Headliner PodPod: Podcasting fun!

>> Nicholas: M howdy, everyone. My name is Nicholas, and welcome to the headliner Pod podcast were a show about podcasts, featuring podcasts by podcasters thats hosted by people who help podcasters with their podcasting. On each episode, a few of his folks over at headliner sit down to play a game that centers around listening to randomly selected clips from over 500 episode submissions weve gotten from podcasters. Why? Well, in order to find what we call pod Zero,

here are the rules. Each lucky contestant will hear a 62nd podcast clip. They'll then need to pick the correct podcast title from a lineup of three choices before being shown the artwork for that show.

Before we get this show on the road, though, let's say hi to each of our contestants for today, starting with Christy. Let's go. Thank you for the enthusiasm. I needed that. It's like a shot of espresso. Next up, we have Max. Hello, podcasters. We are here for you. So supportive. Oh, my gosh. Next, we. We got you. You're fine. You're going to get through this. Next up, we have jesse. Hello, podcasters. We're here for you. Okay, next

critique. Hey, everyone. we also have alyssa, our producer, who I'm sure has an ad read for us. Hi. >> Elissa: And I, do. Adding captions to podcast videos is no joke. Including captions on podcast videos goes a long way toward creating high quality, engaging content that helps grow shows. By adding captions, podcasters make accessible, engaging podcast videos that support a positive listening experience. To create and style captions, log into your headliner account at make

What thing should I use? I like, I've been trying not to double it up, but that's really. That's really hard. Is that a hat over there? >> Elissa: On a skull? >> Nicholas: Yeah, on a skull. Yeah. I have a lot of hats on. Okay. Dang. Okay, we'll just do, this. I'd

like using this. Okay. Ready? Okay, cool. >> Speaker C: My name is Krista, and I'm your host. It's

May 22, 2024, and with May being mental Health Month, I thought this was a good time to rewind back to episode 13, where I shared six self care tips for us busy mamas. I also want to come clean with you about something I have struggled with over the last couple of years and finally got under control thanks to some of these tips in today's episode. But before we get into that. I just want to say thanks for tuning in, mama. I started this podcast because babies don't come with

instructions. As of this recording, I am chasing around a five year old that no amount of googling mom groups or books were able to prepare me for. There's a lot of stuff people don't talk about when it comes to pre pregnancy, during pregnancy, postpartum, and as someone who was previously terrified all of the above, I'm here to help you pull back the curtain on all of it. >> Nicholas: All right, there's your clip. You heard it here, folks. Babies do not come with instructions. I know. I'm

shocked. That has to be so hard. Like, okay, what? Whatever. Anyway, here are your clue, your options for today, Christy. Number one is secret mom hacks. Number two, just mom things. And number three, mom in it. They're all pretty good. I'm gonna pick mom and it mom in it. Yeah, I really like that title, too. It makes me think of the Muppets song, like Menomina. Is it maman with an apostrophe, or are they just going for it? Ah, secretary. Oh, no, it's. It's. Yeah. First

off, the answer is secret mom hacks. But it was an apostrophe. Okay, cool. That's bad. Yeah. So it's kind of like breakin'breakin'two, electric boogaloo, you know? Very cool. Yes. That is a way to describe the eighties breakdancing movie, breakin' here is some info about the episode we just listened to. This was from the episode my mental health journey, overcoming anxiety and migraines with self compassion, movement, and more. Episode 68. And following up, here is

our show description. Someone who was previously terrified of childbirth, parenthood, and all that follows. I'm, here to help you pull back the curtain on all of it. Every now and then it may get a little messy, we may share a little TMI, but that's why you're here, right? My goal is that you'll leave every episode feeling refreshed, inspired, and hopeful, knowing you're not on this mom journey alone. So there you have it. Also, Christy, I gotta call you out. Was the

thing you covered your face with the soundtrack to Evangelion? Yes. Okay. I thought I read the word evangelion, and I was like, this guy, my, guitarist in my band went to Japan and brought that back to me. An actual cd of the OST. Very cool, very cool. Also very cool artwork. I don't get the. I don't get the light bulb in the center of it, but it's cool. It's the word secret. Mom hacks with a light bulb for the o. It's a secret idea. Yeah, I guess because, like,

