Been thinking about this recently as I would like to add occasional Features or interviews to @SpecNewsPod … what would you like in a feature on a tech podcast? So far everything we do is tightly scripted.

The hosts want us to believe what they don't know, Rogers says. There's a shocking amount of this kind of drivel on the tech podcasts.The hosts fill time with whatever pops into their heads about what they read on their favorite news app that morning. businessinsider.com/tech-pod…

All these profiles of companies and interviews with founders imply that even a dummy like me could learn the secrets of engineering a unicorn or disrupting a market."

Having problems sending out a newsletter for @SpecNewsPod. It’s very quickly gone from “oh no we’d need a paid MailChimp plan” to “huh Send In Blue have declined us” to “how about Ghost? It’s OSS” to “self host Ghost?” to - uh - “let’s build our own solution”
