@Codie_Sanchez A massive congratulations to you both.
We have 2 little ones and had one miscarriage on the way. So horrible to go through and normalised on the medical side which made it even worse. Congratulations again

@NiallKiely20VC would love to see some examples of these deals and memos you sent through

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@NiallKiely20VC Incredible story and determination.

@MillyTamati @xandwhyspace Members only or open to those curious about joining too?

@aidancramer Probably back when NFTs were still a thing 🐰

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@9ranty Killing it with content and examples recently. The B-roll example was so good. On my list to try out soon

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@LouiseDSadeleer This is amazing. Planning on trying to get into video creation and this is the exact type of thing that would really help as I wouldn't know where to start.

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

Podcasting is a one-way game.

You broadcast out and hear almost nothing back.

Downloads tell you someone pressed play.

They don’t tell you if the new format landed.
If the guest was a hit.
If everyone skipped the 12-minute ad read.
You might hear from the loudest 1% of listeners.
Everyone else stays silent.

Which means most podcast decisions are based on guesswork, not feedback.

@arronflashman Tell me more

@LauraModiano @OpenAI Congratulations, sounds like a really interesting role and I love the founding belief / mission.

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@ramykhuffash What did you end up doing? Pretty banging domain that probably lead to few products

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

This is awesome. I’ve used a similar platform before and even considered building one for a niche. One thing I noticed was missing info becomes a real limiter in application questions. Have you found that too?

If so, have you considered a DM-based flow via WhatsApp/SMS where the platform asks follow-up questions for missing application info, the user replies conversationally, the application gets submitted, and the data is stored for next time?

Feels like it could improve CV/cover letter customisation and lead to better outcomes, even if it adds a bit more interaction than click the “magic button” approach but is more of an extended onboarding that a permanent burden.

@SpiceP0dcast This looks great. Not a podcaster myself but can see how helpful this would be, really nice

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

Made a thing: https://t.co/KwLGikaUd2, a tool for putting polls in podcast show notes.

Easier to show than explain, here's a live one: https://t.co/QXAAbReLEH

Podcasters get almost no signal on what their audience actually thinks of an episode. Built Pontus to fix that, polls you can drop straight into your show notes.

@arronflashman So sorry to hear that Arron. Take care

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@AlexJonesax @rawkode 👋

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@pontusab Massive congratulations

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@sairahul1 Saved to watch later. Where there any specific bits that jumped out? What take aways have you implemented or plan to? I find so many inspiration or helpful things actually fall through the cracks so intrigued by what actually sticks

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@LinusEkenstam Incredible

[Patrick @patrickallenxyz]

@samuelrdt Nice. Are there any limitations to using the mobile vs desktop or is feature parity?
