What happens when you encounter something so unknowable, that you forget to include it in the podcast episode that you did on that very subject? Well, you publish a Bonus Episode!
And you can find it right here: https://www.implausipod.com/1935232/episodes/15791135-icebreaker-002-excession
I was reviewing the episode thanks to an email from a listener, and found that I managed to skip over a chunk of the explanation of main idea of the episode.
Whoops!
Seeing as the podcast is available on YouTube, it seemed logical to mirror that content on Peertube as well. PeerTube is a video player that supports the ActivityPub protocol that powers the Fediverse, that we’ve talked about in various podcasts and blog posts before. Using the PeerTube also lets us use the POSsE (Post Once, Syndicate Everywhere) philosophy for content creation that we’ve mentioned before too, so if YouTube or other platforms become inhospitable, it is still possible to keep one’s stuff and move.
The ImplausiPod on PeerTube can be found here. We’ll also upload AppendixW videos to a separate channel as those become available. And as we create more general videos, we have a home for those too.
With Google shifting its podcasts from Google Podcasts (which is now shut down) over to YouTube, I’ve had to take some time and make sure we were up-to-date on the old episodes as I was shifting them over.
You can find the channel here under the podcasts tab: Implausipod on YouTube. I’ll update that in a few days.
As of 2024-07-19, I’m waiting to post the next episode (34!) before making this one fully live, so there is some new content with it. More to come!
Uploaded about 2 hours worth of transcripts to the podcast today. Even with a dictations program, it still takes a bit of time for review and correction.
With those three episodes done (22, 23, and 24) that gets the podcast back to being fully transcribed. With the recently announced changed to Apple Podcasts, with the automatic transcription happening, I wanted to get ahead of it and make sure our text is included with every episode.
I’m not going to fill the main channel of the blog with the back transcripts, but will note they should be under the show-specific pages on the site here.
Allons-y!
…Videography, photo editing, video editing, graphic design, layout, audio recording, mixing, music production, composition, voice acting, research, data science, editing, writing, social media management, IT… something or other, promotion?
It feels like there is more.
These are all things I’ve started learning, in some way or fashion, in the last few years. (Well, the research, writing, and editing I mostly had down.)
There’s a lot that goes into the production of even a little website and/or blog and/or YouTube channel like this one. And I like it, don’t get me wrong; I’m learning new things daily, and trying on making everything a little bit better than the last time.
Case in point: today’s project was developing a logo for the Appendix W episodes of the Podcast, or for using if we separate that from the main channel.
Not bad, doesn’t use any copyrighted material. Just enough to look like something at a distance, if you see it on the phone.
Now I need to do that for the other episode series, with a reasonably consistent trade dress. I kinda like that purple bar at the top. It matches with the old machine generate swatch I use for the podcast.
Next up is a landing page for the site based on some photographs taken last year.
(Hence the title for this post.)
I’m just barely getting started with digital photography, and editing, and all that goes with it, but I want this page to be more visually appealing. Perhaps something like this to arrive to:
