Oh, podcasting 2.0 for May 3 2024, episode 178 is Friday once again. Hello, everybody. I think we're on summer Fridays. I don't know. I think we're in a good a good season right now. Welcome to broadcasting 2.0 We are the only
boardroom that has value time splits. And we discussed everything happened in podcasting, everything going on podcast index.org to namespace podcasting to.org podcast index dot social and I'm Adam curry here in the heart of the Texas Hill Country in Alabama, the man who lets you query him for up to 10,000 answers and say hello to my friend on the other end the one and only Mr. Dave Jones.

No, it was not a pegleg tightening that was a that was written and tightening the microphone stand just before we started here. It's

like a dentist drill or something is like, is it electric screwdriver? Left?

Yeah, drill this. Yeah, wireless. Do

you need a you need? You need to tighten up your microphone stand with a cordless drill.

It's a little concerning. So it's one of the let's see, what is this? What stand stand is this? This is a electro voice model 309 A

Oh, ancient.

Is it just the way it was just the way

but where does it take a drill?

It's it's one of those stands that comes? It goes under the
back. I didn't want to say that. I saw two in the in the boardroom people. Calm down board members calm down. And once in the board room going crazy.

So it's one of those stands that like it doesn't go up and then come back down. Like, you know what I mean? Like?
I really don't I

really don't know why you mean it low profile? Yeah, like you have. So I guess I'm still okay, maybe let me understand wait for let me what's the model number? Let's just let me type this. Look at a picture. What is what is this? What is this thing?

This This may just this may not be this the stand actually, this may be the little holder for the mic. The shock mount? Okay. Kind of funny, because there's nothing listed on this.

I have. I have the I'm an old school guy where I want my mic, boom and arm coming from above. And it seems like all the cool kids these days have heard that come from below. You know what I mean? So the standard is low and it prompts the mic up. It's holding it from underneath and I'm from oh, gee, where it has to come from. From above. I want it hanging down in front of my face. Hang it in front of my face.

See, let's can't mount okay, maybe that's a that makes sense. I hates an El Gato.

El Gato. Okay. All right. Yeah, here it is. El

Gato. Mic arm LP for low profile.

Low Profile current wave. Oh, gotta

wave mic arm. Yes, yes,

I see it here. Okay, let me see.

So you're a top you're a top and I'm a bottom is what you're saying? match made

in heaven. Yes, exactly. This is I don't like I don't like being a bottom. I like to top I like the top much but it feels like that would get in the way of my hands. Well,

it's the it does kind of sometimes. So what but the problem is I can't my my podcast area is so small. Yeah, that like my screen is directly in front of me. And if I have the if I have the arm in front, it goes right in front of the monitor and I'm having to look around the monitor the entire I mean around the corner. No, this is green.

This is how the pros do it. I literally have my eyes separating around the mic holder scenario. Splits my vision. Absolutely. caps. And I've been doing that for 45 years. So
yeah, this is what it is really annoying.

But like I if I had any other way I think I would be uncomfortable.

It'd be something would be wrong. Yeah, you're wrong. Yeah. It would feel very wrong. The only problem with this L LP mic arm. Yeah. Is that it starts to like so I had to drill a hole on my desk. You know to mount that to me? Of course. Yeah, of course of course. So then it starts slowly over time it starts to sag as the as the the bolt holding it in from the bottom of the desk is slowly unwinds itself for
reasons I don't understand. So that's not good. Like, I'll note I'll all sudden notice I can't move my mouse is hitting no hitting the arm and I have to like go in there and I

realized I need to take another picture of my rig people have no idea I have it. field I have one of the coolest setups you know I have a desk you always have a killer set I had a desk made to order to size exactly for what I want it I'm gonna have to take another picture I gotta clean it up a little bit but

Nathan I can't clamp it to the edge of the desk because there is no edge of this desk this is a desk is an edge list desk it's it's a built in this this this actually built
this whole room during the course of this show. I think some people remember that like I built it around around myself as well you know that at one point I was sitting on a five gallon bucket during the show in there's so many letters like this is like a built in desk in there it's It's surrounded on all on three sides by wall like it's actually built into the wall so they can it's a weird thing yeah all right.

I just took a picture oh yeah a few I see the boardroom I can post that off to put this online just put it into the boardroom

Can you do that

then the benefit homeless

should take picture this it's not a wise it's a basically a weird it is.

Hey, I'm glad you're tuned in and listen to this boardroom as we sit around taking pictures of ourselves and our gear in our podcasting

in general is so freakin boring right now this is probably more well you

know why is because we're not like all the cool kids. We're not doing video as I listened to two hours again, of the new media show. Two hours, two hours about will your usual the trend shows the trend is a trend is that all the kids are doing video

and swipe right. I do. I stick with

it because I love them. I really do. But it's getting harder to love them. It is just getting harder. It's like I mean, was there any other talk except about that? Is Rob Greenlee paid by someone to promote YouTube?

He's well mean he's in he's with stream yard right? Aren't they a video streamer. Okay,

so that's it, then that's his job. Okay, well, I'm gonna understand Come on. Just like the same conversation every week. I'm going to be on a 15 hour plane ride. Video is the way to go. That's all I hear. I did learn something else. So and it kind of made sense. Actually. I learned a lot of things because I learned a lot about the hosting business and and kind of the the sausage of podcasting. And Todd was talking Yeah, how the sausage is made. Did the ping go out? Do we get
the I did the live thing Do I thought I did. Make sure I'm getting no no no, I'm getting I'm getting complaints. Yeah, I didn't get a ping didn't get a ping. I'm pretty sure I

know you're the tag isn't lit. But

I I thought I did it. Okay, well I did

five three now. I mean, it's the tag is the tag still says pending? Now.

I understand but I thought I had posted with the live tag a fault. Okay, then it should go in a moment.

gotta bust the cache. I sent you a picture of my my thing did you

see that? I don't know if I want to see a picture of your thing. We're

talking about sausage. You figured it was appropriate

this Oh wow. You need to put that in the chat.

Well, you can you put it in the chat because you're way to go. Yeah, yeah.

We are. We are disaster. We are different. We are different men. I mean, the picture of my thing is very different from the picture of your thing.

Okay, help it I need my mic arm is much longer than your mic.

i Yeah, yeah, man. You're right on the edge. You got no room?

The lie is horrible. It was so bad.

I do love the bedside lamp. accessory.

Oh to the lamp getting the pig.

Oh yeah, the lamp guarding the pig. I like that. That's a very that's very nice. I like that as an accessory. And that is

how my mouse is directly under the arm that's when I start hitting the arm I'm like it it's sagging time to time to tighten up

bro. Surely you surely could get a little more space than this.

I'm in literally in a closet.

I I've been there many times. For years and years I was podcasting from the clue to remember that was my closet the cluding

Claudio Yeah, this you know the GC this DC the shelf? This above directly above the monitor? Yes. Does it shelves? Yes, that's a shelf and with bins on it. Oh, okay. That is another shelf. And above that is another show.

I'm gonna put these in the show notes since people Like what is going on with these guys talking about? So here's what I learned. All right, first of all, just to reiterate, doing video on YouTube is the trend of podcasting. Remember that it's the trend. What do you say? No, it's the trend. Don't fight the trend. Don't fight all the people who just called up YouTube. That's a podcast. Don't fight the trend. If you fight, you're gonna lose, you're gonna lose, you're gonna lose out. The
industry is moving in this direction. Sure. I mean, I was walking the dog last night and I think I'd let out an audible. Like one of those sounds just as a dog's leave me what's wrong with you, bro? It's going on? It was I couldn't take it anymore. Yes, I mean, this is literally no other conversation.

