◼   ► have your questions repaired you said [TS]

◼   ► and I said to come up with one that you [TS]

◼   ► the show and then I will flub it by [TS]

◼   ► giving a lame answer and then that will [TS]

◼   ► be it so do you thinks I'm like a plan [TS]

◼   ► that sounds like a good plan i remember [TS]

◼   ► the last time that i was permitted to [TS]

◼   ► ascii questions was for an episode of [TS]

◼   ► the pipeline where i interviewed you in [TS]

◼   ► a way that that show is a little bit [TS]

◼   ► that episode was a little bit like the [TS]

◼   ► predecessor to this whole this whole [TS]

◼   ► show that plus the gabe newell [TS]

◼   ► conversation episode you were on I was [TS]

◼   ► like come on do a show there you go and [TS]

◼   ► then that was this so there you my [TS]

◼   ► question is my questions by the way just [TS]

◼   ► a little teaser mm-hmm aren't gonna have [TS]

◼   ► nothing to do with technology nothing to [TS]

◼   ► do with your mac pro or the amount of [TS]

◼   ► RAM in it or tonight is or anything like [TS]

◼   ► that that you're all personal there you [TS]

◼   ► go what makes siracusa tick all right so [TS]

◼   ► let us start for the first time for the [TS]

◼   ► last time with follow up last episode I [TS]

◼   ► discussed the wii u that you were so [TS]

◼   ► kind to send me that we've been playing [TS]

◼   ► that my son has been playing non-stop [TS]

◼   ► since they came here and I said that [TS]

◼   ► once I got it and transferred my stuff [TS]

◼   ► over to it I realized after transferring [TS]

◼   ► my stuff that I wouldn't be able to play [TS]

◼   ► mario 64 with the gamecube controller [TS]

◼   ► anymore because now mario 64 is over on [TS]

◼   ► the wii u and the wii u doesn't support [TS]

◼   ► a gamecube controller a bunch of people [TS]

◼   ► sent me the links to people modding [TS]

◼   ► controllers which is apparently a [TS]

◼   ► burgeoning field i know they sell like [TS]

◼   ► adapters and most lots of other things [TS]

◼   ► like that but some people sort of have a [TS]

◼   ► do-it-yourself type mindset well they [TS]

◼   ► will take a dremel tool to a bunch of [TS]

◼   ► controllers and try to make sort of a [TS]

◼   ► frankan controller and one popular theme [TS]

◼   ► is taking various controllers and wiring [TS]

◼   ► them up to the bottom of a wii remote [TS]

◼   ► the links i put in the show note show [TS]

◼   ► notes about this are about someone [TS]

◼   ► modding be a wee classic controller [TS]

◼   ► remember that thing it's not the Wii U [TS]

◼   ► pro yeah yeah similar yeah two analog [TS]

◼   ► sticks d-pad buttons and like little [TS]

◼   ► kind of horn type handles on it and so [TS]

◼   ► what this guy did is open that thing up [TS]

◼   ► chopped out the the printed circuit [TS]

◼   ► board part of it mm-hm and then take a [TS]

◼   ► gamecube controller and pull out its [TS]

◼   ► guts and then take the chopped up [TS]

◼   ► classic controller circuit board put it [TS]

◼   ► inside the gamecube controller and then [TS]

◼   ► a wire all of the controls on the [TS]

◼   ► gamecube controller to the printed [TS]

◼   ► circuit board actually solder it on [TS]

◼   ► there to the printed circuit board from [TS]

◼   ► the classic controller so it's basically [TS]

◼   ► a classic controller as far as the wii [TS]

◼   ► is concerned but all the controls [TS]

◼   ► instead of being hooked up to the [TS]

◼   ► thumbsticks on the classic controller [TS]

◼   ► the hooked up to the thumbsticks on on [TS]

◼   ► the gamecube controller and all the [TS]

◼   ► buttons and so on and so forth it's [TS]

◼   ► amazing that actually works but i guess [TS]

◼   ► you know it's all nintendo all on the [TS]

◼   ► family and all the buttons and switches [TS]

◼   ► and analog sticks and similar signals [TS]

◼   ► and so it ends up working of course this [TS]

◼   ► is not a it is a do-it-yourself job if [TS]

◼   ► you are very comfortable with soldering [TS]

◼   ► and it's not super precise like micro [TS]

◼   ► soldering but it's precise enough that [TS]

◼   ► lots of contacts have to be soldered [TS]

◼   ► very close to each other and you have to [TS]

◼   ► you know be careful iming it's not [TS]

◼   ► something that I would want to try [TS]

◼   ► myself but apparently people do this and [TS]

◼   ► then they sell their handiwork so this [TS]

◼   ► is a reddit thread where someone posted [TS]

◼   ► pictures and then also a link to a forum [TS]

◼   ► thread where the person shows the [TS]

◼   ► step-by-step things I tried to find this [TS]

◼   ► presses name they can only come up with [TS]

◼   ► uh or is it gum oh yeah good old gum [TS]

◼   ► oped Gummo and then i read it he's gum [TS]

◼   ► owned no and there's i also put a link [TS]

◼   ► into one of the various adapters which [TS]

◼   ► is the re the wii retro pad adapter to [TS]

◼   ► that this is another wee thing not a way [TS]

◼   ► you think but it lets you connect again [TS]

◼   ► to the bottom where we mode and then [TS]

◼   ► have another plug that into which you [TS]

◼   ► plug an adapter cable where you can have [TS]

◼   ► all sorts of control nes SNES [TS]

◼   ► playstation playstation 2 gamecube [TS]

◼   ► nintendo 64 Neo Geo CD and Sega Saturn [TS]

◼   ► all those controllers you can use making [TS]

◼   ► them look like classic controllers to [TS]

◼   ► the way I'm assuming all the same things [TS]

◼   ► either [TS]

◼   ► already work with the wii u or similar [TS]

◼   ► hacks will come out and work with wii u [TS]

◼   ► so there's hope for anybody who wants to [TS]

◼   ► play any sort of game with their console [TS]

◼   ► using a classic controller any things [TS]

◼   ► are pretty cheap tillich adapters like [TS]

◼   ► 25 bucks and the extension cables like [TS]

◼   ► 10 bucks for all of them so it's a [TS]

◼   ► market by hobbyists for obvious and also [TS]

◼   ► that some of these adapter things they [TS]

◼   ► provide like the plans for you to make [TS]

◼   ► your own so if you don't want to buy one [TS]

◼   ► from this guy and you just want to do it [TS]

◼   ► yourself you can buy all the parts [TS]

◼   ► yourself and assemble them and solder [TS]

◼   ► them together and everything pretty neat [TS]

◼   ► alright next bit of follow-up is from [TS]

◼   ► Jesse lane he was the first person to [TS]

◼   ► successfully save me from myself when it [TS]

◼   ► comes to mac address filtering on my [TS]

◼   ► wireless network I shall talked about my [TS]

◼   ► difficulties and setting up new devices [TS]

◼   ► with because I have mac address [TS]

◼   ► filtering on my home network and a lot [TS]

◼   ► of devices don't show you the mac [TS]

◼   ► address at the point where i would need [TS]

◼   ► it they just want you to get on the [TS]

◼   ► network and before you're allowed to see [TS]

◼   ► what the mac addresses which is [TS]

◼   ► frustrating so a lot of people responded [TS]

◼   ► and tweets an email saying you shouldn't [TS]

◼   ► do mac address filtering it's dumb and [TS]

◼   ► that's not it's not helpful because the [TS]

◼   ► show i explained you know you said water [TS]

◼   ► here yeah here's why I do it and then I [TS]

◼   ► said if anyone can tell me why the [TS]

◼   ► reasons that I do it don't make any [TS]

◼   ► sense by all means do so but just [TS]

◼   ► telling me it's dumb doesn't tell me [TS]

◼   ► that you know you're you know so to [TS]

