Future Proof Your Branding

Daniel and I chat about the importance of branding your funding link to your own show, rather than sending people to something like patreon.com/yourshow, and we share examples like my own page, askthepodcastcoach.com/awesome, and Daniel’s theaudacitytopodcast.com/giveback. I explain why having these branded links gives you control, future proofs your funding page, and lets you move between services if something better comes along.

You Can Link to Anything

We also talk through ideas for what your funding tag could actually link to—it doesn’t have to be a traditional donation page. Get creative! It could be a volunteer page, a merch store, or even a way for someone to send you cookies. Daniel points out that the funding tag is just a link, and it doesn’t even have to be about money. It all comes back to building a page that fits your show and your brand.

Other highlights include:

• Tips for making your funding call-to-action less awkward and more value-focused
• How I use dynamic pre-rolls to thank supporters and give them a quick shoutout
• The importance of reinforcing your brand in your URLs and CTAs
• Why convenience is crucial for getting support, and the direction podcast tech is heading for seamless giving

• In this episode of The Future of Podcasting, I (Dave Jackson) sit down with co-host Daniel J. Lewis to talk all about the podcast funding tag and new ways podcasters can get value for the value they provide. We dig into the mindset a lot of podcasters have about monetization, why it can feel awkward to ask for funding, and how the funding tag makes it simple and (dare I say) fun to encourage support from your listeners.

After a bit of a break, we reflect on why this year’s been a challenging one—most notably the loss of our good friend, Todd Cochran, which really sucked the energy out of both of us. It’s felt strange attending podcast conferences and not seeing Todd. At one recent event, his absence sparked memories and stories among all the old-timers.

  Other Losses

  We recognized some other major changes and losses in the podcasting community, including Neil Galarte’s passing and the impact of Charlie Kirk’s assassination and martyrdom, which had waves in the podcasting world.

  Conferences

  Conferences have seen big shifts. Podcast Movement, once growing rapidly, is now feeling smaller and more intimate and seems to be returning to its roots. I shared my thoughts on the move to New York City, which might benefit big name podcasters and networks, but I wonder if it’s pricing out independent podcasters. On the other hand, PodFest feels like it’s holding onto that independent creator vibe.

  Evolutions is now co-locating with South by Southwest, which is another smart move for reaching broader media attention, even if affordability remains a concern. We talked about past conferences co-locating with bigger events (like New Media Expo merging with other conventions) and the community getting lost—hoping Podcast Movement avoids those mistakes.

  For creators weighing which events to attend, we think Evolutions at South by Southwest could be a more fun opportunity if you can afford it—there’s energy from all kinds of independent creators.

  We discussed how post-Covid realities and inflation have changed conference dynamics, from higher travel and hotel costs to more people realizing they don’t need conferences to learn about podcasting. Knowledge is now much more decentralized and accessible through online platforms, AI, Facebook groups, Reddit, and YouTube.

  The Tech Side of Things

  On the tech side, we shared frustrations over the video-first focus and the pressure to be on YouTube, even for podcasters who love audio. I’m recording video but not finding time or motivation to edit and post it. There might be a resurgence of love for audio-only content as people seek flexibility and less bandwidth consumption.

  We also reflected on the rise of audiobooks and Kindle reading, how books are often more focused than podcasts, and how my own listening habits have shifted—I’m now consuming more audiobooks than podcasts.

  Show Retirements

  Some big podcasters ended their shows, like Marc Maron. As podcasting passes the 20-year mark, retirement and shifting priorities for veteran podcasters are becoming more common. Rob Greenlee isn’t bringing back New Media Show, and Libsyn’s The Feed was quietly shut down, prompting Rob Walsh to revive Podcast 411.

  Got Feedback?

  We invited listeners to let us know if you’d like this show to take on topics the New Media Show used to discuss, covering more present-day podcast issues, not just future trends.

  Streaming Sats...

  Streaming Satoshi payments and Podcasting 2.0 have hit bumps, and Adam Curry says mass adoption could take another decade—so our expectations needed realignment. We covered the technical challenges with payment metadata and discussed building future-proof solutions. Daniel suggested payments should be sent after an episode is finished rather than streaming constantly, and Daniel mentioned separating metadata and payment channels for better flexibility.

  Podchapters ROCKS!

  Podchapters ROCKS!

  On the tool front, I praised Daniel’s new tool, PodChapters.com, which uses AI to generate podcast chapters—I found it genuinely superior for long, messy episodes with lots of topics.

  Apple News

  We celebrated the news that Apple will support Podcasting 2.0’s chapter spec in the next iOS release (26.2), a move that promises better compatibility and optional chaptering, not just auto-generation inside Apple Podcasts.