That's what I'm saying. Podcasting is boring right now. It's just the all of it is boring. So

here's what I here's what I learned on the new media show. That and this of course, in your you recall, we went to the second and only and definitely the last time I've ever been to a podcast conference. You and I went to Dallas and we had a session. Where did

you use it? Second only and last time? Second was I tried? My brain was like,

hey, video, okay, just video. My brain is on video mode. Okay, sir. The second time I've ever been. No, I think it's the first and only No, it's the first and only time of No, no. The first one was the award. No, the New Media Expo. I've been to that. Okay. So this was, but this was the Podcast Movement. And what did they do? And people are surprised when I see you know, yeah. Hey, you know, we did a thing and we talked about podcasts in Tupelo who was the keynote? No, no, they put us in
a little room at lunchtime. In the back. Yes, they did it but but now I remember why. Because Todd is talking about Podcast Movement in Washington DC, where they have course of purchase a booth because this is their business. And and they said we also purchased a session. I'm like, Oh, I forgot. These things are play pay to play. If you want to Keynote you got to pay. You gotta pay as you got to pay a gold sponsorship. I forgot about that's not about podcasting.

We didn't pay. We didn't put any Hey, no. Did it behind the lunchroom? Yeah. And

this is what a just a reminder, the very first podcast, conference tooth, I want to say it was 2007 Maybe. And, and the guys who set that up did for him. I think they did the New Media Expo initially. And I think it was in Vegas. I think I can't remember so long ago. They said would you do the keynotes like yeah, you know, I really don't like doing conferences. But yeah, I'll do the keynote. Okay. So and you'll need to buy a gold sponsorship. What? What now? I heard the
story. Yeah. And so we literally went to Vegas and had an unconference next door. Because it made me so mad. It's like you're not about podcasts and these conferences on about podcasting about making money off of podcasters.

Well, Sam, Sam says he wants to do like an online thing. Did you say that?

Yeah. This is what I suggest that I said, Why don't we do it online? Do it live and lit? And, and now I saw Benjamin Bella Bellamy jump in and say, let's do it in Paris. Okay,

in Paris. Yeah, he pays.

I think it should just be online, make it live. Make it value for value charge? Nothing. I mean, it'll cost some time to organize it. But everyone can do it from home. Now, what more do you need? Isn't this? I mean, if you want to go and hang out and drink with people and spend money then yeah, go to let's go to the go to the movement. Go to the move.

I would. Oh, yeah, I would definitely hang out on a live on a live thing. Or do a session or whatever. That sounds like fun. I mean, I think I think having you know, like doing a an event where there was a there's like a few hours where different people teach different parts of podcasting. 2.0 That sounds fun. And

yeah, into so many questions. Yeah, I mean, how do I set up my wallet? I'm a musician. How do I do it? I mean, all these are great things I was just hearing on the live stream before we start I was listening to unrelenting with Darren and Jean. And, and, and so Darren, he's like, okay, now I have I have my Umbral set up. I got my liquidity. I got my SATs going back and I was like, Wow, you really went out I said,
Now I want to set up wallets for other people do that. Do that with Ellen bits Am I Oh, man, you know, this isn't there's no education out there. So I got to podcasting to.org, which was what podcasts index.org was going to be, had we accepted to Daniel J. Lewis is offer. I mean, I'm sorry, I understand that it's a labor of love. But where do I, where do I learn stuff?

You know, if we did, if we did, that, maybe that's where maybe that's where I can, or we or somebody, you know, maybe that's where the community can help is by doing some sort of instructional content, like little short, little short videos, or something like that, that could be embedded on the podcast, podcasting today. We know that about each

little thing, the best. The best place for this is with the podcast hosting companies. And I find personally, if I look at RSS blue.com, and pod home.fm, those guys, they're doing a pretty good job. They've got some pretty decent explanation of what to do you want if you're a musician, I can send you to RSS moo.com/music. I can all seem to wave Lake. But if you just want to go learn about it, it's really not there. I don't think that's our job, Adam and Dave's
job. This isn't what we're good at. That's why it's not our job. Anyway, I'm just in a complaining kind of mood. So then I heard on T

two.org. Though that's I've always thought that was more I thought that what triggered that whole thing was the was to try to instruct people like people within the podcast world. Like people like though the one the hosts of the feed. That they said that they didn't know anything about podcasting to Dotto.

Well, when I come in and that says, upgrade to podcast namespace. As just the podcasts are my eyes are rolling in my head already.

Can we put a pin in that, by the way? Yeah, sure.

I'm not I'm not saying that anyone's doing a bad job on this. It's just that I thought it was going to be marketing oriented and doesn't really feel like that.

Yeah, well, because I want to come back to least it's something you said upgrading to the podcast namespace reminded me of a comment on pod news weekly review about about replacing the items.

Not do that right now. I just heard that. And they had more complaining, oh, they'll make complaints and more. I'll lead you into complaints about pod news weekly review. So the complaint I had is, it was a little unclear because I guess they had some conversation about music and Spotify and whatever. And on the last episode, and they must have cut that out or I don't know, it was a little confusing. But then James said, If I heard him right, he said, you know, this
has nothing to do with podcasting. And like, Well hold on a second music music is podcasting. Now these days? That now he may not think so. But I think so. If you have an RSS feed, and you have an mp3 in there, or any other type of
enclosure, it's a podcast. And and very appropriately. So the story was kind of about the compensation of copyrighted musical works on on Spotify, that they've figured out a cool way to lower that because they're now a bundled service having added audiobooks, and we talked about that last week, I think, yeah,

that was a genius move on their part. Yep, he does. And

for journalists, I don't know James, like, Oh, we're not talking about I don't know why that was just something weird. It's almost sound like Spotify and called said, Don't you dare talk about remove your Spotify account? I don't know what it was, it was something weird.
Is their marketing guy? Well, that's for sure.

And, and so I come across this, this video on AIX, I thought it was so appropriate. Because as usual, we're right on time with this stuff. So
the second round, coyotes have hit universal. And last week, it was Interscope. This week, it's capital. And I want you to notice the divisions that they're cutting. I mean, they are cutting out whole divisions. And it's from the executive to the street level. And it's mostly in radio promotion, and marketing, and creative. So what does that mean? Record companies are going tech taking all of the personal element out of it very slowly. And if radio doesn't feed the
monster soon, radio is gonna get eaten by the monster. And that's where the next cuts are going to happen.

Completely agree. This is exactly where we're at.

What was this? What is that just here?

So this is a music label guy talking about the cuts that are taking place at add labels. And you know and so it's it's It's the entire vertical. It's from the executive. It's all the radio division. So, you know, how was radio always traditionally worked was it's the discovery mechanism. And kids aren't listening to Radio anymore. You're not discovering new music on radio.

You're just discovering Sirius XM numbers. Oh, no, I did that was brutal. No, I
did not. Oh, they lost

like half a million subscribers in the first quarter. But

they must have had at least a billion dollars in podcast advertising because someone has it. It's somewhere in here. It's 2 billion now.

Somebody has the other 1.8 billion. I'm not sure where it is. Somewhere.

I mean, Joe Rogan has a quarter billion so yeah,

cool. Yeah. So 1.8 somewhere. VMs. Hold holding steady, according to. We're good.

So I bring this up on the day. Of course, that is the unofficial one year anniversary of the value time split. Yes, yes. And we played on episode 131. Happy anniversary. Happy anniversary. Especially to Alex gates. But a large hand in this episode 131 of the boardroom, the 131st board meeting, and we play and be for running with that.
Humongous humongous testicle slicing scissors. Exactly. And we played Joe Martin's high gravity as the very first value times but and, and so I'm really I feel sad for the for the radio promotion people. You know, there's, there's, there's a whole system that has worked for so long and radio but radio. Yeah, okay. They still have $100 billion dollars worth of advertising, I'm sure. But there is such an opportunity that
we're taking advantage of with these music shows. And it'll take years as things usually do. But the human element is there. That's what I like so much. It's not an automated playlist that comes from some deal with the label which comes from some you know, some independent promoter who's paid for ads on stations and the ads are part of the charts and the charts are a part of the feedback loop and and then we'll have everything the old school way except the the drugs and the hookers.
Everything else will be the same. It'll be great marketing, promotion, artists relations, sharing music. When I put together a boosted grand ball. I have another one coming. I go and listen to the other shows. What are these guys plan? What are they picking up on? You know this you

got another you got another ball.

I got a ball come and got a ball ready to drop? Because as I

was noticing the other day that that has been well, its

highest. I know it's been busy. I mean, it we got three wars going on China on deck. Man, he's a busy man. I'm busy man. Yeah, exactly.

