Yeah, that's the way you pronounce it 09:15.980 --> 09:17.980 So I got an email from Laura 09:17.980 --> 09:21.980 Let me see I think Laura is what did she do 09:21.980 --> 09:23.980 Let's read the email here 09:23.980 --> 09:32.980 I wanted to let you know the Sean more Malo I was seeing Sean she says has seen a substantial increase in sales since uploading is music to the pod sake music now working 09:32.980 --> 09:37.980 August sales reports come through CD baby dot com or delayed so sales that were completed in October 09:37.980 --> 09:42.980 Sean is just starting to get sales reports and payments for now. You played Sean on November 18 09:42.980 --> 09:44.980 So I'm curious to see the impact of that 09:44.980 --> 09:48.980 And then she says PM into where I would be down for that struggle 09:49.980 --> 09:55.980 I think that we'll be doing all kinds of cool. You know what this is the time to talk about the pod sake music network. So here's 09:56.980 --> 09:58.980 Here's the thing that 09:58.980 --> 10:01.980 That we're working on so you know that we're we're implementing a payment system 10:02.980 --> 10:03.980 Hold on a second 10:03.980 --> 10:09.980 You know Sean sent me this. I'm on as we'll do this. Hey, this is Sean more Malo and you're listening to the daily source code with the pod 10:09.980 --> 10:13.980 Adam Curry. All right, more Malo. Sorry about that Sean but you did again 10:14.980 --> 10:16.980 Okay, so we're implementing 10:16.980 --> 10:23.980 Commerce on the pod sake music network. Now there's the traditional way you go, which is with a credit card or PayPal or combination 10:23.980 --> 10:28.980 There are you know we have you basically select whatever payment credentials you want to put in 10:28.980 --> 10:36.980 But what I've really been all over and what I think is the right way to go looking at the audience from music and for the the impulse buy of this purchase 10:37.980 --> 10:43.980 Is to do it through SMS very much. You know text messaging is what it's called in the states the rest of the world calls it SMS 10:44.980 --> 10:46.980 It's just like when you vote for American Idol 10:47.980 --> 10:53.980 You cast your vote you send a text message to a certain number with the with the number of your favorite potential idol 10:54.980 --> 11:05.980 And it cost you like 99 cents. Well, duh. Hey, wait a minute. It gets charged right to your phone bill. This is fantastic because this way you don't lock out just so many people who 11:06.980 --> 11:13.980 Aren't able to put down a credit card particularly kids and kids like to buy music. You know, does it make any sense that 11:13.980 --> 11:20.980 If you have to have a credit card to buy music on the iTunes music store and you can't get that from your parents. I'm not given my daughter my credit card 11:20.980 --> 11:27.980 And my iTunes music account no way. Yeah, I can gift her stuff sure, but you know no way just no way 11:27.980 --> 11:35.980 But every kid has a cell phone and every kid, you know loves to buy music and they want to buy music if they can't then what's the logical response 11:35.980 --> 11:37.980 They're going to go rip it off from somewhere duh 11:38.980 --> 11:45.980 So they do like the ease of use now the problem with this almost second. I have a lovely cup of sense say I'll brew it up here for me 11:46.980 --> 11:47.980 Hmm 11:47.980 --> 11:49.980 The problem with this 11:49.980 --> 11:51.980 Is that 11:51.980 --> 11:56.980 The carriers the phone companies like Verizon and 11:56.980 --> 11:59.980 Team mobile and you know all the cellular carriers 12:00.980 --> 12:01.980 They take 12:01.980 --> 12:04.980 45 to 50 percent of the money 12:05.980 --> 12:08.980 So if you were to charge 99 cents per song 12:08.980 --> 12:15.980 Almost half of it goes to the carriers right away now of course that is negotiable if you know if we have like American idol like 12:16.980 --> 12:21.980 Traffic happening. I'm sure that we can negotiate that down, but that's basically what it would start off with so 12:22.980 --> 12:25.980 You know, I know there's lots of people who are very smart listening to this show 12:26.980 --> 12:30.980 And if you have any information about getting a better deal or 12:30.980 --> 12:34.980 Just any I don't think it's there. I mean, this is really the monopoly of the 12:35.980 --> 12:37.980 Cell phone carriers 12:37.980 --> 12:45.980 And that's probably just the only way we can go. I mean, I can see maybe doing a double offering where if you want you can 12:46.980 --> 12:50.980 Pay with a credit card and then we'll make sure that the balance goes to the artist 12:51.980 --> 12:58.980 So you know obviously pod show needs to take some money for the for the processing, but I'm looking more like what CD baby does 12:58.980 --> 13:01.980 You know, they seem to do a pretty fair deal. So I think 13:01.980 --> 13:06.980 If it all works, then we all make out because we'll do it on humongous volume. It'll be beautiful 13:07.980 --> 13:14.980 But so the question is, you know, do we also offer an alternative to buy for 99 cents knowing that 13:15.980 --> 13:19.980 Basically everyone gets ripped off in the process by the cell phone carrier and I have to say 13:20.980 --> 13:25.980 You know, there is a lot going on on their end. There's the whole processing. They're deducting it from a phone bill 13:25.980 --> 13:31.980 And you're doing, you know, they are doing some stuff there, but at the end of the day, it's software that's just running and you're just being overcharged for it 13:32.980 --> 13:38.980 Really how long until their investment is out or they can pull their investment out or they just using perhaps their monopoly position 13:39.980 --> 13:43.980 But personally, I think that we should offer offer it two ways. I'd love to hear your feedback on that 13:44.980 --> 13:50.980 Because I love the ease of use of text messaging, but you know, really hate the fees that are just being taken away 13:51.980 --> 13:55.980 So there you go. Okay, onward with the show 13:56.980 --> 14:04.980 I'd asked many of you to recommend songs to me that of course is how I came across Kevin Reeves and got an email here from deliberate noise 14:05.980 --> 14:10.980 Better known as Derek as a musician from Detroit called Nadir 14:11.980 --> 14:20.980 And the song I dig is called Slave and Derek sent me a link to Nadir's page on the pod save music network 14:21.980 --> 14:25.980 Which of course we'll put into the show notes, not I personally, but you will 14:26.980 --> 14:28.980 And I checked it out and you know what dude, I told you like 14:31.250 --> 18:33.750 [ Music ] 18:41.140 --> 18:47.940 Blair in a way on the speakers and she went, yeah, there you go, Nadir. I don't want to be 18:47.940 --> 18:54.260 slaved to you from his distorted soul to point OCD from the Podsate Music Network. 