1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,860 Delta Sierra Charlie 214 and good morning everybody. This is the daily source code 2 00:00:05,860 --> 00:00:09,720 It's out. I'm curry coming to you from San Francisco. It is late 3 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:15,860 The time is a quarter to one. Actually, it's that's not even that late considering how late I've been 4 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:22,580 How late I've been up and working this living on all sides of the clock here 5 00:00:22,580 --> 00:00:26,200 It's my last evening in San Francisco tomorrow. I return home 6 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:32,680 Back to Gilford back to Curry Cottage. Can't wait to see the girls again. And you know 7 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:37,120 I I decided for two reasons actually that I would just do another 8 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:43,720 Talking podcast and we'd roll out any music or anything. The main reason being that my microphone is almost out of juice 9 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,960 I had one extra reserve battery for the transmitter and 10 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:53,880 Didn't have one for the receiver now. I have a flashing red light which means it could be good for 30 minutes 11 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:58,320 It could be good for 15 minutes. I'm not quite sure. So if all of a sudden we just 12 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:04,040 Fizzle out. Well, then you'll know what happened and then you'll be hearing from me again on Wednesday when I'm back home 13 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,740 So I have lots of great things 14 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,000 Going on here lots of good news. I still can't give you 15 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,680 The full-dam announcement because what we just want announced things properly 16 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:21,200 But I can tell you that I got an apartment here in San Francisco because it's gonna be just like the oil rig 17 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,480 I think I talked to you about that 18 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,120 Yesterday on the San Francisco sound seeing tour of union square 19 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:34,160 I'll be it'll kind of you had to be like an oil rig, you know two three weeks off one week on and 20 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,880 What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna get a duplicate set up of gear at the apartment here in San Francisco 21 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,560 I guess we should give it a name 22 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,000 Well, let me why don't we call it the curry condo. There you go 23 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,520 24th floor towering over the streets of San Francisco. I've got the 24 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,840 The movie view if you will the motion picture view.

It stands for daily shoulder complaint 31 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:22,480 so 32 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:27,720 Actually the shoulder is not what's bothering me. It's it's still my hand my fingers my 33 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,360 My index finger and my thumb of my left left hand 34 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,880 They just go numb 35 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:35,880 Whenever there's too much 36 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:41,280 Yeah, whenever I've just done too much to my hand. I guess hey, it's the left hand, okay? All right 37 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,080 So I only use that for flying actually had dinner 38 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,320 The other night with some friends 39 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:52,800 One of the who's a neurologist a doctor and I had mentioned anything and then one of our tablemates said well, you know 40 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:58,240 Adam's had this issue with his with his hand and he immediately grabbed my my hand and 41 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,680 Exert some pressure on my wrist and he said it's carpal tunnel syndrome. I said it way to make it 42 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,600 You know, I've had all these people telling me that because of the nerve in the back of my 43 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,440 You know my shoulder blades that it's pinching off a nerve and he said yeah 44 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,880 Well, that's kind of what carpal tunnel syndrome is. I said oh, well 45 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:20,080 That's nice. Well, what kind of do about it? He said well you have to come to the office and we'll do five minutes of tests in the morning 46 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,320 I wanted you might have to have a splint on it or something like whoa, hold on a second 47 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,920 So I guess when I get back to to the cottage 48 00:03:27,920 --> 00:03:33,520 I'll make an appointment with with the doctor and I'll go see if it's a carpal tunnel syndrome 49 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,400 It's it's not horrible, but whenever I do something 50 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,680 Whenever I yeah, it just depends on what position I'm holding my my hand in 51 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:49,760 But again, I've gotten so many emails from some from mainly pilots who who have this this particular issue 52 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,680 Also people who write motor cross 53 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:58,000 So I guess you know as you get older you just mess around with your body enough and shit starts to break and fall apart 54 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,160 And that's exactly what's starting to happen to me 55 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:05,360 But that cannot ruin my mood my friends because we have so much cool stuff going on 56 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,600 We're hiring people out here in San Francisco. That's all part of the damage 57 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:14,080 We'll be making because we've got an office that that we're going to be opening up here. I am 58 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,960 Really really really pumped because the East Coast guys are coming in town 59 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,720 We are bringing the new media the real public radio 60 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,640 We're bringing it to town. We're going to have a lot of fun. I can tell you that and of course 61 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,720 Being out in San Francisco means we have access to all kinds of great talent 62 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,840 Who can really start to help us on the technological front 63 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:40,240 Particularly with with bandwidth man. I've learned so much already about bandwidth my god 64 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,760 Let me tell you 65 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,760 bandwidth is not free okay 66 00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:50,160 When once you get above a certain level and of course there are all kinds of different hosting solutions 67 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:55,280 Who claim to give you unlimited bandwidth and you can get unlimited bandwidth to an extent 68 00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:01,360 But if you've got a podcast for instance if you're featured on the pod finder in iTunes 69 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:06,960 We actually offer hosting and feed management to anyone that we that we profile on the pod finder 70 00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:09,120 If you haven't heard the pod finder by the way 71 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,240 The new one is being released today episode number three 72 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,360 You know, we have just 73 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:20,000 