There's definitely skullduggery going on across the, you know, across all of this, all of the media entertainment ecosystem pair. So Paramount is, looks like they're about to get. They're about to get bid on by Sony. And

apparently, Paramount has been the value was dropped in half. It's about to be purchased in bits and pieces by Laurie Larry Ellison's kid over at Apollo. What is it really worth? Who cares anymore? Someone told me? I was No, I was reading somewhere, whatever you do, don't sell your DVD and blu ray players, because this streaming thing just might not work out.

I'm not that. Not. I wouldn't be surprised if that was right. I mean, that that would not come as a shocker to me. I feel like I feel like we've gone too far too fast.

Well, when we had a lot of money, it was easy. Yeah, I gotta remind people about this.

Everybody started saying that. That bandwidth was no longer an impediment. But that's really not that really wasn't the case. Bandwidth is only not an input is not an impediment only if you have lots and lots of free money. If you have no free money, bandwidth is a real impediment. If you're if you're pushing if you're pushing petabytes of data a day, somebody has to pay for that. And it is not cheap. And
somebody has to pay for the rights of all this content. In some I mean, it's just not affiliate we went this is similar to this is similar to Kin, the to the Kindle, ebook reader stuff. That went very fast. And it was like, Oh, cool. Look, here's the thing that you can do, where you can distribute books over electronically over the internet, too. A device. And obviously because you the fact that you can do that means that books are dead, and nobody's there and we're never going to
end we're not going to need books anymore. And all books, you can just all the bookstores are going to be gone. This is a, this is a book killer. And then you had people calling them dead trees, you know, traditional books, you buy in a derisive way. And then lo and behold, as people's, as most people's Kindles, right, get get worn down, as the battery starts having problems or the screen gets wonky. They just toss them in the trash, and they don't buy a new one. Same thing that
happened with the Alexa and all the smart home devices. Your you these people have not is bought on new ones when the old they slowly at the attrition has happened. And guess what? Now I'm look, I'm going to go around town, at least here in Birmingham. We have there's a fairly decent number of bookstores now that have come back. I mean, there's a thriving market now for real paper books.

Yeah, I wouldn't say that the that it's as thriving as it was for sure. And I think digital books have a very long future ahead of them.

Sure, I can tell you I can I can. I can name at least half a dozen people that I know of that were all Kindle all the time. And they just churn. Sure. They just they when there's gave up, they just they just eventually it just evaporated onto the shelf somewhere into a drawer. And now whenever they read they read a book. Yeah, you know, it balanced out. So when I guess what I'm saying is like, I'm starting to see it now used
to, we would see on the streaming side of things. What you would do you knew that whatever it was you were going to watch would be free somewhere. And so you would just figure out okay, is it on Netflix? Is it on prime? Is it on Hulu? Why isn't an apple what? Where? Where is it? You knew it was gonna be free somewhere somebody had the right, that is now no longer the case. Right? Many, many times you've you're like, oh, I want to go watch this old TV show or
this old movie. And you can't find it for free that with a subscription anywhere. And so you end up having to buy it. And at that point, I'm like, Well, you know, what, if I'm having to buy it anyway, maybe I should buy it in the hardcopy and have it and have it forever. But I mean, I guess I'm saying that I think that, like with the free money things go. We get out people get over their skis a little too far. Yeah. And then it has to balance out. And that may be what's happening now.

Yes, and I think if you're going to read a book, then I would suggest Neil postman's amusing ourselves to death. Because that's exactly where we're at. We have amused ourselves into oblivion is too much. Just this too much. It's too much. It's too much. And, you know, the idea that we're all going to be discovered through discovery to algorithms. Yeah. Why didn't you need to be on YouTube to be discovered
because podcasting has no algorithms. You need to be regular, consistent, make an outstanding product in audio, I would say and you'll be okay. Everything else is crap. It's all turned to crap. There's I mean, there's it's all this just crap. Yeah. And and yes,

people are getting people are getting smoked me like the you know, the the unemployment rate. I saw that chart or not the unemployment rate, the hiring firing rate is way down. Yeah. Is the lowest it's been adjust population adjusted. The hiring rate is the lowest it's been since 2016. I mean, it's

bad. Yeah. dwarfs is Cory Doctorow and shoot suffocation. Yeah, yeah,

that's exactly right. True. And then you saw Amazon as speaking of the Alexa stuff and how we've had this, this pullback against. I'm trying to, mentally in the back of my head, I'm trying to label this phenomenon. And I don't know exactly what to call it. But it's this idea that, that we went that we just went way out in front. And now things are balancing back out. Because you know, did you see that? Amazon laid off like, get rid of almost all their Alexa team? Oh, yeah,
of course. Because I mean, they wanted that department. The bone? Yeah, yeah. Because nobody's buying those things. We used to have five in our house. Now we have one. I can't still have one. It's in. It's in my daughter's room for her to listen to me to Spotify and that's all she ever does to it. In It. They I mean, we just have five of those things. And I mean, I can I can just see there's this. There's this this idea that technology the day's absorb. I think that's a good
one. zero interest rate policy. Yeah. zero interest rate policy. Yeah. Phenomenon zero interest rate phenomenon. ZURB, like ZURB? Yes, it's the end of the hype cycle. Yeah, that's right is the end of the hype cycle. But there's a lot of these hype cycles are ending all at once. I think that's what it is. It's like this overlap of like four or five different hype cycles. One of which is the I think the AI hype cycle is starting to fade. Oh,

let me tell you, let me tell you, let me tell you. I got I got a clip here for you, too, about the AI hype cycle. Okay. For me, the joke always is, if we only had more power, more compute power, it would work if we had more compute power. Right? We need more chips, more compute power, then it then it won't make mistakes, then it won't hallucinate. Yes. So Larry Fink is the CEO of Blackrock. And Blackrock is arguably when Larry Fink speaks, people listen, because he's the
Blackrock has $10 trillion under investment management. Yet, Blackrock owns at least four to 5% of everything. Except podcast, literally. Every year, you can look at any shareholder say, No, there's BlackRock. So when he speaks, and he was at the World Economic Forum, which normally I would ignore, it's a drinking club, but he was in Saudi Arabia two days ago. And he brings up the issue of AI Now, bear in mind, please, that we're still trying to get Apple and other organizations to use
pod ping. And then we see a lot of very forward thinking groups starting to jump on the pod ping bandwagon, bandwagon, dip Pocket Casts Pocket Casts, but also on the on the hosting side, we've got Spreaker on Spreaker. I think Spreaker. Yeah. Podcast being being podcast. What is it, pod? bean pod bean, exactly.

These are not audio means which is a fringe podcast, and may

we so these are very smart, forward thinking people because you know, it's wasteful. Polling, an RSS feed is just wasteful. So you know, this beautiful pod pink thing is set up. Now let's see where the AI guys are going with power, see if they're wasting anything. This is Larry Fink.
Because the amount of capital is needed for AI. All the new technology that we've developed, probably in an entirety, was the domain of startups. And the whole ecosystem was, was venture capital, the startups. ecosystem has changed dramatically. AI is a domain of large caps. And I do believe to properly build out AI. We're talking about trillions of dollars of investing. So data centers today can be as much as 200 megahertz. They're now talking about data
centers are going to be one gigawatt. That's That's what powers a city. There. There was one tech company that I spoke to the CEO last week who said, Right now all their data centers is about five gigawatts by 2030. They need 30 gigawatts. 30 Mighty, the amount of power that's needed to do use AI is has a huge impact on society. Where's that power going to come from? Are we going to take it off the grid? What does it mean
for elevated energy prices? For everybody else? If it's that, I think it's going to represent some huge societal questions that we have not addressed the negative side, forget about the use of it, but just the generation of it is massive power, wind, but that that is a huge investment opportunity. So that we know the world is going to be short power is short
power. And to power these these data companies, you cannot have just this intermittent power like wind and solar, you need dispatchable power, because it can turn off and on these data centers, and so it's accommodated, I just want to end on a positive note, all this presents massive economic opportunity. So I mean, we're talking about technology and all that stuff, but think about it to build these things. You're
gonna have to go along air conditioning companies. I mean, the basic stuff, I mean, the amount of investments that are gonna be needed to do all this, alongside investing in the emerging world and healthcare and all the other issues. This is why I'm bullish. I see opportunity. I don't I don't see problems as my such as massive opportunity. Notice

he didn't mention climate change in this massive power. I mean, what what is going on here?

went off the rails at the end that I didn't know what like he because

all of a sudden he realizes that he's talking about investing trillions of dollars into stupid compute while people are homeless. They're drug addicts on the street. I mean, there's all kinds of problems we got and all you can think of trillions power anymore power 30 megabytes. 3030 megawatts of power.

