Podcast Marketing Trends Explained: Data-Driven Podcast Growth Strategies
What Everyone’s Getting Wrong About Video Podcasting & YouTube | Podcast Strategy
Video is changing podcasting, probably forever and probably in ways we can’t predict. But while conversations and debates about the risks and upsides to creators as well as the industry as a whole are inescapable right now, they all seem to be missing the key point: That this isn’t a conversation about different consumption mediums and file delivery formats.It’s a conversation about YouTube as a platform, and the power, influence, and magnetism it exerts on every person on the internet.📊 What did you think of this episode?

It's episode 100 time but don't worry, Adam's not being weird about it at all.

An Example of How Conversations With My Night Brain Will Sound
In this example episode of Conversations with My Night Brain, I introduce Monica, an AI voice generated by Descript, as my first guest. Monica shares insights into the unique concerns an AI might have, such as data integrity, ethical implications, and continuous learning. The conversation also delves into Monica’s interests outside of AI concerns, with the rapid fire round of questions that I ask all my guests. Monica provides practical advice for future podcast guests, and highlights the potential of modern AI tools.Obviously a conversation with a human will be much more natural sounding, more fr...

Bible Encounters
Lesson 16: Ancient Warrior God view
I admit that this view is really going to mess with you. It messes with me. Does that necessarily mean it's wrong though? Maybe not. In this view, Peter Enns, Abram S. Clemens professor of biblical studies at Eastern University, will argue that the Joshua conquest account describes how Israel viewed God but not necessarily what Israel did or what God told them to do. Instead, Enns argues a theological point is made regarding what it means to be a member of God's people (i.e. Rahab and Achan). Brace yourselves guys, this will make you uncomfortable.
