New Podcast Applications

Martin: 00:00:10

Welcome to Tea Party Media, I am Martin Lindiscog.

Martin: 00:00:16

Today I will talk about new podcast apps applications and I will do a quick review view

Martin: 00:00:26

of 15 different application and apps for podcasting and podcasters and podcast

Martin: 00:00:35

listeners especially that's linked to this value for value model.

Martin: 00:00:43

That's one of the namespace tags in the RSS feed to extend to enhance and protect the RSS

Martin: 00:00:55

feed.

Martin: 00:00:56

And I will also talk about in a future

Martin: 00:00:58

episodes of the big players out there like Apple, Podcasts, Spotify and Google and others

Martin: 00:01:09

and comment on the situation today's situation and what could happen in the future.

Martin: 00:01:14

So go to new podcastappscom and check out a new podcast app.

Martin: 00:01:23

So I'll take a sip of tea here.

Martin: 00:01:27

Cheers.

Martin: 00:01:28

Today I'm drinking PD tips in a tea bag and have some brown sugar, muscavado sugar in the

Martin: 00:01:36

cup here to get going.

Martin: 00:01:39

And I have a notebook that I will read from so

Martin: 00:01:43

bear with me if sound looking and talking at the same time.

Martin: 00:01:47

And I have a note card from a model 19 1727 like a message note card with the 15

Martin: 00:01:57

applications name here so I could remember them.

Martin: 00:02:00

So I've got to rattle through them here first.

Martin: 00:02:04

It's breeze Fountain Customatic Hypercatcher

Martin: 00:02:11

Pod Verse podcast guru player Pod Vizzy Ivy anytime player curecaster Pod friend pocket

Martin: 00:02:24

casts Albi and Kon Shacks So I'll start out here with Breeze that I found on my iPhone

Martin: 00:02:35

sixs plus.

Martin: 00:02:36

That was the first one that I think I

Martin: 00:02:39

downloaded.

Martin: 00:02:40

And they take about, like, 179 Megabyte

Martin: 00:02:47

Storage.

Martin: 00:02:48

And I have an old phone, as you know.

Martin: 00:02:50

So I'm looking at how it will keep up with the space here.

Martin: 00:02:54

And also I'm doing this test flights, I'm testing new features and so on.

Martin: 00:02:59

So I mean that program and back in the day it was I haven't used it so much but for now that

Martin: 00:03:07

you could use it.

Martin: 00:03:08

In this transferring bitcoin to different

Martin: 00:03:13

places and get ad topping up your wallet and moving it from one place to another is

Martin: 00:03:20

convenient and it could be also safe and to have it there.

Martin: 00:03:23

But before it got very hot and warm when I used it as a podcast player and also

Martin: 00:03:29

refreshing all the time.

Martin: 00:03:32

But now it seems to be working in a good way

Martin: 00:03:35

so I will use Breeze more and it's also something called like a POS terminal that you

Martin: 00:03:42

could with payment and also the different apps in the application.

Martin: 00:03:52

So to something called fold.

Martin: 00:03:54

I would be happy to start testing that out but

Martin: 00:03:57

I think it's only available in North America you get like a cash back or like a loyalty

Martin: 00:04:04

program when you pay when you get it back in bitcoin if I understand it right.

Martin: 00:04:08

And now I scratch with my cap here and what's more in it like Geyser found it's a company

Martin: 00:04:17

that I want to look into more and reach out to them and see if I could be on the show also

Martin: 00:04:22

talking about how you could do like a crowdfunding campaign and get support and

Martin: 00:04:28

donations in Bitcoin.

Martin: 00:04:30

So the next one is now in theory with the

Martin: 00:04:34

notebook it's Fountain and that is what I have been using most up till now.

Martin: 00:04:41

And before it took some time to do like a loading, it took time with that and also to

Martin: 00:04:50

search and so on.

Martin: 00:04:51

Now, I have cleaned up a bit with auto

Martin: 00:04:56

download, so it's not so much in the pipeline and also unfollowed some podcasts.

Martin: 00:05:02

And I will start to follow again back when I see that app is working quicker as before.

Martin: 00:05:09

And I have around 19,000 stats on it and I'm also on the test flight and it takes how much

Martin: 00:05:18

is it space right now? It was like a couple of gigabytes.