  We wrapped up with a reminder to send in your feedback and support:

Forget about your basic square images and get ready for some serious upgrades. In this episode, we explain what this new tag means for podcasters trying to get their visual game on point. We’re not just stuck with one dull image anymore; in the future we can throw in multiple formats for all kinds of uses – think banners, hero images, or even circular crops that fit better in certain apps.

  We talk about the real-world applications of this new image tag. How are we going to implement this? How will media hosts adapt? It’s all about making the user experience smoother while giving us creative freedom. We share our thoughts on the best practices for using this tag and what we hope to see from the podcasting community as everyone gets their hands on this new tool. With a demo link in the show notes, you can see the magic for yourself and join us in this exciting new era of podcasting.

  Takeaways:

  • The new image tag is like a breath of fresh air, allowing podcasters to ditch the one-size-fits-all image approach and embrace multiple formats, finally giving us the variety we never knew we needed.
  • Podcasting 2.0 is not just about updating old features; it's about revolutionizing how we present our content visually and ensuring we're not stuck in the past with those boring square images.
  • Say goodbye to the days of having just one image per podcast! With the new image tag, we can now flaunt a whole gallery of visuals, because who doesn't want more options in life?
  • The capability to use animated gifs or even video in podcast imagery is a game-changer, turning our once static feeds into dynamic showcases that can actually grab listeners' attention.
  • Expect some chaos as hosting platforms scramble to support this new feature; it's going to be a wild ride figuring out how to integrate all these new image styles and purposes into user-friendly dashboards.
  • The potential for creative expression is limitless with the new image tag, but it also raises the question: will we see an explosion of design creativity or a chaotic mess of visual overload?

Yeah, we went there. While everyone’s been busy drooling over video streaming, we decided to throw audio into the mix. Because why should video have all the fun, right? We’re talking about HLS and how it’s not just a flashy gimmick for video content, but has some sweet benefits for audio too.

  Think about it: seamless switching between quality levels based on your bandwidth, kind of like when you’re trying to watch a video and your Wi-Fi decides to take a nap. You start in glorious HD, and then BAM! It’s 240p because the Internet gods are not smiling upon you today. But with HLS, you could slide right into that audio version without missing a beat, or a word, or the rant about the latest podcasting trends.

  We get into the techy stuff, like how HLS breaks media files into bite-sized chunks, making it easier to serve up different quality options. It’s like a buffet, but for your ears. Want low-quality audio because you’re on the go, or do you want to kick it up a notch when you’re back home? HLS has got your back.

  And let’s be real, who doesn’t want that? Plus, we also touched on the whole “dynamic content” thing—imagine being able to swap out segments of your podcast without having to re-upload the entire thing. Say goodbye to those embarrassing moments where you realize your co-host’s mic was off for half the episode. With HLS, you could just fix that part and let the rest ride on.

  By the end of the episode, we’re practically drooling over the possibilities HLS brings to audio. It might not be here yet, but we’re holding out hope that the podcasting world will eventually get with the times. Who knows? Maybe one day we’ll look back and laugh about the days of static audio files. But for now, we’re just here, dreaming of the future and trying to make sense of the tech that will get us there. So kick back, grab your earbuds, and let’s figure out how to make podcasting better, one HLS chunk at a time!

  Takeaways:

  1. HLS isn't just for video; it has potential benefits for audio podcasting too, which is like, who knew?
  2. Imagine being able to switch between audio and video seamlessly thanks to HLS; the future of podcasting is wild!
  3. The idea of dynamic content insertion could revolutionize how we listen to podcasts, but privacy concerns might rain on this parade.
  4. HLS allows for replacing segments of a podcast without re-uploading the entire file, which is a total game-changer for podcasters.
  5. With HLS, bandwidth issues can be tackled by switching audio quality on the fly, making it super user-friendly, especially for peeps outside the US.
  6. The Podcast Standards Project is where the magic is happening for HLS discussions, so if you're into podcasting, keep an eye on that.

This isn’t just any tech talk, though; we’re questioning if we’re even solving a problem that exists or if we’re just adding more jargon to confuse the masses.

  I mean, is anyone really crying out for better video podcasting tech? Or are we just trying to keep up with the YouTube cool kids who’ve already perfected the art of distraction? Spoiler alert: the answer is probably more ironic than you’d think. As we explore how HLS breaks videos into tiny chunks, allowing seamless transitions and dynamic quality adjustments, we also ponder if this is really innovation or just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Are we actually creating a better user experience, or just making it easier for advertisers to track our every move? It's a slippery slope, folks, and we’re here for the ride.

  Breaking Down HLS

  Let’s break it down: HLS could actually save us cash by optimizing bandwidth usage. Remember when we’d watch video podcasts loaded with high-res content that our devices couldn’t even handle? Yeah, that’s about to change. With HLS, we can serve the right quality for the right device, so you can watch that 4K video on your desktop and avoid buffering like a pro. But here’s the kicker: while the tech sounds great, we’re left scratching our heads about the overall cost of hosting and whether this is just another excuse for companies to raise prices.