Gigawatts gigawatts, gigawatts, and

this is not going to work. This is this is a pipe dream.

No, that's this is this. Yes. Stupid compute. That's exactly what this is that the the idea that this is going to, so Well, here's here's what Microsoft I don't know if you saw this. Such an Adela is memo to Microsoft. No. Such an Adela. is Microsoft memo on putting security first.

Microsoft, okay, yeah, in the DLL is, guys. That's what we need to check.

Microsoft is overhauling its security processes after a series of high profile attacks in recent years security is now Microsoft's quote top priority. The company outline today, in response to ongoing questions from the US cyber safety review boards labeling of Microsoft security culture as inadequate. Oh, boy. So bad reporters? Yes. Such a put out a memo company wide memo. And he said today I want to talk about something critical to our company's future,
prioritizing security above all else. And he goes, he goes on. But he says

we'll fix it with AI, please tell me in

No, no, no. He says that. That is the that is the number one priority at the company. Everything they do is going to be about security going forward. Going forward, we will commit the entirety of our organization to our secure future initiative. And he says security as if you're faced with the trade off between security and another priority, your answer is clear. Do security. Okay, this was six months ago, you could have written written this same memo to say GPT. Yeah,
and he would have said the exact same thing about AI. That tells me that AI is now starting to fade. They're they're they're moving, they're moving on because it's a money sink, and figured out how to make any money off of it. If I hope Larry thing and invests billions of dollars into all that stuff to get to big data centers, trillions, trillions of dollars,
because that is going to be a complete disaster. That when that thing dries up as this, I don't know, the the the AI hype cycle, to me, what is going to be the end up being the shortest hype cycle of all of the Silicon Valley stuff. It's gonna come and go faster than any of them by a factor of

five. And you could kind of see that because once podcast hosting companies were touting this as great features to have you kind of knew that was the I mean, we honestly and I say this with love, but podcast hosting companies, we're at the bottom of the barrel of tech. Now, so when it gets down to yeah, we've got AI, it's like me on this, like, we've got ham radios, too,

is sort of like people used to always say about Birmingham, by the time we get like a new trendy restaurant thing. It's already it's already three years. Yeah, yeah. And we got the Make your own yogurt shops. It was like, you know, they were already going in California. And

I think I said this last week, I just want to reiterate, I understand the hosting business. And it's it's not an easy business. And I appreciate I love seeing that huge list that Spurlock put together of all you know, the percent you know, market share of whatever, OPI three market share of hosting companies must mean 300 companies before he
stopped counting, and that's beautiful to see. And I understand that you want to grow, but you probably also want to have retention and you also want to steal people from other from other companies. I mean, that's just the nature of the business. But when we're down to you know, like your main feature is you can get you know, a penny for each time someone downloads your, your podcast, and that's supposed to be a feature. I mean, talk about and shit ification I mean, because people
you know, people aren't aren't motivated. There's no motivator, except Hey, someone in Lithuania downloaded my podcast. There's no motivator with stats. And I'll just say one more time if you if you Put some kind of value for value streaming in there. And you educate your customers on how to get their listeners to use modern podcast apps, which is becoming easier and easier. Especially the onboarding part. It's becoming
very easy now with lightning integration. Okay, it's coin base today, we have strike, there's all kinds of easier ways to onboard people into the lightning ecosystem.

They bow just partnered with a Moon Bay, that will really

elevate Moon pay. Oh, that makes them look official, then this is good.

There's there's a lot of good onboarding stuff on everything.

single time I show somebody streaming SATs coming in. And I can show it on my my Zeus app from a wallet. Of course, you don't see the booster grams, or I show using heli pad. That's what gets people excited. Like, wow, so wait, so that someone listening right now, so yeah. And they're sending me a little a little fraction of value for the for for, for what I do. That gets people excited, invest in that. Invest in that. And everything else like, Oh, it's just a penny
from some ad that no one wants to hear. It's also negative. Yeah, do something positive.

But and also the advertising. Look, go back. I think we talked about it last week. Spotify has monthly active users as a share of revenue, the premium users the meaning the users that pay their revenue. It was it was like 80% of their revenue came from the paid users, not the ad supported users. That's ad supported users was 10x. Lower. So as far as revenue goes, so I mean, like paying for things instead of
selling ads on things? Is it me? Look at that. The only things the only thing keeping cable television companies afloat? Right now is the carriage fees is paying to it. Yes. Ray had to survive just on advertising out it was lost, they would be out of business. Right? The the the people households paying hard, hard cash for a cable subscription is what is keeping them in business. The advertising is just is just gravy. You know, it's just

and I just want to come back to podcasting and the hosting companies. Because it's so it's just so destructive what I see taking place, because everyone's talking about YouTube. And it's not about video. It's about YouTube. Okay, let's just let's just call it what it is. You want to do video, most video but most podcast apps do video, Apple podcast does video. But no one does video because very few companies offer it. And it's not as easy as uploading to YouTube.
But everybody who's gone on board and make it easy for you, for your customers to upload to YouTube. Don't come crying. When your people are gone when Google has sucked them up. This is what they do. This is what they do they suck up RSS and then destroy it as what they do.

Now the I've got a good tip finalized formalize the publisher tag in namespace today. Yeah. So that's a lot. That's that's live. That's up. Go good. And I think I think that's something that hosting companies can take advantage of, I think the podcasting 2.0 podcast and 2.0 is about one of the things that we try to do is provide new features for hosting companies to use. We are the we are where we are the at the index is the apps best friend, podcasting. 2.0 is the is the
hosting company's best friend. Because you can it's a way to bring new features to podcasting for your customers. So that you can be so that you can exceed what is possible on closed systems. I

think that's a great description. I really love that, unfortunately, that we're just gonna have to wait until everyone has gotten the YouTube thing out of their system. Because yes, and you know, YouTube buys articles in the New York Times with YouTube booming podcast creators get camera ready. Yeah, you know, it's like, once you get over that, once you get over that then we'll still be here. Now we saw podcasting stagnate for a decade because everyone's like Boo, boo Apple, Boo Oh, The Youth

Club and clubhouse was the hottest thing since sliced house. About a year another
perfect example. All clubhouse. Oh, yeah, this is the future. Bye, guys.

Yeah, and then when nobody and then when everybody bails out and goes out the back door, everything goes back to the way it was. Yeah. And the same thing is gonna happen with YouTube if, if as long as the hosting companies resist the urge to play ball,

no, but they're playing ball Dave they're all playing ball. They're all playing ball. And one way or the other one way or the other. Even Todd is playing ball with you to tots

said they could you know that he will never play at all he's

playing ball. You can now buy an account on blueberry for your YouTube channel. And then

the videos out Yeah. And it's played people out.

playing ball.

He's doing Oh, he's no, he's trying to pull people out

even though it was my idea. He's also doing the the alternate enclosure for the YouTube embed people playing ball. But it's more of the the overall idea. And it's also I'm not, I'm not ashamed to say it. But if you don't have an RSS feed is not a podcast, and people can jump up and down and say curry no one cares what you say. And you're probably right. But YouTube is not a podcast. And you'll find out. If a F Oh.

Faith O, F A F O what is what is F? A F O

F around and find out? Oh, f a f? Oh, yes. Yeah. You'll find out? You'll find out? It's

not? So
first viral up?

Spiraling? Yeah, I guess I am. It's like, what are we doing? Stop, you know, everyone's just running around trying to get some some money somewhere. Focus people focus.

