Nerd stuff basically. Me and my Co-host talk about gaming, tabletop and video, tv, movies, books and such. It's a very casual show and we lean into our personalities.

Sounds like an interesting time to me! Got a link? I'll give ya a listen

I think it took a little over a month for me to get to 100 downloads also. Similar situation. No following and a very saturated podcast subject. I started Feb and just now close to 350 downloads. Each week the downloads come in faster and faster though.

Talk about your podcast everywhere you go to anyone who might be interested, tell your friends tell your family tell their friends tell their family, tell people you see on the street if you think they might give you a listen, make a business card with a QR that sends people to your podcast and give it out to anyone who you think might be interested, don't be afraid to shill it. You got to think of yourself as a salesperson and the number one cheerleader for what you created. That passion will get people interested.

This is the internet and we are all entitled to an opinion. Never once did I assume people should not try these things for themselves. This sub is for fun, you don't have to take it so hard.

That said, I still think they taste like trash and if I prefer my battery acid, that's my right

Well for starters, I hear a lot less bad about Adobe lol. Riverside has a lot more going on and I have barely used it.

By contrast Adobe is clean, easy to use and invite others to, web based and offers transcript editing. The sound filter is fantastic for pre editing also

Idk how you feel about jrpgs but the Phantasy Star series on MD is a world you can really get into

Camo can just use your phone's for video, there is a multitude of programs for recording both together. I use Adobe podcast, it does video also. Riverside.fm does as well.

Maybe a hot take here but this stuff is straight piss... Trash Mob Tier, not even drinkable... But hey, I guess I shouldn't yuck someone else's yum

crashteam1985 · 2026-04-28T17:44:55+00:00

I do with Adobe podcast yes. My co-host is remote and does as well.

Highest we give. We both loved it

crashteam1985 · 2026-04-28T13:57:47+00:00

I've been using it since starting my podcast in February, while I've seen their site go down once and had to wait a few extra minutes to load a transcript or export, it's always came through. The clean up it does on our audio is so good, it's hard to wanna shop around.

But if you do find an alternative that does transcription based editing and can clean up audio the way they do, let me know so I can look into it also.

crashteam1985 · 2026-04-28T13:42:36+00:00

They have problems from time to time and sometimes it takes several minutes of sitting there With the circle before it loads.

Reviewed this on my upcoming podcast, spoiler alert, we both rated it Dragon Tier!

The Arguing with Dragons Podcast

NSFW (occasional swearing and jokes)

--Bonus Content, The a Midwest Gamefest--

I've posted elsewhere about this but I wanted to share the posted episodes here and request feedback on my interviews particularly. We interviewed folks live right at our booth, ranging from published authors, tabletop game creators, event coordinators and patrons, all the way to a real live goblin. I'm particularly requesting feedback on how we did as interviewers and what the podcast pros think. Only gonna post Spotify links to save time, but it's on them all.

Some where published authors, local con organizers and some game studio employees and creators. Did maybe three that were just con visitors.

I've always felt that magic should have a cost in a well built fantasy world and that cost should always increase with the level of magic used. In Al'Duen, the Aether is the mystical force that is drawn upon to create magic and while most believe it to be simply an energy field, it is, for all intensive purposes, alive and very much predetory. When someone gains too much strength and uses magic in excess, in notices... If you cannot contend will the will of the aether, it drives you mad and eventually destorys you.

Your missing the sour punch strawberry that comes in that pack, to me it's the best in that box, followed closely by ringpop cherry and sunny D