Thousands tens of thousands of people who want to go check out the show and subscribe to it and 74 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:26,320 Well, either you'll run out of your bandwidth a lotment or your pipe will just be completely flooded. So it does you know 75 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,320 There is some cost to all of this and 76 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:36,320 What we're gonna have to do is we're gonna have to figure out how to move people more towards subscribing to these podcasts instead of trying to get them 77 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:41,520 You know in real time otherwise, you know, we're gonna run into some real real issues here some real problems 78 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:48,240 This by the way is exactly what killed the streaming business now podcasting of course is very different in that 79 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,760 It's a mobile concept right you take it with you and you don't just let you don't have to listen to it 80 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,800 Locked into your computer but people are so enthralled by what's going on 81 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:05,120 They're loving these podcasts so much that you know in fact some people actually will fill in the date for the source code like today is 82 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:12,400 DSC-2005-07-26 and they'll just keep hitting refresh until the show comes online 83 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:21,760 But that was never really the concept and you know the concept was even if you have just a little bitty pipe and you know 84 00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:23,840 Almost no no real 85 00:06:23,840 --> 00:06:25,840 Speed of bandwidth at all 86 00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:30,240 It doesn't matter because the podcast and you subscribe to it once it's available 87 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:38,480 It starts sucking it in slowly or fast whatever it is and then when it's in it, you know your iPodor or your pod catch or your iTunes will say 88 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,880 Oh, I've got a new show and that's when you play it 89 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:46,400 So we're gonna have to work on some of this stuff. Otherwise, you know, I can't mention any any 90 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,760 Shows anymore if I mentioned a podcast that doesn't have proper hosting 91 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:55,680 They're off the air, you know, and so that's that's a fucking bummer and everybody has to be able to participate. So 92 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,720 Excuse me 93 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:05,440 So working on all kinds of different strategies for that now I know that bit torrent would be a great solution 94 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:07,840 But you know 95 00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:13,200 There is I don't think any way that that iTunes is going to integrate bit torrent for quite a while 96 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,440 And not that the engineers or the business people wouldn't want to do it and in fact 97 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,680 We discussed bit torrent very openly at Apple during this past trip 98 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,800 The big problem of course is Hollywood because the minute you say peer to peer Hollywood freaks out 99 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:32,000 You know, oh well peer to peer equals theft. That's basically what what Hollywood thinks so 100 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:39,680 We're gonna have to come up with some really smart ways to route around that issue and if it's up to us at Pod Show 101 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,840 We're going to 102 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,880 Definitely make sure that the small independent podcaster 103 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:52,000 Has that bandwidth and you know you shouldn't have to you know you shouldn't have to pay an arm in a legboard if at all 104 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,920 You know and it does come down to money. This is not free stuff, you know 105 00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:01,280 Especially now that we've got the listeners on the march the hundred million listener march. It's happening 106 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,280 They're on their way. They're coming 107 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,440 Excuse me. It's oh, hold on let me just have a sip of water 108 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,400 Something stuck there 109 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:17,440 Once again a nice five dollar bottle of Fiji natural artisan water 110 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,320 Bottled at the source 111 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,640 Let me see where was I what else did I want to talk about 112 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,840 Pod finder there you go. I want to talk about what's featured on the pod finder on the upcoming episode 113 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,160 I think I actually have my outline here 114 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,880 Let me just open it up for a second hold on 115 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,520 Where is it? 116 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,160 Pod finder episode three. Let me tell you who's featured 117 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:48,080 I've been using Omni outliner recently. I don't know if you've checked that out 118 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:54,080 And I'm only using it because it does opml import an export if it had its own proprietary format 119 00:08:54,080 --> 00:09:00,880 Which it does and it didn't export anything else and I for sure would not be using it because I'm a big believer in the open formats 120 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,640 Come on start up here we go 121 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:11,840 Okay, so we feature episode number two of the Spike Lee shadow cast which was made available today through iTunes 122 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,480 You might want to check that out. It's pretty cool 123 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,320 Dave's eye pack 124 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,320 Tim Riley's city desk 125 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,640 Planet Japan podcast. That's a very cool one. I'll have to play that promo when I get back 126 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,360 The squad cast another great one 127 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,400 Played a clip of digital flotsome 128 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:34,240 Also the thunder cast one of my favorite morning coffee notes by the way 129 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,680 Dave whiner has now officially released his opml 130 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:43,280 application or opml editing tool and it's it's fantastic 131 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,480 You know it takes you like three seconds to kind of reset your brain and try and figure it out 132 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:54,640 But I think that particularly because this will be released in this is released as a free application and it's open source 133 00:09:55,680 --> 00:09:59,360 At least I think parts of it are open source. I don't know all of it is open source 134 00:09:59,680 --> 00:10:02,560 But you can download it and and use it for free 135 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,720 Check it out at the scripting.com 136 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,240 It's going to be a great tool for a 137 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:15,120 Helping to manage the iPod the indie potter.org directory. I should say we got to change the graphics on that. Let's just go 138 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,080 Man, let's call this thing indie potter.org. I think that makes so much sense 139 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,760 So you can