a lot of stuff.

It finally brings in links. Yeah, which, which is what makes the web the web and what makes it decentralized. Because if you don't have linkage between between different pieces of content, then you don't have you don't have a truly decentralized way to crawl from one place to another. So the remote Adam just is it allows you to do what the web's done is it links things together. So like, I heard James on pod news, weekly review, asking, what is, you know,

If you go back to the blog days, we all had blog roles on her website, because it's the folks that we read. And that was our that was our signal that we thought this is a good source of content, always. inbound links to

stuff we liked

is the is the current implementation. Buzzsprout is doing a pod roll. They're doing that as a remote item Dave? Remote item type equals pod roll.

Yeah, it was it's the pod roll tag with the remote item as a child. Yeah. Okay.

All right. And I like what they did over there, if you went look at their interface, the page and how they're displaying that to listeners, and then you know, that's the first step. And then the apps are going to be able to surface that to listeners as well within the app, keeping them in the app. This is it's this is beautiful. There's gonna be

a developer out there who's going to create the pod browser, even though I hate to put your word pod but pod browser is going to be an app where you just go from one to the next from a song to this to that to a lecture to whatever to a book. I can, you know, we need the hosting companies to add the interfaces, but we'll get there.

Yeah, we'll get there.

But I think a lot of this is, you know, going to get away from apps in general, but you know, there's things get cranked down tighter and tighter. It's gonna move a lot of this stuff's gonna move to the just the plain old web. You know, as far as

our PWA is

PWA To You know, because at some point, you know, Apple's gonna say, well, we don't like, x or whatever, and they're out of the app store.

Yeah. Well, yeah, well, that yeah, that's that's in that, you know, we are inevitable. We gotta you know what, what we got from Mitch this past week was that some was the podcast or had complained to Apple's App Store, about Mitch having one of their podcasts on his app. Like they didn't go throughout, you know, they they complained to app review or not. Yeah, yeah. And so they and then Apple reached out to Mitch and was like, Hey, we got a complaint that you have

Yeah. By the way, Andrew Gromit. This is for you, brother. There's your project. The pod, pod browser. Good idea. PWA pod browser, pod attitude.

There's a product we offer to our podcasters. It's called Quick Links. And it's basically the ability for them to kind of have a link tree type of page just kind of shows up other stuff. We're going to add pod roll to that in various different places within the platform. Oh, yeah.

I'm sure pod page will roll it out. Sure. The this is good stuff. I don't know where to go from here. So we thank some people because I've just been getting lots and lots and lots of booster grams. I want to give a couple of top 2100 SATs from Macintosh. Can I throw something out? Please? No. And the next boost I'm sorry. As a podcaster an avid listener, I want one thing to whomever needs to hear this app dev app developers, I believe stop the futzing around, implement cross

Yeah, we need Sam back on the show anyway, yeah,

we do. We do. If he but then you know he'll have two booths during his own show otherwise we know we don't have the income. We guess it's better than I'm Sam on remote taking a nice row of ducks 22,222 from salty cray on how to pod sage slash pod father putting together a value for value music podcast is a lot of fun and a lot of work but I'm having a blast doing it. I was able to use the magic wallet switching technology with RSS blue for my first show. I found out from

Dow it gets pay pals in this one ought to be familiar. Because it's $250 from blueberry podcasting our very own 20

to hit your API more we need to send you some money.

My API get it we've got to speak the devil Franco Celerio we talked about gas medic earlier $100 back

thank you Franco supporting everything. We support each other. I love it.

And we've got a $25 debt no note between $5 donation from Brian Mosier. I don't know who that is. So thank you, Brian.

We appreciate it.

Brian, appreciate that. You got to note shoot me one more we did get some boosts we got 10,000 sets from Star I think star is associated with the web's podcast Right. to I think that's I think that's you know Whitney Webb

oh sorry. Yeah, she's Whitney Webb Yeah, she produces Yes. Okay. Yeah, good 1000

says from store said Table of Contents sanity restored laws.

Yeah, I noticed a number of apps actually handled Table of Contents properly.

