A podcast app that crowdsources listener timestamp annotations like • 32:15 to 34:00 is ads • Hosts spend 12 minutes talking about their lives • The last 20min is a promotion for a different podcast then supports per-show settings like "skip ads and off topic chitchat"

Theory on why chitchat infects podcasts: Biggest fans like chitchat and engage w/ it, positively reenforcing. The rest lose interest slowly, eventually dying off silently. Only a weirdo would email a podcast they feel neutral about to tell them to stop chitchatting.

Maybe a better way to provide active feedback on podcasts instead? Or a more direct way for hosts to interact with guests while live? If the hosts knew chitchat = bad, they would probably stop

Yeah, I think something that strips it out would be the strongest feedback. Relevant followup:https://twitter.com/backus/status/1037464411416326144 …
