"My view for the future is that the way that we keep podcasting open and protect the precious medium that we have is to help podcasters get paid with this open payment protocol called Lightning. And also now with Nostr to help listeners and podcasters and whoever's interested in podcasts to share episodes, discover new episodes, have conversations around episodes without that being locked to any one app or platform or service."On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks Oscar Merry, founder of Fountain Podcasting. We talk about Podcasting 2.0, Fountain integrating Nostr, Bitcoin, Lightning, value for value, the future of decentralized media, and a whole lot more.

Welcome to the The Confab, the term derives from "confidential talk", which was commonly used in the Prohibition Era for meetings and conversations that took place in the smoky, rule-breaking speakeasies of that time.The informal, privacy focused and clandestine nature of Ungovernable Misfits lends itself to these discussions. So, grab a seat and a stiff drink from the concealed bar, listen and revel in the conversation.On this episode, Fountain creator and developer, Oscar Merry joins Max for a coffee to discuss all things podcasting, Nostr and Fountain.SHOW DISCUSSIONOscar shares insights into the goals of Fountain, particularly in enhancing user experience with Lightning and making podcasting more accessible and valuable for both listeners and podcasters.We also explore the challenges and opportunities presented by Nostr, a protocol that Oscar believes will be the social layer of open podcasting. We discuss the integration of Nostr into Fountain, the potential for cross-app interactions, and the importance of an open, collaborative approach to podcasting. Oscar addresses the complexities of key management in Nostr and shares his optimism about the protocol's future.Throughout the conversation, we reflect on the importance of community feedback and the role of open-source collaboration in challenging major platforms like Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Oscar's commitment to improving Fountain and his vision for the future of podcasting 2.0 powered by Lightning and Nostr are both inspiring and promising.IMPORTANT LINKS https://freesamourai.comhttps://p2prights.org/donate.htmlhttps://ungovernablemisfits.comSHOW SPONSORSFOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates.

“What we need to move to is just removing the attention signal as the input to the algorithm and using a value-signal instead; because, then we can still have ranked feeds, but they're no longer driven by a metric that doesn't really align with the content creator, and doesn't really align with the listener.”— Oscar MerryOscar Merry is the Founder of Fountain podcasts.

Ever considered what your attention is worth when you indulge in the latest podcast episode? You might just find out as we compare the value of podcast content with the likes of Netflix and Spotify, suggesting a fair satoshi range that listeners could shell out per minute of audio bliss. With podcasting's landscape constantly shifting, we're joined by Edward Brawer, CEO of Podcast AI, to delve into how automation and AI tools are spicing up content creation and answering listener queries with flair. Fountain's co-founder, Oscar Merry, also drops by to share the exciting new updates of the Fountain 1.0 app, which promises to elevate user experience and listener engagement to new heights.In our conversation with Edward, we unearth the prospect of B2B opportunities within the bustling podcast business, discussing the recent expansion moves by Podcast AI and the potential of pre-production support using AI technology. On the flip side, we're also looking into Spotify's foray into audiobooks and how their latest venture might shape the industry's future. Plus, we give a hat tip to Kate Cocker's "Everyday Positivity" for her 2000th episode and her charitable efforts with UNICEF, and we travel the world in a round-up of global podcast happenings—from Adalicious's new US representation to the rise of erotic podcasts in Germany.Wrapping up, we tackle the evolution of podcasting tools with updates on Activity Pub support, Blueberry's Value Block Time Splits, and Libsyn's commitment to Podcasting 2.0. As we recount the year's predictions and set our sights on the future, we leave you with a treasure trove of insights to mull over during our short break.

Not just content with revolutionising podcasting, how about music as well? In Ep #36 I am covering how Sir Spencer and Able Kirby implement v4v on their show ‘AbleKraft'. The unique aspect they bring is a way of using this as a feeder show to link to their main project, an album they released as a value for value podcast called ‘Stay Awhile' by Able and The Wolf. A creative way of keeping the feedback loop whilst not messing with the format of how a music album is normally structured. A big shoutout to Petar The Encourager and Oscar Merry for supporting this week, amazing people for sure!

Why did Juan cause a car crash?In Episode #315 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: the random as disturbance on a narrow road, our disagreement on being left behind and getting overwhelmed by new tech, the Tim Ferriss episode with Balaji, slang and how words get invented or adopted, Oscar Merry's podcast app and why clipping is awesome and whether it is better to let niggling injuries fully heal or to push through because there is not enough time to be injured.As always, we hope you enjoy.

Are there any current trends that will impact history as much as 9/11, COVID, social media or the iPhone?In Episode #314 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: how this topic could be easy to confuse, how history is quite subjective, what type of moments matter to an individual, why current hot topics aren't necessarily historical events, the practical benefit of appreciating the moment, making predictions will necessary involve failure and why Juan didn't particularly like this framework for thinking.A big thanks to Joey Broad Shoulders, Petar the Wise Old Man, Oscar Merry & floydianslips for supporting the show.

