Esta semana en La Descarga: TargetSpot se expande a audiencias en América Latina, Studio Ochenta brinda una guía para hacer podcasts de ficción, Blubrry le da un nuevo giro a los kits de medios, Twitter está construyendo un reproductor de podcasts, el creador de Overcast tiene problemas con el uso de anuncios dinámicos, y el cofundador de Anchor afirma que la tecnología RSS restringe la innovación.  Este lunes, Podnews cubrió un anunció de TargetSpot acerca de un paso prometedor hacia más diversificación en los podcasts. La empresa de tecnología publicitaria está abriendo en Miami, Florida una oficina que se enfocará en América Latina bajo el liderazgo de Angelica Potes. El director de ingresos, Alexandre Ouhadi, dijo: “Estamos contentos de finalmente estar presentes físicamente en el mercado latinoamericano. Hemos creado asociaciones increíbles con editores líderes. Este es el momento adecuado para lanzar oficialmente. El audio está creciendo rápido, por lo que es una gran oportunidad para que los anunciantes aprovechen su presupuesto de medios digitales a través de este atractivo medio”. La diversidad en el idioma, la etnia y la ubicación geográfica es la forma en que se expande la industria de los podcasts. Creadores latinos están representados bien en comparación con la población estadounidense. Brindar oportunidades de ingresos para aquellas audiencias provee la capacidad de construir nuevos negocios para capturar dichos ingresos. Esto es crecimiento sano para la industria. ¡La guía fabulantástica! así se llama la guía exhaustiva para hacer un podcast de ficción que publicó Studio Ochenta la semana pasada en español. La galardonada casa de producción detrás varios exitosos podcasts multilingües y de ficción, incluyendo Mija, Cultureverse, y el show interactivo Azafata en Atacama, subió el PDF de 80 páginas y más de diez capítulos a su sitio de web. Y la buena noticia es que todo se puede descargar, gratis. Si estás en los pódcasts de ficcion o narrativos, no vas a querer perder esta información fabulantástica demasiado útil que detalla, en palabras Lory Martinez, la fundadora de Studio Ochenta,  “... reglas y experiencias que… creemos que debes conocer para que puedas encontrar tu propia manera de hacer un pódcast de ficción y entregárselo al mundo.”  La guía, llena de varias bellas ilustraciones, cubren un espectro amplio de una sonora ficción en pódcast. Se trata de temas desde los roles del equipo de producción, como investigar una idea, y crear un mundo, hasta el diseño sonoro, el casting, y la publicación y distribución del programa. Martinez, empezó con nada, sin equipo de producción y sin mucha experiencia con los podcasts de ficciones, Ella cuenta,  “Cuando decidí hacer Mija, me faltaban muchas cosas: me faltaba experiencia en escribir ficción, me faltaba patrocinio, me faltaban diseñadores sonoros y personas que me ayudaran a hacer la promoción del show… Parecía que me faltaba todo”. Pero después de alcanzar el éxito, ella comparte su sabiduría. Este gesto de una empresa líder en la producción de podcasts como Studio Ochenta demuestra un entorno colaborativo que es saludable para el podcasting.  Un paso adelante para mi, significa un paso adelante para ti. Esa es una actitud que merece admiración. La semana pasada, Blubrry anuncio una nueva manera en que los podcasts podrán presentarse ante nuevos patrocinadores y socios. Según el comunicado de prensa,  “Blubrry está introduciendo algo que no se ha visto en la industria de podcasts al proveer a sus clientes un media kit de podcasts que se actualiza diariamente con información que uno puede personalizar. El kit incluye datos que el usuario proporciona, estadísticas de podcasts, y resultados de las encuestas de audiencias”. Los datos que se pueden incluir en el kit van desde datos fijos que no cambian, como el sitio de web o la fecha de inicio del show, hasta cosas granulares como el recuento de seguidores en las redes sociales, y las descargas mensuales promedias por episodio. Aunque técnicamente no es un kit de medios, esto es un paso adelante para armar a los podcasters con información útil que ellos podrán