  Sure, we can track how long people are engaging with our content, but let’s be real—are we doing this to enhance the viewer experience or to make advertisers happy? The whole thing feels a bit like we’re trying to sell ice to Eskimos.

  Is Video Really The Future?

  As we wrap things up, we’re reflecting on the absurdity of it all. Is video really the future of podcasting, or are we just following trends because everyone else is? I mean, when was the last time you wished your favorite podcast was a video instead? Yeah, didn’t think so.

  We’re bombarded with video content everywhere we turn, yet somehow the charm of an audio podcast remains. So, is HLS the savior of podcasting or just another shiny object to distract us from the real issues? You’ll have to tune in to find out, but one thing’s for sure: the future of podcasting is going to be anything but boring.

  Takeaways:

  1. So, like, HLS is totally shaking up the podcasting world, but seriously, are we even solving a problem here?
  2. HTTP Live Streaming, or HLS, is basically the new cool kid on the block, but is it even worth the hype?
  3. We’ve got to think about who benefits from HLS – is it the podcasters or just the advertisers?
  4. Video podcasts are fancy, but if they cost a fortune to host, who’s really gonna bother?
  5. Sure, HLS lets us see how far people listen, but is that really the game changer we’ve been waiting for?
  6. In the end, it’s a wild ride figuring out whether HLS is revolutionary or just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

Our hosts, Dave and Daniel, are here to unpack this idea with a good dose of sarcasm and wit.

  They start by discussing how many podcasters feel their legitimacy hinges on securing that sweet sponsorship deal. Seriously, why do we still tie our worth to advertisers? It’s like saying your podcast is only good if someone’s paying you to talk about toothpaste. No thanks! They argue that the real value comes from the connection you build with your listeners, which is way more important than any sponsor deal could ever be.

  Then, they get into the tech aspect, where things get spicy with the mention of streaming satoshis. Like, what even is that? It’s a way to send tiny payments while you listen, but the hosts get into the nitty-gritty of why that might not be the golden ticket we all hope for. They share a laugh about how certain payment platforms have these ridiculous fees that make micropayments basically non-existent. Can you imagine trying to send your podcaster a couple of cents, only for the platform to gobble it all up? It’s a comedy of errors waiting to happen!

  By the end, they’re pondering the future of this ‘value for value’ model and whether it’ll actually pan out or if we’ll just be stuck in the same old cycle of sponsorship and ads. They’re like, ‘What if we could create a world where podcasters are rewarded for the actual value they bring?’ It’s a hopeful, yet ironic look at the absurdity of our current monetization strategies. Yeah, we’re all in for the ride, but let’s hope the destination is worth it!

  Takeaways:

  1. The future of podcasting is a wild ride, with the concept of value for value leading the charge, but don't be surprised if it gets bumpy along the way.
  2. Value for value isn't just about cash; it's about the joy you bring to listeners, even if you're not rolling in the dough from sponsors.
  3. Remember, just because your podcast isn't a cash cow doesn't mean it's not valuable; sometimes fun is worth more than money, right?
  4. Streaming payments could revolutionize podcast monetization, but you know, only if the tech doesn't implode on itself first.
  5. Watch out for the 'donate' trap! It could get you in trouble with the tax man, so maybe stick to saying 'give back' instead.
  6. The whole payment landscape for podcasts is changing, and not just because Apple got slapped with a court ruling; it's about making things easy for everyone involved.

  Both Dave and Daniel look into this chaotic whirlpool of video versus audio, dissecting what it means for podcasters today.

  They explore the undeniable truth that video isn’t just a fad; it’s here to stay, and it’s reshaping how we perceive and consume content. The discussion flits around the implications of integrating video into podcasts, from the logistical hurdles to the creative opportunities it presents.

  What does a video strategy for podcasts even look like?

  How do we balance the audio-first approach with the visual demands of platforms like YouTube?

  They don’t shy away from the absurdity of the situation, pointing out that our beloved audio-only formats are now competing in a world where thumbnails and visual aesthetics are king.

  It’s an engaging conversation that highlights the need for podcasters to rethink their content delivery methods, embracing the reality of video while still cherishing the art of audio storytelling.

  Takeaways:

  1. Video is not just a fad; it's a staple of podcasting's future, so get used to it!
  2. Podcasting and video are like peanut butter and jelly—totally meant to be together.
  3. If you're still clinging to audio only, it's time to consider a video strategy for your podcast. Seriously, don't be that person.
  4. YouTube is the new podcast platform, whether you like it or not. Better learn how to play the thumbnail game!
  5. Embrace the chaos of video content; it’s here to stay, whether you like it or not.
  6. If you're thinking about starting a video podcast, make sure you actually have a plan—winging it won't cut it!