ideas or something. I don't know. I thought maybe they also like Moonlit as an Edison podcast. But, like, when she's telling you the thing, it's going to give you that moment. Ah. I just had that light bulb go off in my head. That was the, I'm there. There you go. Yeah. Thank you for that. Okay, jumping over to our next contestant. Let's go with Max. We can do that, but there's a lot. Okay, the

sirens are gone. There was a lot of sirens happening here, so we can't hear any of them thanks to that patented zoom noise reduction. Not sponsored, no, but we're available. >> Speaker D: I think my mom. I think my dad wanted to go back, but my mom would always stay for three months, and my dad would come back in six weeks because of work. But my mom's like, why do I have to go back? My mom was also very funny. She had no issue bringing me back to

school late in October sometime. She was like, my kids need to be here. They're getting so much out of it. This is where we're from. And they were fine with it. >> Speaker C: Did you witness or hear stories from your mom in particular, since you mentioned it was harder for her? Does she experience any kind of discrimination? And how and where would that show up?

>> Speaker D: You know, I will tell you, my parents, like a lot of immigrant parents, were very much about, keep your head down, do the work, don't cause a fuss. They were so happy to be here. They were so grateful to be in America, and they really just wanted to work and do a good job. So when things had happened and things would happen, or I've noticed things, they would never acknowledge it. >> Nicholas: Okay, there's your clip, Max. And here

are your options. Number one, back to our roots. Number two, one in a billion. And number three, one in a million. I'm just gonna go with the first one. I don't want to deal with this math. All right, back to our roots is incorrect, so sorry. It was actually one in a billion and. Yep, so sorry. It looks like our podcast artwork is perhaps the image of the guest for this episode or something like that. Maybe the host, I don't know. But here's a bit about the show. This

was from season seven. Season seven, episode ten. I love India. And here's our description. One in a billion is a podcast about asian values, culture, and society, one person at a time. We interview asian writers, producers, entrepreneurs, and entertainers about what they do and what drives their choices and decisions. Hosted by Mabel Chan, former ABC News producer. One in a billion gives the stage to the young and the bold with a voice in a view that is rarely heard.

So, pretty cool. Interesting stuff. And so sorry you got that wrong, Max. That's okay. I forgive you. I mean, I wasn't asking for forgiveness. I was just apologizing. Well, you got it. You got it. Okay. >> Elissa: Fun thing about this podcast. Neil was on it, like, two episodes ago. >> Nicholas: What? Really? What are you talking about? >> Elissa: Himself. He was interviewed. >> Nicholas: I guess that makes sense. You should

have led with that clip, Alyssa. that would have been really. That would have been a good way to see who's actually listening to the clips. >> Elissa: See, I thought about it, but then it wouldn't have been necessarily an automation. And I was like, that's. I didn't. You know, I was feeling lazy. I was feeling. 15 seconds. Done. >> Nicholas: Headliner product, promotion. You can select the episode in automation. >> Elissa: You can.

>> Nicholas: There you go. You've been sad. Samuel is Neil's wife, right? >> Elissa: That's Neil's wife. >> Nicholas: I'm pretty sure. Yeah. What. What, if Neil's wife is the guest and none of us just know this? I wasn't paying attention, but, like, I'm pretty sure that she though. Yeah. I apologize for not recognizing that all of us. Have you guys met her? I don't know. Okay. >> Elissa: I barely met Neil in person. >> Nicholas: That's true.

I've been at, Neil's house for many brainstorm sessions because he lives five blocks away from me. That's right. I have met his wife and his kids, who often join the brainstorming session at some point. Wholesome. And all our best ideas are from Neil's kids. All right, the more, you know. Sorry, I'm just getting flashbacks to the time that one kid strolled into our office, like, five years ago. I don't know. Remember that? Yeah. Kid who gave us the idea for audiograms and, yeah,

he was quite talkative. From what I remember. He was an interesting dude. Anyway, on to our next contestant. Let's go with Jesse. I was trying to remember the order. Let

me, I got. I got my notepad. Of course you do. >> Speaker E: And then, you know, we sort of run through a bunch of scenario planning, and we landed where we are now, which is single tracking. So always having service from going through. So always having through service and having, one side of the. The track shut down at a time. Part of that exploratory planning exercise is looking at how many people Skytrain miss. And can we replace the service with a bus?

And so we always do that exercise, like, in order to provide the least disruption to the public, can we single track or do some sort of planned shutdown that then we're having bus service instead? And something that's amazing about Skytrain is it moves a lot of people very efficiently. And so when we're talking about shutting something like that down for a long enough period of time where we can do the work, it's just not feasible to substitute Basu.