◼   ► review i was saying i did the mac [TS]

◼   ► address filtering not because i thought [TS]

◼   ► it was impossible like the tiger was a [TS]

◼   ► security barrier because anybody can [TS]

◼   ► pretend to have any mac address they [TS]

◼   ► want that's simple right my idea was [TS]

◼   ► that so fine someone looks at my network [TS]

◼   ► and sees the mac addresses of some [TS]

◼   ► devices that are on it says okay i'm [TS]

◼   ► going to spoof that mac address my [TS]

◼   ► assumption was that that person would [TS]

◼   ► have a bad experience using my network [TS]

◼   ► because if he's trying to use a mac [TS]

◼   ► address that is the same as another [TS]

◼   ► device on the network the two would [TS]

◼   ► conflict with each other and it will [TS]

◼   ► make that person said and you know [TS]

◼   ► things won't work right so and people [TS]

◼   ► who didn't address that it says you [TS]

◼   ► shouldn't do mac address filtering it's [TS]

◼   ► it's pointless you shouldn't do it you [TS]

◼   ► know they never gave me a reason they [TS]

◼   ► never acknowledge that they heard what i [TS]

◼   ► was saying he said you know people can [TS]

◼   ► spoof a maggot as well yeah of course I [TS]

◼   ► said that on the show [TS]

◼   ► sometimes it just doesn't fit in 140 [TS]

◼   ► characters if it's a tweet or something [TS]

◼   ► but Jesse Lane was the first person to [TS]

◼   ► fried an actual explanation to show you [TS]

◼   ► listen to the show he said I'm a [TS]

◼   ► security professional that has done a [TS]

◼   ► fair bit of work and wireless he says he [TS]

◼   ► doesn't think mac address filtering news [TS]

◼   ► worth do anymore he confirms that yes [TS]

◼   ► even if you have a wpa2 network or [TS]

◼   ► whatever all the MAC addresses of course [TS]

◼   ► are visible because that's a layer 2 [TS]

◼   ► thing so and it's trivial to spoof MAC [TS]

◼   ► address like I said on the show which [TS]

◼   ► acknowledged and he said it's incorrect [TS]

◼   ► to assume that the person stealing your [TS]

◼   ► mac address will have a bad experience [TS]

◼   ► because the two conflicting MAC [TS]

◼   ► addresses the network what will happen [TS]

◼   ► he says is the traffic will go to the [TS]

◼   ► whichever MAC address most recently [TS]

◼   ► responded to an ARP request so the [TS]

◼   ► malicious person on the network just can [TS]

◼   ► send what he calls gratuitous arps to [TS]

◼   ► say oh I'm the one who has that IP [TS]

◼   ► address i'm a bit mac address and that [TS]

◼   ► will effectively prevent your legitimate [TS]

◼   ► house from ever getting a chance to talk [TS]

◼   ► i put a link in the show notes to arp [TS]

◼   ► address resolution protocol you can look [TS]

◼   ► up what that is but basically once [TS]

◼   ► someone gets your mac address and spoofs [TS]

◼   ► it they can very quickly flood the [TS]

◼   ► network with with gratuitous arp [TS]

◼   ► responses saying oh I'm you know I'm the [TS]

◼   ► guy with that mac address I'm over here [TS]

◼   ► and it's this IP address so just keep [TS]

◼   ► doing that and the other device since [TS]

◼   ► it's not malicious and not trying to [TS]

◼   ► steal it's you know steal an address [TS]

◼   ► will never get any more packets and [TS]

◼   ► we'll just sort of sit there and be sad [TS]

◼   ► uh so and he says okay even without [TS]

◼   ► gratuitous arp sees had to be easy to [TS]

◼   ► just watch my network and select a mac [TS]

◼   ► address of a client that's not used very [TS]

◼   ► often ah like that's that's less likely [TS]

◼   ► because most of my devices that are on [TS]

◼   ► the Wi-Fi on all the time but uh that's [TS]

◼   ► worth pointing out to and he says most [TS]

◼   ► importantly wpa2 is very strong [TS]

◼   ► encryption and he compares putting the [TS]

◼   ► mac address filtering on it's a bit like [TS]

◼   ► locking the latch hook on on a screen [TS]

◼   ► door when you have a reinforced steel [TS]

◼   ► security door right behind it so his [TS]

◼   ► advice is to just use wpa two with a [TS]

◼   ► long good password and turn off mac [TS]

◼   ► filter and that's what i did so i am now [TS]

◼   ► mac address filtering free on my home [TS]

◼   ► wireless network and the last bit of my [TS]

◼   ► defense is that this is one of those [TS]

◼   ► things where you have to reevaluate [TS]

◼   ► stuff as time going on because i put the [TS]

◼   ► mac address filtering back when I had [TS]

◼   ► you know [TS]

◼   ► WEP when when the security was a joke [TS]

◼   ► right long long ago and just never [TS]

◼   ► turned it off I just kept it on because [TS]

◼   ► through a series of apple airport uh [TS]

◼   ► wireless things that it keeps importing [TS]

◼   ► my setting and I just never turned it [TS]

◼   ► off there well you know it was a good [TS]

◼   ► thing to have on when you know the head [TS]

◼   ► web security that was easy to break was [TS]

◼   ► just one extra layer of you know one [TS]

◼   ► more hurdle for hackers to overcome not [TS]

◼   ► a particularly high hurdle but you know [TS]

◼   ► I just want to make it difficult but at [TS]

◼   ► this point it is now completely moved [TS]

◼   ► and I have turned off negative shall [TS]

◼   ► drink so thank you to Jesse lane let [TS]

◼   ► that be a lesson to anyone else out [TS]

◼   ► there who's doing that guy dress [TS]

◼   ► filtering on their network although it [TS]

◼   ► seems like I may be the only one in the [TS]

◼   ► entire world all right and the final [TS]

◼   ► piece of follow-up a lot of people in [TS]

◼   ► posting retrospectives about the show [TS]

◼   ► yeah there's been a bunch of really cool [TS]

◼   ► things going on yeah they make their own [TS]

◼   ► since there won't be another episode of [TS]

◼   ► hyper critical to listen to to get [TS]

◼   ► blog post on blog five by five that TV [TS]

◼   ► at some point but obviously you could [TS]

◼   ► intentionally not looked at any of the [TS]

◼   ► predictions I have intentionally stayed [TS]

◼   ► as far away from whatever the you know [TS]

◼   ► the predictions of this would be because [TS]

◼   ► I wanted to I wanted to you know be [TS]

◼   ► surprised as I am every week being [TS]

◼   ► surprised so no and I haven't and I've [TS]

◼   ► intentionally not thought about it at [TS]

◼   ► anything else yes this is perfect [TS]

◼   ► because you know that's how you that's [TS]

◼   ► how you ended we're gonna take a look at [TS]

◼   ► this podcast of which there have been [TS]

◼   ► 100 episodes is 98 of which were [TS]

◼   ► featuring me ah and what what's wrong [TS]

◼   ► what's wrong with this thing will you [TS]

◼   ► that is happening right now can you [TS]

◼   ► criticize this episode is that like what [TS]

◼   ► what I have to say will apply to this [TS]

◼   ► episode as well okay because what I'm [TS]

◼   ► gonna suggest and I think you know [TS]

◼   ► what's coming is that we have a [TS]

◼   ► follow-up show she criticized this [TS]

◼   ► episode I strident look I just want to [TS]

◼   ► put that out there and I mean you're [TS]

◼   ► gonna have to run with it alright so I [TS]

◼   ► got I've got a small number of items [TS]

◼   ► here and of course since I'm the one [TS]

◼   ► criticizing the show i'm also going to [TS]

◼   ► provide counterpoint because i'm also [TS]

◼   ► the one producer on the show okay [TS]

◼   ► alright so it's kind of you know it in [TS]

◼   ► arguing with myself but it's not it's [TS]