I think this comes from the I think this comes from the having lived through the people who are who were in town, I think the people who are in blogs, I don't think this necessarily affected the podcast world very much at the time. But the people who were in like us who were part of when Google Reader died, who were building RSS based software. Before, you know they were mostly in the blogosphere not in podcasting
was kind of its own form of RSS at the time. And still is but people like us that lives through the Google Reader death, I think, have a different perspective on and I don't mean, just you had a Google Reader account. And you were there. I mean, people who saw the slow attrition of any other competing product until Google Reader became the dominant thing. And then they wrote pulled it like that, that took a number of years to come to fruition. Google got everybody into their
ecosystem. They pulled everybody in. And then they just rug pulled everybody about killing and in thought it would be the deathblow to RSS. It turns out it wasn't. But it was close. Let's not be let's well be

and mine ourselves. The rug poll came with a replacement, which was I think Google Plus, was that what it was? Or was it Google Wave or any number of products, circles

and all that friend circles?

So it's, I just

think we have a different perspective than maybe some people in the podcasting world, because that never really hurt them that bad. Because podcasting is its own had its own route. They weren't they weren't really affected by Google Reader. But if you lived through that, you saw how tumultuous it was and how it almost killed the whole, the whole use of the protocol. And it makes you not trust Google in
any way. Well, when they start to get it when they start to get a dominant position over and open over something that used to be open. You have to get very nervous.

So along with that comes, I'm glad you brought up blogging, because we're seeing the same thing now with blogging companies, as we did with blogging companies. You know, you can get ads, you can get banners, you'll make money. You can do subscriptions. You know that all went away. Feedburner? Well, there's that there's that.

But we chose a way of putting ads into dynamic ad insertion, right? Yeah. But my

point is, it's not like a magical thing, you start a podcast, you you do something, and then you get advertising. If you know, there's a lot of crap. Not everyone deserves to make money. Not everyone should be making money. Some stuff should just be crap. It's okay. Yeah, crap is good, too. But this whole, like all these promises, now it's going to be this and that and grow your show. Just do your podcast, have fun.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is the public the publisher feeds thing, I think, is an example of one thing that that hosting companies can adopt. Now, if you have a note, I know quite a few hosting companies have have customers that publish a bunch of different feeds, you know, they have a business customer that may have four or five, six or more feeds is publishing a pode creating a offering them a publisher feed, that wraps all their their normal feeds into
into one. And makes that easy. That would be a great thing to offer. Be a great, it'd be great thing to offer, because that that does help us discoverability because we you know, once just like with blog roll in, I mean, pod roll and these other tags, the more of the discoverability stuff we can we can help enable. Then the platform's the the listening platforms can begin to crawl that data and actually put together things that look better,

yeah, better display, etc. And I'm excited about Yeah, yeah, I'm very excited about that.

Because that's one thing, that that's one thing that the more closed systems have, that we don't is the ability to sort of do better aggregation. On, you know, on the receiving side. Because we, you know, think about something like, you know, Apple, Apple podcasts, their directory, they have a lot of visibility that we don't have, they know who's
somebody gets on to Apple podcasts Connect. This is what we talked about one time before a while back about Google, some of the power of how Google became such a such a good search engine, had nothing to do with their crawling ability, and had a lot to do with how they convinced millions of sets of web of webmasters to go and enter in all the data about
their website to the Google Webmaster Tools. So once they had all that data plugged in by a real person, on the back end, that gave Google first party access to what the structure of their site was supposed to be, that had a huge impact on the
quality of the search. So in the same way, Apple and Spotify get benefits like that, when they have access to the first party data of people going into Apple podcasts connect or Spotify, dashboard, dashboard, megaphone dashboard, these things that allow them to see connectivity between different bits of data
that we don't see. Because all we're doing is collecting the RSS feed, whenever you have something, if you have a publisher feed, where you can collect, where you can see, oh, these four shows are all belong to the same parent entity, then you can do really cool stuff with that. And not just for not just for the immediate use case that we have is for musicians to pull their different feeds their different albums into one fee into one sort of hosts. One artist feed. That's obviously
the first one, but then you have, but it goes beyond that. I mean, if if one of your think about who was here, the guy, our buddies over there, Focus on the Family. Yes. Rob, you know, they Yeah, Rob. And, you know, they have a lot of they have a lot of shows. And so they could easily put publish a a publisher feed. And now anybody who's crawling that data can have a really cool user experience. To say, Oh, you just listen, you just subscribe
to this show. Here's four other shows by Focus on the Family that you may be interested in.

I hope the apps will implement it. I don't think anyone's except for Sam Sethi, whatever I say on the show, Sam, we know you do. You're doing it. Burn. blog roll, pod roll. No.

Yeah, no, no, I don't I don't know if the I'm not sure what's being implemented because we don't a lot of the open a lot of the open. Sea open. I'm not sure that's the right term. Like, people like Pocket Casts have, they have a PR mechanism in place. I mean, they put out press releases that kind of thing. People like, like Mitch and Franco and Jason ever podcasts, they don't really have, they don't do a lot of that kind of thing. I mean, they
will do it. They'll do it from time to time, but a lot of times we don't know what they've done and what they haven't. So I'm not sure what's been done on some of those things. I mean, the publisher fee just got formulas today. So yeah, you know, and I know I know, Oscar is way not been waiting on that because he wants to. He wants to get those artists. Yeah, for

the music. Yeah. Oh, later. Yeah, sure. For sure. Good.

Yes. I mean, we're, we're getting I mean, I think we're, you know, now now No, and that failure on the, on the hosting side. I mean, it's, it's,

I mean, I see energy going into things and stuff like AI and all that. I'm like, let's put it into you know, doing things that work that have that have a future and it's not some you know, add on strap strap on stuff. It's just strap on.

I think we could I think we can I think the best thing we can do is just complain. complain.
complain? Oh, hell Kraus. Yes. Yeah.

Right. Yeah.

I don't want to be too negative.

Okay. Moving beyond our, you know, THEC, Brawl raging at everything going on and podcast and

other shows who actually, by the way, I love these shows. I cannot not listen to these shows. Yeah, but I'm, like, I'm tired of boosting back my feedback. It's like, I gotta show we complain about it here.

So do you want to talk about the iTunes namespace real quick?

I only if you'd let me play the jingle.
And now it's time for some hot namespace talk.

Yeah, there's two things we got to talk about.

Okay. Well, I mean, I've got I may have one other.

Well, then go ahead. No,

I want to hear your list. Your two port list?

Well, the one is, okay. First, I guess a misconception that popped up. I don't think either of us have ever said that the podcast namespace should be replacing the iTunes namespace I don't think that was ever said. So where were they came from? That's that's a misconception. I think we've ever said that. The concept of a drop in replacement. For I think specifically the block tag we may have discussed. Which is which immediately becomes my the
second and final item on my list. As Mitch sent us a note a lot of people are trying to access a feed a podcast through pod verse, which has a blocked and iTunes it actually has iTunes and then a Google block tag I looked at the feed was just I don't think I've ever seen that from megaphone. And so we're not importing that. And his question is Kent since since Apple ignores it, is it time for us to just ignore it? And I know
it's come up in the past? I think it's been it's, it's up to you really, it's not for me to decide this somehow.

Let's take the second one first. The block the block tag. I can't ignore it completely. Because there are some of our hosting friends that really depend on us honoring that. The iTunes and water. Yeah. Yeah. And so I can talk to them over time and switch across

question. They want us to honor it because they're allowing people to create an iTunes block tag.

Yes, so they use an a one in particular uses it for private feeds. So they have a private feed. It's for like a member ship type thing. They'll put an iTunes blog tag in the feed. Now this this is we've we've talked about the problems with it in blog tag in you know, ad nauseam in the past it's it The it's just it's just, it's the worst. It's just the worst.

Well, it seems like using the iTunes block tag to signal that you have a private feed is not a great way to do it.

No, it's not because but it's the only thing that had been until we created the podcast blog tag, there's

right well, maybe, maybe maybe seven, said hosting company can change something so we can move forward sounds seems like someone's holding us back in this.

Yeah, I think going forward, we need to encourage people to use a better tag, which the podcast block tag is better in every way. Because you can just get granular and you can be specific and all that kind of thing. Because the one of the biggest problems with iTunes block tag is that is that people don't know, everybody handles it differently. And then everybody that puts it in there thinks it's going to be handled in a certain way. And that's not the case. So there's a huge
disconnect. But what but between what people think they're doing when they put the blockchains block tag in, and what actually happens when the atom block that is by tag gets in. So but for now. So there's this specific feed Gary brick brecha.