proporcionar a los anunciantes interesados en evaluar sus shows. Aunque sí falta logotipos e información tradicional de un verdadero kit de medios diseñado para ser atractivo para la prensa, este tipo de kit de medios 2.0 reduce una buena cantidad de trabajo repetitivo. De que nosotros sabemos, esta es la primera vez que una empresa de alojamiento ha automatizado este proceso e incluido estadísticas de descarga reales en el paquete. Por lo general, el proceso es manual y tedioso que requiere actualizaciones periódicas por parte del creador o su representación de ventas para extraer cada dato. Felicidades, Blubrry, por ser el primero en comercializar este gran producto. Les traemos lo último sobre la integración de podcasts en las redes sociales. Ingeniera e investigadora de código Jane Manchun Wong reveló algo interesante. En un tuit, ella anunció “Twitter está creando un reproductor de podcast dentro la aplicación” Adjunto al tweet hay una grabación de pantalla del nuevo reproductor en acción, que muestra a Wong haciendo clic en la imagen del podcast Office Ladies, lo que activa un reproductor de podcast. Para la gente más joven, vale la pena mencionar que Twitter no surgió completamente formado en el mundo. En su forma primordial, el servicio fue originalmente llamado Odeo, un intento en el 2005 de lo que hoy consideraríamos una red social de podcast. Por lo tanto, el podcasting está literalmente en el ADN de Twitter. Este martes, el cofundador de Anchor Michael Mignano subió un blog en Medium llamado “The Standards Innovation Paradox”. O sea, la paradoja de la innovación de estándares”. Dentro, Mignano propone una teoría de que estándares como fuentes RSS en algún tiempo eran útiles, pero se han vuelto restrictivos con el tiempo, ya que todos los servicios adaptan a los mismos estándares y las nuevas incorporaciones también vienen con todas las actualizaciones anteriores. En palabras de Mignano: “Si alguna vez ha buscado en la App Store o en la tienda Google Play una aplicación de podcast, es probable que haya encontrado una oleada de resultados de búsqueda. De alguna manera, esta fragmentación es excelente para los usuarios, porque significa que tienen muchas opciones y flexibilidad en cuanto a qué producto usar para escuchar su podcast. Pero al mismo tiempo, esta fragmentación es mala para la innovación y hace que sea casi imposible innovar en experiencias basadas en RSS, lo que significa que la experiencia de escuchar podcasts se ha mantenido insipido y prácticamente sin cambios durante casi la totalidad de los podcasts.”  El miércoles, James Cridland publicó una refutación en forma de "La paradoja de la innovación de los estándares: ¿es real?" En esta publicación, Cridland lleva a Mignano y busca agregar un contexto externo a la paradoja, principalmente, el hecho de que Mignano trabajó en Spotify después de que compraron Anchor. Durante ese mandato, la empresa se esforzó a reinventar los podcasts de video sin RSS, en lugar de utilizar el método patentado que sigue la propuesta de Mignano de que se requiere tecnología patentada debido a la dificultad de forzar la evolución de un estándar. Según Cridland,  “Sin embargo, Spotify absolutamente podría evolucionar el estándar: porque para abril de 2022, eran lo suficientemente grandes, con al menos un 30% del mercado, para haber establecido el estándar ellos mismos. Podrían haber dicho ‘aquí se explica cómo señalar el activo de video en su fuente RSS, y si hace esto, también obtendrá podcasts de video en Spotify'. Podrían haber mirado la solución existente actualmente para esto, la etiqueta del espacio de nombres alternativo del podcast, y haberla adoptado (y, posiblemente, haberla moldeado según sus necesidades). Pero no lo hicieron”. Cridland continúa y menciona que las decisiones de apegarse a la tecnología propietaria de la caja negra también significan convenientemente que cualquier usuario que desee aprovechar esa nueva tecnología está bloqueado permanentemente en el uso de Anchor como un servicio de alojamiento. A pesar de todas las malas noticias sobre la falta de ganancias, Spotify actualmente lo está