Oh, yeah. Those it's it's happening. Yeah. Pod father asks and people give you

Well, I only got one message this week from one person who said chapters are messed up that's a good sign. But yeah, they sent me a screenshot I don't know what the app to show what app is it showing what app that is so we can work on it. Thank you. Thank you Dev is perfect. I love it

up in 1984 4000 says two fountains that being able to remove booths from Chapter image would be a welcome feature I mainly listen to booster green ball either while at work or when driving if I hear an artist like I like I just screenshot the chapter art and then look them up later my free time. Oh that's a good idea.

Well right now depending on the app you use, you can just go into the podcast guru it's the V for V logo it gives you all the songs right there so you can play them boost them screen them I think save them soon fountain does this that's the way to go. Yeah, it saves your screenshot

Jean Everett 3333 through fountain he says got a hard agree I don't want anything but the podcast are displayed I really do not like the booths popping up in place of art cover well, so here's we have talked about this gene been and Franco had a discussion on email that I was included in about

back back channeling

back you know Jean beanies back Chandler you back channeling from the from the lander, Jimmy Carter. So, he's he said, if you have a chapter that has an image, this table of contents equals false. Do you still include The chapter title along with displaying the chapter or do you just display the current chapter title? Should the titled also be hidden? If it's Table of Contents faults?

Oh, good question, I

Dred Scott literally just a yes no. What is that? He says he's the chapter title should be easy. Yes. No. chapter title should be shown. I think the chapter title. So if it's a boost, should it? Should it have a chapter title if it's not a TOC?

Well, I'm gonna say this. I mean, Dred Scott is the previous chapter Meister Yeah, he's the chief chapter architect. And I mean, when he speaks, we listen that that counts for much weight so I'm gonna say yes, no.

We got one thing you know, Dave, last week or week before he said there was you aren't ready to go to war. I think what we need to do is battle armor up because Nick Adams, right, you know, every time and I'm gonna say it. So get your boost ready? Anytime someone says they have a YouTube podcast boost, you immediately asked them either in a comment or wherever he says, Okay, where can I find you on a podcast app? And if they look at you weird, then say, Hey, I'm not going to

I think you're I think you're right. Because I mean that Here's the whole thing. The whole thing is, I'm of the opinion that the whole YouTube thing in general is a scam cooked up by the by the PSE. I agree because the the whole, you read these, read these studies, and they say, YouTube is the biggest app for podcasts for people listening to podcasts. And then you read the next study that says, we know how many podcasts how many popular podcasts are on YouTube,

The average person doesn't know the difference. Today, I was physical therapy. And I, you know, I told him, you know, he asked me what I do for a living. It's I worked for a podcast company. Oh, I watch a lot of podcasts. And I know he wasn't talking about, you know, wasn't talking about an actual RSS feed video.

So I follow a couple of YouTube channels that have so called podcast and I've sent them a note said, Hey, I can't find you on my podcast app where you guys had and they they finally responsive. What do you mean? And I told him so it's again, I think it's a crater site it's a little education listeners are gonna do with listeners are going to do But may we get the the what I would call from a white term Akamai, the smart listeners to be able to start to help us in this crusade?

And let me tell you why. Let me tell you tell you why that matters. in the broader sense for for for things like this show and for the podcast community is that these studies that are show that are trying to conflate YouTube with podcasting, though, they be sure the listeners are going to do what they're going to do. But these studies are aimed at pot the podcast, quote unquote, industry. Yes. And it is it is convincing podcasters of something that is not accurate.

except in the pharma industry.

We should not be fooled, we should not be fooled, they are trying to lock us back into walled gardens. I have to remember that

all right. So here's my recommendation. Stop talking about them. Stop talking about this only behooves them this is the divide and conquer strategy which is as old as the road to Rome. Stop talking about them. That's it You know you want to talk about that. I've nothing to say the here's my i This is my podcast app. This is what I use. This is what I like about it. And here's the other podcast apps I use as the podcast industrial complex is designed to have you Todd specifically

no I definitely have been super positive to help that.