◼   ► not really like a winning or losing [TS]

◼   ► argument there are bad things about it [TS]

◼   ► and there are reasons that the bad [TS]

◼   ► things exist and so i'm going to talk [TS]

◼   ► about the bad things and what's bad [TS]

◼   ► about them and then explain why it is [TS]

◼   ► that they exist doesn't make them not [TS]

◼   ► bad it's just you know i'm i'm doing all [TS]

◼   ► sides of this right cuz you know that's [TS]

◼   ► the way it has to be all right and as [TS]

◼   ► the list is kind of sorted but not [TS]

◼   ► really like the first thing i have i [TS]

◼   ► think is the worst thing about the [TS]

◼   ► podcast and then i'll get a little bit [TS]

◼   ► better and i just kind of stopped like [TS]

◼   ► there are many more things wrong with [TS]

◼   ► the hypercritical podcast then i'm going [TS]

◼   ► to list but I feel like I hit the [TS]

◼   ► highlights after a handful of bite [TS]

◼   ► alright so the number one thing that's [TS]

◼   ► wrong with the hypocritical podcast [TS]

◼   ► again i will give you one last chance to [TS]

◼   ► guests and what is the number one thing [TS]

◼   ► was wrong with a critical podcast [TS]

◼   ► besides the descending know that was [TS]

◼   ► gonna be my answer was that identity [TS]

◼   ► well you know you got to pick something [TS]

◼   ► different nothing i can't think of a [TS]

◼   ► single thing that I don't like about [TS]

◼   ► this show beside the defending besides [TS]

◼   ► it attending all right well here like I [TS]

◼   ► mean I'm not I'm not [TS]

◼   ► I'm not Haddie I mean need to back me up [TS]

◼   ► she's looking I Britt I can't think of [TS]

◼   ► anything all right here so there's [TS]

◼   ► nothing wrong with the John I did think [TS]

◼   ► of some things in here they are the [TS]

◼   ► number one thing was wrong with the [TS]

◼   ► hyprocure podcast is follow-up that's [TS]

◼   ► nothing wrong with that were you talking [TS]

◼   ► about you're not supposed to argue with [TS]

◼   ► me I garona myself oh yeah I still have [TS]

◼   ► your chance to give your account online [TS]

◼   ► well I'll be quiet yes also abbreviated [TS]

◼   ► as fu is the people who might not know [TS]

◼   ► is the part of the show we talk about [TS]

◼   ► talk about the topics discussed on past [TS]

◼   ► shows and we revisit them usually we [TS]

◼   ► revisit them in response to listener [TS]

◼   ► feedback sometimes it's like [TS]

◼   ► self-feedback where I realized that [TS]

◼   ► something was wrong or something you [TS]

◼   ► need to correct it there's different [TS]

◼   ► types of fu we have Corrections which is [TS]

◼   ► you know the comic-con we have [TS]

◼   ► expansions where it's like you know [TS]

◼   ► about the thing we talked about last [TS]

◼   ► week here's some more about it there's [TS]

◼   ► also clarifications where if i said [TS]

◼   ► something it was misunderstood i try to [TS]

◼   ► clarify it so what's so bad about follow [TS]

◼   ► up follow up happens at the start of the [TS]

◼   ► show and so it necessarily delays the [TS]

◼   ► discussion of whatever the new topic is [TS]

◼   ► just like on the show right here before [TS]

◼   ► we got to this part where you were talk [TS]

◼   ► about what's wrong with a hyper go to [TS]

◼   ► podcast we have to follow up it so that [TS]

◼   ► delayed this discussion and a common [TS]

◼   ► tweet from fans the show or things I see [TS]

◼   ► you know going back forth between people [TS]

◼   ► after we do a show or some topic comes [TS]

◼   ► up we'll say oh there was a great [TS]

◼   ► discussion about whatever this topic is [TS]

◼   ► you know in hypercritical episode number [TS]

◼   ► 96 I just you know check it out and skip [TS]

◼   ► the minute 35 and here's an actual tweet [TS]

◼   ► from being comparables Twitter account [TS]

◼   ► the inoperable another podcast that I [TS]

◼   ► participated in assuming this tweet was [TS]

◼   ► made by Jason Snell he usually runs that [TS]

◼   ► account for other people tweet to it as [TS]

◼   ► well I think uh here it is it says if [TS]

◼   ► you liked our bed at high school episode [TS]

◼   ► check out Syracuse on hypercritical this [TS]

◼   ► week and it gives a link to the episode [TS]

◼   ► starts 57 minutes in so that type of [TS]

◼   ► thing where whenever anyone wants to [TS]

◼   ► recommend the show to someone else they [TS]

◼   ► have to say I'll here check this one out [TS]

◼   ► and like skip a half an hour an hour [TS]

◼   ► into the show because they don't want to [TS]

◼   ► say I'll just check this out because if [TS]

◼   ► you just start listening you're like I [TS]

◼   ► thought they said this was gonna be [TS]

◼   ► about you know whatever that like the [TS]

◼   ► bad of high school stuff and I'm [TS]

◼   ► listening and he's talking about that [TS]

◼   ► stuff right anytime you know it anytime [TS]

◼   ► anyone talks about the show they have to [TS]

◼   ► give some sort of minute marker type [TS]

◼   ► thing and I find myself holding back [TS]

◼   ► from suggesting episodes of my own [TS]

◼   ► podcast of people just so I can avoid [TS]

◼   ► having to explain that I'll be checkers [TS]

◼   ► episode but you have to skip to a [TS]

◼   ► certain marker pointer skip skip a [TS]

◼   ► quarter of the show to get to the good [TS]

◼   ► part it makes the podcast harder to [TS]

◼   ► share with people and it makes it harder [TS]

◼   ► to get into if you're a new listener [TS]

◼   ► because the follow-up is not relevant to [TS]

◼   ► you if you didn't hear the previous [TS]

◼   ► episode if you just chase that all the [TS]

◼   ► way back you end up having to start [TS]

◼   ► listening for episode 1 which is two [TS]

◼   ► years ago and that's not really uh [TS]

◼   ► tenable and also the follow-up makes [TS]

◼   ► each episode longer because instead of [TS]

◼   ► just starting right in with a new thing [TS]

◼   ► that we want to talk about a new episode [TS]

◼   ► that you know 10 15 20 30 40 sometimes [TS]

◼   ► apparently 57 minutes of stuff before [TS]

◼   ► the actual topic of the show just makes [TS]

◼   ► every episode longer so a couple of [TS]

◼   ► remedies for the follow-up have been [TS]

◼   ► recommended over the years one early on [TS]

◼   ► people saying why don't we just put the [TS]

◼   ► fall but the end ha so like so could [TS]

◼   ► listen and say don't forget it I don't I [TS]

◼   ► don't wanna hear anymore this and then [TS]

◼   ► this stop or yeah but you get like the [TS]

◼   ► you get whatever the main topic is [TS]

◼   ► immediately so if you if there we did [TS]

◼   ► some cool show like you know video game [TS]

◼   ► controllers something you could say oh [TS]

◼   ► there was this episode about this uh [TS]

◼   ► check it out and just give you the link [TS]

◼   ► to episode whatever and you'd start [TS]

◼   ► listening and you would hear immediately [TS]

◼   ► after the little intro you'd hear about [TS]

◼   ► video can we control switch is what your [TS]

◼   ► friend one sent you the link for and [TS]

◼   ► then at the end you would have the [TS]

◼   ► follow-up and very early on that was [TS]

◼   ► suggested and I rejected it because it [TS]

◼   ► breaks continuity the way we do it with [TS]

◼   ► develop on the front preserves [TS]

◼   ► continuity because like on an episode [TS]

◼   ► we'll discuss topic a and then that [TS]

◼   ► episode will end and then the next [TS]

◼   ► episode we'll have more on topic a [TS]

