Are you ready to tackle the controversial topic of gaslighting in
the podcast industry? This week, we discuss the actions of major
players like Google, Apple, and Spotify, and examine their lack
of support for the wider podcast community. We also share our
thoughts on the recent Podcast Show in London and the
disappointment surrounding YouTube's RSS ingest trial.

We don't shy away from discussing the inadequate financial
support provided by big names like Apple and Spotify. Join us as
we question Apple's secretive approach to supporting events and
their reluctance to provide API access for content creators. We
also dive into the role of the Podcast Standards Group and their
lack of action in challenging these issues and promoting
diversity within the industry.

Finally, we explore the transformative potential of AI in
podcasting, with a focus on Ausha's AI-powered platform and
Buzzsprout's Co-host AI feature. Learn about the benefits of
AI-generated titles, descriptions, and chapter markers, as well
as the importance of partnering with third-party companies for
these services. Don't miss this insightful episode as we navigate
the complex landscape of the podcast industry and share our
thoughts on these pressing issues.
