Is there something like Netflix Party, but for podcasts? I want to listen to a show with someone virtually.

At 5:30 tonight in Seattle, @akasomeguy and I will be reading from our forthcoming books at MadArt Studio. Thank you @Image_Journal and @eerdmansbooks for having us! #AWP23: Come hear some of LESSONS AND CAROLS! (Check the images for a few blurbs + a couple grafs from the book.)

The gov't doesn’t maintain a comprehensive public database of the mandatory financial disclosures of senior executive-branch officials. So, @WSJ built its own. For months, we pored over 31k filings from 12k senior officials across 50 federal agencies. Here’s what we found.

Someone needs to hire @JohnWest to do this for all podcasts

I've written before about the way I've been tagging all the books I read as I read them. Well, I added another couple books, and I generated this network graph. Then, I annotated it. The exercise taught me that (1) good tags are invaluable and (2) I read a lot of rom-coms.

Listen to this ICYMI episode from @Slate to get more on why Serial didn’t free #AdnanSyed and what I think the @nytimes should add to those original @serial episodes. @SlatePodcasts podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Hey execs wanna know how to make hits? Make GOOD things, not garbage. Give new people support and time and MONEY to do that. Spread the wealth don’t just allocate it to the already wealthy. Stop worshipping business culture. Don’t worry about creators’ social media reach – at Los Angeles, CA

This piece basically asks "what happens when podcasting stops producing [blockbuster shows everyone talks about]?" and also, has it stopped? Here's a thread with my thoughts. 1/ vulture.com/2022/09/podcasti…

Also, I hate this opening line: "One Monday this September, a judge in Baltimore reminded earbud-owning citizens that podcasting was once powerful." This is a real "podcasting peaked with Serial" line, and I don't think that's what this piece is saying. 9/9

One more thing: the word that’s missing from this piece is “American.” Is there any mention of podcasting outside the US? 10/10(?)

"Maybe it’s not so bad to settle for art house: a smaller domain within the industry for fresh ideas, new talent, and actual podcasts as podcasts." Does anyone actually care about the next "blockbuster" podcast other than industry execs trying to ruin the space?

Podcasting Is Just Radio Now

It’s been ages since the last blockbuster narrative show. What does that mean for the medium as an art form?

The most interesting question here, IMO, is in paragraph 4: "What does it mean for podcasting as an art form if it rarely inspires widespread critical discussion?" My answer: We need more critical discussion (and that'll probably make more blockbusters happen). 2/
