Hobbies Cost Money - Quit Wasting Your Time
from Ask the Podcast Coach Hosted by Dave Jackson, Jim Collison
Send us feedback/questions via Text It's Labor Day weekend, but Dave and Jim aren't taking one off from the AI rabbit hole — this episode covers everything from free (and not-so-free) transcription services to the moment ChatGPT started recommending third-party apps mid-workflow, plus a candid gut-check for the podcaster who's 89 episodes in and wondering if it's time to quit. Throw in Audacity 4's big redesign, a debate over how often you really need to disclose affiliate links, and a war story about paying influencers gone wrong, and you've got a jam-packed hour of practical advice, real talk, and the usual Dave-and-Jim banter to kick off your holiday weekend.
