This week on the podcast, the one and only Matthew Dons joins me to talk about cancer and lessons learned over 5 years since his initial diagnosis. Check out his new course makingcancerhistory.jp citizenreporter.org/2022/12/ctrp55…

Noticed Spotify rebranded Anchor as Spotify for Podcasters or "Podcasters" as an app name. It's interesting how confident they've become that they know what producers want; minimal options, everything drag and drop and mobile.

Spotify, like so many popular tools, is betting that users don't want to know how things work and don't like having options or control over small details of their productions. I'm obviously a dinosaur in podcasting; I insist on having control over small details.

Any of my friends out there using Anchor aka Spotify for Podcasters? Just curious. I can usually tell by listening, the clunky, segment based structure is easy to hear.

A few times a year I try to subscribe to different podcasts on a wide range of topics. Last month I started with 📼 Vintage Video Podcast 📼 and I've grown to really enjoy it. If you enjoy 80's movies (as I do) and have a strange/sick wish to relive them, this is a really fun way.

We were there when social media was born and we're still here trying to understand where it is going. The podcast is back with Janelle Ward on "The Shifting Sands of Social Media" citizenreporter.org/2023/04/janell…

Teixeira; It's pronounced 'Tay Shea Rah' America. It's a super common Portuguese-American last name and it hurts my ears with the silly hard X like Texas.

I just found my @DHLNL package containing my child's new passport and birth documents in the middle of the street one block from my house. It had been run over many times. Thankfully i spotted it and it's contents are flat paper anyway ✅

So the supremes say no to AA for uni admissions. Schools could now focus on attracting and accepting people from low-income families. Until scotus bans that too.

Dear Hulu and Disney+, Your forms need updating. I'm cancelling bc I support the #WGAstrike and was shocked today to hear that streaming execs think the best way at a solution is to starve the strikers through OCT. I'm sorry ur mommas didn't raise you better. #WGAstrong

Was recently asked how much a local (NL based) podcast studio/service costs. Strangely, other than my own former freelance costs I actually didn't know what these places charge.

If only Atlanta's professional baseball team would wake up and do the same. Also stop with the horrible "tomahawk chop" espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…