18:54.260 --> 18:59.900 Just staying on the PMN for a second, Adrina Thorpe, who you know from Fly Fly Fly, 18:59.900 --> 19:03.180 which I played the other day on the show, said Adam, thank you for playing my songs 19:03.180 --> 19:07.420 from time to time. The whole pod thing is crazy cool. I just put my stuff up here 19:07.500 --> 19:11.100 up there on Podsate. Next thing I knew I was getting played all over on on your show, 19:11.100 --> 19:15.340 which I know is massively downloaded on the daily basis. And I listened like, and then I can 19:15.340 --> 19:20.140 see why she said, that's so nice. Thanks for playing me. And for that lovely intro, you gave 19:20.140 --> 19:25.820 me. I said, the golden older of Podsate Music. That was hilarious. She says, who would have 19:25.820 --> 19:33.660 thought. She sees that she says that she has seen a direct correlation between what she 19:33.660 --> 19:39.580 called pod plays and sales. Although she notices something else that, and she talks about 19:39.580 --> 19:47.660 download. So I'm going to say that's probably paid downloads from somewhere. The more the, 19:47.660 --> 19:52.540 now, let me see if I can understand what she's saying here. It seems that less downloads on 19:52.540 --> 19:56.700 the songs I offer on the Podsate Music Network than the ones that aren't there. If everybody 19:56.700 --> 20:02.140 likes freebies, I'll probably take a few songs down from there. I have six up right now. I wonder, 20:02.220 --> 20:07.260 I see, I think that as independent artists, Podsate artists become more and more, 20:08.860 --> 20:13.820 their own little companies, their own record companies, essentially, because you have everything within 20:13.820 --> 20:19.260 your power. We're going to see a lot more analysis done on what works and what doesn't work. 20:19.260 --> 20:24.060 And so a dream is already thinking that way. I'm not quite sure what the correlation is. And if 20:24.060 --> 20:33.340 maybe more tracks, oh man, it's not sale. Maybe more tracks on PMN leads to album sales, 20:33.340 --> 20:38.780 the CD sales, and we got to get merchandise up there. It just, it doesn't stop. And also, 20:39.420 --> 20:45.980 we really need to get some tools for independent artists to promote themselves to the pod 20:45.980 --> 20:52.860 castors. I've been receiving a couple of emails, actually, from artists saying, hey, I think my song 20:52.860 --> 20:56.860 will fit on your show. We listen to it, and they give me a link to the PMN, and it can link 20:56.860 --> 21:04.140 right into my playlist. But there's no real uniform way that's being sent. There's no eye-catching 21:04.140 --> 21:09.500 thing. We'd have four gigs of Gmail crap stored up here, and more and more piloting in every 21:09.500 --> 21:14.940 single day. So maybe some tools there to promote it, because I go back to the simple numbers, 21:14.940 --> 21:20.380 if you have a thousand podcasts, and that's only a tenth of what people claim there's out there 21:20.460 --> 21:28.140 today, which is 10,000, although I'm sure we're around 15 to 20 now. If a tenth of that, 21:28.140 --> 21:32.620 one thousand podcasts, with an average of a thousand listeners, plays your song within a week, 21:32.620 --> 21:38.060 that's a million spins. That's unbelievable. You're going to sell off of that. There's just no 21:38.060 --> 21:43.980 way that it just, that's, all the proof is right here. I love it. I love it. And thank you, 21:43.980 --> 21:48.140 Adryna, for sending, for sending in that wonderful email. We'll talk a little bit more about 21:50.620 --> 21:56.060 the blank media tax, and performance rights in other countries all on today's show. 21:56.060 --> 22:00.300 Adam, under November 20th, I had the idea to do the Mad Money Machine podcast. 22:00.300 --> 22:04.460 I got a microphone, a mixer, and audio software. Got the domain name. Learned how to set 22:04.460 --> 22:08.540 up the blog and website and feed, wrote up the first show notes. I got some music from the 22:08.540 --> 22:13.340 Podsake Music Network. I produced the show, the artwork, the ID3 tags, uploaded the show, 22:13.340 --> 22:19.260 a notified various podcast directories. Well, by December 22nd, just 32 days since the idea first 22:19.260 --> 22:24.380 flashed in my mind, my podcast has already made it to number 8 in the iTunes Business category, 22:24.380 --> 22:31.500 32 days, and I'm in the top 10. Adam, just two words. Thank you. I started listening to your show 22:31.500 --> 22:36.220 at about the SC197 and have a missed one since. You have most definitely been the inspiration 22:36.300 --> 22:41.660 to do this, and I thank you. The Mad Money Machine podcast is simply about my passion 22:41.660 --> 22:46.140 to help people invest wisely. Among other things, on each show I'll review the performance of 22:46.140 --> 22:51.500 the stockpicks from CNBC's most watched show, Jim Crammer's Mad Money. The podcast also provides 22:51.500 --> 22:55.420 lots of other investment insights and tools, including a special segment called new money, 22:55.420 --> 23:01.180 at the end of the show for beginning investors or even kids.