That’s the million-dollar question we’re tackling today. We dive deep into the future of podcasting and whether those little corner spots on the internet are still relevant or just relics of a bygone era. With tools like WordPress getting easier and new platforms popping up, we explore the bizarre landscape of website creation for podcasters—because who doesn't love a good debate about whether to stick with the old-school methods or jump on the latest trends? Spoiler alert: we might not have all the answers, but we sure have a lot of sarcastic opinions on the absurdity of keeping a website in a TikTok world. So grab your headphones and let's figure out if your podcast needs a home or if it’s time to just float in the digital ether like a lost episode.

  >> Alright, folks, let’s dive into the chaotic whirlwind that is podcasting websites! Picture this: we’re sitting around, sipping our overpriced lattes, and the million-dollar question pops up – do we even need to create podcast websites anymore? Spoiler alert: it’s a mess! We’ve got the old-timers clinging to their WordPress themes like it’s a lifebuoy on the sinking ship of the internet, while the new kids are all about the cool, shiny app platforms. Remember when a website was your podcast’s home base? Now it feels like we’re just throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks. Sure, we’ve got tools like PodPage making life easier, but does anyone actually visit websites anymore? We’ve got TikTok stars telling us to build our empires on their platforms, but what happens when the next big thing comes along and wipes them off the map? It’s a digital Wild West out there, and we’re all just trying to stake our claim.

  In this episode, we explore the evolution of podcasting websites and the tools we’ve used over the years, from the dreaded Dreamweaver to the clunky WordPress plugins. And let’s not forget the nightmare of SEO – is it even worth it? With the rise of AI and social media platforms, we’re questioning if a website is still relevant or just an overpriced digital business card. We’ve seen the stats; most folks discover podcasts through word of mouth, so why not just focus on making killer content and let the algorithms do the rest? But hey, if you’re not sending your listeners to your own site, where are they going? We’re all just a click away from being lost in the abyss of the internet, and that’s a sobering thought.

  So where does that leave us? Are we website advocates or just holding onto a relic of the past? With sarcasm dripping from our voices, we ponder whether it’s time to toss the website out entirely or double down and make it the best digital hangout spot for our loyal listeners. Because at the end of the day, we want them to find us and hit play, right? If not, we might as well just record our musings into the void and hope someone stumbles upon them while scrolling through TikTok.

  
  

  >> As we tumble down this rabbit hole, let’s discuss the absurdity of our reliance on platforms that could vanish tomorrow. We’ve got folks building massive followings on TikTok, but what’s the plan when that platform decides to pull the rug out from under us? In this episode, we dive into the absurdity of the podcasting ecosystem where it seems like the only constant is change. With the rise of AI, we’re seeing more creators turning to tech to enhance their craft, but we can’t help but roll our eyes at the irony – here we are, creators, relying on algorithms to get our art out there. It’s like trying to catch fish with a net full of holes.

  
  

  We take a hard look at the tools of the trade, from the shiny new website builders to the age-old debate over whether to stick with WordPress or jump ship to something less complicated.

  We take a hard look at the tools of the trade, from the shiny new website builders to the age-old debate over whether to stick with WordPress or jump ship to something less complicated. And let’s throw in a few laughs about our nostalgic memories of Microsoft Front Page and the dark days of HTML coding. We’ve come a long way, baby! But with convenience comes a trade-off; are we sacrificing quality for ease? It’s a tug-of-war between the need for a digital presence and the reality that our audience may never actually visit our websites.

  
  

  In the end, it’s not just about having a website; it’s about creating a space where our audience feels connected and engaged. We’re all just trying to navigate this wild west of podcasting, and whether we decide to keep our websites or not, one thing’s for sure – we’re in for one heck of a ride!

  
  

  >> Let’s wrap this up with a delightful existential crisis, shall we? As we dissect the current landscape of podcasting websites, we can’t help but wonder: are we all just shouting into the void? In this episode, we tackle the sobering reality that while creating a website may seem essential, it may not be the be-all and end-all for podcasters anymore. With platforms like TikTok and YouTube stealing the spotlight, we’re left pondering whether our websites are just digital ghosts of our past.

  
  

  We dig into the absurdity of relying on AI and social media algorithms to get our voices heard, only to discover that the very tools we thought would elevate our podcasts could also box us into obscurity. Sure, we’ve got the tools and the tech to build beautiful websites, but how many people actually click through to listen? And what’s the point of all that effort if no one ever gets to our content? We grapple with the irony that our success might hinge more on our presence on social media than on our carefully crafted websites.

  
  

  In this chaotic discussion, we explore the value of having a website as your podcasting home base, while acknowledging the reality that our digital footprints might be more like breadcrumbs leading to nowhere. We challenge ourselves to rethink our strategy: should we focus on creating shareable content that drives traffic to our sites, or should we just embrace the platforms that are currently thriving? As we wrap up this existential journey, we’re left with one burning question: what’s the future of podcasting, and do we still need a website to thrive in it?

