    I’d like to get back to podcasting but I need a tool to create RSS feeds

    I stopped podcasting at the end of June this year. I was podcasting for the better part of 3 years and produced a weekly music podcast called Sats and Sounds for 100 episodes and almost 2 years without missing a week. I ended the other podcasts to focus on Sats and Sounds and then stopped…

    Start9 Server update

    Since I could not figure out how to get sats out of Alby (Lightning Network) back on-chain (Bitcoin blockchain), I decided to get the ball rolling on my Start9 Bitcoin node and purchased $100 in Bitcoin using Cash App. I didn’t want to spend more money buying Bitcoin.

    Cherry On Top – Ainsley Costello – Music Experiment Part 2

    Let’s see if I can get it right this time. The last time out I think I published my RSS feed with a mistake in the song’s GUID. This time out, using Podcasting 2.0’s last episode’s RSS feed as a guide, I confirmed which GUIDs to use. So before I hit Podping to publish my…

    My last music experiment failed

    I thought I set everything up properly but for some reason it didn’t work when using podcast apps compatible with remoteItem and valueTimeSplit. What I’ve done to make up for any problems is I put the song I used in my value block. So if anyone plays that episode most of the sats will go…