Martin: 00:05:25

So that's one thing that I want to decrease and I think it's like one now or something

Martin: 00:05:30

like that but it's still one of the applications that take most space on my phone.

Martin: 00:05:37

What they have done now new things is like activity feed.

Martin: 00:05:41

It's obvious thing to checking out what's new, what's going on, people are commenting on

Martin: 00:05:47

different episodes, doing clips, giving sets on the comments and so on.

Martin: 00:05:53

And then you have the discovery new Lightning podcasts listing and what more the categories

Martin: 00:06:00

could be interesting to explore more.

Martin: 00:06:02

I have several categories there and then you

Martin: 00:06:07

have the wallet, you click on the wallet with the Lightning symbol and I have earned there

Martin: 00:06:14

and also latest days every week like about 1000 satouches and also about the same that I

Martin: 00:06:26

have supported.

Martin: 00:06:27

So I earned about the same that I supported

Martin: 00:06:30

for now.

Martin: 00:06:31

I haven't been so active with this app now but

Martin: 00:06:34

I will start using it again.

Martin: 00:06:36

And there you have rewards, you have streams,

Martin: 00:06:39

you have promotions, referrals boost and like so it's lots of things going on there now I

Martin: 00:06:45

could check on the income tab there and shout out and thanks to Chad F user profile on

Martin: 00:06:54

Spotify.

Martin: 00:06:55

I said now on fountain shad f. And then I also

Martin: 00:07:01

saw Tea Party media house.

Martin: 00:07:03

So thanks for that supporting this podcast and

Martin: 00:07:06

I saw some mere mortals supporting streaming by listening with Cyclophoxol and also making

Martin: 00:07:15

boost to Gram and Digital Telegram and a comment with the latest episode about Liberal

Martin: 00:07:21

Ellis.

Martin: 00:07:22

And I have like four I'm following 40 and 151

Martin: 00:07:26

followers and I have made and created 28 clips.

Martin: 00:07:32

And then you see this as I said again, hot on Fountain and you could see the Bowler Boosts

Martin: 00:07:38

and that on the Podcasting 2.0 show.

Martin: 00:07:43

I think if it's like 100,000 or 200,000 they

Martin: 00:07:46

call it a Bowler Boost and have a special sound effect for that.

Martin: 00:07:50

I don't know if it's bowling or what's the name is coming from the word but I thought it

Martin: 00:07:57

started on a fountain at 10,000 Satushes and that's how much is that?

Martin: 00:08:04

We check is it like is it $2 or something like that.

Martin: 00:08:08

I will include Currency World in the show notes and then you could check what's the

Martin: 00:08:18

Bitcoin level there and the price for Bitcoin on a daily basis if you want.

Martin: 00:08:23

So I will take another CPT here.

Martin: 00:08:27

See here, this could take some time, it's

Martin: 00:08:30

almost ten minutes here, nine minutes and then Customatic and where it's saying that I have

Martin: 00:08:39

sufficient funds, not enough funds, so I have to top it up.

Martin: 00:08:43

And this is the thing, if you have several apps and you want to use then you have to have

Martin: 00:08:50

funds on different places and could you have a central place that you could go?

Martin: 00:08:55

Maybe that's the brief thing to do.

Martin: 00:08:57

And I will talk with the others here at vendor

Martin: 00:08:59

also and what they have is a neat feature called a leveler of auto and boost like auto

Martin: 00:09:09

fix.

Martin: 00:09:10

So depending on the volume, if you talk like

Martin: 00:09:14

me pretty low on the same level, you could boost that.

Martin: 00:09:19

And also if you are doing it like this, like the gap pause.

Martin: 00:09:27

So there we have this gap separate.

Martin: 00:09:31

So it's so called saving you time and taking

Martin: 00:09:34

that pause and silence.

Martin: 00:09:37

And that seems to be similar to Overcast

Martin: 00:09:40

features that I will talk about that in another episode.

Martin: 00:09:46

Premium wear on Overcast and has that Marko that feature about boosting your sound level

Martin: 00:09:54

and also speeding up your voice in like two up to two times the speed.