◼   ► because it's follow-up and babble end [TS]

◼   ► and then we'll do topic be right and the [TS]

◼   ► other thing is that the topic be may [TS]

◼   ► build on topic a so if we didn't do the [TS]

◼   ► follow-up in the beginning say we're [TS]

◼   ► talking about topic be we'd have to have [TS]

◼   ► add some sort of waffling like I know [TS]

◼   ► that we said last week the blah blah [TS]

◼   ► blah but that isn't actually true which [TS]

◼   ► you'll see when we get to the follow up [TS]

◼   ► at the end like you can't you can't move [TS]

◼   ► on until you've addressed the follow up [TS]

◼   ► is if you're talking about the new topic [TS]

◼   ► you want to talk about it and [TS]

◼   ► light of the new revelations or new [TS]

◼   ► clarifications or expansions at the top [TS]

◼   ► from last week so follow up at the [TS]

◼   ► engines does not work for me people have [TS]

◼   ► suggested adding a chapter marker in the [TS]

◼   ► file itself are having separate [TS]

◼   ► follow-up episodes like a little mini [TS]

◼   ► episode and then the main episode or [TS]

◼   ► having a separate feed for follow-up all [TS]

◼   ► three of those solutions aside from the [TS]

◼   ► production related issues which you can [TS]

◼   ► speak to to say whether that would be [TS]

◼   ► feasible or whatever uh is that they all [TS]

◼   ► encourage skipping of the follow-up [TS]

◼   ► because the reason you'd want to have [TS]

◼   ► that marker and other stuff is like oh [TS]

◼   ► well there's that the follow up is sort [TS]

◼   ► of isolated if you don't want to listen [TS]

◼   ► to you can jump right past that I don't [TS]

◼   ► want people who don't pass that I want [TS]

◼   ► people to actually listen to the fall so [TS]

◼   ► why why why do we have follow-up why is [TS]

◼   ► it there after all these bad things I've [TS]

◼   ► said it but I truly believe the [TS]

◼   ► follow-up really is a big downside to [TS]

◼   ► the show that you know really stops it [TS]

◼   ► from being accessible and stops from [TS]

◼   ► being shared and all the things you [TS]

◼   ► would want like if you wanna make a [TS]

◼   ► popular podcast you wanted to be easily [TS]

◼   ► shared you want people to be jumped to [TS]

◼   ► jump right and so why do I do it ah well [TS]

◼   ► I think it's part of the theme of the [TS]

◼   ► shows that are the dedication to getting [TS]

◼   ► things correct have the attention to [TS]

◼   ► detail and you know in the highfalutin [TS]

◼   ► version that the search for truth or you [TS]

◼   ► know when as close as we can get and [TS]

◼   ► continuity like you know where you start [TS]

◼   ► listening and we're talking about things [TS]

◼   ► that we did in the last show continuity [TS]

◼   ► repels casual Lister's but it also [TS]

◼   ► rewards dedicated listeners because they [TS]

◼   ► feel like oh now I'm resuming this thing [TS]

◼   ► in progress I think we've seen this [TS]

◼   ► recently with television shows as well [TS]

◼   ► where people used to be allergic to [TS]

◼   ► continuity on television people who made [TS]

◼   ► TV shows would try to make everything [TS]

◼   ► episodic but slowly but surely [TS]

◼   ► television series have been learning [TS]

◼   ► that yes continuity does make it hard to [TS]

◼   ► get into a program but with time [TS]

◼   ► shifting and everything it's easier for [TS]

◼   ► people to start from the beginning or [TS]

◼   ► you know get it on DVD or streamer door [TS]

◼   ► whatever and continuity rewards the [TS]

◼   ► people who are dedicated fans of the [TS]

◼   ► show so that's sort of flipped around [TS]

◼   ► and it's the same dichotomy in [TS]

◼   ► podcasting enthusiastic fans want to [TS]

◼   ► hear more about the topics that [TS]

◼   ► interested in so if I talk about some [TS]

◼   ► topic and you know you're interested in [TS]

◼   ► it you're happy when you start the next [TS]

◼   ► show to hear more on that topic or some [TS]

◼   ► sort of fall pour a little tidbit fob [TS]

◼   ► also of course rewards the individual [TS]

◼   ► listeners who write in with the [TS]

◼   ► follow-up they get the thrill [TS]

◼   ► hearing their name is pronounced on the [TS]

◼   ► air and it's exciting that is a thrill [TS]

◼   ► yeah they get to participate in the [TS]

◼   ► conversation not really like you know [TS]

◼   ► real-time like a call-in show but they [TS]

◼   ► get to be a participant in a [TS]

◼   ► conversation that those thing to all be [TS]

◼   ► with a massive time delay sometimes they [TS]

◼   ► get to fault their own follow up on the [TS]

◼   ► next show so they can have sort of a you [TS]

◼   ► know an even longer conversation and all [TS]

◼   ► this I think encourages hardcore fans [TS]

◼   ► and helps the show by harvesting [TS]

◼   ► information that would otherwise be [TS]

◼   ► locked away in listeners minds so you [TS]

◼   ► know if you ever listen to a podcast and [TS]

◼   ► you get frustrated because the host of [TS]

◼   ► like wondering about something and you [TS]

◼   ► know the answer damn you wished you just [TS]

◼   ► yell into the thing like no no like here [TS]

◼   ► let me tell you what it is well [TS]

◼   ► follow-up provides an outlet for that [TS]

◼   ► frustration instead of just going these [TS]

◼   ► dopes don't they know or you know or if [TS]

◼   ► you know the answer you can't yell back [TS]

◼   ► into the pipe guess but if you know that [TS]

◼   ► follow-up is part of the format you can [TS]

◼   ► say well soon as I get home I'm gonna [TS]

◼   ► bang on email and say hey guys you were [TS]

◼   ► asking about XYZ I know about that [TS]

◼   ► here's the answer and not only is an [TS]

◼   ► outlet for the frustration for them but [TS]

◼   ► I'm now reaping the benefits of having a [TS]

◼   ► smart informed audience like you know [TS]

◼   ► presumably someone in our audience knows [TS]

◼   ► a lot about you know wireless security [TS]

◼   ► or history of video game controllers or [TS]

◼   ► how Intel does their CPUs or whatever [TS]

◼   ► I'm benefiting from that so I despite [TS]

◼   ► the fact that I think this is clear all [TS]

◼   ► of us clear the biggest thing that's [TS]

◼   ► wrong with the show those are all the [TS]

◼   ► reasons that I keep it and you know [TS]

◼   ► early on decided to keep it and it stuck [TS]

◼   ► with it and the other thing about [TS]

◼   ► follow-up is it it could be that [TS]

◼   ► follow-up ends up being the most [TS]

◼   ► enduring aspect of of the shows i was [TS]

◼   ► thinking about this I'd listen to a lot [TS]

◼   ► of other pot gets a lot about the five [TS]

◼   ► by five podcast and a lot of them do [TS]

◼   ► follow-up uh sometimes like ironically [TS]

◼   ► or jokingly like for the people who [TS]

◼   ► happen to know me like Marco our Merlin [TS]

◼   ► will say oh yeah and I've got a little [TS]

◼   ► piece of follow-up or whatever and [TS]

◼   ► they're doing it kind of half joke haha [TS]

◼   ► like it's not a dedicated part of the [TS]

◼   ► format but anytime I do have something [TS]

◼   ► like that they'll throw it in right uh [TS]

◼   ► but even on shows like I can geek Friday [TS]

◼   ► I don't think either of the hosts of [TS]

◼   ► geek Friday ever listened to my show and [TS]

◼   ► yet they have follow-up as well and I [TS]

◼   ► wonder you know kind of like cutting the [TS]

◼   ► ends off the roast you know that story [TS]

◼   ► no it's only the story it's like the [TS]

◼   ► woman is making a roast or something and [TS]