  Takeaways:

  1. Creating a website for your podcast is, like, totally still a thing, right? I mean, who doesn’t want a little corner of the Internet to call home?
  2. WordPress has had its ups and downs, but now it’s easier than ever with cool plugins. Finally, it’s not rocket science anymore, thank goodness!
  3. So, we’ve got these fancy new website builders, but, like, are they even good for podcasts? Sometimes it feels like they’re just trying to sell you a pretty picture and call it a day.
  4. AI tools are cool and all, but let’s be real: If everyone just relies on them for answers, we might end up dumber as a society. Can we just not?
  5. The future of search and discovery is getting wild—are people really going to your website, or will they just Google your podcast name and hope for the best?
  6. Don't forget: even with all this tech, word of mouth is still king. If your friends can’t find your podcast, did it even exist?

We dig into some inspiring listener feedback and discuss how innovations from Podcasting 2.0 are opening up exciting new avenues for creators of all kinds. We're talking about moving past interviews and discussions—think audiobooks, music albums, and interactive storytelling experiences.

  Dave shares some nostalgic memories about the PodSafe Music Network and how new platforms like Wave Lake might just bring that magic back. Plus, we bounce around ideas about how musicians, authors, and other creatives can use podcasting to connect more deeply with their audiences and earn real support directly from their listeners.

  Thanks for all the feedback!

  ]]>In this episode, we explore how the world of podcasting can stretch far beyond what we traditionally think of as talk shows. We dig into some inspiring listener feedback and discuss how innovations from Podcasting 2.0 are opening up exciting new avenues for creators of all kinds. We're talking about moving past interviews and discussions—think audiobooks, music albums, and interactive storytelling experiences.

  Dave shares some nostalgic memories about the PodSafe Music Network and how new platforms like Wave Lake might just bring that magic back. Plus, we bounce around ideas about how musicians, authors, and other creatives can use podcasting to connect more deeply with their audiences and earn real support directly from their listeners.

  Thanks for all the feedback!

  Code For Live Item

  Alby

   

  Why is it called the Live Item?  The term "Live Item Tag" in the podcasting world, also known as "lit," represents an innovation that aims to integrate the live experience from platforms like YouTube into podcast apps. This feature allows listeners to seamlessly tap and jump to listen or watch live content while a podcast is being recorded, effectively bringing the live experience directly to the podcast app.

  What It Does The Live Item Tag replaces the traditional "item" tag in an RSS feed and utilizes attributes such as "pending," "live," or "ended" to notify podcast apps of the live status of an episode. Essentially, it bridges the gap between live streaming platforms and podcast apps, enabling a smoother and more integrated experience for both podcasters and listeners. Status Options When using the Live Item Tag, podcasters can update the status of their episodes as "pending," "live," or "ended," providing real-time information to listeners about the live status of a particular episode. This functionality enhances engagement and allows for a more dynamic and interactive podcast experience within the app.

  Do We Need To Worry About This? Considering the future progression of podcasting technology, integrating live streaming experiences into podcast apps seems to be a natural evolution. While the current implementation may have its complexities, future tools and platforms are expected to simplify the process, making it more accessible to podcasters.

  Coding 2.0 In Libsyn 4 You can add code in Libsyn Four. If you don't know what you're doing, we do not recommend this.  Show or Episode Level The use of the Live Item Tag can be implemented at both the show and episode levels, providing flexibility for podcasters to enhance their content with live streaming. This granularity enables precise control over which episodes are presented as live, offering a tailored approach to audience engagement. What Apps Support This? Several podcast apps, including True Fans, Podverse, and Podcast Guru, are embracing the Live Item Tag feature, acknowledging its potential to transform the podcast listening experience. This reflects a growing interest and demand for integrating live streaming functionalities within podcast platforms. See In this episode, hosts Daniel J.

Several podcast apps, including True Fans, Podverse, and Podcast Guru, are embracing the Live Item Tag feature, acknowledging its potential to transform the podcast listening experience. This reflects a growing interest and demand for integrating live streaming functionalities within podcast platforms. See www.modernpodcastapps.com

  Streaming Radio Radiolize The mention of streaming radio, particularly its popularity in Europe and the use of online tools for online DJing, showcases the broader landscape of live audio experiences. This acknowledgment underscores the potential for integrating diverse live content into podcasts, catering to varied listener preferences and interests. See Radiolize.com

  Content Link The addition of the "podcast:content link" tag further expands the possibilities for linking live content, such as streaming URLs from platforms that provide those links (Mixlr? Radiolize?). This tag acts as a fallback for non-podcast app streaming, diversifying the avenues through which listeners can access live experiences. The Tricky Part? While the Live Item Tag presents a forward-looking solution, its implementation may require careful consideration and technical acumen, especially when dealing with platforms that have yet to fully adopt this technology. However, as the podcasting ecosystem evolves, the tools and processes surrounding the Live Item Tag are expected to become more user-friendly. I Think I Understand It Now Understanding the Live Item Tag involves recognizing its role in seamlessly blending live streaming experiences with traditional podcast episodes within podcast apps. This realization positions podcasters and content creators to deliver more engaging and dynamic content, catering to the evolving preferences of listeners.