Okay, let me just talk about advertising and podcast. 24:45.740 --> 24:52.220 I know that you heard the Earth Link commercial zing by there, and we're really happy that Earth 24:52.220 --> 24:56.940 Link is sponsoring actually pretty big portions of the pod show podcast network. 24:58.300 --> 25:02.940 Just wanted to give you some grand vision, because of course, that's still a standard spot, 25:02.940 --> 25:09.820 and it's a very standard radio-like way. Of course, if we wind up recreating radio, but leaving 25:09.820 --> 25:14.220 advertising the same, then I think we've pretty much failed. There's still going to be a healthy 25:14.220 --> 25:19.740 mix of the old school stuff where we figure all of this out, so I think that as we work together 25:20.060 --> 25:24.060 on figuring out what works, but I do want, I just want to stop briefly and just let you know 25:24.060 --> 25:28.300 what the grand vision of it is, and we've talked about this before, but I want to reiterate, 25:28.300 --> 25:37.980 and the reason why I want to read, the reason why I want to reiterate that is because I heard 25:37.980 --> 25:43.180 my partner Ron Bloom saying the same thing, and when I've known him for a long time, and when we 25:43.180 --> 25:47.900 start saying the same thing, then we're on the right track, then we're working, and it goes, 25:47.900 --> 25:51.420 it's not like any secret handshake or agreement, and it works vice versa. 25:52.540 --> 26:00.140 And I think the concept of winding up where actually, because remember, this is not if we recreate 26:00.140 --> 26:06.460 radio, or the entertainment VM, I don't see the podcast as radio, because I know we'll talk about 26:06.460 --> 26:12.220 that a bit in a second, but if we were to recreate it and we come right back to the way that 26:12.220 --> 26:19.260 radio charges, namely the CPM, or the cost per mill, in other words, the dollar amount you pay 26:19.260 --> 26:26.620 per thousand listeners reached, which is anywhere between five and twenty five dollars per 26:26.620 --> 26:35.740 thousand people that you reach, those are radio prices these days, then we've failed as well. 26:36.700 --> 26:43.100 So, you know, taking into account that even if you have 10 listeners, those listeners have 26:43.100 --> 26:50.540 a special connection between themselves amongst themselves and the podcaster, or the podcasters, 26:50.540 --> 26:55.820 or the host, or the producers of the show, and that connection is what we're out to prove 26:55.820 --> 27:03.820 is extremely valuable, and it's our belief that we can manage advertising campaigns well enough 27:04.780 --> 27:09.580 that the actual advertisers will have to audition in a number of ways, including price, 27:10.860 --> 27:18.300 to actually be able to advertise on any given podcast. So, I just want that to set in for a second, 27:18.300 --> 27:23.740 because that is what is, I believe, I really, truly believe is going to drive this new form of 27:23.740 --> 27:29.820 advertising. We're going to work much more directly with the creative side of the advertising business 27:30.620 --> 27:35.100 for instance, that these earthling spots, actually, if it was a different one every single time, 27:35.100 --> 27:38.780 and I had 30 different ones and there was a different story, it would bother me much less. 27:40.060 --> 27:44.700 I think repetition is the thing that is one of the things that we've gotten really tired of in mainstream 27:44.700 --> 27:50.380 radio, and you can repeat the same general message, but it can be delivered different every single time. 27:50.380 --> 27:54.700 That would just be a start, just a very small modification, and that's done all the time, by the way, 27:54.700 --> 28:03.420 of course, in traditional advertising. But the concept that an advertiser would have to audition 28:04.060 --> 28:13.740 to sponsor a show is big, and it opens it up so that not only big brands and big advertisers, 28:13.740 --> 28:18.780 but if you wanted to just show up with your credit card and advertise on Dawn and Drew, as an example, 28:20.060 --> 28:24.140 then you should be able to do that, and you should be able to audition in the same manner. 28:24.220 --> 28:29.260 And I think at the end of the day, the show itself, the producers, and probably the audience, 28:29.260 --> 28:35.260 if we find the right way to involve them, will ultimately decide what is applicable and what is not. 28:36.460 --> 28:41.740 And that's pretty powerful stuff, it really is. So I just wanted to throw that out there. 28:42.940 --> 28:47.660 Got some interesting Gmail feedback. You know, I'm up to 98% now, I'm my Gmail account. I receive 28:47.980 --> 28:54.060 the special geeky four gigs instead of two gigs. I'm not seeing it grow, so I think it's a hard 28:54.060 --> 28:58.700 wire change they made for me. So I'm going to have to start begging again to get more 28:58.700 --> 29:05.900 gigage allocated. I pay for it. I gladly pay for it. I really love Gmail. Let me pay for it, please. 29:06.220 --> 29:20.460 Give me more space. I need more space. Leo Vagoda has heard Maya 29:20.460 --> 29:25.260 ranting about Gmail, and he started using it for his personal mail, and he likes the way 29:25.260 --> 29:29.820 the built-in spell checker works. I totally agree. I use it all the time. It also has, 29:29.820 --> 29:33.740 it seems a growing list of languages that it'll check for. In fact, when I write an email in 29:33.740 --> 29:38.380 Dutch, which I also do from time to time, and I hit spell check, it automatically recognizes 29:38.380 --> 29:43.340 that it's Dutch. I don't even have to set it. So that's really nice. Leo goes on to say in his emails, 29:43.340 --> 29:46.620 I check the spelling on a mail I was sending earlier this evening. I noticed they don't know 29:46.620 --> 29:52.700 the word podcast. It's true. I've noticed this. I have told Rama, she rommed that. I said, 29:52.700 --> 29:57.820 dude, you know, next time we talk to the Gmail guys, get me some more space. And you might want 29:57.820 --> 30:03.180 them to put the word podcast into their spell check dictionary. It's just a minor oversight, 30:03.180 --> 30:08.220 but it makes you look so Microsofty, you know? So please fix that. They'll hear it. They'll fix it. 30:08.220 --> 30:11.820 Let's keep an eye on it. From this date, from the 23rd December, let's see how long it takes to get 30:11.820 --> 30:20.300 it fixed. And I lost his email address. Dutch guy sent me an idea about syncing up Gmail to my 30:20.300 --> 30:26.220 blackberry, and using the email push the way the way it works with the regular service that it 30:26.220 --> 30:32.060 comes with. And he has a very good work around. Unfortunately, speaking of Microsoft, it requires 30:32.060 --> 30:39.740 installing the exchange server. So his idea was since, since Gmail, so I guess it supports I'm 30:39.740 --> 30:44.620 app. Does it support I'm app? Yeah, I think it supports I'm app. Or maybe the extended pop three 30:44.620 --> 30:51.340 protocol, whatever the hell that is. And what he did is, so essentially you can set up push email 30:51.340 --> 30:56.220 either through your cellular carrier