Martin: 00:10:01

But still it's sounds that you could listen to it and cast a magic is taking like 1718

Martin: 00:10:08

megabits of space and more.

Martin: 00:10:11

What more there is hypercatcher.

Martin: 00:10:15

They have some interesting things that you could listen to newsletters and get like an

Martin: 00:10:20

email from them and then subscribe to newsletters and listen to it.

Martin: 00:10:24

So I will check that out.

Martin: 00:10:26

The version is 2.228 and it seems to be one

Martin: 00:10:30

year ago and the app developer where I think he is blogging theirs in 2021 or maybe a bit

Martin: 00:10:40

later but I haven't seen any updates lately.

Martin: 00:10:44

So that's the status of that app if it's still

Martin: 00:10:47

active or what's going on.

Martin: 00:10:50

Another sip of tea here.

Martin: 00:10:52

Cheers.

Martin: 00:10:52

And then we come to my new favorite Pod verse

Martin: 00:10:57

and I will publish the next episode will be a conversation with Mitch D. Downey of podverse.

Martin: 00:11:05

So the live item tag so when it's going live you get a notification in the app.

Martin: 00:11:12

So when you could start listening when we're doing the live streaming and send boostograms

Martin: 00:11:18

in real time, commenting on the content there and the conversations and I have a membership

Martin: 00:11:25

there like a premium.

Martin: 00:11:28

So I think it's 100 or 200 Swedish crowns per

Martin: 00:11:32

month, not per month, per year.

Martin: 00:11:34

And Mitch is commenting on that, talking about

Martin: 00:11:38

that in the conversation that we have there.

Martin: 00:11:44

You have Fountain, they have also premium.

Martin: 00:11:47

I am paying like I think it's 30 Swedish crowns per month in order to support their

Martin: 00:11:52

work and development and so on.

Martin: 00:11:55

And I'm also in this test flight program and

Martin: 00:11:59

it takes about right now, 17.6 megabytes.

Martin: 00:12:04

I like how to say the UX and the interface and

Martin: 00:12:10

how now you could stream sets and doing boost the grams and having this lit and live item

Martin: 00:12:17

tag so you could listen to podcast when you are going live.

Martin: 00:12:21

So more of that when you listen to our conversation and then I will do a follow up

Martin: 00:12:29

also with generally with podcasting apps or podcast in English.

Martin: 00:12:36

I've only listened and start listening.

Martin: 00:12:38

So then you could start creating new patterns

Martin: 00:12:41

with different things.

Martin: 00:12:42

So if you have any input on that, how you

Martin: 00:12:44

listen to podcast, what kind of features do you like and et cetera and so on.

Martin: 00:12:51

Because this is now with Live, for example, that you listen not only when you have time or

Martin: 00:12:58

when you're doing errands or doing other things.

Martin: 00:13:00

Now you want to be in interactions, so to speak, and it's going live in real time and

Martin: 00:13:07

being in terms of conversation and be like a coup producer.

Martin: 00:13:11

So that's an interesting how and I've done another episode of that like a hybrid of

Martin: 00:13:17

fusion of radio and podcasting how it's going into one in you could say and then we come to

Martin: 00:13:27

podcast guru.

Martin: 00:13:30

I like that very much because it's very clean,

Martin: 00:13:34

it's UX, it's loading fast, what I could see.

Martin: 00:13:38

And they have this integration with Pod Chaser

Martin: 00:13:43

so you could have in app reviews and also they have podcast index that you could search for

Martin: 00:13:50

podcast with search and discovery on region so you could pick a different country where that

Martin: 00:13:57

could be interesting.

Martin: 00:13:59

And I will upgrade to become a very important

Martin: 00:14:01

person, so to speak, VIP user and that's 169 Swedish crowns per year.

Martin: 00:14:10

And they have also this Podping notification so that's one of the great namespace tags but

Martin: 00:14:21

instead who said that? Think about Apple Podcast with all the

Martin: 00:14:25

servers, if they have to check 4 million Podcasts out there and maybe like 500,000

Martin: 00:14:30

active and they say they have like 2.5 million or whatever.

Martin: 00:14:34

3 million, maybe, if I have to.