◼   ► she's cutting off the ends of it [TS]

◼   ► sometimes why why are you cutting off [TS]

◼   ► the ends of your roasters oh well you [TS]

◼   ► know my mother always cut the ends off [TS]

◼   ► you always have to do that makes the [TS]

◼   ► Rose come out better and then they asked [TS]

◼   ► the mother you know your daughter said [TS]

◼   ► you always have to cut off the ends of [TS]

◼   ► the rose when you put in the of it makes [TS]

◼   ► come out better while you do that so [TS]

◼   ► well my grandmother you know my mother [TS]

◼   ► your grandmother always cut the ends off [TS]

◼   ► throws you have to do that or as it [TS]

◼   ► doesn't come out right and so they asked [TS]

◼   ► the grandmother why'd you cut the ends [TS]

◼   ► off the rose and said well I'm all my [TS]

◼   ► roasting pans were too small so I always [TS]

◼   ► had to cut the ends off for so-and-so [TS]

◼   ► like three generations no no one knows [TS]

◼   ► why you're cutting the ends off the [TS]

◼   ► roses like oh that's what you do when [TS]

◼   ► you make roast right it's just the right [TS]

◼   ► thing too so I'm wondering if like the [TS]

◼   ► people who do geek Friday do they know [TS]

◼   ► where follow-up comes from and even like [TS]

◼   ► outside the network you know that the [TS]

◼   ► second incarnation of the talk show [TS]

◼   ► which is no longer even on five by five [TS]

◼   ► Gruber does fall tonight show as well so [TS]

◼   ► you know this is my lasting legacy is [TS]

◼   ► five degrees separator from five by five [TS]

◼   ► Don some podcast somewhere some will [TS]

◼   ► mention that they're going to do [TS]

◼   ► follow-up and have no idea why they're [TS]

◼   ► doing that or where that term came from [TS]

◼   ► or where that format I mean I'm maybe [TS]

◼   ► I'm not the first person ever to do fall [TS]

◼   ► out but I think I can trace a straight [TS]

◼   ► line through from my follow-up to the [TS]

◼   ► very least Marco and merlyn's follow-up [TS]

◼   ► probably the Friday's fall property [TS]

◼   ► Gruber's follow-up as well so I think [TS]

◼   ► there is some merit to this idea perhaps [TS]

◼   ► not to the degree that I did it in my [TS]

◼   ► show but you know every show is [TS]

◼   ► different all right item number two that [TS]

◼   ► is wrong with the hypercritical podcast [TS]

◼   ► of the title I think there are probably [TS]

◼   ► very few people who have positive [TS]

◼   ► feelings about the word hypercritical in [TS]

◼   ► people who don't already know about the [TS]

◼   ► podcast or blog or anything else like [TS]

◼   ► that it it repels most normal people [TS]

◼   ► with negative implications of the work [TS]

◼   ► because like being critical as a bad [TS]

◼   ► thing in most circles being critical [TS]

◼   ► hurts people's feelings and hyper [TS]

◼   ► critical is even worse hi from critical [TS]

◼   ► is being needlessly critical like you're [TS]

◼   ► being a jerk like you're not just being [TS]

◼   ► critical but you bring hypercritical so [TS]

◼   ► you're just a super-duper jerk and so [TS]

◼   ► why would you want a podcast about [TS]

◼   ► hurting people's feelings needlessly it [TS]

◼   ► just turns it's a big turnoff it just [TS]

◼   ► turns people off uh and you know I [TS]

◼   ► acknowledge that now what so why do I [TS]

◼   ► have this title well the first reason is [TS]

◼   ► that the ARS technica article that I [TS]

◼   ► wrote several years before the podcast [TS]

◼   ► had the same name as its title is titled [TS]

◼   ► hyper [TS]

◼   ► protocol and that was the inspiration [TS]

◼   ► for the show for the format of the show [TS]

◼   ► the content of the show everything about [TS]

◼   ► the show a link to this articles in the [TS]

◼   ► show notes one last time if you still [TS]

◼   ► haven't found it ah that's not exactly a [TS]

◼   ► reason to use it for the title the [TS]

◼   ► podcast but that's why I originally [TS]

◼   ► picked it second reason is that it's [TS]

◼   ► kind of a hedge against criticism [TS]

◼   ► because people are going to say I [TS]

◼   ► listened that show the guys so picky and [TS]

◼   ► he's got so many complaints and and you [TS]

◼   ► can answer that you know well what's the [TS]

◼   ► title of the show like what did you [TS]

◼   ► think you were getting it does what it [TS]

◼   ► says on the tin as the saying goes [TS]

◼   ► stolen from England or wherever uh the [TS]

◼   ► show is called hypercritical so you [TS]

◼   ► should expect that type of thing right [TS]

◼   ► now that's not exactly doesn't make any [TS]

◼   ► sense just because that's the title the [TS]

◼   ► show that doesn't answer if your if your [TS]

◼   ► issue is that the i'm too picky on the [TS]

◼   ► show and the show is full of complaints [TS]

◼   ► me telling you that all will just look [TS]

◼   ► at the title the show doesn't answer any [TS]

◼   ► of your complaints it's not it's not a [TS]

◼   ► come it's not a justification at all but [TS]

◼   ► that doesn't mean it doesn't placate [TS]

◼   ► people because people are not logical so [TS]

◼   ► I find that when people say you know you [TS]

◼   ► see this I said compensation copying all [TS]

◼   ► the time in the chat room and Twitter or [TS]

◼   ► whatever someone listen to the show say [TS]

◼   ► it's full of complaints and it's picking [TS]

◼   ► other person will say well duh look at [TS]

◼   ► the title of the show and that ends the [TS]

◼   ► conversation and it shouldn't but it [TS]

◼   ► does uh toughie like I don't know if [TS]

◼   ► that's a justification for the title but [TS]

◼   ► it's one of those perverse actual [TS]

◼   ► interactions that happens all the time [TS]

◼   ► uh and pointing to the title the show [TS]

◼   ► somehow ends the debate they go well [TS]

◼   ► okay I guess and that really shouldn't [TS]

◼   ► be telling people it shouldnt that [TS]

◼   ► shouldn't end the debate because you [TS]

◼   ► haven't actually answered the criticism [TS]

◼   ► if you don't like the show because [TS]

◼   ► there's too much complaint someone [TS]

◼   ► pointing the title to you doesn't make [TS]

◼   ► you like the show any better and [TS]

◼   ► shouldn't stop you from having that [TS]

◼   ► complaint so I don't have a real good [TS]

◼   ► justification except that I like the [TS]

◼   ► title it's hard to come up with good [TS]

◼   ► titles i became attached to it because [TS]

◼   ► it was attached to that article which [TS]

◼   ► involved both me and steve jobs and and [TS]

◼   ► it was the inspiration for the show so [TS]

◼   ► it only makes sense for it to be the [TS]

◼   ► title ah but it does it does keep people [TS]

◼   ► away next item show duration here this [TS]

◼   ► one a lot shows are too long okay i can [TS]

◼   ► i can get on board with this one a [TS]

◼   ► little bit because you must suffer [TS]

◼   ► through them to know I it's never [TS]

◼   ► suffering and and it's [TS]

◼   ► but here's the thing mayotte may I jump [TS]

◼   ► in here go for it it's not that the [TS]

◼   ► shows are too long it's that the shows [TS]

◼   ► are longer than most other shows that [TS]

◼   ► other people would hear especially in [TS]

◼   ► the format that this show is which is [TS]

◼   ► pretty much you talking and I don't [TS]

◼   ► think that it's that they're too long I [TS]

◼   ► think it's longer than what many people [TS]

◼   ► are used to what many people expect and [TS]

◼   ► perhaps what many people have time for [TS]

◼   ► but I would my counterpoint to this [TS]

◼   ► before you respond is that's what makes [TS]

◼   ► the shows great and that any less time [TS]