who will have some kind of web interface for you or you can 30:56.300 --> 31:03.420 set it up with an enterprise exchange server. And it'll also push your email out and synchronize 31:03.420 --> 31:08.940 it. And so what he did is he said, well, once you create a connector to Gmail through I map, 31:08.940 --> 31:13.820 or the extended pop three protocol, so that it will basically replicate the changes that you make 31:14.700 --> 31:18.540 in your exchange email box. And so it is a chain and there's an extra step in the middle, 31:18.540 --> 31:23.580 but it would work. Now, of course, the the big problem is, you know, setting up an exchange 31:23.580 --> 31:32.460 server. Man, I'm afraid of that. But the idea is really cool. So it could work. Any more thoughts 31:32.460 --> 31:38.780 on that are obviously welcome. And just got a quick email from Cass Blaster Mike. We haven't talked 31:38.780 --> 31:44.060 about Cass Blaster Mike in a while. He has been releasing new code steadily and he's been working 31:44.060 --> 31:49.420 on this other thing, which he hasn't even given me a runtime copy of yet, which is it just looks 31:49.500 --> 31:54.860 really cool. It's the other side of the equation. But it's what I like about seeing the kind of 31:54.860 --> 31:59.980 development that Mike does is he's he's out to solve a problem. He's not, you know, just developing 31:59.980 --> 32:05.100 software. He sees a problem. He saw the problem of a simple way to record a podcast. He fixed it. 32:05.820 --> 32:10.700 And the ties are now being made. The connections between the cast Blaster software and the 32:10.700 --> 32:16.540 PDN, the podcast delivery network. So that's going to be cool for direct, you know, one button 32:16.540 --> 32:25.900 click it all fires off and you're done with that crap. He said that the, um, what is it? The forum 32:25.900 --> 32:34.300 moderator over to castblaster.com has actually started his first podcast, which is unusual. Now usually 32:34.300 --> 32:41.420 people who are on the listening side or, um, or the, you know, or really fans of shows or software. 32:41.500 --> 32:46.700 They don't, you know, if they're not podcasting already, it doesn't happen that, you know, 32:46.700 --> 32:52.060 people hang around for months and then start to podcast. And so he's got a, it doesn't have a promo yet, 32:52.060 --> 32:57.420 but it's a radioqrm.com. If you want to hear a podcast made with cast Blaster, direct from the 32:57.420 --> 33:03.100 cast Blaster community, really go check that out. And cast Blaster is a free download, um, it'll work 33:03.100 --> 33:06.860 for, you know, it'll record up to 10 minutes and then you can purchase a license. If you want to, 33:06.860 --> 33:13.100 uh, um, if you want the full understricted version, castblaster.com. 33:14.700 --> 33:21.180 Oh, let me see. Well, I was just cruising around the podcast, using network, uh, and, you know, 33:21.180 --> 33:26.700 again, another 50 new songs in there, so another record label came online, just kicking some 33:26.700 --> 33:32.300 ass. And, um, I found this, uh, it's kind of like a mix, but it's like rock and a little bit of 33:32.380 --> 33:43.420 country, uh, let me see, the artist's name is Terri Lee Cobble. And I think the CD's about a year old, 33:43.420 --> 33:48.940 but, uh, yeah, I'm a sucker for this kind of music.

I'm only kind of hinted it one 40:10.300 --> 40:13.300 For our podcast delivery network 40:13.300 --> 40:15.300 Now the the big thing about 40:15.300 --> 40:17.300 Growth and podcasting 40:17.300 --> 40:23.060 testing is this shit just eats up bandwidth and in order to be able to deliver reliably, 40:23.060 --> 40:27.700 we didn't want to go and build infrastructure that other people had figured out a long, 40:27.700 --> 40:35.660 long time ago. So we partnered up with a big player. And we want to make sure that, of 40:35.660 --> 40:41.060 course, anyone who wants to independently produce a podcast, can at least not have to worry 40:41.060 --> 40:44.980 about the delivery part, not have to worry about the tools part, not just not have to worry 40:44.980 --> 40:48.180 about that stuff. So you can just get, hey, look, if you need to produce her, then that 40:48.180 --> 40:54.340 works going to help you out, believe me. So I hinted around, and so far two people have gotten 40:54.340 --> 41:00.260 the right Pico and Leo figured out who our partner is. So that's all I'm going to say about it 41:00.260 --> 41:05.460 for right now. You could actually, if you did some more digging, and this is for the nerds, 41:06.820 --> 41:13.300 you could actually find out who our other partner is. And it's also a really a network partner, 41:13.380 --> 41:18.260 but someone who offers a very important service when it comes to networking. 41:19.940 --> 41:27.220 And we think, January 1st, we'll have our first, by now it's probably about 50 podcasters 41:27.220 --> 41:34.100 who will be using the PDN as well as the first portions of the network. 41:35.700 --> 41:40.100 And I can tell you, I'm very, very excited about it. So, and they'll be talking about it on their 41:40.180 --> 41:45.300 own shows, and they'll be letting you know about what they're experiencing. So I don't have to 41:46.180 --> 41:51.060 to do our own horn here for the moment. But I do want to do the horn of the folks at Pod Show 41:51.940 --> 41:57.940 who are working really hard to get a lot of stuff done before, really the Christmas week, 41:59.060 --> 42:04.980 and also for those who have decided to shift their lives around to work between Christmas and New 42:05.860 --> 42:13.060 years, and it's deeply appreciated by myself, and I'm sure that a whole bunch of other podcasts 42:13.060 --> 42:16.740 who have been waiting for for great services to come online and to be happy as well. 42:17.780 --> 42:22.660 Oh, wait a minute. Oh, yes, it's time, ladies and gentlemen, because it's Friday, so we get the 42:22.660 --> 42:27.140 talk about the bio diesel industry, and we do it with a Trinity song. 42:35.940 --> 42:43.780 From the bio diesel industry. So today we've got some banter on synthetic oils, some 42:43.780 --> 42:50.260 biodiesel podcasts, a book about biodiesel, having some cow dung make a car run, and a show on the 42:50.260 --> 42:58.980 discovery channel. It's also a diesel engine for an airplane, and is she a biodiesel at all? 42:59.380 --> 43:03.300 These questions of many more will remain unanswered in our bio diesel segment. 