Martin: 00:14:37

Check the episodes or the podcast every time

Martin: 00:14:40

like every minute or every hour or whenever or how many times per day if they are active

Martin: 00:14:45

instead of using this Pod Ping how that could save time and energy and whatnot?

Martin: 00:14:53

So that's something to think about that Pod Ping and then play a Pod.

Martin: 00:14:59

It's very interesting, I like the design of it.

Martin: 00:15:02

It's like this old cassette player.

Martin: 00:15:06

I remember was it the Pesh mode that had it on

Martin: 00:15:09

stage like this tape that was running.

Martin: 00:15:13

So they have podcasts and news.

Martin: 00:15:17

You could search for news podcasts and mainstream media outlets having their own

Martin: 00:15:23

podcasts so that could be interesting.

Martin: 00:15:25

And also audio and video, they have sections

Martin: 00:15:28

for that.

Martin: 00:15:30

And you could do BOOKMARKS also with pauses or

Martin: 00:15:34

something that you want to remember in the tape.

Martin: 00:15:37

And it takes about 24 megabytes.

Martin: 00:15:42

And I like, again, as I said, the slogan.

Martin: 00:15:46

Where the high fee, high fidelity audio so going on here.

Martin: 00:15:53

We have this and they mostly active on the web, I think.

Martin: 00:15:59

Nick Fair I want to have them on the show.

Martin: 00:16:02

Also.

Martin: 00:16:04

First when I did the app where it was rolling and scrolling and then it worked, but he

Martin: 00:16:11

talked about that.

Martin: 00:16:12

He has this studio that you could do chapters,

Martin: 00:16:15

images, adding images.

Martin: 00:16:17

You can have shareable links into the app when

Martin: 00:16:22

you're listening and also buying things.

Martin: 00:16:24

So it's all about there when visual things to

Martin: 00:16:29

add images to chapters, different sections of your episode, generating show notes and so on.

Martin: 00:16:37

So this studio I will come back to and see if I have already an account there or creating

Martin: 00:16:46

one and then talk to Nick and then it's Ivy Search and they're also on the web protector

Martin: 00:16:55

there.

Martin: 00:16:55

So you could search for different keywords

Martin: 00:16:57

topics, podcast names, et cetera, and you could look up guests, different podcasts, as I

Martin: 00:17:06

said, topics and tags, keywords, keywords.

Martin: 00:17:12

And it takes like 27.9 megabyte and again,

Martin: 00:17:18

it's mainly on the website there.

Martin: 00:17:20

And here is a tip to Dave Jones that said when

Martin: 00:17:24

I did a screenshot of my new apps, I wonder if I have somebody that app I should add or

Martin: 00:17:32

something I missed.

Martin: 00:17:33

And then he recommended me.

Martin: 00:17:34

Anytime, player.

Martin: 00:17:37

So it's made by developer called Ben Hills and

Martin: 00:17:42

it takes right now 40.4 megabytes and it was updated four months ago and it seems to be a

Martin: 00:17:50

very clean interface and easy to use app and then I will do some honorable mentions, you

Martin: 00:17:58

could say and that's starting out with Curecasters that's on the web, I know mainly I

Martin: 00:18:06

don't think I have an app yet and they have also this lit live item tag when you are going

Martin: 00:18:14

live and also the Sickler Fox we became featured because I sent a small donation and

Martin: 00:18:21

boost to grab to them.

Martin: 00:18:23

So he thanks for that and adding us to that.

Martin: 00:18:26

What I have a commentary is that this dark mode or dark background black and on text on

Martin: 00:18:31

white could be a bit maybe hard to accessibility and see that maybe if you could

Martin: 00:18:37

switch that or you could have a mode with white background and black text or dark text

Martin: 00:18:43

could be good.

Martin: 00:18:44

And as I said again, the web is the main thing

Martin: 00:18:47

there.

Martin: 00:18:49

And I think they have something.

Martin: 00:18:51

Is it audio or audiobooks or they have something more than podcast or ebooks.

Martin: 00:18:59

I don't know, but they have a different category or search thing.

Martin: 00:19:02

They're also on Curecaster, so I will come back to that again.

Martin: 00:19:07

And then the namesake or numene, as you say in swedish Martin in Denmark, Pod friend and I

Martin: 00:19:17

think he's working on something here.