contribute to that by creating and maintaining nodes in a distributed fashion 140 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,000 You can also create your show notes with it 141 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:31,520 Which oh man that light is flashing you in fast now if I cut out then I'll just talk to you guys tomorrow 142 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,520 Okay, oh, maybe I'll do some on the plane, but it'll be Wednesday before you hear from you again 143 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,240 So you can basically you 144 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:46,400 You create your show notes entry in an outliner and I guess in fact you could actually import 145 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,400 I should try that see if I can import 146 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,440 An omni outliner outline anyway 147 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,240 You create your show notes in it you could actually 148 00:10:55,440 --> 00:11:00,400 Add your podcast enclosure so you're file you could add that right into the outline 149 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,480 And then it publishes that into html which of course 150 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,320 Begets your show notes at the same time. It's an opml file 151 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:15,920 So I mean I couldn't quite even wrap my own head around it, but now we're basically creating show notes in html and opml 152 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:21,840 Simultaneously that is a big deal and you can cut and paste these things right into any other outline 153 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,320 Including your outline 154 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:29,840 For instance for a directory node so you know when I get back I'm gonna really gonna play with it 155 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,920 Right now it's windows only and of course I have the craplet running fine on that 156 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,640 It should be available for the Mac very soon so that's something you will all want to check out 157 00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:44,400 See what else in the pod finer in this upcoming episode no idle frets portland jazz gems 158 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,440 Past and present that's the colonial Williamsburg podcast the wine cast we featured 159 00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:52,560 And also my buddy's 160 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,480 Kenster J and 161 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:59,680 Cindy C.

I'll be back for about I think about a week and a half and then we go on vacation and 172 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,880 We're gonna go first. We've changed our plans just a little bit 173 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,040 So it's me Patricia Kristina. We're gonna go to New York for a spend a couple days in New York 174 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:07,520 Hope to Jersey where we use to live and meet some of the old neighbors and say hi and hang out 175 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,280 Have a barbecue of the weather permits, which I'm sure it will considering the heat wave 176 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:16,960 Then we're gonna fly to San Francisco and of course Patricia is very excited about the apartment as well 177 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,840 So it'll be some 178 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,600 Some buying of furniture and stuff and so we're gonna get the apartment all set up 179 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,960 We'll stay in a hotel first and maybe if we get the all the stuff we want in and on time 180 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:35,280 Then we'll actually stay at the apartment and of course I will contribute to to the furnishings of the apartment by 181 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,600 Getting the new audio set up done 182 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,320 That'll be my contribution 183 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:45,600 So we're gonna stay out here for about a week. Then we're gonna do something very cool. We're gonna fly back to Vegas and 184 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,520 On our way home that is so will be a couple days in Vegas now 185 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:59,200 Since it is it's gonna you know vacation and what is a vacation right? There's always gonna be some kind of work going on 186 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:00,560 And when we're out in San friend 187 00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:04,000 I'm sure that we'll be meeting with some people and we'll be hanging out and and I will have you know 188 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,840 It's not I don't consider any of this work really, but I'd want to spend 189 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,440 You know some real good quality time with the with the girl 190 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,120 So what I'm contemplating is asking the pod squad and 191 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:21,440 Several of the pod show family members if they'd like to take over the hosting duties of the pod show on serious 192 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,680 So maybe we'll have Madge Weinstein do a day and we'll have dawn on Drew do another day 193 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:31,280 And maybe the same for the pod finder. I don't know I got to think about that, but 194 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:37,920 That's basically what we we used to do on the radio you know if you want a vacation when your colleagues would have to fill in and 195 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,240 Do an extra shift so 196 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:46,240 And you're seeing is how there's so much cross pollination so many people doing promos for each other 197 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:53,040 Which at all rather third man he's doing promos all over the place for everyone including the four podcast four one one 198 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:57,440 So that's the general idea there. I do want to do the daily source code 199 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,880 And I think that I can probably get away with just you know we'll do a travel source code 200 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,840 You know we'll we'll talk about our travels where you view the day 201 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:10,320 We'll do some sound seeing in New York we'll do some sound seeing in San Francisco 202 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,120 We'll do of course some sound seeing from Vegas and 203 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,760 This coming Monday 204 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:22,800 August 1st Patricia and I have been invited to a party a playboy party in London and 205 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:29,360 I was specifically asked if I was interested in doing a sound seeing tour. Well, I thought about it 206 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,840 And I went you know, yeah, of course are you crazy? 207 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:38,400 So it'll be a sanctioned sound seeing tour of the playboy UK party 208 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,480 Dude, do I have a great job or what? 209 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,480 All right 15 minutes. That's it the microphone light is flashing like 210 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,960 You know, it's like now it's every half a second so it's about to die on me 211 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,240 I'm gonna go hit the hay. I'm gonna check in with you again 212 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:55,440 Wednesday 213 00:15:55,440 --> 00:16:01,920 It'll be let me see I arrive lemon 30 so it'll it'll probably be a morning show for you because I have the times 214 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,920 Don't work in my favor 215 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:09,120 So talk to you on Wednesday as I said.