43:05.380 --> 43:10.020 Which of course revolves around the purchase of my new Mercedes 300 turbo diesel biodiesel? 43:10.980 --> 43:36.180 Trinity, Trinity, Trinity, Trinity, Trinity, Trinity, Trinity, I think Jeff is blind too. 43:37.140 --> 43:43.300 I don't know. Jeff, can you send me the, just the track for that? The music, because I'd love to 43:43.300 --> 43:46.900 continue the music, continue to have the music continue underneath me going through some of the 43:46.900 --> 43:52.580 feedback that we received regarding biodiesel and Trinity, and I'd really love for these to be 43:52.580 --> 43:57.860 audio feedback, and one of the things we're going to have on a new show sites as a part of the 43:57.860 --> 44:02.420 podcast network will be a feedback mechanism that'll make that a lot easier for everybody, 44:03.140 --> 44:10.020 including the podcast, of course. Peter Warnock, hooked into the synthetic oils conversation 44:10.020 --> 44:15.780 and says synthetic oils help reduce our dependency on crude oil, but it's still derived from petrochemicals 44:16.420 --> 44:22.500 as our nylon latex plastic and a variety of other products. Yeah, okay. So, again, you know, 44:22.500 --> 44:28.260 I'm not in this, I just want to make it clear, although it has all the benefits of being much greener away 44:28.260 --> 44:35.700 of consuming road space. I'm really in it for the independence of just being able to, you know, 44:35.700 --> 44:45.300 my ultimate dream to be able to poop in my tank and go. BJK, BJ says you need to serve to TDI club.com. 44:45.300 --> 44:50.580 Okay, form for diesel owners, hackers, mechanics, biodiesel brewers. These are the guys who know 44:50.580 --> 44:56.500 all about the diesel cars. Okay, definitely. And also he says the podcast more hip than hippie 44:56.580 --> 45:02.820 had useful biodiesel information. Okay, so maybe we can ask Dorian Val to revisit biodiesel. 45:02.820 --> 45:10.260 That would be cool. Moving on to Ash Reed, Adam Congratulations with your new car. 45:10.820 --> 45:16.660 I've enclosed the book I sell over at newbiodiesel.com about biodiesel. Good starting point for making 45:16.660 --> 45:21.700 and using biodiesel. Okay, cool. So that's newbiodiesel.com. I thank you for the PDF. 45:22.260 --> 45:28.420 It's on my required reading list that usually happens on virgin upper class. And then I got an article 45:28.420 --> 45:34.100 about cow fuel. I'm just going to fire up a fire Fox here for a second. Take it there. 45:36.260 --> 45:42.500 It's actually a Reuters story. And this comes from Quebec. A Canadian company has an idea for 45:42.500 --> 45:47.860 motors worried about global warming. Put a cow in your tank. And man, what's next? Poop in your 45:47.860 --> 45:53.860 tank? You're going to steal all my lines here. $14 million a Canadian dollar. Factor in your 45:53.860 --> 45:58.580 Montreal started producing biodiesel fuel two weeks ago from the bones, innards, and other parts 45:58.580 --> 46:05.300 of farm animals such as cattle, pigs, or chickens that Canadians do not eat. We're rushing. No, I'm 46:05.300 --> 46:10.180 sorry. We're using animal waste to reduce greenhouse gas emissions said marketing director won 46:10.180 --> 46:16.020 Ron Wardrop of Rothsay, which runs the plant. We need more of this type of thing. And he said 46:16.100 --> 46:21.060 at the plant by the St. Lawrence River near Montreal where 189 nations are meeting this week to 46:21.060 --> 46:26.820 work out how to curb climate change, wildly blamed on emissions of heat-trapping gases from fossil 46:26.820 --> 46:34.820 fuels. Anyway, so they're thrown just debris, I guess. Just dead, dead animals. Okay. 46:35.780 --> 46:41.700 Which brings us back to that original thought of your granny and your tank. More with thought. 46:41.940 --> 46:48.340 I missed it, but the discovery channel had a show called dirty, or has a show called dirty jobs. 46:48.340 --> 46:53.220 And in one of the episodes they featured biodiesel, I was wondering if anyone has a bit torn 46:53.220 --> 46:57.060 or can tell me when, because I do have discovery channel here over in Europe. I don't know if it's the 46:57.060 --> 47:06.580 same one. Just when I can catch that. I'd love to see that. And here's Kevin Mason saying, 47:06.580 --> 47:11.140 how about having listeners send you an image? Oh, this is whether I actually have a biodiesel 47:11.140 --> 47:15.780 engine or not. I think we're going to find out if I have a biodiesel engine, we throw some biodiesel 47:15.780 --> 47:22.260 in and see if it works or not. But that is a good idea. If someone could put in the show notes, 47:22.260 --> 47:27.460 a converted engine before and after. So we know exactly what pieces of kit to look for. That would 47:27.540 --> 47:36.020 be very helpful. And see two more here. John Foreman says, actually, oh, I know John, 47:36.020 --> 47:41.540 he says he's been in the garage building as plain all week. And he's been catching up on the daily 47:41.540 --> 47:50.020 source codes. And he sent me a link to a site called Delta Hawk and Delta Hawk Engines.com. 47:50.820 --> 47:56.660 Um, they make diesel engines for airplanes. He says, doesn't know if they have a conversion 47:56.660 --> 48:04.900 for the 182, but, you know, I'm sure it's coming. Imagine that flying, pooping in your planes tank. 48:04.900 --> 48:11.620 Oh, man, I love it. And then the final one, Chris Holman, who, yeah, this is the same thing. 48:11.620 --> 48:15.300 Other than the stick around the back windshield, or you sure this is even a biodiesel car. 48:15.460 --> 48:21.060 Well, I'm going back at the January 8th, I think, the 8th or the 9th. And I'll be then in the 48:21.060 --> 48:26.580 condo for two weeks, a good run. And, uh, well, I know that I'm going to run out of fuel eventually. 48:26.580 --> 48:32.020 So we are going to do our sound seeing tour trip to Berkeley, biodiesel oasis. 48:32.980 --> 48:37.860 Yeah, baby, cannot wait. Hey, Adam, this is Chris with the Children of the God's Project 48:37.860 --> 48:42.580 over at Children of the Gods that net. I just wanted to drop you a line and thank you for playing 48:42.580 --> 48:47.620 my comment to you on your show a couple of weeks back. And again, for the play on today's show as 48:47.620 --> 48:53.620 well, I also wanted to pass on to you that the response to that comment has been simply phenomenal. 