I had fun interacting with NotebookLM - mostly for self-educational purposes. I think this tool can help by bringing an additional perspective over a textual content. It ties to what RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) can do to content generation in another modality. In this case, text is used to augment the generation of a podcast episode.