  Still Pretty Cutting Edge at This Time It's important to acknowledge that the Live Item Tag is currently at the cutting edge of podcasting technology. Its emerging status highlights the ongoing evolution and exploration of new avenues for enhancing the podcasting experience, as well as the potential for further advancements in this space. You Can Have More Than One The flexibility to incorporate multiple content links with different text descriptions or purposes accentuates the versatility of the Live Item Tag. This capability enables podcasters to curate and present diverse live-streaming experiences, catering to their specific content and audience engagement strategies. Alby is Invite Only For Now The mention of Alby, an invite-only platform, underlines the exclusive and progressive nature of the Live Item Tag landscape. This exclusivity hints at the exploration and experimental nature of this feature, as well as its potential to shape the future podcasting ecosystem. BOOSTS! The concept of receiving "streams" and "boostagrams" from listeners highlights the reciprocal and interactive nature of podcasting, indicating a community-driven approach to content creation. This interactivity aligns with the essence of the Live Item Tag, which seeks to foster real-time engagement and connections between podcasters and their audience. In conclusion, the Live Item Tag represents a significant advancement in the integration of live streaming experiences within podcast apps. While it currently stands at the forefront of podcasting technology, its potential to reshape the podcasting landscape and elevate audience engagement is evident. As this innovative feature continues to evolve, podcasters and content creators can anticipate a more seamlessly integrated live podcasting experience, redefining the future of podcasting.

  Podcasting doesn't have to be a choice between audio or video. Thanks to alternate enclosures, creators can offer both formats to cater to different preferences. The ability to provide a seamless experience across various media types is a game-changer for podcasters aiming to reach a wider audience.

  The question of whether the average podcaster cares about alternate enclosures is a valid one. While not every podcaster may have the resources or desire to produce different media formats, it's essential to acknowledge the diverse needs of listeners.

The recent case of Glenn Beck, a popular conservative radio and podcast host, being removed from Apple Podcasts raised questions about the extent of free speech and the role of centralized platforms. However "deplatforming" incidents are not always rooted in censorship. In this episode, we delve into the complexities behind podcast removals, exploring the Glenn Beck Program case, communication issues with Apple Podcasts, and the need for improved strategies within the podcasting community.

  The Glenn Beck Program Removed from Apple Podcasts:

  Glenn Beck's removal from Apple Podcasts garnered significant attention due to its knee-jerk association with censorship concerns. However, it is important to differentiate between removal due to potential violations and outright censorship. While the details of the violation were not uncovered until later, it highlights the complexity surrounding podcast removals and the need to respect trademark and copyright laws.

  Was it a Technical Issue?

  Initially, it was speculated that the removal of the Glenn Beck Program was a technical glitch because there were certainly technical problems with his podcast RSS feed. These included the size (11.5 MB, which led to stability issues), redundant data, and a large cover art file size. We were surprised it actually wasn't a technical issue after all and that his show even worked before this takedown!

  A Trademark Violation was to Blame

  In the case of the Glenn Beck Program, it was the trademark rights holder who complained to Apple (after not getting the demanded action from Glenn Beck's team), prompting the removal. While this action can be seen as an appropriate response to a trademark violation, it also raises questions about whether podcast hosting providers should be the central point for addressing trademark issues rather than relying solely on the platforms, like Apple Podcasts.

  Apple Doesn't Always Communicate Well

  One recurring issue surrounding podcast removals, in general, is the lack of effective communication from Apple Podcasts. The lack of specific details regarding technical issues or policy violations has led to confusion and panic within the podcasting community. Improved communication channels and transparency would be beneficial in addressing concerns and avoiding the spread of fear, accusations, and misunderstandings.

  Deplatforming: Centralized versus Decentralized

  The Beck incident highlights the debate between centralized and decentralized podcasting platforms. While centralized platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify offer the benefit of potential notifications for issues, they also hold the power to remove content without clear guidelines or explanations. This raises concerns about potential censorship when the content is the least bit controversial (no matter which political direction it leans). On the other hand, decentralized catalogs like Podcast Index offer more freedom and less likelihood of corporate- or government-driven censorship.