48:53.620 --> 48:57.620 I've received close to 50 emails from folks offering to lend their voices or various 48:57.620 --> 49:02.820 talents with music and sound effects to the project. I have to tell you, I'm truly scrambling to 49:02.820 --> 49:07.300 get the scripts written fast enough to give as many of these great people a role in the project as 49:07.300 --> 49:14.180 quickly as possible. It's getting a little nuts. In fact, for those of your listeners who have 49:14.180 --> 49:18.900 set me an email and haven't received a response from me yet, I would like to apologize for the delay 49:18.900 --> 49:24.100 and getting back with them. Simply, wasn't prepared for the onslaught on my inbox, and since I'm 49:24.100 --> 49:29.940 pretty new, not only to podcasting, but also to a publicized project of this scope. I'm suffering 49:29.940 --> 49:35.460 from a bit of disorganization. I've worked hard to fix it though, and I'd like to invite any of 49:35.460 --> 49:41.060 the volunteers who have not heard back from me to visit production.children of the gods.net 49:41.060 --> 49:45.620 and create an account for themselves. There, they can check out the latest scripts as they are finished 49:45.620 --> 49:51.780 and see what roles are available and make contact with me to volunteer for a particular part. 49:52.580 --> 49:57.060 This way, it's a little more organized than I'm not struggling with people who want the same 49:57.060 --> 50:01.540 part and so on and so on. It's slow going right now while we try to get jostled into the main 50:01.540 --> 50:06.100 character roles and get the recorded voices all together. But once everyone's in position, 50:06.100 --> 50:10.740 I should be able to produce a new episode, once every couple of weeks at first, and then hopefully 50:10.740 --> 50:16.100 once a week as I get the production process streamlined. In the meantime, keep your ears open for 50:16.100 --> 50:21.620 the sonic boom. I think this project is going to make it a podcast community. If it cracks your windows, 50:21.620 --> 50:26.580 let me know so I can get a check to you, huh? Thanks again, pod, father. See you, Mac. 50:26.580 --> 50:32.980 Out. All right, man. Thank you. That's Jay Mac's brother. I think, from not mistaken. 50:34.180 --> 50:39.940 And so these projects, this is something really beautiful. It's taking place here. If you look at 50:39.940 --> 50:46.980 what happened with pod safe for peace, 32 pod safe artists, all mixed, all virtual people who 50:47.140 --> 50:56.820 never met each other, not before, not since. If you look at the friends and technology, 50:59.300 --> 51:04.580 Christmas Carol, their geeky Christmas Carol, one of their in their series of, where's it, 51:04.580 --> 51:13.140 nightmares from the server room. If you look at this project, children of the gods, if you look at 51:14.100 --> 51:19.940 comment, have you heard of the podcast, a podcast Christmas Carol at apodcastChristmas Carol.com. 51:19.940 --> 51:24.340 Wow, this was great. I had a small role in it. I was really thankful that I was allowed to participate. 51:24.340 --> 51:30.020 When I heard it all come back, I was just amazed at the shit we can do. And we're putting, 51:30.020 --> 51:34.900 I mean, this is a 50 minute drama, and it's compelling. It's good. You know, this is story to it. 51:34.900 --> 51:38.740 And of course, it's all tongue and cheek. And we're kind of making fun of the radio industry. 51:39.700 --> 51:47.220 But it's great, you know, and how quickly we're able to organize and and create a mashup, 51:47.220 --> 51:51.380 there you go. Once again, you know, what the hell was that? That was a complete mashup. We made 51:51.380 --> 51:57.220 entertainment ourselves. This is really important stuff that's happening here. I'm excited about it. 51:57.220 --> 52:03.620 Note to self, must make the mashboard, whatever the fuck that is. And an update on the 52:03.620 --> 52:06.900 tie. We're just going to get it through everything today. I got like six more items on my list. 52:07.940 --> 52:13.540 Frank Yonan, by far and away, has sent in the most beautiful design for my tattoo that I've 52:13.540 --> 52:18.100 been thinking of getting. No, I'm convinced I'm getting it now. We're now down to the final bits of 52:18.100 --> 52:23.380 design Patricia has taken his design and has made some adaptations. I'm going to scan those, 52:23.380 --> 52:30.580 email them back to him. And then I guess I'm just going to have it made. I'm really excited about this. 52:30.580 --> 52:37.620 And trucker Tom, if you know, trucker Tom is, or if you don't, go search Flickr for trucker Tom 52:37.620 --> 52:47.620 tags. And you'll see that he without a doubt is an expert when it comes to tattoo. I think 50 52:47.620 --> 52:52.500 percent of his body or something like that is tattooed. And he sent me this wonderful, of course, 52:52.500 --> 52:58.900 I packed it away. Now, he sent me this wonderful, like quick start guide, which was a project I 52:58.900 --> 53:02.180 guess he worked on a while ago. It was kind of like, you know, when you open up a new gadget, 53:02.180 --> 53:06.020 you have the manual and then you have the quick start manual. So this was a part of what was supposed 53:06.020 --> 53:10.340 to be a series of quick start guides. And it was a 10 step quick start guide to getting a tattoo. 53:10.340 --> 53:16.660 And there's some really, yeah, there was some really good information in there. And some some 53:16.660 --> 53:20.660 good, thoughtful things. You know, one of the, and also some jargons. You kind of know what you're 53:20.660 --> 53:24.740 talking about, but also some recommendations like never, ever ever get someone's name tattoo. 