  • Podcast topics are selected with the help of AI, based on Google and social media trends, and then the team may launch five different versions of the show with different titles to see what performs the best. The podcasts are often titled after simple SEO search terms, such as Whales, so that they’re discoverable. The shows that do stick can then be replicated and scaled.

    “We might make a pollen podcast that maybe only 50 people listen to, but I’m already at unit profitability on that, and so then maybe I can make 500 pollen report podcasts,” Wright said.

    This is the dumbest shit i have ever heard. And will just mean an unending noise of fake poscasts all on single topics of the minute that provide nothing of real value.
    Yup i am never wanted podcasts and im staying far away from most the Internet these days. Its dead and artificially reanimated.









  • Yes.

    The rich used to take the same transport as the rest of us. They could be in a separate car on the train but they were still attached. Then they got automobiles and could drive on their own and we built highways to connect their favorite places. But can only get so far and planes were invented. Now they are stuck with the poors again but up in first class.

    Now they have private jets and all the roads full of the regular people, the trains and the planes. They remote in or call in from their cellphone instead of being in the actual office.

    The wealthy dont live like the rest of us anymore. And their social group is much more carefully curated to not let us in. They dont want to know regular people.


  • Oh, actually yeah. Markets rarely even respond to consumer seasonal spending these days anyways until it’s beyond a problem. But that usual pullback is probably entirely based on that holiday bump looking better after and the spending loss on marketing looking bad right before.
    I wonder if the history of recessions kicking off then in Sept is the predictions in sales being lower and people realizing they won’t get their good looking Q4.
    They freak out pull their money and basically a bank run of our wealthiest.



  • I mean funny enough there is stastical proof that shows that massive pullbacks usually occur around September and both the great depression and the 2008 great recession, while technically having started earlier, fully exploded in September.

    I think its probably the sudden rise in costs of kids going back to school and people feeling less summer happy/free-spending but yeah, could be the beginning of the plunge or just a normal fall retraction.


  • I mean thats basically why it was the biggest show in the world in the movie.

    Everyone idealizes what it must be like to be so pure and safe from decisions. Not realizing that curiosity and a desire to be free to choose who we are is more inherent to who we are than our exhaustion at complications of life.

    So people watch, to pretend to be simple.





  • I had that happen after I told the IT manager who always showed up drunk that his flash drives weren’t working because he couldn’t expect to buy an 8 pack of 1TB flash drives of amazon for $30 and that he was at worst handing out viruses.

    I also told the interns to demand full time positions for doing all the work and not be taken advantage of so that didn’t help with the HR director.
