Nobody will mind you adding a minute or two of sponsors. It will introduce people to new bitcoin businesses. And it will hopefully help support your show.

No expertise at all in the production of radio shows/podcasts, simply a dedicated listener.

Seems to me that having quality sponsors would be totally within keeping of the spirit of the show, the " value for value" model may work in another place in another time, but lets keep it real, this is Bitcoin.

4 x 30 second spots in a +- 45 minute show would be totally realistic to me.

Great show, love that you guys are doing this.

Just an FYI, I went to donate some BTC and all of your 'fund' buttons say they are for show 2. Now I appreciated them all, but it was the last one that got me to donate to you. If you are using this as a measure of what to talk to that people like, know that my recent donation was for show 5!

It's actually coming through properly - I just got three donations for Episode 5, but I forgot to change the label when I was making the buttons - The address is actually correct.

And we are tracking it as a metric, it's pretty neat that it's a metric and money at once.  Someone even sent a compliment with .01337 - Made me smile.

Really good show. Is the voice in the beginning Stephanie from Porc therapy?
You should have her on in one show. Think she know a thing or two about bitcoins

Yes it is, and I just spoke with her today about joining the host rotation so we'll actually be dropping her as the voice in the intro (because introducing yourself is a bit like taking yourself on a date - not exactly cool)

Had the great good fortune and pleasure to listen to all 5 episodes today.

Simply awesome in production and content, informative, entertaining and right on point, particularly enjoyed the "Andreas M. Antonopoulos" segment and hope he continues to contribute his very incisive comments.

All in all, a great effort and a great show, props to the three of you, loved the intros, not sure if I'm a Geek or a Freak, but it seems the only option is to get in, sit down, shut up and hang on, this going to be wild.

Thank you for your comments NedKLee, I'm glad you enjoyed the first week of shows they were a whirlwind to make!   

So here's a question - We're adding two sponsor slots to the show, each one 30 seconds that we produce in-house (Stephanie from Porctherapy writes and voices them), on bitcoin businesses.  There will be 1 minute total sponsor content in the 30-40 minute show used like bumpers between topics, one in the news and one in scuttlebutt. 

Would that make you like the show less?  We're being very picky about our sponsors, and there are so many cool bitcoin businesses it seems like we'll get to pick who we work with especially since we're funded.  I had a friend of mine who really hated the idea and it hadn't even occured to me that people might react negatively to it.

This weeks sponsors are BitcoinStore.com and FoxyCart.com

Thanks everybody!  We're having a great time doing the show

but....

I am not having a great time with the RSS and podcast feed thing, I've emailed Soundcloud and asked them to turn it on, paid for a subscription with libsyn and set up a feed that way and for SOME reason it is still not working. 

 I desperately hope to have it working by Mondays show, but right now I put my faith in Soundcloud to get back to me and enable us for podcast enclosures or a Libsyn ninja to appear out of the night and rescue me.


Any ninjas?

Andreas here,

Thank you for the support!

Our producer, host and leader Adam B Levine has done an incredible job with this show and with his entrepreneurial skills secured funding to make it last for at least a year. Having a high-quality and professionally produced show is critical for the success of bitcoin. I will continue to support the effort wholeheartedly.

Andreas

Andreas,

You did an awesome job! I just love the show keep up the good work fellas.

Great first show!! Two suggestions:
1. Make it weekly instead of daily.
2. Please add it to Stitcher Radio: that's the app we use to listen to all our podcasts.
Thanks, and keep up the great work!
I will add it to sticher radio, I have an unreal backlog of things to do - The editing schedule for these early daily shows is absolutely brutal.   If I was paying myself, we'd be broke.
That's one reason why it would be better to do a weekly rather than a daily.

Ive now listened to all the shows, some good material, esp in the last 2 shows. I like the intro music but the sudden shouting and screaming in the music spots esp for "the daily bitcoin news" is nerving and ruins it.

Also I find the intro is too long. Ive taken to jumping the first 1-2 minutes to avoid it. Make the intro too long and that's what people do, so it defeats the object.





Thank you for your feedback!  This week was about getting the shows out while finding the funding to do something this crazy thing for a long time - We were successful in both things, so this coming week is about two things
- Improving the quality of the content
- Spreading the word

Part of that is looking at all our clips and seeing how they've worked.  I already shortened the intro once, I'm used to doing a weekly show that is longer so I think that is more appropriate.  I'll be curious for your feedback after Monday's episode.

Also, I've now had time to update all the relevant subscription and feed information instead of just pointing ya'll to the specific audio file, see below

Daily Best-of-the-news On Bitcoin from around the web, both positive and negative.

http://www.thedailybitcoin.com

This has been one heck of a week, this is our fifth show produced in five days and doing nearly all the technical work myself (Adam B. Levine) and then doing the shows as well has been quite a feat, but it's also been incredibly fun and absolutely exhilarating.

Thank you VERY MUCH for listening to our brand new project, the enthusiastic response has led us to decide that this is a worthwhile format that we intend to continue for at least the rest of the year. The hosts may change at times (Eli is getting married and going on a honeymoon next month!) but the point is this: Complicated topics need explanation, and it's not a one-time conversation that provides the whole picture.

Over the weeks and months to come, we'll be improving the quality of the show further and rolling out the Weekly Bitcoin show.

 I am actively looking for those who would like to be audio journalists to work with me on that project - If you are interested, please email me at [email protected]. You do not need experience, or technical expertise - You just need to believe that most media reporting is unacceptably poor quality, and the want to change that for the better.

If that's you, this is your opportunity - Don't miss out.

To everyone, please share this with your friends and relatives and thank you for helping make The Daily Bitcoin show such a success in its first week.

Wow great show to end the week. Really liked to hear what the guest had to say. Lot of good points about bitcoin exchanges being ran by people who aren't really well equipped to run an exchange.   Hopefully this improves as time goes on.

Thank you!  The show will be even better next week as I hand off the editing to someone dedicated to the task and can focus more on the journalistic aspects

I never thought this excuse was good when others use it, but honestly I just haven't had the time to do all the stuff that needs doing
I've heard that one reason to start your own business is because you hate sleep.

Is tonight the episode about how the network could be attacked?

Yes tonights show I'm finishing up now is our first discussion segment, and it's entitled "Let's Kill Bitcoin!".  We're also featuring an interview with Andreas M. Antonopoulos, a security & decentralized systems expert to explain in detail about why Mt. Gox can't really be fixed, and how it differs from a functional model.  It's a pretty scathing critique to my ears, we offered Mt. Gox the second half of the show to respond but they declined.