Martin: 00:19:19

I don't think he has updated player for some

Martin: 00:19:23

time but he says in the Master Dan group there on Podcast Index social that he's working on

Martin: 00:19:29

things there.

Martin: 00:19:30

So that's something to check out.

Martin: 00:19:32

Also Pod friendliest podcast players that slogan is and then pocket Casts and it's owned

Martin: 00:19:43

by Matt Millennbags Automatic and they say that they are for this open transparent RSS

Martin: 00:19:52

feed and want to protect RSS.

Martin: 00:19:55

So that will be interesting to see how that

Martin: 00:19:57

could play out in the future.

Martin: 00:20:01

And it takes like 67.3 megabytes space there.

Martin: 00:20:06

I heard back in midday it was very popular by users and it's still around.

Martin: 00:20:11

And now we also have this Pocket Cast plus so you could have more features there and then

Martin: 00:20:22

Get Lb.com and that's more it's not a podcast play but with Albi they have done it very

Martin: 00:20:30

convenient how you could top up your wallet with Satoshi so you could then send donations

Martin: 00:20:37

and support to fellow podcasters.

Martin: 00:20:40

And they have also a dashboard that you could

Martin: 00:20:43

see the donations, the boost, the grams and how you are streaming Satoshi's to podcasters

Martin: 00:20:52

and it's value for value and name tag.

Martin: 00:20:57

So they have done a great work on that.

Martin: 00:21:00

And you also have your own, you could say, profile page when users could send you support

Martin: 00:21:07

and donations similar to like paypalme site for example, page.

Martin: 00:21:13

But I have PayPal.

Martin: 00:21:15

Melindascog when you have your username, I

Martin: 00:21:20

have Lyseum on Getalby, so it's Getalby.com is it P?

Martin: 00:21:28

I think it is there.

Martin: 00:21:32

You could then send Satoshi directly to my

Martin: 00:21:36

wallet there so you have it.

Martin: 00:21:40

And the last one is Konshak and it's similar

Martin: 00:21:43

to this Get LB Saturn dashboard that they have.

Martin: 00:21:48

And I've been talking with him on Twitter and getting the help to do this split for like

Martin: 00:21:56

Mitch.

Martin: 00:21:57

I want to send him split to divide it.

Martin: 00:22:00

So every Satoshi is every support or stream booster.

Martin: 00:22:04

I'm coming to that episode, I want to give him 50% of it or half of it, what I get.

Martin: 00:22:10

But he has this Get ALB address, lightning address.

Martin: 00:22:14

So I have to figure out how to get him into the split.

Martin: 00:22:18

Because when I started and hooked up my podcast up to this value for value model, I

Martin: 00:22:26

used first something called Stream Satoshi or Satushi Stream.

Martin: 00:22:31

And I had to go through like a Telegram group and adding something code, et cetera.

Martin: 00:22:37

And then Fountain came up about entering the scene.

Martin: 00:22:43

So I shifted my hook up, you could say, or being doing this Lightning thing that's now in

Martin: 00:22:52

Fountain.

Martin: 00:22:54

So that's the question.

Martin: 00:22:56

How you do when you add to a split.

Martin: 00:22:59

I think it will be easier in the future, but

Martin: 00:23:02

right now you have to do certain steps and getting around to get to it, but it will work

Martin: 00:23:08

out in the near future.

Martin: 00:23:10

So again, that's for now.

Martin: 00:23:15

I've been bubbling now doing a short review of what I'm having on my phone and also what I'm

Martin: 00:23:21

using on the web.

Martin: 00:23:23

And what are you using, which app do you use

Martin: 00:23:26

or do you use several apps, new podcast apps and again, your thoughts and comments on about

Martin: 00:23:32

the big players, where even news have happened recently with Google doing things, changing

Martin: 00:23:38

things, mixing things up.

Martin: 00:23:40

And then you wonder what Spotify is doing with

Martin: 00:23:43

the RSS and then Apple podcasters, what's going on there?

Martin: 00:23:50

And then also other apps that I'm using, as I said, like over cost.

Martin: 00:23:56

I know that Marcos is part of a Podcasting 2.0 initiative, so that's great to see.