>> Nicholas: Okay, there was your clip, and here are your options. Number one, what's the t? Number two, trains, trams and translink. And number three. Transit talk and Translink podcast. Transit talk and Translink podcast. That's such a slick title. I'm going to have to go number three. Okay. It flows off the tongue way too easily. Is it because of that or is it because the pattern of the first one being the first choice and the second one being the

second choice? Look, I do have two question marks beside number one and number three, trying to figure out if the second question, when they, the answer was number two, was it is are we going one, two, three, or are we going one, two? And then they were all one. And you just put that second one there to try to fool us. I'm not sure, but I'm going to go with number three. Big partially because of it. It's a slick title, but also because I'm kind of hoping it's one, two, three as well.

Okay, you're incorrect. It was what's the t? So sorry. >> Elissa: There's no rhyme or reason to the order this week. >> Nicholas: There's always rhyme and reason. No, there really isn't, Jessie. The reason Alyssa has this, like, background instead of her actual background is because there's a dartboard behind her with the numbers one, two, and three, and that decides where everything goes. It's very specific. I know. At any rate, the answer was what's the tip?

And our artwork is pretty cool. It just looks like, a map of the Vancouver transit system. How about that? So here's a bit about the show. Clip we just listened to was from season three, episode six, entitled where does the Skytrain sleep at night? And here's our description. Join host John Jang as he uncovers what's the tea with Metro Vancouver Transit and Translinks podcast. Come behind the scenes with us as this podcast reveals the voices and stories that drive your transit system

forward. Can I just like package this podcast up and send it to NJ Transit because they have so much they need to fix. Can I just be like, just do this? Just become Vancouver? You could. I could. I guess I could. I could send them an audiogram too, with headliner. Boom. Secret plug. Just hit that. Twitter, which I guess should be x at this point button. No, it's Twitter. And tag them. Okay, noted. Thank you for that. And let's just jump over to our next class

product promotions. We've been really on top of that today, in case you haven't noticed.

>> Elissa: Good job, Max. >> Nicholas: No problem. Just educating everybody about the features. Pratik, would you like to go next so that we can hopefully get another product plug in here? That's a yes. >> Elissa: It's ready. >> Nicholas: In a moment, you will hear listeners responses about what they see, hear, or experience that makes them feel welcome. >> Speaker C: But first, we will tell you next month's

question. Here it is. Who is a historical figure whom you admire, but

whose actions and words also trouble you? Historians, activists, and even content creators have been helping us gain a fuller, more balanced view of often revered historical figures. We're learning that the heroes of old were not perfect. >> Nicholas: Now, Amish. Could you give an example of someone like this? >> Speaker C: Absolutely. So last month we featured Taki James, who's the head of the recently renamed DC chapter of the Audubon Society.

>> Nicholas: Okay, there was your clip. I'm actually super curious about what people are going to answer that with, so I'm already sold on the podcast, but whatever. Okay, here are your options. Pratik. Number one, Quakers today. Number two, friends among us. And number three, learning in good faith. I'd like to point out while you decide, if anyone says the word sus after I just said it now, because I mentioned among us, it is an automatic DQ.

What were the choices again? Quakers today, friends among us or learning in good faith? I'm just going to go for the second one. Friends among us. No idea. Really? Okay. I am so sorry, Pratik. That was not the correct answer. Did any of us get it correct today? Christy. Christy did, didn't he? No, he did. Mom. In it. I was wrong. No one has. You were all wrong today. D***. How about that? Alyssa's pitching a perfect

game. Cool. The correct answer was Quakers today, and the episode in question is very aptly titled Quakers and welcome. And here's our description. Quakers today features writers, musicians, and thinkers who are seeking wisdom and understanding in a rapidly changing world. We do not pretend to have all the answers. Instead, we have a place where you can hear people speak from the heart, grapple with faith and share the insights they've found

along the way. It's a place where you'll have the opportunity to share your own insights, reflections and questions. Hosted by Peterson Toscano, Quakers today is the project of the Friends Publishing corporation. So there you go. I'm, just so curious about that question, seriously. I'm actually going to, like, tune into their next episode because I want to know what people are going to name check in there. So cool. And now that everyone has gone, let's just give it one last

