Show Notes
JRE on Spotify
- Continued from *Encounter 8
Technical difficulties
- Joe's Mac died after recording the episode with Adam Curry, causing delays
- Motherboard fried, fortunately drives should be okay
- Fully loaded Mac is big bucks!
Klingon studio
- Joe's new Austin studio looks like some kind of sci-fi abortion
- Red walls with metallic panels on them make it look like some kind of Klingon studio out of Star Trek fanfic
- For all the supposed bells and whistles, audio isn't the best.
- Both Adam and Joe kept fading in and out through Episode #1533
- Loudness was like -21 dB (LUFS) on the episode
- Mike Tyson episode was more like -14 dB (LUFS) for the loudest parts
- We target -14 dB LUFS for our own show
Adam Curry appearance
- Continued from *Encounter 8
- There was some social media chatter that the episode might be censored or skipped, due to the delays in getting it out
- Released in the afternoon of 2020-09-08 Tue on YouTube and Spotify
Podcasting
Podcast Index, Podcasting 2.0
- New venture of Adam Curry (The Podfather) and Dave Jones (creator of the Freedom Controller)
- Free and open directory of podcasts, to limit the power that companies like Apple and Spotify already have in the podcasting space
- Official podcast for Podcastindex.org, hosted by Adam Curry and Dave Jones
Our own show
Podcast directories
- We are now showing up in a number of podcast directories (Apple Podcasts being the outlier)
- Can't currently get added to Apple's directory due to technical issues with coldacid's Apple ID
Website
- Show description is a bit more detailed
- There's a new slogan for the podcast (unilaterally decided by coldacid): "Geeking out on anime, games, and tech."
- Sadly only present in the RSS, because the website built-in theme is pretty crap

Episode orders
- Different episode orders for TV broadcast order, chronological order, and DVD order
- AbleKirby is strongly for the chronological order
- coldacid accepts chronological order but thinks TV broadcast order also makes sense
- Religious war? Emacs versus vi!

JJ Abrams ruins...