  Podcast-Hosting Providers Need to Handle Problems Better

  To mitigate the risks of sudden removals, podcast-hosting providers should play a more proactive role in addressing issues. They should be monitoring feeds for potential problems or even disallowing problematic stuff to be uploaded in the first place, such as large images or invalid HTML or RSS. Any of these, and more technical errors, can lead to removals or performance problems on major podcast apps and directories. Additionally, hosting providers should take the lead in resolving trademark or copyright concerns and ensure ample communication with podcasters to avoid unnecessary panic.

Additionally, hosting providers should take the lead in resolving trademark or copyright concerns and ensure ample communication with podcasters to avoid unnecessary panic.

  Make Yourself Easy to Contact!

  Podcasters need to be easily reachable when issues arise. Including contact information within podcast feeds and ensuring that email addresses are not removed can facilitate communication with hosting providers and mitigate the risk of immediate removal without proper dialogue. But removing email addresses from feeds helps protect podcasters' privacy. So no matter what, have a clearly labeled contact page on your website!

  Ensure Your Feed Is Working!

  Technical issues lead to most podcast removals. We advise podcasters to maintain separate feeds for their podcasts, especially if they use the same publishing tool for blogging. This practice can help mitigate the risk of feed issues, including offline feeds or missing episodes.

  An Environment of Oversensitivity

  This incident also reflects a growing climate of oversensitivity, where legal concerns or even technical issues are misinterpreted as censorship. While there are legitimate cases of censorship, it is crucial to separate these instances from other challenges podcasters face.

  Never Let a Good Catastrophe Go to Waste:

  The podcasting community can learn valuable lessons from incidents like the Glenn Beck removal. Along with other negative events like a DDOS attack, a negative review, or something else, even deplatforming can provide opportunities for stronger calls to action in other areas.

Switching hosts and selling shows is something that will be more normal as the early adopters of podcasting look to retire from the microphone. How does value for value tie into this?

We hear phrases like "medium," and "value" but what are they? What can I do with them? Who are they for? 

  New Features From Captivate

  The new features they introduced are:

  • podcast:episode – this tag represents your podcast’s episode number.
  • podcast:season – used for seasonal podcasts to show which episodes are part of which season.
  • podcast:guid – a unique identifier globally recognized number (36 characters) for each podcast RSS feed by the Podcast Index.
  • podcast:locked – you can set this to yes or no. The purpose is to tell other platforms whether they can import this feed.
  • podcast:funding – podcast can tag lists for donation and funding e.g. you can point to Patreon, Buy Me A Coffee, or even PayPal. Integrates with your Captivate donation link.
  • podcast:license – this tag allows podcasters to point to a URL where license terms of a podcast live.
  • podcast:medium – tells the application what the content contained within the feed IS, as opposed to what the content is ABOUT in the case of a category.
  • podcast:txt – this element holds free-form text and is modeled after the DNS “TXT” record. It’s meant to allow for usages that might be niche or otherwise not rise to the level of needing a dedicated tag.
  • podcast:value – used to enable Value4Value crypto payments.
  • podcast:location – use this tag to describe the location of what the podcast is about. It’s NOT the podcaster’s physical address or location. If it’s a podcast about sightseeing in London recorded by someone in LA, the tag would set this as London.

  • No love story
  • No Villain
  
  

  And Disney brought in someone who said all of the above were missing and they should add the missing elements. By ignoring the notes from Disney, they not only created a great movie, but created a franchise.

  The film placed first in the weekend's box office with $29.1 million[3] and maintained the number-one position at the domestic box office for the next two weekends. Toy Story went on to become the highest-grossing domestic film of 1995.

  In this instance, I feel like Disney. In my last episode, I stated I look for the following in a podcast app:

  • The ability to program settings per show - nope
  • The ability to set streaming amounts per show - nope
  • Speed control per show
  • Playlists - Kind of but not really
  
  

  In a nutshell, Fountain.fm doesn't do many of the things I'm looking for. Does this mean it's a bad app? No. It means it's a bad app for me.

  Who Is This App For?

  The Fountain app is for the listener who fully embraces the streaming satoshi part of the Podcasting 2.0 feature set. Here are the satoshi-related products from their front page

  • You can earn satoshis for listening.
  • You can stream, boost, and like satoshis to your favorite shows
  • You can see Baller Boosts in the Hot on Fountain Chart
  
  

  OTHER FEATURES

  • Hot On Fountain can be found under search (Charts). Many of these are bitcoin-related
  • New lIghting Podcasts (many of these were in Spanish and other languages)
  • The ability to fill your wallet from within the app*
  • Discover section showing clips, boosts and more.
  • Make clips - much improved - just drag and drop.
  • Chapters
  • Carplay
  • Sleep Timer
  
  

  How to Use Tags To Organize Your Episodes/Shows in Fountain.fm

  Click on podcasts at the bottom.

  Click on Shows

  Click on the show and click on the tag icon.

  Click on the "+" and enter a tag. 

