If you have the temerity to start a podcast in this economy, I would encourage you to google things like “Noise Gate,” Compressor,” “De-Esser,” and “best EQ settings for spoken word.” Good luck!

If you're tired of reading articles, or even books - you can just upload them onto NotebookLM to get an AI-podcasted "deep dive". I sampled an Economist piece and got 10 mins worth of surprisingly good repartee!
Step-by-step:
❶ Try NotebookLM" at Notebooklm.google.com
❷ Create a new notebook and upload your document.
❸ Once done, open the "Notebook guide" section and click "Generate" next to "Audio Overview".
❹ Wait a couple of minutes and you can play it anywhere.
Oddly, Google is also running a similar project, with Illuminate (currently only available for papers hosted on http://arXiv.org)

The MyPillow guy’s self-published memoir, read aloud in his thick Minnesotan accent. He’s a professional card counter, constantly $80k in the hole, blowing coke in his Chevy, chased by cops, threatened by drug dealers in Mexico, all while running 3 bars in greater Minneapolis. And that’s before he invents the pillow.

I think my analyst is Freudian, but I have a soft spot for Jung because my parents are from LA. I love hearing analysts use terms like “the imp of the perverse” to talk about procrastination. I especially love the dream analysis, where they’ll tell some random guy the burning hearth in his dream means he’s taking on a feminine role in his marriage.

Epic construction fails, men doing crazy unsafe jobs, and occasional near-death misses. It’s a testament to the chaos of society, the benefits of regulation, the pratfalls of development, and the fragility of humanity. Call it manual labor fetishism, but it’s good to see real men doing things and be reminded of how weak you are.