logrando hasta cierto punto. RSS es capaz de hacer todo lo que menciona el artículo de Mignano; problemas de los que históricamente se ha quejado incluso antes de la compra. La innovación no se ve sofocada por los estándares, sino por personas y empresas con el poder necesario para adoptar nuevos estándares, que en vez optan por quejarse de tener que compartir espacio y aprovechar eso para lanzar nuevas cajas negras impenetrables. Este martes Marco Arment, creador de la aplicación de podcasts Overcast, abordó una tendencia de reseñas negativas para su aplicación. Todo ocurrió en Twitter, y en cuatro capturas de pantalla él brindó menciones de cuatro diferentes usuarios sobre una abundancia de anuncios discordantes. Algunos se quejaron de la cantidad y la calidad de los anuncios, un usuario afirma que los anuncios estaban tan mal integrados que el cambio de volumen fue tan abrupto que reventó sus tímpanos. Esto preocupa a Arment, en palabras de él: “La inserción de anuncios dinámicos barata y descuidada en los podcasts continúa degradando la experiencia de los oyentes. Ellos culpan a la aplicación, y ese es mi problema con el que lidiar”.  Arment le pregunta a los podcasters que implementan anuncios dinámicos de manera deficiente "¿qué están haciendo?" Bryan Barletta de Sounds Profitable brindó sus opiniones en un tuit de Arment, citando problemas como la limitación de frecuencia, la separación de borradores y otras características relacionadas con la colocación de anuncios de baja calidad  “...no son cuestiones tecnológicas, son decisiones comerciales.” Según Barletta “¿Si, tu alojador de podcast no lo ofrece? Cambia de alojador. Y no compren inventario que no satisfaga sus necesidades”. La implementación descuidada de anuncios dinámicos es una receta para el desastre, y hay muchas pruebas de que los podcasters caen en esa trampa. Con demasiada frecuencia, ese descuido se construye bajo la apariencia de 'automatización', lo que a menudo conduce a pausas publicitarias extrañas agregadas por la empresa de alojamiento llenas de anuncios aún más extraños. Entonces, ¿cuál es la solución. Al final, se trata de tener una estrategia publicitaria y tácticas que sean aceptables para el podcaster, el anunciante y la audiencia también. Y hará que sea menos probable que los oyentes culpen a su aplicación de escucha por algo que no es su problema. Te respaldamos, Marco. La Descarga es una producción de Sounds Profitable. El episodio de hoy fue presentado por Manuela Bedoya y Gabriel Soto, y escrito por Gavin Gaddis. Bryan Barletta y Evo Terra son los productores ejecutivos de La Descarga de Sounds Profitable. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Back for another Summer '22 episode, The Cultureverse reassembles after few weeks that saw the US turn upside down. We kick off continuing our conversation over the new MLS-Apple TV deal and which fans is this good for going forward. With the summer season quieter than usual, we take a look at which transfer moves have made an instant impact even before the Euro season starts. We've already seen Sadio Mane go to Bayern, Gabriel Jesus bringing new faith to Arsenal, and Gareth Bale will be taking his golfing and soccer talents to LAFC! In the 2nd half we take a look at the upcoming Women's Euro, starting Monday and our picks to win, we go into a shaky run for the USWNT that's seen more bad vibes than normal, and in 2UP/2Down we give a special commentary on the recent Supreme Court decisions, including the overturn of Roe v. Wade, and others also damaging to the public and especially people of color. We wrap up Prideteenth on June 30th!

We debate over what this means for MLS and their outlook, especially in a pivotal year as the league still struggles for a solid TV audience.  In the 2nd half of the show we are joined by TK and review the chaos of the UEFA Champions League semifinal 2nd legs, which saw close calls in both matches, including a miracle comeback by Real Madrid in the dying minutes and resulted in Real Madrid and Liverpool reaching the Champions League Final, giving us a rematch of the 2018 Final which saw Real win 3-1.

