It's licensing issues as the pod, as presented by Substack, is in MP3 format.
I see the file is called "transcoded.mp3" so I take it it's Substack who transcodes it into MP3 no matter the uploaded format?
Why they choose that over Opus or Ogg for an "open platform" is beyond me; especially so given that the platform is meant for writing & speech and Opus is a format meant for speech while MP3 is meant for music...
I finally got the chance to put the voice to the persona. Very mellifluous. Sounds like the kind of guy I would like to have a beverage with. He could even bring along Joe Blow.
that was (and is) exactly the problem "it's political" COWARDS because being too afraid to stand up to tyranny is exactly how we lose. It infuriates me
the audio doesn't play on my old laptop with Linux, but plays fine on my iphone. If anyone has trouble listening let me know here in the comments

Another comment: You are correct. The cult's unwillingness to listen does not absolve us of our responsibility.

Mellifluous is one thing I have never before been accused of.
Regardless, that was an educational interview. Pissed me off a bit, hearing the nonsense, but I don't get pissed off for too long. Keep on rockin'.
Thanks.
My thoughts were your voice was very animated , it made for a very lively, interesting discussion, thank you.
Good times, I finally get to put a voice to the the words I have been reading over the past year or so!