53:24.740 --> 53:32.420 You know, your body bad idea. So appreciate it, Trucker Tom. Really do. And what I'll do is I'll 53:32.420 --> 53:38.180 put the, when we have the final design, I'll put it up in the show notes, a show notes. You could 53:38.180 --> 53:47.060 take a look at it. And then, you know, what? Now, I think that was Patricia calling for Christina 53:47.220 --> 53:55.460 not for me. Anyway, uh, egg nog. Uh, I was waiting for this to happen. I think Patricia's 53:55.460 --> 54:00.500 calling Christina. Uh, Amy Bugbee says, Adam, heard your call for egg nog recipes. And here's 54:00.500 --> 54:06.020 mine actually made it my very first podcast at crime in cookies.com. Go to the cookie cast about 54:06.020 --> 54:11.700 four minutes long. And I give the entire recipe and directions. Rum and whiskey. Imagine that. Um, 54:11.700 --> 54:16.260 you got it, Amy. Thank you very much. I'm going to, I'm, I've chosen your recipe because you're 54:16.340 --> 54:23.300 the first one to do a podcast of it. So, I'm going to use that. Let me see, now onto the blank 54:23.300 --> 54:30.260 media tax. Um, and I think we should wind this up pretty soon. Uh, I think the first thing I have 54:30.260 --> 54:35.140 here is a comment from Darrell. Let me see, it looks a little four minutes maybe long. Let's see what 54:35.140 --> 54:39.780 it was. I think it was actually something pretty good. Hey, Adam, this is Darrell Falman with 54:39.780 --> 54:45.620 Roscoe podcast. And this has to do with you. Oh, yeah, right. He's a lawyer or he's a lawyer in 54:45.620 --> 54:50.340 making, but it's the law school podcast. So, yeah. So, I want to definitely listen to this because 54:50.340 --> 54:57.380 he goes into the United States code and statutory law about who is allowed to collect money from 54:57.380 --> 55:02.020 blank media. It's four, it's four minutes long. So, you might want to skip ahead if you're 55:02.020 --> 55:07.140 completely uninterested, but he has some really good pieces of information that he's dealt up 55:07.220 --> 55:12.820 for us that I think you want to listen to. Your performance rights. I tried to do some research 55:12.820 --> 55:18.180 on this a little bit to find out what to deal with. I really cannot believe that there'd be a charge 55:18.180 --> 55:25.780 for a digital audio recording mediums as it's defined by the United States code. But anyway, 55:27.540 --> 55:33.300 there is a fee for that. A digital audio recording medium is any material object and form 55:33.300 --> 55:38.740 commonly distributed for use by individuals that is primarily marketed or most commonly used 55:38.740 --> 55:44.260 by consumers for the purpose of making digital audio copied recordings by use of a digital 55:44.260 --> 55:52.100 audio recording device. So, that could be a recordable seating raw. Now, here we have the royalty 55:52.100 --> 55:59.380 payments. Digital audio recording media. This is a total 17 chapter 10 subjectorsc section 55:59.700 --> 56:06.180 one thousand four under the United States code. The royalty payment do under section one thousand three 56:06.180 --> 56:12.420 for each digital audio recording medium imported into and distributed in the United States 56:12.420 --> 56:18.500 or manufactured and distributed in the United States shall be 3% of the transfer price. 56:18.500 --> 56:23.700 Only the first person to manufacture and distribute or import and distribute such media shall be 56:24.020 --> 56:29.860 required to pay the royalty with respect to these such media. Now, under the United States code 56:29.860 --> 56:36.260 title 17 chapter 10 subjectorsc section one thousand six, this is the allocation of royalty payments. 56:36.820 --> 56:42.420 It's in two funds. Number one, the sound recordings fund. They get 66 and three two thirds per cent. 56:42.980 --> 56:48.180 Two and five eights per cent of that goes to now's for a escrow account managed by an 56:48.180 --> 56:54.020 independent administrator and also the interested copyright parties that are the non-featured 56:54.020 --> 56:58.980 musicians. That's two and five eights per cent to them. One and three eights per cent of the 56:58.980 --> 57:07.460 royalty payments allocated go to non-featured vocalist and then forty percent of the remaining. So, 57:07.460 --> 57:12.020 forty percent of the remaining after two and five eights and after one and three eights of the 57:12.020 --> 57:17.620 66 and two thirds that's complicated all this fractions. But forty percent of that goes 57:18.500 --> 57:24.580 to the sound recordings fund and shall be distributed to the featured recording artists. And then 57:24.580 --> 57:30.900 sixty percent other remaining of the remaining royalty payments shall be distributed to the owners. 57:31.940 --> 57:38.820 Okay, so now we have thirty-for-one-third percent left. Fifty percent of that will go to the music 57:38.900 --> 57:44.100 publishers and then, I mean, do I say thirty percent of that fifty percent? Fifty percent 57:44.100 --> 57:49.380 goes to the music publishers and fifty percent goes to the writers. So, there you have it. 57:49.380 --> 57:55.860 I just started doing some research on this. I'm interested to learn some more, find out who 57:55.860 --> 58:04.180 the sound recordings fund is and, you know, who all these parties are. And it's just kind of 58:04.180 --> 58:12.980 interesting, I'll post some information in the show notes from your DSC 302. And you can read 58:12.980 --> 58:18.900 it there and also links back to my website and maybe some other links as well. One interesting thing, 58:18.900 --> 58:26.340 I found a case while I was doing some research that had the RIA and they were basically 58:27.620 --> 58:31.780 going wanted to go to arbitration on the amount of money that they were getting and what they 58:31.780 --> 58:39.060 wanted was something like forty-some percent instead of like two percent or whatever and they ended 58:39.060 --> 58:47.780 up getting about six percent from music and a couple of other companies. But anyway, interesting stuff 58:47.780 --> 58:54.900 and cut out what you need. I know it's a bunch of garbage but the basics of this is that, 58:55.220 --> 59:02.180 yes, there is a three percent charge on the transfer price for media in the United States. 59:02.820 --> 59:05.780 Have a good one. I hope you have a great Christmas. Talk to you later. 59:07.220 --> 59:12.420 Hold on. What happened? Yeah, I'm doing the show so you walk in, you're on the show. 59:12.420 --> 59:18.660 I'm into theory. No, so I have to use your keys. Well, no, you don't have to. You can go find your key. 59:18.660 --> 59:23.700 I know, but I have to go to sense, Barry, and by, well, you do some, will you buy something for me 59:23.780 --> 59:29.700 while you're there? You know, there's a new Gillette G3 Razor with a vibrator in it. 59:32.420 --> 59:37.780 Really? Yes. It's supposed to be the, yeah, yeah, I've seen it there at Sainsbury. It's 59:37.780 --> 59:43.860 a, it comes with a battery and the whole thing. Really? Yeah. Oh. Can you go one of those for me? 59:43.860 --> 59:51.780 Yeah. Okay, thank you. Love you. Bye. So, um, back to that, man, this is going to be such a long 59:51.860 --> 59:58.260 podcast. But hey, it's not often that Christmas and Hanukkah start on the same day. 01:00:01.700 --> 01:00:05.620 Thank you very much for going through all the trouble there to find to find out that information 01:00:06.980 --> 01:00:11.780 about the code. This is exactly what your government is doing, ladies and gentlemen, and notice that 01:00:11.780 --> 01:00:16.500 stuff goes into arbitration when they, when someone else wants to muscle in and get some, 01:00:16.500 --> 01:00:20.900 some money out of this pool, how about just independent programmers? If it's only about 01:00:20.900 --> 01:00:27.460 copying files and not specified as music, then anyone could delve into that. Man, man, that's, that's 01:00:27.460 --> 01:00:33.060 what your government does. You, you wonder why Holly would donate so much money? Well, duh, 01:00:33.060 --> 01:00:37.300 this is how they get it back, you know, by getting able to being able to cut these kind of deals 01:00:37.300 --> 01:00:41.940 on the back end. Doesn't matter. I, I don't, I'm not interested in any of that. Let's say, 01:00:41.940 --> 01:00:46.100 well, they're all busy, you know, meeting and going into arbitration about how to divvy up the 01:00:46.100 --> 01:00:50.820 dough. Let's create our own pool. You know, let's create our own pool of cash and let's surprise them. 01:00:50.820 --> 01:00:55.540 When they wake up, we'll say, well, sorry, we got everything running over here. Just find new rules 01:00:56.900 --> 01:01:01.780 and Doug Pilgrim really takes it to the extreme and he's so right. He says, hey, isn't blank paper used 01:01:01.780 --> 01:01:06.180 some of the time to copyright material? Can you imagine the shitstorm that would be creative? 01:01:06.180 --> 01:01:13.220 There was a fee or a tax on blank paper? Why not? If the RIA can tax CDs, why not let publishers 01:01:13.220 --> 01:01:20.340 tax blank paper? You know, it wouldn't surprise me if they already do. When not surprised me at all. 01:01:21.780 --> 01:01:29.780 Okay, I don't know how this one got by my, you know, my RSS reader, but apparently Apple is selling 01:01:29.780 --> 01:01:39.460 a podcast server and there's been some talk about that on the boards. I don't know, I mean, 01:01:39.460 --> 01:01:44.100 it would work for businesses. I think actually is being sold as a business podcast server. 01:01:45.220 --> 01:01:51.300 And let me see, there was a, oh, man, I got this whole PDF about the Australian version of 01:01:51.300 --> 01:01:56.740 AskCat, the amount of AskCat. I might just take a look at it for a second. There was a reason why I 01:01:56.740 --> 01:02:04.020 put it into my, into my outliner. Oh, yeah, they have, oh, yeah, it's the podcast license from 01:02:04.020 --> 01:02:14.020 the RP, APRA, which is Australia's version of AskCat slash BMI. What was the thing I wanted to talk 01:02:14.020 --> 01:02:21.540 about here? It was so complicated. Here we go. So this license is good up until the 31st of December 01:02:21.540 --> 01:02:31.620 2006. Podcast containing music works are licensed at 1.925%. That's including a value added tax 01:02:31.620 --> 01:02:36.980 of gross revenue. So any money you receive, all of all the money you get for your podcast. 01:02:37.940 --> 01:02:41.780 And that would include barter as well. So if you receive something in trade, you'd have to 01:02:42.340 --> 01:02:53.460 basically pay cash your fee. It's subject to a minimum fee of 1.62 cents per work per subscriber. 01:02:54.420 --> 01:03:02.580 Cap.16.5 cents per podcast per subscriber. So I guess if you had to show where you had like 10 songs 01:03:02.580 --> 01:03:10.820 or but does it even have 10 or 20, then essentially you have to pay. This is amazing. 16 cents. 01:03:12.740 --> 01:03:20.980 Per work per subscriber. That sounds, let's just take it at the, let's just make it two cents 01:03:20.980 --> 01:03:26.020 just to make it easy, okay? Because that's a little bit above the minimum fee. So if you have, 01:03:26.020 --> 01:03:32.660 like I just, I'm going to have three songs in this show. So that would be six cents. 01:03:33.620 --> 01:03:42.420 And then I have to multiply it by the subscribers. So even I would go broke. 01:03:44.020 --> 01:03:47.700 Now it doesn't say anything about if you don't make any money, 01:03:49.220 --> 01:03:56.340 which I think means that the minimum subject to a minimum fee that I think you always have to pay 01:03:56.340 --> 01:04:02.420 the 1.62 cents. And those are Australian cents. I presume, Australian dollar cents. 01:04:03.380 --> 01:04:08.340 Wow. Yeah, that's great. But I don't think it's really going to work. 01:04:09.940 --> 01:04:16.500 And of course, the real question is of that fee, does any of that money go to the actual independent 01:04:16.500 --> 01:04:23.060 artist who created the music? I don't think we're there yet, guys. I really don't. 01:04:23.540 --> 01:04:29.780 What I do know is that we're definitely there for this year, for this podcast, 01:04:30.500 --> 01:04:36.420 and I think it is kind of unique that Hanukkah starts on the 25th of December, which is Christmas Day. 01:04:37.860 --> 01:04:40.980 And I want to, yeah, really, I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. We don't have 01:04:42.260 --> 01:04:46.660 a Hanukkah Podsafe piece, but perhaps that will happen next year. 01:04:48.750 --> 01:09:13.750 [ Music ] 01:09:17.380 --> 01:09:25.540 we make all our dreams come true, we make all our dreams come true, we make all our dreams come true, 01:09:25.540 --> 01:09:26.380 It was so cool. 01:09:26.380 --> 01:09:29.020 Listen, everybody, have a very happy holidays. 01:09:29.020 --> 01:09:31.620 I'll be back on the 26th Monday. 01:09:31.620 --> 01:09:33.380 We'll get it all cranking again. 01:09:33.380 --> 01:09:35.380 And I'll talk about some more shit 01:09:35.380 --> 01:09:37.820 as Mark Yoshimaru Namcoff would say. 01:09:37.820 --> 01:09:39.860 But it really is true. 01:09:39.860 --> 01:09:44.260 So be good everybody, be healthy, and be very happy. 01:09:44.260 --> 01:09:45.820 Bye. 01:09:45.820 --> 01:09:47.260 Pot show. 01:09:47.260 --> 01:09:49.740 The pot cast cool kids go for.
