Too Embarrassed To Ask - Teaser

Update: We also got some great coverage from Ashley Carman at the Verge! --- @brianmcc and I have been hosting experimental Clubhouse Rooms and Twitter Spaces for a few months discussing segments from his Techmeme Ride Home show. This filled a need for me since ever time I listened to his show, I wanted to go deeper into the day's tech news — but wasn't sure how to do that. After a few iterations, we soon realized that our conversations were of interest to a broader audience and started publishing them to the Techmeme Ride Home feed. Soon, it became clear that these shows were somehow just as — if not more — popular than the daily shows. There was something here! After we talked to other folks like @mattnavarra and @martinsfp who'd been hosting their own quality rooms and spaces, we decided that there was too much value in these conversations to let them only remain accessible to those who could show up for the live experience. We shared our tips for how to record these live, social audio experiences and then offered to aggregate them into a collected feed — and thus SpaceCasts was born! We're still exploring what works here — but rather than waiting for the platforms to launch proper recording and syndication, we've decided to rush ahead and see if we can help nudge their strategy in this direction. We're eager to help and work with other folks who are convening brilliant conversations on social audio platforms and who may be either intimidated by, or simply not be interested in, setting up their own bespoke podcasts. It's a heavy lift to get any podcast off the ground, and so we're levering Brian's background and expertise to accelerate this process. If this sounds like you or someone you know and you think they should contribute a SpaceCast, have them submit here: https://www.ridehome.info/p/spaces/ And if you want a taste of what you can expect, here's a recent episode in which we discussed the Streaming Wars and Tesla! If you want to hear more about how this came to be, here's a little more information from me! https://racket.com/chris/rbE82 Hope you guys love it!

You don’t have to spin up your own podcast feed to let your Clubhouse rooms and Twitter spaces live on. The conversation DOESNT have to die in the room where it happens. If you've done a Room or a Space, send it our way. If you can record it (we'll show you how) we'll publish it with other great rooms and spaces from other great creators. Our audiences will overlap and we can promote each other. And yes, we're selling ads against this content, so we don't have to wait for Clubhouse and Twitter to monetize the work we are doing.

This is super interesting. I host three rooms each week in Spaces. I just turned one of them into a podcast. It's called All Things Audio where my co-host and I share the latest news about social audio with our commentary and then we open a discussion with our listeners. @chrismessina, can I apply for that one into your collective? Or because it's already a podcast, would you not be interested in it?

Looks awesome; very excited to check it out! Congrats on the launch!@brianmcc I can see these being super popular for content creators.

@brianmcc Congratulations on launching your new podcast. Sorry to reach you cold like this. I think what I'm working on will provide value for you, so I thought I'd take a chance. It looks like this: https://castpie.com/spacecasts. I will love to get your thoughts on it if you think it'd be helpful for SpaceCasts.

I thought it was against Clubhouse terms and conditions to record a room?

Pretty cool! I always wanted to listen to these spaces. I can't join most of them because of timezone. Congrats!