◼   ► any less time than you devote to these [TS]

◼   ► things would be carelessness from your [TS]

◼   ► standpoint I think I'm not saying you [TS]

◼   ► would be careless I'm saying you feel [TS]

◼   ► because of your desire to be complete [TS]

◼   ► and to totally understand something and [TS]

◼   ► discuss it you must examine every point [TS]

◼   ► and for you to do any less would be a [TS]

◼   ► disservice and so the show bank argument [TS]

◼   ► logically it doesn't make it that much [TS]

◼   ► sense because as we both pointed out [TS]

◼   ► many times like you don't have to listen [TS]

◼   ► to an entire show in a single sitting I [TS]

◼   ► certainly don't like I I listened to [TS]

◼   ► even very short podcasts split up into [TS]

◼   ► pieces maybe some people find that [TS]

◼   ► off-putting but like you know when i'm [TS]

◼   ► on my commute when i get home i stop [TS]

◼   ► whatever podcast and listening to and [TS]

◼   ► it's always in the middle of one you [TS]

◼   ► know it's rarely at the end but as we [TS]

◼   ► just got done saying people are really [TS]

◼   ► logical and you know they just I well I [TS]

◼   ► just don't like listening to things [TS]

◼   ► split up like you know it even even [TS]

◼   ► ignoring the session length issue like I [TS]

◼   ► just want to have one listening session [TS]

◼   ► it needs to be a certain length and I [TS]

◼   ► don't like stopping in the middle as you [TS]

◼   ► said some people just don't have time to [TS]

◼   ► listen to two hours of audio in the week [TS]

◼   ► like maybe they don't have a commute or [TS]

◼   ► maybe they don't have two hours with [TS]

◼   ► dishes to wash or maybe they prefer [TS]

◼   ► music most of the time right and so if [TS]

◼   ► if your podcast is good enough a 30 [TS]

◼   ► minute or 60 minute podcast has a chance [TS]

◼   ► of snagging people who don't normally [TS]

◼   ► listen to podcast so if you're like all [TS]

◼   ► right well I don't normally have a place [TS]

◼   ► in my life where I listen to podcast [TS]

◼   ► again don't have a commuter don't I to [TS]

◼   ► listen to music other times or whatever [TS]

◼   ► if the podcast is really good and it's [TS]

◼   ► like 30-60 minutes maybe you can get [TS]

◼   ► some of those guys but it's like 90 or [TS]

◼   ► 120 minutes forget it like it's really [TS]

◼   ► hard to get those people to come over to [TS]

◼   ► listen to your podcast if it's just so [TS]

◼   ► long right [TS]

◼   ► uh and so why the heck of my show so [TS]

◼   ► long and by the way there was another [TS]

◼   ► let me grab the link in the chat room [TS]

◼   ► there's another more complicated [TS]

◼   ► analysis of show length still showing a [TS]

◼   ► general upward trend but of course that [TS]

◼   ► trend and now because the show link will [TS]

◼   ► suddenly drop to zero driving yeah that [TS]

◼   ► the show length won't drop to zero there [TS]

◼   ► would just be no more shows yeah I guess [TS]

◼   ► I you're right uh so so why is this so [TS]

◼   ► long well the first thing is that [TS]

◼   ► preparation for the show makes shows [TS]

◼   ► shorter because when I know what I'm [TS]

◼   ► gonna say I don't like meander as much [TS]

◼   ► and I can kind of say okay i'm halfway i [TS]

◼   ► do i'ma quarter through whatever but [TS]

◼   ► even with our literally hours of [TS]

◼   ► preparation for each oh the the limiting [TS]

◼   ► factor is that i have a lot to say about [TS]

◼   ► these topics and thoroughness is part of [TS]

◼   ► the theme of the show right I said about [TS]

◼   ► my writing before that like the most [TS]

◼   ► important thing for me when I'm writing [TS]

◼   ► for a good or for ill is to get all the [TS]

◼   ► ideas I have out onto the page every [TS]

◼   ► little thing like you know I will find [TS]

◼   ► it frustrating if I get through a [TS]

◼   ► section and like a Mac os10 review or [TS]

◼   ► something it's like oh I wanted to also [TS]

◼   ► make one particular point about this one [TS]

◼   ► control in the interface and I have to [TS]

◼   ► find someplace to jam that I just want [TS]

◼   ► to get it all out like I want to I don't [TS]

◼   ► want to finish the thing and say I [TS]

◼   ► didn't make that point because I just [TS]

◼   ► didn't have room or something so I want [TS]

◼   ► to get it out and of course fault makes [TS]

◼   ► the show longer and it's also part of [TS]

◼   ► the same sort of thoroughness theme but [TS]

◼   ► it's but it's like you said like I have [TS]

◼   ► if I have what to say I want to get it a [TS]

◼   ► lot i don't feel satisfied if I haven't [TS]

◼   ► and I think that fits with the theme of [TS]

◼   ► the show that you know not wanting to [TS]

◼   ► let things go the thoroughness you know [TS]

◼   ► the attention to detail just the [TS]

◼   ► obsessed the general obsessiveness of [TS]

◼   ► the entire endeavor and that just plain [TS]

◼   ► results in long show so the preparation [TS]

◼   ► is a hedge against that but even even [TS]

◼   ► with the preparation all does is let me [TS]

◼   ► get my you know umpteen points out and [TS]

◼   ► make sure to make sure I got them all [TS]

◼   ► out and didn't miss any ah yeah next [TS]

◼   ► item and you touched on this already and [TS]

◼   ► maybe they should've been higher listed [TS]

◼   ► domination of a single voice which is [TS]

◼   ► mine no matter how much you like a [TS]

◼   ► person hearing too much from them can [TS]

◼   ► start to wear you down [TS]

◼   ► you you Dan are the co-host of the show [TS]

◼   ► but for the most part you let me talk [TS]

◼   ► when I want to talk well sir I mean I'd [TS]

◼   ► say this to Merlin is a joke it's your [TS]

◼   ► show this really is it's your show this [TS]

◼   ► your form of my role here from from day [TS]

◼   ► one is just to be supportive of that be [TS]

◼   ► give help help you keep this platform [TS]

◼   ► and you know the best it can be we're in [TS]

◼   ► sync today damn because the very next [TS]

◼   ► item of my whole point is it's my show [TS]

◼   ► you know as you're so fond of saying [TS]

◼   ► well you finally shared your notes with [TS]

◼   ► me yeah there you go I and this is in [TS]

◼   ► general how I want things uh but the [TS]

◼   ► downside of this format is that siracusa [TS]

◼   ► fatigue is a real risk especially with [TS]

◼   ► long shows right uh you know and a [TS]

◼   ► corollary to this is that this format of [TS]

◼   ► you know the single voice dominant thing [TS]

◼   ► makes it much harder for me to not that [TS]

◼   ► I'm good at this already but makes much [TS]

◼   ► harder for me to do any sort of decent [TS]

◼   ► interview like when we had Jeff Atwood [TS]

◼   ► on I talked to all rim which was always [TS]

◼   ► rude and terrible that's great but that [TS]

◼   ► like if you get acclimated to that it's [TS]

◼   ► like when you do the hyper go to a [TS]

◼   ► podcast you go into hyper critical [TS]

◼   ► podcast mode in your use of just being [TS]

◼   ► the singular voice uh that doesn't fit [TS]

◼   ► with lots of other formats like for [TS]

◼   ► example doing an interview type thing uh [TS]

◼   ► and that's a shame but that limits the [TS]

◼   ► show and in general having a single boys [TS]

◼   ► means that my peculiar taste dictate [TS]

◼   ► entire shows worth of material so I'm [TS]

◼   ► really interested in console controller [TS]

◼   ► so we do hall show on console [TS]

◼   ► controllers it might my own pet [TS]

◼   ► programming language peeves and things [TS]

◼   ► like that tons of stuff on tivo even if [TS]

