Episode notes
Design Video Shows To Work As Podcasts
- Make video-first shows still consumable as audio by avoiding visual-only jokes.
- Design segments and pacing so listeners can follow without watching the YouTube feed.
Promote Video With Podcast Accessibility
- Promote the medium where visuals add value but offer the audio as a fallback for commuters and listeners.
- Use co-hosts with complementary skills (e.g., video-savvy) to expand format options.
Punk And Sports Share Deeper Connections
- Punk and sports intersect more than expected through shared culture and values.
- Playing sports and performing music both require entering a mental state you can't access until you do it.
