Tl:dl

Thanks so much for hunting us @chrismessina !! Hey PH! I'm really excited to be sharing TL;DL with you all! @michael_li3 and I have been working on this for a while now but we didn't want to launch until we were 1000% sure that we would be using the product regularly. And we think it's ready! TL;DL is a podcast app that's breaking away from the traditional concept of what a podcast player is supposed to be. The main way to consume new audio content on TL;DL is the feed where you don't necessarily find new episodes but instead find bookmarks of podcast episodes made by your friends or picked by us. You can also easily make bookmarks on TL;DL by searching for any podcast show you want to listen to. You can also make bookmarks from other podcast apps like Apple Podcasts, Castro, Overcast, etc. using TL;DL's share extension! Hope you like the app, we're just getting started and still have a lot of things planned for the product. Feel free to ask me any questions/hit me up with feedback. Wooo!

Did you just used comic sans?

@vd_thatte LOVE THIS. I would absolutely use this to make it easier to find interesting podcasts. I envision a future where you can see what your friends and even influencers are listening to, which would certainly make it easier to identify the great, specific episodes. This seems like a product that requires network effects to kick in before it becomes part of people's habits. How do you think people will get "hooked" on the product/this way of consuming and tracking podcasts before they have the benefit of seeing what a lot of other people they care about are listening to?

The podcast version of "try before you buy", love it !

Is this coming on Android? 😳

Only works in US?

I spent 12 years evaluating thousands of apps at my previous gig. This is honestly the best Podcast tool to come along in years. Great intuitive design - game changer.