In this Special Supercut of Ep. 147, we recap the past few weeks where The Cultureverse has traveled watching the first three matches of Charlotte FC, from the season opener in DC, the inaugural Home Opener against LA Galaxy, and the first 85 Derby against the Home Team here in Atlanta, and at about 38:30, we have a very special interview with Charlotte FC defender (and Charlotte native) Jaylin Lindsey, Charlotte FC's Director of Business Operations (and Raleigh native) Darrius Barnes, and Southbound & Crown SG Member (and Cherokee native, and Friend of The Culture) "Pancake" Justin Lee! Before the interview we catch back up with Coach Tony, Greggo, Mean Marc, and Skye as Man United fakes the funk the previous weekend while a certain No. 7 breaks the supposed FIFA all time goals record, and how a conversation with Tampa Bay Tom leads to him deciding to cut his retirement short and declare his return for the 2022 season, all the false sense of security leads to an exit for United from the UEFA Champions League, following Messi & PSG's exit last week by the hands of Real Madrid and work through Tony's mic issues discussing how Mbappe would fit in the Real attack. During the interview with Darrius, Jaylin, and Pancake, we discuss the vibe in the Charlotte community nearing one month into its first season, and the buzz growing now that CLTFC is now live for everyone to see, and where they see the progress in spite of the team still searching for their first ever win. With Jaylin we talk about how it feels as a Charlotte native to represent his hometown team and state at the MLS level, Pancake provides insight on what is the aim for the supporter atmosphere inside Bank of America Stadium, and the crew goes into where does the team go from here with continuing to grow the fan base in Metrolina after breaking the MLS single game attendance with 74,479 fans attending the opener against the Galaxy, and we get into NCAA Tournament picks and if Darrius' Blue Devils can get one more for Coach K on the way out. Also included in the show are some of the Culture Cam interviews we shot during the Charlotte pre-game tailgate. In the Episode are our interviews with Ben from QC Royals, LaShawnda, and also noted Arsenal supporter Troopz from the Back Again Podcast, who was also in town for the match. Rounding out the episode we finally have a discussion with our ATL natives Tony and Skye over what is "Atlanta" following Omeretta's hit song release (and her appearance hitting the ATLUTD Golden Spike this past Sunday), and in 2UP/2Down we bid Coach Tony safe travels in his upcoming vacation, the NWSL preseason and upcoming schedule release, and some behind the scenes ratchetness from the Charlotte trip AND MORE!!

We also chop it up on the new hire of Ezra Hendrickson as Head Coach of the Chicago Fire, giving MLS currently a record three Black head coaches, though still pushing on ways to increase on that number and making avenues for all coaches to gain greater access to licensing in the US. In the second half, we give our thoughts on Man United's hire of interim Manager Ralf Ragnar- we mean RANGNICK, and if he can bring things to United to a proper focus following a 1-1 draw against Chelsea and upcoming match against Arsenal. We close out with debating on the validity of Leo Messi winning a record 7th Ballon D'or despite a lackluster club season with both Barcelona and PSG, Eduoard Mendy getting snubbed for Keeper of the Year, we pay tribute to two Brothers in the Culture lost this past week- Memphis Rapper Young Dolph and Fashion Icon Virgil Abloh and in 2Up/2Down we comment on the Ahmaud Arbery verdict, coaching chaos in College Football, merch designing, AND MORE!!!

