If you’re a guest on someone’s podcast, it’s important to remember that fact: you’re the guest. Even though you’re brought on to tell your story or be an expert on a topic, you’re still the guest. Try to avoid taking over the show, interrupting the host, etc. Let them lead you.

@wjmaggos Oh certainly. There's always exceptions to rules - i.e. Robin Williams on a talk show back in the day - but when you can tell the host is feeling run over, it gets a little cringe as the kid say.

I can’t read the full article, but Bloomberg has leaked that Descript is buying Squadcast. Descript is a transcription / screencast / editing app, Squadcast is for recording and live streaming podcast conversations. Interesting acquisition. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-08-15/podcast-editor-descript-buys-recording-service-squadcast-in-latest-industry-deal#xj4y7vzkg

@grammargirl It is! We'll see what Descript announces officially later today. I hope it's more than just "one click integration between SquadCast and Descript"—but we'll see.

@grammargirl The bigger factor for me is how well I know the client. If I trust them, then waiting isn't a problem. But if it's a new client, I always like to get a payment through asap so that I know their accounts payable or whatever department isn't going to give me the run around getting paid.

@grammargirl I agree. I also agree as a podcast editor who's slightly lazy and doesn't want to have to come up with even more assets for every episode. :) The one place it looks good is on a podcast's website where episodes stand out from each other.

Why your podcast needs a website #203: When I’m linking to your podcast from another podcast’s show notes, I’m not putting Spotify, Apple, YouTube, Pocket Casts, Podtail, Podchaser, Libsyn, RSS, BlueBorfy, PodTats, CastsThatArePods, etc. links.I’m putting one so listeners can decide.

@james @js @genebean lol I set it up for a few local churches. I don’t think any of them ever look at it. 😆

@james @js Randomly noticed that my own underconstruction.gif podcast has OP3 support checked in Transistor, but doesn't show up? Any idea why? (I'm fully prepared for the answer to be: nobody has downloaded an episode. lol) https://feeds.transistor.fm/conversations-with-my-night-brain

@grammargirl I used to do that method, then I switched to just always having my newsletter open in a tab and copy / pasting everything into it as I find it. Then when it comes time to send it out, I just delete / rewrite / edit what makes sense then?

@grammargirl Revue was a newsletter app that used to do this really well. But then Twitter bought it, and Elon killed it. 😔

Libraries are the best. I just found out you can borrow day passes from the Saskatoon Library for parks and other attractions in the city. https://chrisenns.com/2024/05/borrow-passes-from-the-saskatoon-library/

@js I am so surprised that the free garbage podcast host is also the source of the most garbage podcasts. 😱😱😱😱

You know what I’ve never thought while pulling my phone out of my pocket to check something? “This would be so much better if I had to unfold it first.”