◼   ► the rest of the world is not that [TS]

◼   ► interested in tivo toasters like you [TS]

◼   ► name it single voice means that you get [TS]

◼   ► everything that comes with that the good [TS]

◼   ► and the bad right and if it was a more [TS]

◼   ► balanced show like a second opinion [TS]

◼   ► could help veto topics that are too [TS]

◼   ► narrow or you know or at least rein me [TS]

◼   ► in when I'm wearing out my welcome on a [TS]

◼   ► single topic or something like that and [TS]

◼   ► that would help the show have broader [TS]

◼   ► appeal because if it was like if it was [TS]

◼   ► like an equal type of show where you [TS]

◼   ► have like two people going at the same [TS]

◼   ► time they could balance each other and [TS]

◼   ► try to get something that had a broader [TS]

◼   ► appeal because if you're not interested [TS]

◼   ► in things that I'm interested in a [TS]

◼   ► single voice show like this you just [TS]

◼   ► like like people skip entire episodes [TS]

◼   ► like oh we just started talking about [TS]

◼   ► programming languages I just tuned out [TS]

◼   ► and skip the whole episode ah and that's [TS]

◼   ► not the way to have a [TS]

◼   ► popular show was brought appeal so what [TS]

◼   ► why is this a single boy show i [TS]

◼   ► mentioned that that's what I wanted that [TS]

◼   ► is what I wanted out of the show I [TS]

◼   ► wanted to do a thing where we had a [TS]

◼   ► podcast and it was my podcast and I got [TS]

◼   ► to talk with the singular voice [TS]

◼   ► moderated by co-host yes and like that I [TS]

◼   ► think is it a totally essential element [TS]

◼   ► hmm because I've tried and failed [TS]

◼   ► several times to record things on my own [TS]

◼   ► with no co-host and it just does not [TS]

◼   ► work uh and I'm the wing of the wind [TS]

◼   ► beneath your wings if you yes and we [TS]

◼   ► remember when you went on vacation or [TS]

◼   ► not vacation when you moved your house [TS]

◼   ► it's like the UH in the secret of NIMH [TS]

◼   ► when the Brisby move their house that's [TS]

◼   ► where I'm at in your movies that's [TS]

◼   ► exactly what it was the rats and the [TS]

◼   ► alleys and yes yes that I meaning in [TS]

◼   ► every detail exactly like someone got [TS]

◼   ► crushed underneath a cinder block it was [TS]

◼   ► messy Oh ademas sorry Helen when you and [TS]

◼   ► you had a guest host stand in so he was [TS]

◼   ► not just it you know who was a Ryan [TS]

◼   ► Ireland yeah I think Ryan Ireland uh [TS]

◼   ► stood in for for me back then he did a [TS]

◼   ► great job and he'd also hosted the show [TS]

◼   ► with Marco but uh you know it just [TS]

◼   ► wasn't the same maybe because like you [TS]

◼   ► know those were his first first time [TS]

◼   ► ever talking to me in person and the [TS]

◼   ► first couple shows and he you know he [TS]

◼   ► did a good job filling the role of a [TS]

◼   ► co-host but it's not just any co-host [TS]

◼   ► like I think you in particular provide a [TS]

◼   ► certain essential ingredient to this [TS]

◼   ► podcast ah so I think that does have to [TS]

◼   ► be a co-host in the mix and not just any [TS]

◼   ► Coast because it like those shows were [TS]

◼   ► different then the shows that the you [TS]

◼   ► host but I wanted the overall show to [TS]

◼   ► have a singular voice the same way I got [TS]

◼   ► your own blog has a singular voice right [TS]

◼   ► like you know hi vulajin or something [TS]

◼   ► like that is your voice it's not and [TS]

◼   ► it's not even moderated by a co-host or [TS]

◼   ► anything basement blog you don't need to [TS]

◼   ► co something I but like that's it's this [TS]

◼   ► is the podcast version of a blog I [TS]

◼   ► wanted some ones that I want to hear [TS]

◼   ► what this one person has say I go on [TS]

◼   ► this is his podcast I'll listen to him [TS]

◼   ► talk right and part of your roles also [TS]

◼   ► that you are sort of standing in you are [TS]

◼   ► the advocate for the audience a little [TS]

◼   ► bit like right whether it's just looking [TS]

◼   ► at the chat room or thinking of the [TS]

◼   ► questions that are going to come up in [TS]

◼   ► the audience's mind and so on and so [TS]

◼   ► forth so I mean you know because we and [TS]

◼   ► that's the thing is that that like you [TS]

◼   ► mentioned before where we'll have [TS]

◼   ► follow-up because we won't you know we [TS]

◼   ► might say something or you might be [TS]

◼   ► talking about something and maybe you [TS]

◼   ► get a something that's not hun percent [TS]

◼   ► right a lot of the time the chat room [TS]

◼   ► will channel that but when I hear you [TS]

◼   ► say something a lot at the time and I [TS]

◼   ► just there's something in my gut it says [TS]

◼   ► wait a minute this doesn't happen a lot [TS]

◼   ► especially not when we're talking about [TS]

◼   ► technical stuff because they you you've [TS]

◼   ► got all that figured out when we're [TS]

◼   ► talking about the other stuff that that [TS]

◼   ► where there's like a judgment involved [TS]

◼   ► and I think well maybe I needs you know [TS]

◼   ► what are they going to say to that and [TS]

◼   ► I'm you know you've got it I've got to [TS]

◼   ► jump in so maybe it's just that maybe [TS]

◼   ► it's just that you feel that you know [TS]

◼   ► you're not alone talking into a mic and [TS]

◼   ► even though you know there's an audience [TS]

◼   ► there listening having me here you know [TS]

◼   ► I did it makes it more of a discussion [TS]

◼   ► even though it's it's pretty much your [TS]

◼   ► turn on the podium the whole time yeah [TS]

◼   ► yeah so like i said i think i think that [TS]

◼   ► does limit the appeal of the show [TS]

◼   ► because no matter how it's like if [TS]

◼   ► anybody think of your favorite celebrity [TS]

◼   ► like like a Ricky Gervais so like say [TS]

◼   ► you're a big fan of him or something I [TS]

◼   ► mean he's he's great if it were my [TS]

◼   ► choice you're my favorite celebrity he [TS]

◼   ► was just a show with him totally even [TS]

◼   ► the shows that he does he has this [TS]

◼   ► partner that be kind of bounces off but [TS]

◼   ► it's more equal night so just having [TS]

◼   ► like having a single person dominated [TS]

◼   ► blog I feel it much easier to deal with [TS]

◼   ► than having a single person dominated [TS]

◼   ► podcast so it you know especially if you [TS]

◼   ► know if you if you if that person is not [TS]

◼   ► like likable and appealing that really [TS]

◼   ► limits how how many people are going to [TS]

◼   ► be able to listen to and like the show [TS]

◼   ► but that by that's what I wanted that so [TS]

◼   ► I wanted was a single voice podcast [TS]

◼   ► that's what I got ah next item it's [TS]

◼   ► wrong with hypercritical podcast is want [TS]

◼   ► me wanting to discuss topics that are [TS]

◼   ► outside my areas of expertise all right [TS]

◼   ► not doing enough background research on [TS]

◼   ► those topics what's an example of one of [TS]

◼   ► those well get the examples I mentioned [TS]

◼   ► the past shows that I'm not a journalist [TS]

◼   ► and because i can't just write about any [TS]

◼   ► topic like a real journalist you just [TS]

◼   ► throw it a topic they'll learn about and [TS]

◼   ► talk about it ah it you know in general [TS]

◼   ► when i do writing i stick to what I [TS]

◼   ► actually know stuff about or I'm close [TS]

◼   ► to knowing about so i can do a little [TS]

◼   ► bit of research and figure it out uh and [TS]

◼   ► though i have you no interest in [TS]