That's a health a health guy. So it's a pretty big podcast.

And so he's got iTunes blog tag in there. So we honor that, and we block it. And it's, and yet it shows up in like tons of other apps, even on Apple even in their app. And that just doesn't seem right. So what I'm going to do, as an interim fix for this is I'm going to I'm going to flag the database differently so that we can mark manually. In cases like this, we can mark that this. This particular podcast combined
needs to ignore it. Yes. Okay. Because I hate that because it's more manual work for everybody that I know, you know, but

in this case, we're hurting. Well, specifically, we're hurting pod verse. Yeah, because he says, MC says it's a lot of their users are saying, Hey, how come I can't get this? And that's a reason someone would not use that app. Yeah, I guess and

so and so that I can give Mitch admin access on the podcast in this dashboard.

Very bad idea.

I retract it, I take it back. You're not getting that Miss. So that's an easy fix, I think should be able to get that done this week. Replacing the iTunes namespace. I don't exactly know this details of what we said in the past. But I can tell you what my thought what my mind what my mental ideas have been for that. Or my mental framework for that has been since the beginning. Replacing the items namespace is is not a goal.

Oh, which drinkin show beer? No. Yeah, Waterloo, peach.

Oh, that's pretty good. Actually. Replacing that to his namespace is not a goal. Maybe you could call it like a design ambition. Or just go goal makes it sounds like it makes it sound like it's one of the core purposes of of the namespaces existence or the work and that's that's not really the case. It's not the goal to replace the iTunes namespace. It's an ambition that that we're designing for. We like we need to make it an easy transition if that ever becomes a thing that
trend that happens. Yeah, here Nathan a happy coincidence. Yes. Well,

that's interesting. Before you continue, okay, so what you're saying is we would want we want to have replacements in case for some reason the iTunes namespace wasn't supported or I'm not sure what you think what happened.

But podcasting 2.0 is more than just the namespace. The podcasts podcasting. 2.0 is is a community of people trying to make sure that podcasting technology is in the hands is is open and in the hands of people and not companies. I

love that and YouTube

So in that vein, we ultimately don't want namespaces that are critical to the way podcasting works. To be controlled by private companies. We we don't, that's not what we want, we want it to be when you want something that's critical to it. If there's something at this critical to podcasting, infrastructure or technology, we as podcasting 2.0. Want one Shane changes to that thing to be done by communities of people, not private companies, meeting in private boardrooms.
So, I like in that regard, the iTunes namespace is a thing that we want, that is the antithesis of that. Apple controls the iTunes namespace, we're not in that we don't we're not at the table. The best we can do, we're not allowed to participate. The best we can do is beg them and ask them to do stuff. What, what if we want better versions of the iTunes tags, case in point perfect example block and PR

block Yes, block blogs keyword block.

NPR wanted to add an attribute to the season seasons, yeah. To allow you to put a name to name a season, we could have begged Apple to do it for 10 years. And just hoped that one day they listened and did it. Yeah. Or we could just duplicate that tag, make sure it's backwards compatible with the iTunes version, and then modify it ourselves while maintaining the backwards compatibility, which is what we did. And if we
do that enough, if we if we take that approach. And the approach is this, if somebody wants a better version of an iTunes tag, then we duplicate the tag, add the add the new feature to it that they want, while maintaining backwards compatibility. And maybe 10 years from now, or some time in the future. Again, not a goal. This is not a it's not a goal to
do this, necessarily. But at some point in the future, there may come a time when the podcast namespace, essentially has all of the same tags as the iTunes namespace with extra features, so that they're better. And then at that point, the podcast namespace is, is already so widely disseminated amongst hundreds of 1000s of feeds and apps and apps and not YouTube, that at that point, it really does become feasible, that you can make that you can just switch, it becomes a drop in replacement.

Okay. Well, I'm glad we had this conversation, because although I have not seen it, it is my understanding that from the partners weekly review that James Cridland was out there fighting with people in the GitHub saying no, this tag already exists. It's iTunes tag, and you don't need to recreate this. So that's that. So there's a disconnect there.

I, I would agree with him in this sense. If there's nothing we can offer, as an improvement on that tag, I see no reason to duplicate it. Copy that. Yeah. But if we can off if if there's a clear thing, that will be an improvement to that tag, I don't mind duplicating it, because the only here's the only you got two options. Okay, it's like okay, we have this tag, block tag. This thing is not sufficient. It is not doing a job, the job that is designed for it's a it is a
inadequate piece of piece of namespace technology. We can do better. So we have two options. Three options. First option, we can beg Apple for a decade, in which the the likelihood of them doing anything is zero, maybe 1%. Option number two, we can duplicate the tag into the podcast namespace, add the feature make it better. And then it becomes as we all hope a standard right so people stop using the iTunes version and switch to our version right so

the perfect example of that as category. Right. as we as we move to more freeform categories and

Don't think no, no, I don't think we're going to I don't think we're going to conflict with the category tag. I think I think what we're doing is going to be something else it's going to be I don't think it's going to be a direct conflict because we're, we're more this is what we're doing is going to end up being more like the key words. Yeah. Yeah. I think yeah, I

think they'll live together. Okay. Or in harmony in perfect harmony.

Evany. So, I think, but then the third option is the option that we don't want to do. And I don't is a hostile takeover that seems namespace.

Yeah, no, we don't want that. That's no fun. No, we

don't, we don't want to start saying, you know, adding things to, to the iTunes namespace. So you know, without their permission, but I'll tell

you, I have a sneaky suspicion that one day in the future, it may be within this 10 day, 10 year timeframe. I could easily see the European Union forcing Apple to divest of podcasts and and have that something that is not pre installed anymore. Yeah. And, and you know, and there'll be options for people to choose. And that may negate their power over many things.

I'll go one step further. I would not be surprised if at some point in this 10 year period, some people may think I'm crazy, but I don't think I am. If Ted Hoffman calls up and says, Hey, we want to merge the iTunes namespace with the podcast namespace. Wouldn't surprise me one bit. Merge merge the two things together. What

would the benefit be? Why? Why would they want to do that? And I mean, by that I 10 horsemen really needs to think about retiring and he's going to be 100 by the time that happens,

he's already let's have you seen his beard?

Interest. Interesting. Interesting. vaad.

Yes. I mean, I can see it in book because there's I can't remember that podcasting doesn't make apple any money. You know, it's a it's really the last labor of love within the company. Is the last like, throwback to an old apple. that existed, you know, for, for ideals bigger than just money for

the people. For the people. For the crazy. What for the crazy ones?

The Crazy Ones? Yeah, it's this. This is an old, this is an old, this is a vestigial organ that's attached. Just

to kind of divest a little bit from it and feel like it's been put in a good place. Hey, those two Yahoo's that sounds like a good idea. Let them maintain it all.

Yeah, and that means that means we we have to have staying power is gonna, you know, we got to stick around long enough for for people to see that. That podcasting. 2.0 is the right place to house something like this is a trusted in is a trusted community where this is going to be taken, taken forward? Because I don't know that they're necessarily in I mean, they don't get anything out of the items namespace been,
they just, they just don't. So I could see them in the future. I mean, they've already been, they've already they already linked to the podcast namespace from there and from the iTunes namespace documentation. True. To me that that looks like the first step towards 10 years from now, Pappy van husband calls up and says, you know, hey, let's have a chat. So I'm just saying that it is hoped, maybe that I feels like it is not still not clear. But I think it it has to not. It's not the goal,
necessarily. But it has to be on the radar. Because it's who it's what our it's our what

our overall mission is. Yeah, our

mission is not letting podcasting be owned by huge corporations. So it has to be part of it

right now. A little gear switch. Yes, sir. Eric peopIe. I saw some pull requests going back and forth. It looks like there's a new version of helipad coming which will allow me to set up pew pew custom pew pew sounds Yeah. Did you Did you see that? I did.

Um, he is he's on fire with the Health Analytics site.

So so so that will mean that we can have a secret boost number. And if you boost with the right number, bells and whistles go off and then you get a prize? No, that's gonna be nice stuff like that. I'm excited about that. I'm very excited.

Do we need to,

which is kind of the start of something you said like ratifying all this great stuff. And there's still stuff that happens in IRC that, you know, we really have no idea how to access and it just shows up and people turn stuff on booths, bots, and all that stuff. I mean, I feel somehow like Halle pad is a great place to put a lot of that functionality, they can go back out. So I'd love to be able to have heli pads say, Okay, you connect your IRC here. And what I mean

yeah, that'll be that'll be cool. Because that you can basically run your own booth spot.

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

I think he said you could sideload he said he's got a not fully tested version that you can sideload Yeah,

but whenever I sideload then then you know, then my start nine doesn't know that. You know, there's a new version and then I have to go back and have to reload every single boost. From the moment my node went up. That's kind of a downer. Like loading the blockchain. Oh, by the way, dude, I got want to mention that I got one of those was called the Founders Edition of the what's that thing called? It's a bid to a future bid. Future bid. Have you heard these guys? No
future future bid.io. So it's a it's a full node. There's a future but yeah, future BIT dot out. That's pretty cool. To form node, which you can also use as a desktop, interestingly enough, and because it has a boon to on it.

Did you get the

Apollo two? Yes. Founders Edition. Cool. Yeah. And it does like seven seven Tera hashes Giga second flop. Whatever. GSPs Yes. At 190 watts.

That's been published to is the culmination of news pretty

good. And

as a miner Yeah, it's a mining rig.

Yeah, it's a mining Yes. You can hook it up to I'm just running it solo I'm gonna get me a block
he has so amount of block Oh, yeah,

I'm that guy. I'm going to be that guy who's gonna mind his own block? For sure. Yeah, it's made in America is here up to 10 Tera hash hash power

Oh, you got the fat Oh, you founders of this. So what's the founders the Founders Edition shipped first? Yeah, limited run. Oh, it's oranges in Bitcoin? Yeah,

it was like burn dark orange. Yeah, no, it's beautiful. It's a minor that you don't put in the garage. It's really interesting.

What is the difference between a standard and a full node? Minor plus full and minor only version of a price simply plug in your?

Yeah, if you want to solo I think you got to have a full node.

Oh, yeah. Okay, I'm on two bucks that's that's a lot cheaper than an ant miner

Oh yeah. I'm on a I'm on a so um I'm on a pool right now because it comes of course without the blockchain so you gotta download the blockchain that always takes a few days. And but once that's done full on SoLoMo baby

so LaMonte your own pre installed stratum solo pool

that's right you want to join my pool?

Wait so that's about to ask you so if I got one you want to connect to your pool? Yeah,

we can we yes we can mind together honey. Oh, think of it right. Think of the opportunity think of the community we could build

think of the think of this the home heating capacity. Yeah, right. Deliver a No kidding. That's got an HDMI port on the side. I'm

telling you it's a full on Ubuntu install and instead of a desktop? Well, it kind of looks Yes. And it kind of weird that I do that wrong. Someone else I thought was future bit Future.

Future bit.io/home is where I'm at. Yeah,

I post that in the I posted that into the

connected monitor to it or configure over Ethernet automatically start sinking a full Bitcoin node. It

looks a bit like Apple had one of these cubes at one point remember the cube Apple had a cube? Yeah, a little bit like that.

Big is it but I can't see the dimensions.

It's bigger than the Apple cube but it looks nice. Let me look oh, that's kind of a handsome unit.

So that's such a handsome unit. Is there twit is is more like, is it like 12 inches by 12 inches or is it more small? wasn't six by six

I'd say seven by seven

oh that's not very big at all

Hey, want to play some music?

I would love to

Okay. So I'm kind of on this Friday thing where like it's Friday how you feel you're ready for a bang Are you ready for banger? Lahoma homeless second let me I found this thing I want to play this something I found this from an old daily source code daily source code thing Hold on a second let me see I've been looking for this in I think the guy who did this died he may still be alive but I love it so much something
remarkable is happening here. Radio is screen free of the regulated gatekeepers who manage what you can hear since radio was invented it's jumping into the hands of anyone at all with something or nothing to say I guess tread water for five times we'll run a video right is the standard and you're gonna be all right enjoy the ride one you're the deal I have no issue that's why you'll never get is gonna be running again it's the
standard or the you're gonna be all right. Enjoy the ride one year What's up Kong you

how about that? Yeah, it wasn't I knew you'd like it. Yeah the protagonist death by lions.

quality music on don't value for values is

dynamite. Yeah, I found great. I found that on. sidestream music podcast Cody played it like God is so good. Yeah.

There's great music out there that you can just turn you can turn on any of the music shows? Yeah, unless later really It feels like the radio. Yeah,

exactly. Lm beats you know if you can listen to any of the shows and listen to any all the music.

bug fixes, by the way. I'm glad you mentioned LM beats. Okay.

Oh, yes. Your your API search. Fix bug thing.

Yes. Search fix bugs. The minister. Yeah, thanks. Yeah, I love fixing bugs, especially when it's like, like a suspended chord that resolves you know, your to in endpoints that were affected by this bug. The, they both used the same under relying the function like lower level function, so it all came down to a sequel issue. So the bug was this. And if you asked for if you add it, so it's the episodes by feed ID endpoint. That was that was one of them. And the by
medium tag was the other that were affected by this. If you if you so if you would ask for a specific number of episodes, you would get back a different amount. That's

that's what we call a bug Dave, that is recognized as a bug. Yes.

If you asked for 20 episodes, you may get back 16. He asked for 100, you may get back 80. So this is a clear bug. Where it became weird, though, was the way the bug was expressed in the by medium tag. So the by medium tag you if once you got up to like, let's say, if you're LSA, you're asking for all the all the feeds, that were buy that were had music medium. And you say, Okay, I want 2700, you know, like I want I want 3000 feeds, we that wouldn't work, it would just, it would
just time out. So, Stephen D is the one that found the magic number. As you're creeping up, you cannot go above 22,750 as the max count

on a random number. Yeah,

so Well, it turns out, that's the number that would, it was a it was a Stack

Overflow memory leak.

It was a slowly escalating, long running query, that once you got beyond about 2007, sometimes you could go you could go higher. But once you got beyond that the query was taking so long on the database side that it would fail, it would timeout, the API would abandoned would abandon the query. So this ended up being a problem is I don't use an ORM, which is like a build your SQL for you do all the SQL statements by hand because

you're because you're a man.

In assembly, that's right. Is C so what I had, what I didn't realize was it mice, so MySQL does what's called early row lookups. So you can think of a database like this, okay. database table. So think of like an index is like a is like a second table. So you have, so you have a table of data. And the index is almost like a separate table, where the records are pointers, from the indexed columns into to the
primary key in the index table, if that makes sense. So you have this, this, the index is this separate sort of like hidden table over here, where it all it's doing is keeping track of relationships between the index value and the primary key of the of the index table traditional. So you can you can look, looking up the data. So looking at it. So if you have a you have your index over here, and that's what you want to always live in your
index, because that's mostly in memory. If, if your database is machine as well, you know, it's got enough RAM that can have things in memory. And you're going to it's fast. So going to get the road data itself is slow, because that's sometimes it's on disk. And that's you don't want to have to do that
until the basically the very last minute. So because what happened because what can happen is you know, if you will be terrible is if you go and get all the data, if you go and get all the data from the actual table off disk, then you determine that some of the filter filtering in either in the where clause, or in the group by or something has, has filtered out some of those rows because now you've fetched a bunch of rows that you didn't even need sounds

very inefficient, highly inefficient.

So what you want is a database that does something called a late row lookups This is

sexy sequel talk with David sexiest sequel,

and this MySQL does not this does not do this. So you have to sort of work around Do you have to finagle MySQL to get it to avoid this issue? Because what if you an imp, a well, a, excuse me a poorly thought out use of something like, group by or order by can trigger this problem where you end up fetching 100,000 rows. And then you actually only deliver 5000 of them. That was the issue here. What was confusing me is, it's been triggered by the way

he was confused about the problem as I am about the explanation.

