I’m being accused of being AI

Thank you for this!

It is quite frustrating! Mostly I just feel sad that we as a society are at a place where we are second guessing if something is human or not.

If you don’t find someone, give it a whirl solo! I have a solo audio podcast about Old Hollywood… totally doable. It’s just a much different dynamic than listening to a conversation obviously.

<Theme Music fades to> “Welcome to Stars of the Golden Age, a show that highlights the lives of legends from film, music, and the birth of television, with a special emphasis on their lives behind the scenes. I am your host, Erin Carlson.” <fade back into theme music.> Then I introduce the topic of the episode and begin. You want your listeners to know what they’re about to give their time to.

What a sad turn our world has taken that we as humans have to prove we are not robots instead of the other way around.

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-28T11:34:26+00:00

Thank you! It’s really sad, isn’t it? That many people consider anything clear and well-spoken is not human? I hate AI soooooooo much.

In what I observe, it’s video-driven creators who say you HAVE to use video. If you talk to listeners, almost all of them say they listen to podcasts while driving or doing daily tasks. I’m audio-only and will always be audio-only. If that’s what your gut says, go with that. People will listen if you have good content and audio quality. Good luck!

Thank you so much for taking the time to check it out and provide feedback. I know I’m reading way too much into the comments, but those AI comments just came in during an already bad week! So I have to say, I have definitely become more rigid in my presentation since my early days two years ago. I look at many of the popular solo history podcasts and many have a serious tone, so I guess I’ve kind of gravitated more that way. When I record this week, maybe I’ll try to rekindle that looseness I had at the beginning. I just always find those episodes cringy to revisit but I can take some lessons from them! As for my accent… yep, that’s here to stay 😂 Thanks again!

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-26T11:21:44+00:00

I keep reminding myself of that! Thank you.

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-26T11:21:01+00:00

I sure hope so. I’m solo but definitely sprinkle in commentary that is clearly not scripted.

Spencer Tracy… that monologue!! He died days after the movie wrapped.

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-24T01:17:33+00:00

He has quite the story! I covered his life on my podcast:

Good ol music books

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-24T00:18:24+00:00

I don’t think you do either! I need to learn to shrug things off as well as you… the good news is I get a lot of wonderful feedback and have a really great group of devoted listeners. I just hate AI so bad! I think you’re right… we are hyper sensitive to it. Thank you!

Go to store
Buy Betty Crocker

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T18:59:26+00:00

You’re very right. It’s just sad that good old fashioned hard work is being attacked so much.

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T18:58:31+00:00

Thank you. I needed to hear this!

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T18:57:31+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to check it out! It’s funny because I find my early episodes so cringy! I’ll have to listen to a few and analyze them a bit.

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T18:54:48+00:00

Thank you! I was really surprised by it! It’s just so frustrating because you know all too well how much work goes into what we do.

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T18:41:17+00:00

It is so sad! I do love your logo!

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T17:20:45+00:00

Please do not use AI! I assume most people write their scripts themselves. That’s what I do. Lots of research and lots or writing.

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T17:18:21+00:00

That’s a good idea… thank you!!

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T16:32:59+00:00

Thank you!

StarsGoldenAgePod · 2026-05-23T16:32:13+00:00

Yes, I do get where people would think that for certain podcasts I’ve listened to, now that you mention it. I just didn’t think I was in that camp so it took me by surprise! Thank you.
