@marshal Congrats you two! ❤️

@monicalimco @TransistorFM Hey! I just recorded this quick video explaining why this is the case.

tl;dr – in the same way that Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, Apple Mail all render HTML differently in the email world 👉 Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, etc all render HTML differently in the podcast world.

@cgstrom That’s spicy 🌶️

@thekylemarshall Oooh. That sounds delicious.

@gilbert It’s true.

@BretFisher @TransistorFM It’s challenging, because not all podcast listening apps support custom episode artwork.

This is a good guide:

@djrosent Was the name of this device literally just “32X”? 😅

@johnspurlock 👀 interesting.

Tortoise initially launched on Transistor. (They eventually jumped to Acast for the ad network/ad sales)

@venikunche 😅 the honesty!

@joshcirre @aarondfrancis I’ve already heard from one spouse who listened to the episode. It’d be great to hear from more. 👍

@zackgilbert @aarondfrancis I’m glad it was helpful!

@AnthonyCastrio Podcast hosting and analytics.

No plans for AI (not yet anyway).

@ramon_fritsch Thanks!

@joesuh Yes! I actually don't think I would have bootstrapped a business if it weren't for Canadian public healthcare. 🤔

@GeoffTRoberts I like that. Good addition. 👍

@JackEllis Yes, a full-time job was just an example of having a "strong financial engine."

@flaviocopes Thanks!

My wife has been doing all of that studio setup (with the help of @theKevinShen and his team).

@KatieKeithBarn2 @arvidkahl Agreed! (that's well said)

@shawnblanc Shawn: I would love for you to listen to the episode @aarondfrancis and I did, and then for you and I to do an episode on this topic as well.

(I’ve always had the sense that you and Anna have some wisdom to share here)

@panphora 🫣 me too!

@statamic Love Statamic. ❤️

Congrats on the release! 🎉

Here’s the episode on @spotifypodcasts:

@iChris I wouldn’t worry about it.

There are still going to be podcasters who really want that “human ear” when editing/producing shows.

It might even become a differentiator that separates the mediocre shows from the really compelling ones.

@buildyoursaas I appreciated @aarondfrancis' perspective on this one!

@mbuckbee Haha. Yes!

@petehanssens @adamwathan @tickettailor Is it good for free events as well?

@RaulOnRails It’s hard launching a family and a business at the same time.

They both require so much time, energy, focus.

Personally, I would wait until you have a strong family foundation before you try to build a business.

@stephenrobles @arvidkahl Yup, it helps a ton as they grow up and gain more independence.

@JimWHuffman @BenWilsonTweets Not really: largely because of how podcasts are distributed.

It takes a while for all the listening apps to pick up on changes you’ve made to your RSS feed (changed propagate to all the various indexes over 1-2 hours generally).

Most of your listenership occurs from folks who…

@kevindleahy @arvidkahl Yeah, we started young!

@BryanBarletta Thanks! 🥰

@RamliJohn @TransistorFM I’ll send you one! DM me your size and address.

@Ryan_Pitts I wrote some follow-up tweets that should clarify that.

@realnealveglio @TransistorFM We haven’t had any other reports of embeds not working.

They are working for me:

https://transistor.fm/customers/brains/

@keremtiryaki This could work! I’ll give it a try.

@simonswiss Do you have the same setup?

@Konsistently1 @businessbarista @asmartbear @wpengine @robwalling @MicroConf @TransistorFM @csallen @IndieHackers Thanks! 🙌

@danshipper does this mean I’ll finally be able to learn Turbo Pascal?

@KeliWestgate Yes!!!

@CupOJoseph @pi0neerpat "Amplify each other's strengths" is a good way to put it.

@usamaejaz Exactly

@imgyf 🤣

@theleviallen Thanks! I'll try it out.

@mikker Coding, office work.

@AndrewWHacks Yup! It will also be federated.

@jonhainstock @threehourcoffee They're handing out invite codes very slowly.

@KatLoughrey Haha. Yup.

(And as others have mentioned, when you actually interact with someone in their 20s, there's clearly an age gap!)

@kovyrin Oh, I don't feel like a 25-year-old 'maturity' wise.

It's more of a... "spiritual" in my soul I feel 25. 😄

@webby2001 Hello Chicago!

We are Select the Pants!

This our newest song: Life in the Bottom Drawer!!! 🎸👖

@VicVijayakumar Nice!

@typeoneerror Haha. Mentally?!

With all that 👨‍🚒 🏋️‍♀️ your body probably feels young though!