I had to reverse engineer the explanation after I figured out what the problem was. Okay. What was confusing me is that it was triggered by the ORDER BY clause. So if I if I went in to what was happening is those I was ordering the sequel result by by timestamp on the episodes because you like I don't know wasn't ordering it by the primary index. Primary Key is ordering it by the timestamp, because that's a more accurate record of ref reflection of the chronological order of the of
the feed. So the order by the timestamp is an indexed column. So I'm like, why is this slow? This doesn't make any sense. And it ended up it was, what I had to do to fix it was basically, there, it's this statement has like four different joins, it joins four different other tables into it when it's running. So what I had to do is basically make a sub query, that would only get just it only worked with the primary key, that's all it did, there was no other things being being asked
for or filtered on than that sub ID. So that's a career was gonna be very fast, then it hands it back to the outer query, which does all the joins in orders and orders it because at that point is ordering by a much smaller set of data. So then, once that was, once that was figured out, then it fixed all of these problems all at once. So now everything works, the way you would expect you get you when you ask for 100 episodes, you actually get 100 episodes. And that that was because there was
another issue, I was trying to work around this issue. Many, many like, like, almost at the beginning of the API, I was trying to work around this issue without understand and I was in a rush, and I didn't understand what the problem was. And so I had put like a false floor on this. So what was happening at the when you would ask for like three episodes by feed ID, you would ask for 100 episodes, it was true, it was putting like a false time constraint on it. To try to limit the the try to
limit the set of rows that it was looking for. Wishes a dirty, ugly, awful weight. And it's just, it's just completely broken. But I'd forgotten I'd had done this. And so it was like, let's try to limit it to like if you asked for. If you asked for 25 episodes, let's try to limit it to like six months. If you try abs for 100, let's limit it to like a year. You know, you see what I'm saying. It's like trying to put like this false time constraint on it is just so horrible. And now, it
doesn't matter. Like all that's fixed, if you can ask for 100 episodes that mattered. If those if some of the episodes were 10 years ago to continue, you're gonna get everything. So we're good to go on that. The only thing that that I need to add is somebody asked for in the GitHub, somebody asked for a essentially like a mode of weird where this where this API will work differently. So what they were saying some people may not know that when you ask when you call the episodes by feed ID
endpoint you can give it multiple feed IDs. So you can say I want episode I want 100 episodes from these seven different feeds and it will give you back everything it can find from those seven feeds up to a result count of 100. This personal nugget have said I want that but I want to be I want to get that many results from each feed. If I ask for seven fee didn't ask for 20 episodes, I want to get 20 episodes from each feed. So it'd be a total of 140 Do you have

how many? If you ask for what what did you expect again?

If you ask for seven fees 20 episodes, you expect to get 140

I need 120 episodes. You got me all worked up with your sexy sequel.

This is the way you don't fall asleep

as Ray. Don't fall asleep.
Called nein nein Nein. Sexist SQL.

This is how you entertain yourself by fiddling with buttons.

Oh no. I went to a whole website. I searched for porn music. I was pre listening. I'm like, Oh, this is not this is not quite it and like, Oh, this is the one this is the white. There we go. I

especially always tell when you let when you listen to slipping. You're like oh, sorry, guys. I'm always telling you. I love how it started though. Dave

got to be more that sexy sequel talk. baybay

I'm fresh out. I used it all on YouTube. Wow. That's too bad that's it. Oh, that's it. Period. End of story.

Really getting your money? We're getting your money's worth. Yeah.

It's like even. That's where I got our show theme from this. I bought that.

Oh, yeah. So your music? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. In vado elements. Oh,

man. All right. So do we have anything else that we must cover today?

I had on my list for the open podcasts? Yes.

I had that on my listing. I actually had it up pretty high, actually.

But that's fine. We can kick it to next week. The

open podcast API specification. You were thinking of building a reference server.

Yeah, and I did some more research on it this week. And we come back to next week. I mean, this this file isn't there's no rush on that.

I guess not. Do we have a guest next week? We have a we got a guest coming up. Who do you have next week?

We do we have Eric from the our podcast the Eric built the the podcast dashboard for us the one that shows all the duplicates and all the issues? Yes,

yes. Yes. Yeah. What else? What else is Eric do white does the our podcast.

He does the art. Our pagar is a programming language. that's used a lot for like stats and scientific analysis. Yes, we

have. We have interesting people. For sure. Really have interesting people. Eric, Eric, oh, he's always in the board of Eric.
Bring your bathing suit. Eric will put you into a hot

a hot tub. I didn't know the boardroom even had a
way the only boardroom with a hot tub.

How do we afford that? Well, it's
more like a warm tub. It's not really hot. It's warm. We can't heat it up that much. It's more like

room temperature.

And let's thank some people. We got been hearing boost going on throughout the entire show. Let's see what we got. Well, right there. We have a 5000 SATs from our podcasts from Eric. That's our dash podcast pouring out one for Google Reader. He says it was my first gateway to consuming RSS content. Excited for our dive into the pie dashboard next week. Yeah, me too. I love that when this Go ahead.

It sounds like a podcast about pirates, right? The our podcast

or? Yeah, I love it that we just delayed talking about something long enough until someone will finally give up and come on the show to talk about it.

Oh man, you blew my he you've exposed my

strategy and strategy. Dred Scott who has been indeed has been doing gifs in our chapter art which is looked dynamite. I'm sorry, not Dred Scott. Dred Scott has just weighed today. Yes, Dred Scott. Yes, dread. I'm so confused. You had a Brett you just had a bad brain. Yeah. Why is because of the lukewarm tub. That's what happened. Yeah, heat water, low heat.

gotta put gifs everywhere. For 567 from Jeb, the only way I could find to surface my pod full my pod roll is true fans. He really does implement everything. And he has a drive now has a podcast of ISOs which is worth checking out.

I'm glad that Drib is dabbling. He's sticking his toe in the water. He's

done. We'll put that into the boardroom there. 3333 from Eric peepee. And Erica boosted that for the protagonist. Remember, when you're boosting a song can always go back and you can always rewind and even pause it and boost. Remember to tell them where you heard Tom got into podcasting to point out 5000 SATs from Sam Sethi. Nice to see in the version Oh dot one dot 11 of heavy pad and now have the true fans logo. It's nice to see the true fans logo pop up.
Although I can't reply. Unfortunately with Sam's, I'd love to be able to reply. Sam Sam Sethi or his people in America column Hey, Seth. True fans already replaces the apple category list if medium equals music. So we take the primary Apple category by E Music. Then we use the wave Lake music category list to add other options like rock, soul, etc. Apple will never release a music taxonomy. So we work around them. No, I mean, it's not even working around them, but just
working ahead of them. That's a good way to do it. I think I'm sure that everyone else was going to follow this suit as a good idea. So if medium equals music, then you just move over to the wavelength music category. I still where does that live? I know they have a place for it. I'd like just like to point to it. It's something

it's on their GitHub. It's on wave legs

GitHub. Yeah,

I think there's a link to it in the category in the podcast, category television thread. Good.

Another 5000 from Sam Sethi. The iTunes namespace is not open. It's controlled by Apple. They can change it but everyone else can't. If we want to add their category list we can ask but they can and will refuse. Sam Sam big fan of Apple big fan of apps now these days? Yeah. And another 5000 SAS from Sam Sethi. He's clearly hit the Pinot Noir everybody. He's up late. He's drinking. We have enabled artists feeds with that.
With our music publisher feeds, they work the same way. We have events and ticketing next for artists and a merch store with on demand delivery payment is both in Fiat or SATs booth. Sam is building an empire over there man, true face.fm And another 5000 SATs from samsat. The true fans have enabled publisher feeds, we have 131 Live already. I don't think sovereign feeds doesn't do publisher feeds yet. That would be cool. I'd love to do that I'd love to have. I mean, I know that Steven B is so
busy but I'd love to. I'd love to do an example of a publisher fee because I'm a publisher. I got all kinds of

lead that Stephen has slowed down a little bit because he was he was going too fast. He

was like yeah, he was burning up on reentry. Yes.

Yeah. He's losing towels.

I look quick chat with him this week. He's doing good. He's doing he's doing good. We're very happy. Another 4567 from dribs got chapters may be a bit delayed. He says I have a very busy weekend starting at noon today until late Sunday. Hoping to squeeze in chapters somewhere in there. You know what? Drip family first brother it's all good.
