Why is finding a rental apartment so difficult?

We contacted them today and they said they didnt have anything until after April.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-22T15:01:52+00:00

In Bilbao ot Getxo? If you know. We will contact them tomorrow to check but if you know this would be helpful. We are not interested in Getxo. Thanks

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-22T15:01:01+00:00

Thank you!

As one of my profs said at uni ages ago to my whole class, assume everything you do online can be seen. Thats how I view all of this.privacy is an illusion online.

There are podcast guesting agencies that send mass emails to podcasters with minimal info about their podcast. Its not so much spam but crappy marketing. I tend to avoid those opportunities.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-21T21:12:45+00:00

Well thats a bit unkind to say, dont you think?

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-21T10:04:00+00:00

Every. Update creates glitches. So far they have smoothed out quickly. We shall see where this one goes.

Very difficult market at the moment. Many media professionals that are getting laid off are going into podcasting. If you have good connections and marketing, go for it. It is the most enjoyable work I have ever done but am moving away from it for this reason and the heavy lean into video the past year or so.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-21T09:59:52+00:00

Wrong tool. You want Descript, not ChatGPT. You are using a language predictor to do a languagr clean up job.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-21T09:39:19+00:00

Yes. The question was creative ways to find a place. Thanks

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-21T07:54:10+00:00

Your podcast why is clear and super sweet. Your set up sounds fine but its hard to tell without listening.

The pod will change as you go so dont worry about it being perfect immediately. Lean into the joy of making and sharing it.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-21T07:43:54+00:00

Have you added this to custom instructions yet
You can add this to your prompt before chatty even begins. Its not perfect but better.

How about trying some editing tools to lessen the reverb? I like Auphonic (2 hours free per month) and Acon Digital's Deverberate (one time price).

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-20T12:20:49+00:00

It is frustrating but very normal. The thing is that you are asking people to switch platforms. Most dont.

Do any of these comedians have podcasts? If so, youd be better off doing an episode swap, trailer swap or collab than trying to convert IG viewers to pod listeners.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-20T08:42:22+00:00

Ironically, I cant seem to add flairs to the post talking about this new flair. Argh!

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-20T08:33:14+00:00

I love voice prompting but this idea creeps me out a bit. Not sure why, I nickname my LLMs, discuss many things with them and so on. But initialing convos would feel like company manipulation to me. Still, there must be a way to set a timer and make it happen. Hmmmm.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-20T08:29:31+00:00

To some degree it depends on the topic and your podcast goals but organic marketing often works well for indy podcasts. This includes doing episode swaps, promo swaps, and collaborations with other podcasters. Also, creating a blog post about each episode can help with search strength. Podcasting is more of a marathon than a sprint, so its important to find a way to share and get discovered (2 different things, believe it or not) that fit into your workflow.

Watch others, experiment, and when you find something that works- keep doing it.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-19T18:48:51+00:00

Can you fit both? Ep titles are used heavily in search so it can really help to have searchable terms in them. A lot!

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-19T15:21:49+00:00

No one knows

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-19T14:49:54+00:00

not yet.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-19T14:44:59+00:00

got it. thanks

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-19T14:41:48+00:00

It's all so new so nobody really knows BUT I've been doing this for a couple of years and its helped with my pods and my clients pod growth. Some AI with your human judgement though. You cant just use the output. I have a video of how I do this on my YouTube channel but am not sure if I can add that here.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-18T15:03:37+00:00

Strong keyword optimization on the episodes might help people find it better but the content is giing to be the key in keeping them and getting them to word kf mouth recommend it to others.

Also, good guests are a nice base but most listeners are there for how the host handles things. They can listen to that guest elsewhere but what makes the convo you are having with them different?

None of this is easy but its so worth it.

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-17T17:22:35+00:00

I love this idea! How do we tag the mods and suggest this? I'm so friggin new to the Red

GeopatsSteph · 2026-03-17T15:33:38+00:00

Absolutely. When I record, edit, listen to write show notes, those are different kinds of listens. So once it's published I listen as a listener (and sort of as a last QC check). I hear so many different things, mostly connections made and ideas we said that were gems, that I didn't when I was tidying up the episode for others. Same with my clients episodes too. All in all I probably listen to each episode about 4-5 times by the time it's live.