go, you know? Let's have everyone team up, because why not? So if everyone will just cover their eyes, please. And Christy could fight the urge to hum the theme to evangelion. >> Speaker F: It's like it's this cycle. We want more, we want more, we want more. But yet when we look around at today's times, most people are unhappy. They're a lot unhappier than they were when I was growing up. So it just kind of shows me that having more doesn't really equal happiness. So I think, you know, for

me, it's just that different type of financial approach. And I try to tell people, I personally believe that money leads to experience and opportunities like we get to take. We just got back. My mom is a big LA Dodger fan and we actually went out to LA last weekend. My brother met us out there, watched the Braves Dodger game. Got to watch two of them, and that took money to do, but yet that experience is something that will last forever. And that's kind of the way I view money. That, yeah,

it's nice to have a big house. Nice or whatever, those things come and go, but the memories that we create and the opportunities we create for ourselves, those are the things that are everlasting. So I think for me, that's where my financial advice comes from, is I just see these. A lot of people are very unhappy in life, even though they could make a lot of money. >> Nicholas: Trey. Okay, there was your clip, and here are your options. Let's see if

anyone gets this one right today. Number one, leading and learning along the way,

an educator podcast. Number two, teaching, learning, leading k through twelve. And number three, my summer project, a podcast for educators. Jesse, did you do any math? I tried and I. So my initial. My initial thoughts were they were going one, two, three, right? And then we went one, two, and then it went back to one, and then it was one again. So how about that? >> Elissa: Math won't help you here.

>> Nicholas: It's it never has. Ironically, on the Educator podcast, math is of no use to you. I don't mind the last one, the secret project one. My summer project. Summer project. I was. I was liking that one, too. I love the phrase. I don't mind it. It's just. It's pure vibes. Yeah. Yeah. There's no reasoning. Yeah. I guess I'm finding the third one also. Yeah, the third one held the door open for you guys. So you're picking. What do y'all think? Let's

do it. Good vibes. I like the vibe. Summer project. Okay. My summer project, a podcast for educators, is incorrect. It was teaching learning, leading k through twelve. The second choice, it would have been really funny if it was the first one. That would have been great. I would have lost it. We wouldn't like. The call would have frozen for Jesse because he would have flipped his table over and broke his laptop at that moment. Yeah, it would have caught me a really funny

face. Yeah. So this was from the episode Danny Kafk, money Management mentoro. I'm assuming that's mentor and the podcast run with the Bulls 680. Here's our description. This audio podcast is comprised of interviews and solo shows focused on providing ideas and resources for k through twelve teachers and school based administrators. It's updated twice a week. Doctor Steven Mileto has been

an educator in Georgia for 34 years. He served public school families as a history teacher, assistant principal, and high school principal. In 2009, he was the Georgia principal of the year and finalist for, and finalist for the NASSP Metlife National Principal of the year in 2010. Currently, he is the executive director of a regional educational service agency, Resa, in

Georgia US. I just want to point out, I know how obvious it sounds that it would exist, but I never would have thought that there was, like, the Oscars for principles. Like, like, after someone says there is, I'm kind of like, yeah, that makes sense. But good for him, being an na na s p national principal of the year finalist. Just good on you, dude. At any rate, quick research. It is not a typo. Mentoro is some type of mentoring company. Oh, okay. That makes sense.

Yeah. And I think. I'm guessing it's a play on Toro. So heads run with the bulls. Oh, wow. Yeah, that adds up. Okay. Very cool. yeah, yeah. This code's an older one, but it checks out. So, yeah, I just had to throw a Star wars joke in there because it's me. That's my gimmick. So, yeah, very cool stuff all around. So sorry that nobody got any. Right? Is that the first time this has happened? >> Elissa: It's not. just a long time. >> Nicholas: Well, that's good time coming. Yeah.

Hopefully you guys get your act together next time. Game keeps evolving, keeps just, like, putting the shot clock in the basketball game, make it more dynamic. Could we actually. I could buy a shot clock for next week. Like, just a really loud buzzer just goes off if you don't answer in 10 seconds. Yeah, I like that. And we should have an announcer, too, who's, like, talking about. Talking about everything as it's happening. A lot of people talking over each other, but, yeah,

the more like basketball it is, the more I'm going to like it. So I think let's do it. Fair enough. Fair enough. I'm okay with this. All right, cool. Well, thank you for playing, everyone, and we'll catch you next week for the next episode.
