hey @adam, #podcasting is supposedly getting music license options although

"no agreements with any record labels yet"

@irritable ha! No, she just seems to think we're ONLY interested in the weather forecast and not the actual results.

OPPOSITE with the market. She WILL tell me what a stock closed at yesterday but no forecasts for it.

when I ask #GoogleAssistant how much rain we GOT last night, she never knows.

She DOES see into the future for anticipated moisture... but not the past.

What's ODD is, past #weather is one of those Known Knowns.

Whereas forecasts are... well... not always accurate.

G is more comfortable citing an uncertain future than a recorded past.

I bought a rain gauge.
1.3 inches last night

it is a #gaming #society

There was an era when only a small percentage "gamed" the system. It could support a little. Some knew but let it slide.

Now, it's just the way things are done. All day. Every day.

And often with no skin in The Game or little to gain.

hey, @adam... Tim Ferriss is going to try the Value For Value support model on his very popular podcast for the next six months.

Should be interesting to see how his experiment turns out.

its springtime!

I once commissioned Pat Fleet, the "voice of AT&T", to record an old joke about imaginary numbers. The result was epic:

She sent a high quality recording, but, naturally, I had to apply some EQ filters to make it sound like a phone call.

"So! Who left room for Confections?"

a fine piece of word-smithery...

more MISAPPROPRIATION of the popular term PODCAST lately...

... some interesting projects, but clearly NOT #podcasting.

"If an audio file is not available over the web, or is behind a paywall, or is otherwise exclusive it may be a very fine worthwhile thing, but it is not a #podcast." -Dave Winer (of #RSS fame)

"more people listen to #podcasting per week (19%) than listen to SiriusXM (16%)" per Nielsen -- ht Podnews

so, SiriusXM had revenues of $5+ billion last year...

@thor I'm going to start paying attention to that more...

The Theranos story is fascinating.
