We're getting low on spaghetti and we're already out of walls. Radio, but with pictures @UCLA_TFT. Novocollegian. They/them 🏳️‍🌈

Last year, I released BELLWETHER, a podcast of speculative journalism. It's everything I know about radio, sci-fi & being a human.

I hope you listen over Pride—for its imagining of future queer ancestors, and the struggle for trans health in the present.

Hello old pals, I’m heading over to the bluer sky place (@greenspan) and am also on the gram place (@os_greenspan) let’s hang out and catch up

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

@kenrudin Ken, I used to work with you at NPR. Influential journalists who "didn't have political views" is how we got here. The Post opted out of an endorsement for the same reason as NPR—fears of alienating big donors + looking too liberal. Now we're here.

@meat__angel Nicole Kidmans gonna fix it

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

@bartona104 whoop there it is

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

IYKYK!

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

I call podcasting "radio", and I call this place "twitter dot com."

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

@rabonour no one ever said it was designed well!

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

learning that What I Missed On Twitter was venture capitalists/podcasters having nuanced feelings about school shooting disinformation. cool.

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

@macohibs Don’t do it for the listeners.

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

podcast = media file + rss feed

spotify is not podcasting. apple is not podcasting. joe rogan is not podcasting. most things that people say is podcasting is not actually podcasting.

@matthdonovan tbh research on normal people detransition is more important now more than ever.

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

@matthdonovan there are detransitioners, and there are detransitioners who are opportunists and sellouts.

a venn diagram, but not a circle.

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

@openendedfilms @ashleyrcarman @heavyweight @nytimes @aoamovie move quick

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

something to think about:

years ago, my friend & favorite musician @emperorx had a podcast called DIRTCASTER/SONGSPEWER. he'd record a song and put it on the feed whenever he felt like it.

no intro, no credits, definitely no ad buys.

let's have more of that. now is the time

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

i don't know if my tweets go anywhere anymore. the algo punished me for going quiet long ago.

but on the off-chance you get this and you're among the laid off: i'm so, so sorry. you'll get through this.

and: now is the time to make the thing you've been dreaming about.

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

so chronically offline i thought #dwts was DOWN WITH THE SYSTEM

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

just gonna drop this here again

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

in case anyone had any doubts, podcasting has officially, extremely, undeniably jumped the shark https://t.co/C8iB3kyeqR

@trufelman hi from film school

[sam greenspan @samlistens]

Been thinking a lot about descriptors. If Hamas is not a sovereign nation, then Israel can’t really be at “war” with them. And so if the Israeli state is in a conflict with territory over which they control—wouldn’t that make this a civil war?