In our interview with author Brian P. Simpson, we cover these important ideas from his newest book (A Declaration and Constitution for a Free Society: Making the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution Fully Consistent with the Protection of Individual Rights). From https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781793612205/A-Declaration-and-Constitution-for-a-Free-Society-Making-the-Declaration-of-Independence-and-U-S-Constitution-Fully-Consistent-with-the-Protection-of-Individual-Rights (Rowman & Littlefield's book page): What are individual rights? What is freedom? How are they related to each other? Why are they so crucial to human life? How do you protect them? These are some of the questions that A Declaration and Constitution for a Free Society answers. The book uses Objectivist philosophy—the philosophy of Ayn Rand—to analyze subjective, intrinsic, and objective theories of rights and show why rights and freedom are objective necessities of human life. This knowledge is then used to make changes to the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution. Through these changes, the book shows the fundamental legal requirements of a free society and why we should create such a society. It demonstrates why a free society is morally, politically, and economically beneficial to human beings.Call-to-Action: After you have listened to this episode, add your $0.02 (two cents) to the conversation, by joining (for free) https://secular-foxhole.haaartland.com/ (The Secular Foxhole Town Hall).

Pun Intended. Today we have with us http://www.raymondniles.com (Raymond Niles) and https://twitter.com/heavy_rail (Kyle Kirschling), who talk about their unique idea of Substeading. From their https://www.substeading.com (website): Imagine if getting to the airport were as easy as riding an elevator, if trains were as clean and comfortable as a limousine, if it took half as long to get anywhere in the city.

Oscar Merry is building something very interesting. He is using the power of the Lightning Network to allow content creators to monetize their work with micropayments. On this episode of The Your Life! Your Terms! Show we discuss why he's doing this, the value of distributed content platforms and how micropayments are now maturing enough to be a serious factor in the economy. We believe in riding trends and what Oscar is building with his Fountain podcasting app (available on iOS and Android) looks like the beginning of a trend we want to ride. Enjoy the show!

If you've been listening to us recently, you can't have missed us waxing lyrical about Fountain app (www.fountain.fm), so, we were delighted that Oscar Merry accepted our invitation to come on and tell us all about it. We were aware of some of the implications of podcasting 2.0, but this episode will give you an insight into Oscar's vision for the future and how we all benefit. We talk about: The Bitcoin back-story starts with a tech/engineering background, the ignored introduction by a friend and a bullishness for podcasts and audio in general Building games on Amazon Alexa Fountain started with the idea of curating pods with clips (playlists) and integrating Bitcoin wasn't part of the plan How to discover and share the best insights from podcasts The open nature of podcasting 2.0 Fountain contributing to Bitcoin orange-pilling way faster than most of us managed Streaming Bitcoin (sats) over the Lightning network to your favourite creators “Boosts” (a tip with a message) to help you connect with your audience Putting the control of the listening experience in the hands of the listener Are podcasters adjusting their content to reflect the interests of their listeners Using listener comments in show content Why the advertising model will not be replaced by value-for-value (yet) Supporting podcast guests with splits Exposing podcasters to Bitcoin for the first time Decentralisation and interoperability of podcasting apps Streaming sats becoming normal in all disciplines Lightning comments enabling listeners to help other listeners and hosts interact with their listeners Brisket's Doxx Jar Hats 400 Sats Brendo 300 Sats Daz 100 Sats – paid!

MONTY PYTHON: Spam SketchSPECIAL GUEST: Marty Michael - CEO & Co-Founder Gumball Gumball has raised $10 million to expand its podcasting host-read advertising platform. The company was built by the team behind the Headgum Podcast Network. NEWS: Podcast host Acast is still spamming podcasters, even co-founders of rival podcast networks, or hosts of shows that ended three years ago. Libsyn's Rob Walch correctly notes "Friends don't send emails starting 'hello friend' (as Acast's do), and they don't spam". Hypocritically, Acast actually offers its customers a tool to obfuscate your email address in your RSS feed, so that it will "help our podcasters avoid unwanted spam". It's a problem the company is more than aware of, then. "Email marketing is one part of our marketing strategy", said Ross Adams, the company's CEO, when we last asked.Oscar Merry has suggested Lightning Comments as a potential solution for cross-app commenting: using "boostagrams" as a method of sending comments. We like this idea; and the spec is simple enough for us to code it; so, you'll find a "comments" section on every update in Podnews's web version. You can also see those comments in the Fountain app.Podnews are also, as of today, permanently supporting the socialInteract tag for Twitter (and will probably pull in those comments to the page, too, at some stage). A new version is up: 1.0.0-beta. This release comes with bug fixes and an exciting feature: WebSub! From now on, Castopod will push your newly published episodes directly to open subscription hubs, meaning that they will get broadcasted instantly after publication.A gateway from WebSub to PodPing. WebSub.watch allows any WebSub-enabled podcast to push notifications to Podping. Please note that WebSub.watch is still at an early stage. Contact us if you want more information: hello@websub.watch.Podcast hosting company Transistor now supports multiple languages for its built-in podcast websites.EMAIL: comments@podland.news

