What if your most powerful podcasting tool was… email? In the next episode of "Sound Strategy with Lucas Dickey", we talk to "The Feed" co-hosts @elsie.bsky.social and Rob Walch about their 17-year run with podcasting and @libsyn.com , audience-first thinking, and why the inbox still matters.

Mayday, mayday! I just found out that the ATR-2100x USB microphone has been discontinued! IYKYK. My heart breaks for all the how to start a podcast content out there that now needs to be updated... https://www.audio-technica.com/en-us/atr2100x-usb

Because you don’t need more strategy. You need a turning point. Deadline to apply is this Friday, May 9 elsieescobar.com/the-e-league...

Not Joe Rogan getting name-dropped during Diddy's trial! We've officially hit "podcasting enters voir dire" on the cultural influence scale. A potential juror straight-up said: "I listen to the Joe Rogan podcast and he had mentioned it." Re: Diddy’s parties www.vulture.com/article/didd...

LAST DAY! The more people submit, the better data we get! I consider this the "census" of podcasting. We must be counted. IT IS NOT A QUICK FILL OUT. Take the time you would spend scrolling on social today to fill this out!!! podcastmarketingacademy.com/podcast-mark...

Remember digging podcasts??? This URL is no longer valid, but it showed up in my history!!! I'm psyched about this. Was a big fan back in the day. BTW, digging podcasts was a call to action and one of the original ways to "promote your podcast"

I’m here for this!

UPDATE 🙏🏽 “As of 5:30pm the fire is 593 acres with 63% containment. All evacuations have been lifted except for 3000 to 3910 Hwy 176. Crews will be wrapping up back burn operations for the day soon and will resume tomorrow. Fire crews will continue to monitor the area overnight”

“The Polk County Fire Marshal's Office says as of 8:00 pm the 176 fire is 30% contained and has burned over 500 acres. Back burning operations are continuing but will be ending soon.” www.wyff4.com/article/evac...

Paradise. S1E7. Extraordinary television. It was heartbreaking to watch a flawed president come through and make the best choices he could because it was the "right thing to do" Surrounded by mostly *very* qualified "good humans" put in impossible situations and even then...

I am hoping that the whole "in like a lion, out like a lamb" thing is true because... The lion is roaring

UPDATE: Tryon Fire: Polk County. 06:31 p.m. EST nixle.us/G57S3

The Polk County #3910Fire is estimated at 400 acres and 0% contained. It’s been a hyperactive day for new wildfires in NC and much of the Southeast.

"According to Deputy Chief Josh Connell with the Tryon Fire Department, as of 5:30 p.m., the fire near U.S. 176 between Tryon and Saluda was between 300 and 500 acres and 0% contained. Multiple fire departments are currently working to control the blaze." www.tryondailybulletin.com/2025/03/01/e...

❗🔥A large wildfire has formed in Polk County, near downtown Tryon, NC... This one is much larger than the Greenville County fire. It is visible on shortwave satellite imagery... The smoke plume is also visible on our radar, too. Fire Weather WARNING continues until 10 PM. NO BURNING, NO SMOKING.

Thank you for having me on! 🥰

Today was 23F with snow flurries. This is my teen. I don’t understand… I wish I would have take a picture of myself because *I* was properly dressed, possibly even a little *extra* dressed

Why do interest rates exist? Do they exist to solely to make money to the lender? Is that the business plan?

Evergreen #archives musings: ◾No, you can't find everything online ▪️(and you won't) ◾Go beyond what you can find. ▪️Ask what *should* be there and is not ◾A break/gap/opening in the record is ▪️An invitation to pause and explore ▪️An opportunity to seek what is relegated to the margins

I found myself listening to a podcast while reading in Spanish. The human brain is astounding. Also...woah on my ADHD brain

The response and support for @latnewsletter.bsky.social have been great. Give now at bit.ly/SupportTLN

There’s a deep sorrow in looking back at an old version of yourself and wishing you had known better. The version of you who: Stayed too long in a relationship that hurt you. Silenced yourself to avoid conflict. Believed love had to be earned. It’s okay to grieve for the person you once were.

Ya’ll have completely destroyed the meaning of ‘BREAKING’ It’s the telephone game, repeated, reshaped, diluted until it means nothing. When everything is ‘BREAKING,’ nothing is. It still triggers panic, keeps us wired. When crisis becomes noise, we lose capacity for choice.

When looking for a show to watch when I read the description and it says “deeply disturbing” that is a hard no. IRL is enough

I really REALLY would love to have a unified inbox for all the social media places that is as easy to process as my email and accessible on desktop, and mobile.  Beeper was this for me when it was in beta.

Happy Birthday to MEEEEEEE. Morning surprise! There is something so magical when your children become the ones that are now leaving you the surprises…(inspired by their Daddy) I love them so

I'm getting a lot of freaked out late-night texts from my friends who are not experienced organizers, looking for advice on how to deal with the constant onslaught of bad news and how to make themselves useful. This is the advice I give.

This is a new one...going on a podcast that pitched me MULTIPLE times, finally said yes. Then, get a pitch to be on the podcast a month later🤨 Mind you, weeks before I got an email thanking me for being on the show. By the same person.

I’m seeing all these funny relatable posts about January being over. As if it’s over. Um. February is my birthday month and this whole year is taking the joy out of my anticipation, and I LOVE MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

“It represents an unprecedented power grab within the U.S. government, and one that directly contradicts the original stated purpose of DOGE” techcrunch.com/2025/01/31/e...

Yikes

LOVE this list. other things that may be of interest to some of you out there: - Medical Reserve Corps. this is how i’ve gotten trained as a narcan lay rescue trainer. i also have opportunities for free first aid/lifesaving trainings this way and public health outreach!

I love when I see a "start saving today!" and the whole message is about buying stuff.

New from me today in Inc: "The question isn’t what you would have done in history’s great moral tests. The question is what you’re doing now, in this test, today. Your transgender colleagues already know the answer. Do you?" https://www.inc.com/joan-westenberg/why-workplace-courage-is-essential-f…

Give me the source. That is all I'm asking. Give me the source.

My dad is following me on Instagram. Y’all. I’m an immigrant, oldest daughter. I left my house when I was 18. I think those of you who know, you know what this means for my IG activity I didn’t even know he had an IG account! What is happening??? 😩

Wow. My mouth was wide open during this whole thing, and I was both laughing and so impressed with the commentary and also…if it didn’t have SNL on the screen, methinks that the people this is aimed for would totally buy, like, for real. Someone build that business rn! youtu.be/jfsEgZAtMyc?...

I'm a dark mode girlie.  Give me a dark mode, and I'll be happy.

They don’t have a computer. They only have an Android device. They also are in a state of housing insecurity. I do not live in the same state as them.

I’ve been helping out a human to get job. They are in very disenfranchised position in all aspects of their life. I’m curious if there is a way that I can set up an online document that can be easily updated by them w/ new info for resume purposes? I’ve become a defacto OG secretary of sorts

Testing a new format based off of my long podcast episodes! Meet The Feed Mini! Quick, under-3-min bites of podcasting news, tips & insights. Still tweaking, but the goal? Share helpful, valuable info fast & maybe get more folks curious about the long form audio podcast 😅 We'll see!

My favorite creators rn are those that present facts, context, history and sources sprinkled with their insights with a little bit of spice of their own personal opinion. Usually subject matter experts.  Why? Because they give me the room to MAKE MY OWN DECISIONS aka THINK & RESEARCH FOR MYSELF