  Then click on the tag. Now every new episode will have this tag

  Now when you click on Podcasts at the bottom and click on the episodes or shows tab and you will see the tag.

  The bad news is fountain stops playing after the first episode in your tagged list is over. This is awful for people in the shower or out riding their bike.

  Filling Your Wallet

  I am excited that you can fill your wallet from within the app using a service called Moonpay. That is the good news. The hurdle you will need to overcome is your bank may flag this as suspicious. The first time I attempted to put $30 in my wallet, my bank stopped it and sent me a text asking me if I wanted to do that. I said I did, waited about a minute and tried again, and it worked.

  Are you looking to start your own podcast but don't know...]]>I watched a video featuring the creators of Toy Story reflecting on the movie ten years later. They had a set of rules to not do any of the cliche things you saw in animation. This meant:

  • No songs
  • No "I want."
  • No happy village
  • No love story
  • No Villain

  ]]>0ab3ed25-0922-4ff9-97da-7500482ab282Fri, 10 Feb 2023 00:20:00 -050029:58falsefull66My New Podcast App WishlistIn this episode, I share my opinion on what I look for in a New Podcast App. There are a ton of new features being designed, and I share what and why I look forward to using these features.

  I started using Apple Podcasts App back in 2005 until it broke (and stayed broken for about a week). Then I switched to Overcast, and if Marco (the developer) added streaming sats to the app, I wouldn't be talking about testing other apps. 

  In the past, I've tried fountain and Podverse, but that was a while ago. Both had their pros and cons.

  I'm currently using Castamatic. Why? Because it acts and feels just like Overcast. 

  My Wish List

  Playlists that automatically update when an episode from a specific show download. So I can have a playlist where I add show A, Show B, and Show C, and as soon as any of those shows publish an episode, it's in a specific playlist (Health, Money, Podcasting, Friends). I will also need to sort these by date.

  Playback Settings

  Playback speed Silence trimming Satoshi streaming (setting a level per minute for each show. Some are more valuable than others) Starting and ending points (cause some shows to take forever to get to the good stuff and/or take too long to say goodbye.  Keep X amount of episodes. Delete after listening. Respect anything labeled as serial Sorting oldest to newest

  While we Are At It

  If I could get a search function that works.

  A functional web-based version that is synchronized so I can pick up right where I left off when I pick up my phone.

  The ability to upload a file and have it downloaded into the app.

  I would love it if it worked with Alexa from Amazon.

  Be sure to charge me, so you stay in business.

  Full list at website.

  MAKE IT EASY TO PROMOTE

  I want to point people to MY show on YOUR app. The easier it is to do this, the more likely I am to do it.

When I had a new car, the radio in the car picked up additional advertising-free stations that were good. One dear vs. car crash later, and my car doesn't have HD radio.

  Many of you may not even know about HD radio. For a while, radio stations were promoting it trying to get people to listen, but aside from cars, I'm not sure how many people are buying new radios today (I had to order one off of Amazon to listen to Football games that weren't shown on TV). 

  HD Radio Video Demo

  In the same way that HD is cool (from what I remember, a better "Deep cut" selection of music, actual DJs talking about the music, and zero ads), many of the new features being added to Podcasting are amazing. One feature called the Live Item Tag will alert you when your favorite podcasts go live to record. Currently, only Podverse has this feature enabled, but others will add it soon. 

  Currently, the "Mainstream / Legacy" Apps like Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon do not support any new features. Amazon has mentioned adding transcripts, but instead of using the ALREADY CREATED tag for transcripts, they are going to make their own. 

  If you want to see apps that use some of these new features, go to New Podcast Apps

  WE WANT A DIFFERENT TYPE OF HISTORY

  While HD Radio has been around since 2002. I know many stations announced it, but nobody was talking about it. There was almost zero word of mouth where I live. None of my friends rushed out and bought HD radios.

  There is no "radio community" to pester Sony and other companies to "Make an HD radio receiver for my house." Are you listening to the radio in your house? If I'm listening, it is to a podcast. 

  So this show is to keep you informed and to alert you that one day you will hear the call to "Rally the troops" and make an organized and concerted effort to approach apps, and media hosts to adopt these new features.

  NEW NAME ON THE WAY

  I put this show together in somewhat of a hurry. I skipped one of my own rules. If you need to explain your show's name, you picked a bad name. Consequently, I want to talk about the new features coming into Podcasting 2.0 along with other non-crypto, super technical subjects around the future of podcasting. So, for now, I'm leaning toward calling the show "The Future of Podcasting." This will also give me room to step outside the Podcasting 2.0 space.

  I'm not sure what the schedule will be (or if it will be on an "I record when I find something" schedule). 

  So don't freak out when you see the artwork change or the name change. I love this space and want to be more involved (without having to build a server for the helipad software). 

  Stay tuned...