@thewprockstar Yeah. My body feels old, haha.

But my mind, energy, and aspirations still feels young.

@noahwbragg 🤣

Practically, when I was 25 (with two kids, a mini van, and a mortgage) I probably felt 40. So now I’m just feeling the reverse!

@Teevio Are you familiar with what we're doing over at @PodStandards?

@ianlandsman @stratechery 👀

@abigailotwell Happy birthday James!

@ianlandsman I see the upside of AI (I’m using it too!)

But it’s potential to destroy millions of jobs can’t be underestimated.

It’s only empowering until it takes way your economic earning potential.

This will effect white-collar (lawyers, accountants, programmers), and blue collar…

@dr And, it’s even more striking when you consider:

Impressions > Clicks > Leads > Conversion

(Not that I use Twitter only as a marketing channel, but from a funnel perspective it’s a lot of work for very few leads)

@jasonfried Yes! That’s how I heard about it as well.

The “human history as a book” metaphor is powerful.

@colinloretz @arvidkahl @Shpigford ❤️

@adamwathan You and @r00k briefly mentioned how Substack only offers subscription for their newsletters.

@nathanbarry's has a "secret newsletter about money” where he charges a one-time fee. 👍

http://nathan.ck.page/products/money

@benediktdeicke @userlist @github That's a big deal! 🙌

@yongfook Well done! 🙌

@scott_bair Haha. We haven't even put up the hair light yet!

@taylormaguire @theKevinShen Haha. I’ve never used it as a putting green but I could!

@alexjpanagis Ecamm Live

@takeitev That’s the Solid State Logic SSL2

@takeitev That’s the Blue Compass, but I’m going to be trying the new Elgato Wave boom arm soon.

@darentsmith @theKevinShen Love it! 😍

@ianlandsman I think it won’t affect you (or me) because we’re owners of small companies. We’ll likely be fine.

But it’s folks who work for massive corporations who should be concerned.

Machines have replaced humans before (automotive manufacturing).

The overall trend for employment has been negative:

“Adding one more robot in a commuting zone reduces employment by six workers in that area.”

@askhalid @arshapiro90 @jake_k @verge Nice! 🙌

@gpickin @TransistorFM Fixed

@gpickin @TransistorFM Oops! Looks like that page broke.

I'll fix it.

@asmartbear This was so good. 🎯

@phuctm97 Sending you lots of ❤️ and 💪.

If there’s anything I can do to help, let me know.

@TheOmarZenhom @TransistorFM Thanks!

@typeoneerror YESSSSSSS

Welcome to the team! 🇨🇦🍁🥞

@CasJam It definitely feels more like Telegram (but with threads) than a "Twitter replacement."

It's definitely snappy. Pretty simple right now. The fact that it's iOS only is somewhat limiting.

@aeolianeth It's funny; just so used to Dropbox now! Doesn't feel worth it to switch.

@5harath @TransistorFM Nice!! 🤩

@noahwbragg @Dropbox @googlesheets @googlephotos @googlecalendar @WyzeCam @Apple Why do you use both Amazon and Google for photos?

@valsopi Yes, this pricing structure makes more sense. 👍

@janostlund @SilverStarMR We get pretty good snowfall!

Silverstar, BC is my local mountain (7 metres or 23 feet of annual snowfall)

Revelstoke, BC is 1.5 hours away (~20 feet annual snowfall)

@abigailotwell Happy Easter! 🐣

Tweets, FB posts, TikTok are designed to evoke emotions and reactions from us.

Nuance is boring. Having a genuine, deep, contextual understanding on a topic is difficult (and often, boring).

It’s easier for our brains to reflexively react, than to really ponder a topic.

It’s…

@CasJam I enjoyed it (music and movie) too. 👍

@typeoneerror Yes!! Congrats! 🎉

@coreyhainesco Listening to this now!

Hope you two come back some day. 🙏

@nbashaw I’m there:

@mijustin@mastodon.social" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://elk.zone/m.webtoo.ls/@mijustin@mastodon.social

@ianlandsman Tumblr? Is that you?

@benediktdeicke @userlist Looks great!

@LeviNunnink Thank you.

@djrosent @AcquiredFM 👀 wait... is this NINTENDO PART II? 🤞

@iroughol https://twitter.com/ianlandsman/status/1642964369519550479

@driesvints @FullStackEU Can't wait to hang out again, Dries!

@arvidkahl We should talk about the abundance mindset sometime on your podcast. 👍

@drewclemcr8 I explore that idea here:
