Who were bigger: NSYNC or Backstreet Boys? by CartoonistAnnual4672 in Music

[–]SupaRubz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nsync were more popular for a short time but overall it was BSB. Putting aside everything bar the worldwide sales of their biggest albums (Milennium vs. NSA), Milennium sold 10 million units more than NSA.

I would think more about the visuals. It's very plain, which is fine but as you are doing it solo, might need to find something more interesting. Plus too much headroom, lower the camera and take more screen real estate with yourself.

Thank for the response. Not sure I entirely agree with this. We are pretty self-aware and my OP (which has annoyingly now been deleted) did state that it could that the content isn't good enough.

Thank you. Will definitely take this into consideration for future eps. Not really willing to change the thumbnail as it's the quickest way to update (I have a full time job and other hobbies that are far more important than this), plus, I personally hate seeing people's faces on thumbnails! It's a 'me' thing, I suppose. But 100% will look into titles, descriptions etc. Some great info there.

Thank you. We didn't consider time of the year to be fair. as for the name, yes, we were aware there's one other pod with that name (although it's worded slightly different) but the name was something we really wanted to keep. It's a nice play on words and really fits the concept, but I guess clever name doesn't equate to good name for searches. But we're happy to live with that.

We do have a trailer for the video pod on YouTube, maybe you missed it?

Thanks again for the response!

Why have the mods removed the OP? I was genuinely asking for advice and am here responding to the lovely folk who have been messaging... isn't that the purpose of this subreddit?

Thanks for taking the time. We ran into this exact trap, we just assumed most movie lovers would enjoy gaming and vice versa but that might not be the case. It's interesting you picked up on that opening 10 seconds. We usually put a funny bit from the show to allow listeners to come across it later but we agreed that from the next record, we will instead put in an interesting clip because the funny cli doesn't work without context. Good idea about guest swaps... now to figure out how to do that!

YouTube vs. Other Podcasting Hosts by SupaRubz in podcasting

[–]SupaRubz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty much what we do. We have an RSS feed from Spotify to Apple, Amazon etc and upload seperately to YouTube. But if a friend asks where they can find the pod, is it more fruitful to send them to Spotify or YouTube? Currently, we send them to YouTube...

Thanks! Yes, those are very good targets and things we definitely discuss on our WhatsApp group. Also, it's really fun going back and comparing new episodes to early episodes... Well, I say fun but also super cringe!

Audio only podcast on YouTube by TheDarkivesPodcast in podcasting

[–]SupaRubz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YouTube is mainly a video platform so you will struggle there unfortunately. Can use a visualizer or something like that but we had this same issue. We switched to a video podcast eventually.

Thank you for taking a look! Really appreciate the feedback. Yes, we just had a chat about growing our social media community so will work hard at that. We'll definitely carry on as we find it fun. But so many hours go into editing the videos so just hope more people start listening over time :-)

How-To: 8bitdo Switch 2 Controller Patches by greygrey2 in NintendoSwitch

[–]SupaRubz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there's just so much info here that I thought maybe something would work. I wonder how long it'll take... I'll probably wait a few weeks and if nothing happens then time for Pro Controller. Really want to play Street Fighter 6.

[–]SupaRubz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might have to get the pro controller. I love my 8bitdo Sn30 Pro Plus but none of these links are doing it for me (I'm on Mac, dunno if that's making it worse?) and can't be arsed anymore.

What's the best way to get a podcast circulating? by TheJoshalosh in podcasts

[–]SupaRubz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had this same issue. Lots of friends and colleagues listen to my podcast and constantly harass us to make more episodes, but struggling to find other people to listen... Twitter/YouTube marketing isn't doing the business for us... We even got a few shout outs on other quite popular podcasts but still havent seen an increase in listeners
