002. Idea Economy

In this episode, we unpack the basics of what a podcast actually is: an RSS feed, hosted media, and the open ecosystem that lets apps, indexes, and listeners all work together without a central gatekeeper. We walk through the roles of podcast hosts, the Podcast Index, and modern podcast apps, then explain why we chose Podhome for this show and how features like chapters, transcripts, podrolls, funding tags, live notifications, and value time splits make Podcasting 2.0 so exciting to build on.We also connect the dots between podcasting, Bitcoin, Nostr, and AI-assisted “vibe coding.” I share how tools like Boost Me Bitch, Music Side Project, and the Candr website fit into the broader mission, while Reed reflects on why Nostrs protocol-first design pairs so naturally with podcastings interoperability. We close by reading boosts from episode one, thanking everyone who supported the launch, and teeing up a live experiment with value-for-value music by sending sats directly to Matt Finlay during the song at the end of the episode.Podhome: https://www.podhome.fm/docs/podhome-aiPodcast Index: https://podcastindex.orgPodcasting 2.0: https://podcasting2.org/Local Bitcoiners Podcast: https://localbitcoiners.com/Boost Me Bitch: https://www.boostmebitch.com/Only Boosts: https://www.onlyboots.social/Fountain: https://fountain.fm/Podcast Guru: https://app.podcastguru.io/CurioCaster: https://curiocaster.com/Castamatic: https://castamatic.com/Podverse: https://podverse.fm/
