I’m being slowly sucked into the podcasting world in a way I only quarter-intended. It’s a bit like Twitter. The barrier to self-expression is so significantly lowered relative to longform that your creative energy kinda just leaks there instead of being piped deliberately.

In normal conversation it doesn’t matter because I tend to take long thinking pauses and also others take their turns, but monologues of the sort I favor in podcasts (even when being interviewed) require different tempo management tricks. I guess I’ll have to learn.

Finally part of my ambivalence with the medium is that as a writer first, I appreciate and enjoy well-crafted sentences, and bad ones grate on my ears. Craft takes editing. Transcripts of live audio are bad writing. Maybe the newer editing tools will bridge the quality gap.
