IS THIS YOUR PODCAST? Do you receive "anonymous" voicemails and rerecord them in order to keep a caller's anonymity? 🎤

If not, do you know of podcasts that do this?

Worth a watch for people using Audacity! 🎤

There's A LOT happening in media now, so I've put together some things for you to consider when producing and publishing your podcast. Coming Monday ... 🎤

I've talked about this A LOT, but it's worth mentioning again that a lot of the Shure mics on eBay are fake.

Look for price that's "too good to be true" and packaging photos/mics that look like Shure, but have the name blocked out.

And read reviews!! 🎤

Nice mix!

I've got a podcasting-related story about Chicago house music in a book I'm working on. And I'll get it to you someday ... after I finish the other book I'm working on. ;)

A good question! This was traffic to social media. Realized after I'd posted it that I didn't mention that.

David Hooper @davidhooper.bsky.social · Aug 31

Nothing weird about this at all.

RFK Jr. says you shouldn’t get a Covid vaccine. All doctors and research results say you should. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Did they say what kind of PEDs RFK Jr is using? May need a little help ...

The only surprise here is that FOX admitted it.

It is for people who only want to see the number of steps promised in the headline.

Just a funny coincidence. Before the current streets, the area was Native American (“Indian nations”) hunting grounds and travel routes.

I'd love for some sandhogs to chime in on this. My guess is that it would cost a fortune, assuming it could be done at all.

Regardless, do we really need it?

It's not every day — and not many podcasts — that get named to TIME's 100 Best Podcasts of All Time. But there it is for WPLN's The Promise!

Aptly described as a series that examines what happens in Nashville when "a great idea meets reality."

Well deserved! We're lucky to have a station like WPLN here.