◼   ► passionate about lots of topics [TS]

◼   ► I break the format a little bit when I [TS]

◼   ► tackle things on the podcast that they [TS]

◼   ► have little practical experience with [TS]

◼   ► and it changes for me the podcast then [TS]

◼   ► changes from me sharing informed [TS]

◼   ► opinions and backgrounds with the [TS]

◼   ► audience to me having what one listener [TS]

◼   ► once described as a slow-motion argument [TS]

◼   ► with the Internet where where it'll be [TS]

◼   ► like me discussing something with all [TS]

◼   ► listeners in the show but in slow motion [TS]

◼   ► because I get to have my say then they [TS]

◼   ► do a bunch of fall and then it comes [TS]

◼   ► back around then we go on and on [TS]

◼   ► examples of this urban we talked about [TS]

◼   ► patents or voting technology or geek [TS]

◼   ► culture areas where I'm not an expert in [TS]

◼   ► any of them and tried to say that up [TS]

◼   ► front but that it changes the the nature [TS]

◼   ► of the show in a strange way and it does [TS]

◼   ► turn into the you know slow motion [TS]

◼   ► discussion / argument with the entire [TS]

◼   ► internet or the audience of the show so [TS]

◼   ► why why do I do that why not stick the [TS]

◼   ► topics that I know well well as we [TS]

◼   ► already established it is a single voice [TS]

◼   ► podcast and I do have an interest in [TS]

◼   ► those topics and I want to discuss them [TS]

◼   ► ah and I actually like that slow motion [TS]

◼   ► argument with listeners experience for [TS]

◼   ► the most part although I'd college [TS]

◼   ► discussion not an argument I actually [TS]

◼   ► enjoy that that's why I do it so much is [TS]

◼   ► why we had 17 episodes about patents [TS]

◼   ► where I just kept talking about it [TS]

◼   ► beginning it was I kind of like that it [TS]

◼   ► does kind of split the pot guests into [TS]

◼   ► two kinds of episodes though the kind [TS]

◼   ► where I know the kind where I generally [TS]

◼   ► know more about a topic than most of the [TS]

◼   ► audience and the kind where I do not hmm [TS]

◼   ► but I don't like some people like one [TS]

◼   ► kind of episode some people like the [TS]

◼   ► other some people like hearing you know [TS]

◼   ► me talk about my mac OS 10 review where [TS]

◼   ► I've you know already thought about [TS]

◼   ► these issues and research them and know [TS]

◼   ► about them ahead of time and have [TS]

◼   ► written about them then I'm just [TS]

◼   ► clarifying that people like those things [TS]

◼   ► or talk about the top of good I know [TS]

◼   ► about like programming languages or you [TS]

◼   ► know file systems or something like that [TS]

◼   ► and other people like the episodes bar [TS]

◼   ► that are more open-ended where I'm [TS]

◼   ► talking about something that there [TS]

◼   ► aren't as many hard and fast things and [TS]

◼   ► I don't even know all the facts are [TS]

◼   ► background like patents or you know geek [TS]

◼   ► culture something some people like those [TS]

◼   ► type of episodes I like to have both [TS]

◼   ► kinds of episodes in the podcast but it [TS]

◼   ► does make it so it kind of splits the [TS]

◼   ► podcast and to where you never know what [TS]

◼   ► you're going to get if you tune in [TS]

◼   ► because you heard like the Walter [TS]

◼   ► Isaacson thing where i know tons about [TS]

◼   ► the next show on patents where I man [TS]

◼   ► admitted non-expert [TS]

◼   ► like what happened to the show I was [TS]

◼   ► listening to and by the same token if [TS]

◼   ► you like oh I like that geek culture [TS]

◼   ► episode you find out that that's [TS]

◼   ► generally not the type of thing that I [TS]

◼   ► talked about this kind of squishy topics [TS]

◼   ► and instead I do an episode about the [TS]

◼   ► like what happened to the podcast I [TS]

◼   ► wanted to listen to me right so you [TS]

◼   ► can't I'm you know you can't please [TS]

◼   ► everyone with both of those topics and [TS]

◼   ► it does it you know it's like it's like [TS]

◼   ► to podcasts in one and the people who [TS]

◼   ► like one are probably not going to like [TS]

◼   ► the other as much alright and the final [TS]

◼   ► item again this is not like the last [TS]

◼   ► thing that's wrong with the show there [TS]

◼   ► are many many many more things wrong and [TS]

◼   ► I bet you and the audience can list them [TS]

◼   ► on your own maybe make your own list but [TS]

◼   ► this is the one I stopped on because i [TS]

◼   ► figured that like you know diminishing [TS]

◼   ► returns like i've hit the highlights the [TS]

◼   ► final thing is wrong with the podcast is [TS]

◼   ► it's not a full-time job for me [TS]

◼   ► everything about this show would be [TS]

◼   ► improved with more time and effort on my [TS]

◼   ► part i would have more time for [TS]

◼   ► preparation instead of just preparing [TS]

◼   ► for several hours like i do it would be [TS]

◼   ► prepare and then go back and edit the [TS]

◼   ► preparation which I generally don't have [TS]

◼   ► time to do like I go from top to bottom [TS]

◼   ► prepare my notes and like that take [TS]

◼   ► several hours and said put in the links [TS]

◼   ► and that's it I don't have time to go [TS]

◼   ► back again and again and go over it you [TS]

◼   ► know I could if I did I could formulate [TS]

◼   ► actual segments like to try to have more [TS]

◼   ► complex segments with more moving parts [TS]

◼   ► and more interesting things in them I [TS]

◼   ► could do much better background research [TS]

◼   ► on things but like it is a limited [TS]

◼   ► amount I'm I can dedicate to this uh and [TS]

◼   ► since it's not my full-time job I never [TS]

◼   ► did learn many of the skills that can [TS]

◼   ► help improve a podcast in general like a [TS]

◼   ► proper diction and less mumbling more [TS]

◼   ► polished segues between segments fewer [TS]

◼   ► um Xand us and all the verbal tics and [TS]

◼   ► saying right with a question mark after [TS]

◼   ► every have you listened to to the shows [TS]

◼   ► that you started out doing you know [TS]

◼   ► ninety some episodes back compare [TS]

◼   ► yourself to the way you are now you're a [TS]

◼   ► pro I mean first of all you were really [TS]

◼   ► good in the beginning but your total pro [TS]

◼   ► now you don't have any of those things [TS]

◼   ► anymore I've improved but I can fight [TS]

◼   ► all the time like a you know I'm saying [TS]

◼   ► is that if it was a full-time job I feel [TS]

◼   ► confident that I would be better at [TS]

◼   ► these things and so if you're listening [TS]

◼   ► to a podcast for two years you know like [TS]

◼   ► Jesus guys still almond his way through [TS]

◼   ► this and it's driving me nuts and you're [TS]

◼   ► right like after two years you would [TS]

◼   ► think wouldn't he'd be better after two [TS]

◼   ► years but like I'm doing this for a [TS]

◼   ► couple of hours a week it's not a [TS]

◼   ► full-time job like [TS]

◼   ► you know I'm not gonna say I'm not a [TS]

◼   ► professional podcaster because I am [TS]

◼   ► technically a professional podcaster but [TS]

◼   ► it is not a full-time job and if you [TS]

◼   ► listen to podcasts you know from like [TS]

◼   ► your podcast is your full-time job right [TS]

◼   ► like there's a difference in level of [TS]

◼   ► Polish about you know sort of beyond [TS]

◼   ► their skills between these type of [TS]

◼   ► things that you know and for podcast [TS]

◼   ► like mine that I think this is a [TS]

◼   ► difference in terms of the amount of [TS]

◼   ► research you like listen to you know [TS]

◼   ► radio lab or something or this american [TS]

◼   ► life you might have work and that goes [TS]

◼   ► into an episode of this american life is [TS]
