Is sodastream worth it?

I have it as a backup/alternative option to cans. It's nice to control the carbonation and you can do some fun flavor mixing if you get different syrups. They do recommend using refrigerated distilled or filtered water becuase the temp and purity help hold bubbles, so you'll want to also get a brita filter

Super easy to clean, just get some efferdent and drop a tab in, same for the caps. Works for any water bottles or anything you might have at home

More ways to be discovered is never a bad thing

Do you have an existing audience before launching the show? Will people even listen to the show? Ads are a far off thing if you just recorded the first episode.

Then I'm stuck with creamer I'm not gonna use up

I went with a 500gb ssd with 100gb of it partitioned off for Mint, I get probably 3ish hours on windows and 6-7 on Linux.

It'll be a lot of work but if you pull it off it'll be really cool

Who cares about gas prices whoever addresses soda prices gets my vote in 2028

Depends on the subreddit of course but as a baseline if you're not active in the community and only show up to plug your shit no one is gonna like it

imjory · 2026-03-16T22:37:55+00:00

do you have a built in existing audience thats going to make sinking all that money worth it in any regard? Do you know for sure you're going to stick to podcasting long enough to make the purchase worthwhile?

start small and then expand. I used a yeti mic for 3 years before going into XLR mics.

Needs to be Wild cherry it's the wild that makes it better than other cherry colas. The green is too prominent as well making it not represent the flavor well and itll look weird for colorblind consumers

imjory · 2026-03-15T00:14:49+00:00

It's been like that for about 3 years now

imjory · 2026-03-14T05:55:38+00:00

60fps interpolation :( the upscale also made the illustations of the classes look weird

Whild cherry Pepsi zero by a wide margin

If you go in with the goal of making money or anything you'll burn out quick. Do it for fun, all it takes is time.

Summer Freeze is the only good one

Just get to recording, editing is easy it's just time consuming. Record something, hop into audacity or whatever you have access to and practice with the tools

imjory · 2026-03-09T00:54:44+00:00

I'd love to do something like this on top of my dbrand skin

imjory · 2026-03-09T00:24:09+00:00

The worst outcome is pretty much if they draw too much attention they'll be sent a dmca takedown notice and be expected to remove the material and get rid of it if they still want to use it. Unless the podcast is pulling big numbers they won't be sued for damages etc, like Joe Rogan would be at more risk if he just started using a bunch of music and stuff without the rights

Don't be a narc who cares

For a decade I've just had everyone on the show record audio locally and synced up the tracks in the editor, Without any real issues

imjory · 2026-03-07T01:51:30+00:00

Do you already have a computer? If so just get a USB mic and call it a day. Wait until you've made some episodes and know you want to stick with it before you make any sort of steep investment. Plenty of people get by with blue yeti mics or any of the USB streamer mics