This episode's guest is Oscar Merry, co-founder of Fountain, a popular Podcasting 2.0 app for sharing clips of your favorite podcast segments. The app is also value4value enabled, which means that it allows you to support your favorite show directly, by streaming and boosting sats. As you may have noticed, we at Seetee are big advocates of the emerging bitcoin lightning-enabled value4value model. We believe that this model is the future of free expression and digital media monetization, and so we love to see other teams working hard to build it into reality. With each of our shows, all the sats that are streamed or boosted by our listeners—thank you, by the way—are divided between everyone involved in the show, including John, our sound producer, our guests, and sometimes others. Most often our guests opt to have their stream directed to charities and other non-profit organizations, such as the HRF. For this episode, Oscar is directing his stream to a bitcoin fund that he and his team has set up. The sats in this fund are donated to new users who do not yet hold any bitcoin but are interested in exploring the world of lightning and streaming sats. Thus, if you choose to give value back while listening to this episode, know that you are not only helping to onboard new bitcoiners, but also reducing the friction of getting started in the value4value ecosystem. --- Follow Oscar: Twitter: @MerryOscar Website: fountain.fm Follow John & Seetee: Twitter: @johnkvallis & @Seetee_io Website: seetee.io Use Podcasting 2.0: Breez.Technology fountain.fm NewPodcastingApps.com Value4Value.io Sats Streamed to: Fountain Onboarding Fund

Consistency is often key in podcasting, and your show's format is part of that. But your format is simply a tool that helps you better tell the story to your audience. Sometimes, a different tool may get better results. Today's missive is for podcasters who adhere to a format. I'm one of them demonstrated on over 500 episodes thus far, my short form, single topic, monologue episodes. But here's a reality check my chosen format, like your chosen format, is just a construct. Chat cast. Headline rundown. Poem of the day. Narrative deep dive. These are all simply constructs. Extremely helpful constructs that better craft the information presented in your episode, sure. But what's more important? The information/story you're imparting/telling or the format you've chosen to tell it in? If you said “the format”, then I'm afraid we can't be friends. Or you need to buy me several beers as you attempt to convince me of your position. Your audience is not here because you interview guests on your podcasts. They're here for the information. Your audience isn't here because you do a solo show. They're here for the insight and inspiration. Your audience isn't here because you include exactly three short headlines in your daily news roundup. They're here to be caught up. So sometimes, on occasion, and when it is really, really warranted, it's OK to temporarily eschew the construct if a different format better serves or compliments the story you're telling with your overall podcast. ----- Boostagram Corner Thanks to Rich, Regina, Oscar, and Dane.

I quite dislike the word ‘monetisation'.In Ep #10 we're having a dive into why value should not be synonymous with money, and that they are actually completely different concepts. Is linking every activity and everything to money a good idea? What actually matters to you? How can we make money exit the conversation?Timeline:(0:00) - Intro(0:55) - Definition of monetisation(4:23) - Obsessed over the wrong thing(8:38) - Boostagram Lounge(10:57) - What do you actually value?Big thanks to Chad F and Oscar Merry for helping to support the show, very much appreciated!Value 4 Value Support:Boostagram: https://www.meremortalspodcast.com/supportPaypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/meremortalspodcastConnect with Kyrin & Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcast.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/jjfq9eGReUTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/meremortalspodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcast
One on One:Fountain is described as a social podcast player that makes great audio content discoverable - and helps podcast creators monetize their content through the Bitcoin Lightning Network. One of the special highlights of Fountain Podcasts is its beautiful UI. There is something to be said about the aesthetics of Fountain and its seem less integration of Lightning.
Have you ever bought something you didn't need (or even want) just to show some love?In Ep #7 I explore why donating right now can be a pain in the ass and how this might change in the future. I recount some personal experiences trying to give value to people who deserve it but had an annoying time doing this. However, with the value for value model and the technology behind cryptocurrencies this is making it easier to donate and to change the mentality behind donations.Boostagram shoutout to Oscar Merry from Fountain.FM (a Podcasting 2.0 app) that gave some value to the V4V podcast, much appreciated!Value 4 Value Support:Boostagram: https://www.meremortalspodcast.com/supportPaypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/meremortalspodcastConnect with Kyrin & Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcast.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/jjfq9eGReUTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/meremortalspodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcast
Me, N U baby. On Ep #5 we'll be examining why the V4V model can be thought of as a fine dining experience. Dave Jones gives us his thoughts on this analogy and I deconstruct how value is tied to feeling, why one party must make the first move by providing value from the get go and how expectation of receiving value can change across cultures.A big thanks to Oscar Merry and an anonymous booster for supporting the show.
