Episode notes
Podcasting's Intimacy
- Podcasting is an intimate medium because you're directly speaking to the listener.
- This intimacy builds trust and connection unlike any other medium.
Podcasting's Paradox
- Podcasting has a unique paradox: massive VC-funded platforms coexist with democratized content creation.
- This makes it challenging to monetize premium tools, as free or cheap alternatives are readily available.

- This tool should analyze audio for vibe, tone, and speaking style, enabling better discovery beyond summaries and transcripts.
