Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Sunil, the builder behind PodBanter. Like most of you, I have an unholy graveyard of unread 40-page PDFs, research papers, and market reports haunting my downloads folder. Traditional AI summarizers just spit out another wall of bullet points that nobody actually wants to read. People don't want more text on a screen—they want to consume information while commuting, walking their dog, or working out. So I built PodBanter (https://podbanter.com) with three principles: 1. **True Dual-Host Chemistry:** Instead of a monotone voice reading a script, two contrasting AI co-hosts banter, crack jokes, disagree, and break down complex concepts with hilarious analogies. 2. **"Join The Show" (Voice Interruption):** While listening with headphones on your walk, tap the mic to ask a question mid-episode. The hosts pause, answer you conversationally in character, and smoothly resume the show. 3. **Private RSS Feeds:** Seamlessly pipe your generated episodes into Apple Podcasts or Spotify so your readings are waiting in your normal podcast queue. We’re offering free trial generations for everyone checking it out today! I’d love to hear your feedback on the vocal chemistry, the vibes (Comedy Roast vs. ELI5 vs. Deep Tech), and what documents you'd love to listen to! 🎙️

What is the most unreadable PDF or paper currently haunting your downloads folder?

Hey Product Hunt community!

We all have that one 48-page research paper, dense market report, or company whitepaper that has been sitting in our "Read Later" bookmarks for 6 months.

When building PodBanter, we realized the problem isn't that summaries are too short it's that reading on a screen after a long day of work feels like a chore.

If you could turn ONE boring document into a hilarious 5-minute podcast episode you could finish on your morning walk, what topic or document would it be?