On this Thanksgiving Episode of FTCUTD, Greggo and Skye are joined by Cultureverse member Kaiya McCollough, having linked up over the weekend in Louvegas, we recap our trip covering the NWSL Championship between Chicago Red Stars and the Washington Spirit, which saw Washington grab their first NWSL title off the maestro performance from Trinity Rodman. We go thru our experiences in the city, meeting colleagues we've come in contact with on social media, and the vibes felt thru the weekend. But good things don't last long, as news broke late Sunday night that Chicago Head Coach Rory Dames resigned, shortly before a major story broke that Dames was the subject of multiple complaints by several players, including USWNT star (and former CRS player) Christen Press, in which also involve dismissed complaints that went up to the US Soccer Federation office. We discuss that and how the relationship between the NWSL and US Soccer hierarchy (namely former WNT head coach Jill Ellis) fostered an environment that retaliated against those who supported pro-Black agendas. As the league goes into an offseason of uncertainty, we give our exasperated thoughts on what comes next for the league (also be sure to catch a special Shea Butter FC/Diaspora United 2-part pod that goes into this in much deeper detail). In the 2nd half of the show, Kaiya subs out for Gameday Ty, where we go into the first round of the MLS Playoffs, which saw the Home Team go out in a whimper to NYCFC and our frustration with teams playing in Yankee Stadium, and perennial power Seattle go out in a shock shootout loss to Real Salt Lake, and we give our picks on the 2nd round of the playoffs.  Wrapping up the topics we go into the inevitable dismissal of Ole Gunnar Solksjaer at Manchester United following another embarrassing loss, and the potential of Mauricio Pochettino dipping out on PSG to take the United job.  In 2UP/2Down we go into car purchases, Thanksgiving greens, and MORE!!

Given our primary ATL base, the big news kicks off with the Home Team Braves winning the World Series against the Houston Astros earlier in the week and Skye of Shea Butter jumps in to celebrate the win and gives instructions on how we need to celebrate here in the A! Kicking off the soccer talk, we catch up on recent firings in the game such as Nuno Espírito Santo getting sacked by Spurs, and the arrival of Antonio Conte and if Conte can spread his usual magic on a club not known to win trophies in recent memory (one trophy in over 20 years). Also meeting his end was Ronald Koeman at Barcelona, and we debate over whether club legend Xavi can turn things around given the dramatic financial issues at the club. While were away, Newcastle United was finally sold away to the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia and if their significant funds can make Newcastle an attractive location and club for the top players and managers in England and the rest of the world. And throughout all these happenings, despite a hammering against Liverpool and mixed results in the Champions League Ole Gunnar Solkjaer has retained his job at Man United. In the second half of the show, we chat with El and Ty about their recent trip to Detroit to cover an event launch by The Black Star Initiative and Detroit City FC, and the experience felt from the whole weekend. We wrap up with MLS talk going into Decision Day as several spots are still up for grabs in both the East and West conferences.  Before we go into 2UP/2Down, we pay tribute to WSB Atlanta anchor Jovita Moore, who recently passed away from brain cancer.

Nafanua has 3 special tools that she uses: one was for herself, the TaFesilafa'i; one was for her adopted family, Fa'auli'ulito, and the other was called Ulimasao which was used for victory, to end war and bring peace. She is a historic figure that is often cited as being one of the great leaders of Samoa.  This podcast was produced by Studio Ochenta for Trax from PRX and was hosted by Kelly Marie Tran and Yara Shahidi.

Hi Cultureverse Fans! We're off this week but we wanted to share a brand new show that you might enjoy: Milky Way Underground! Lydia and Elijah are going through a lot: Lydia's best friend isn't talking to her, Elijah thinks he might have a crush on his best friend, and their father's alcoholism threatens to tear their family apart. On top of this, Lydia and Elijah are both having stranger and stranger dreams… though neither of them realize their dreams mirror each other's. Then one night, their dad goes missing. In an attempt to find him, Lydia and Elijah head into the subway. But something is… off about the station. Taking the first car that arrives, Lydia and Elijah find themselves in the middle of a far-off creek, with New York City nowhere in sight. Join siblings Lydia and Elijah on a fantastical, surreal journey through a mysterious dreamworld as they search for their missing father. Are the people they meet in this other world really who they say they are? Who—or what—seems to be protecting them? Can they trust their surroundings, or each other, or themselves? Milky Way Underground is a heartfelt journey of self-discovery fit for the whole family. Inspired by the films of Hayao Miyazaki and books like A Wrinkle in Time and The Giver, Milky Way Underground is about both the difficulties and the joy of growing up and becoming yourself. Journey further into the world of the show with bonus interactive episodes, where listeners can truly become a part of Lydia and Elijah's multiple worlds. Cultureverse and Milky Way Underground are part of the TRAX network from PRX. You can listen to both shows on TRAX.FM and wherever you get your podcasts.
