Haven't started listening yet, but I will soon, so I hope there are more episodes to come!
Why haven't I already been listening, and what is changing that? My answer to the first part is the same as many others'....
Is this available via standard podcast apps?
While normal videos should certainly aim to be short, the audience for podcasts typically wants something lengthy, as they listen to them during long commutes or work.
I agree, but then I think YouTube is a bad delivery service. Not everyone has mobile data or has WiFi on their commutes, so I think it's important that it's easy to be able to download the podcast and listen to it offline
It is easy to be able to download YouTube videos (or just the audio if you want that).
I did download the podcast to listen to it, but I shouldn't have to go to another site or use other software to make a podcast listenable for me. Also, if it's so easy, then my suggestion to make the podcast also available in a downloadable audio format should be easy for BA or Seprix to implement, too. And this isn't even considering the extra level of convenience that would come with integration into iTunes, Google Play, or other similar services. That might be a bit more difficult, though; I don't know.
I may have been too harsh on YouTube podcasts in my original comment, but I think it's a reasonable suggestion that they should consider multiple formats.
Yeah I think it's fine to have it primarily in video format, but if I can't get the audio via Overcast or whatever it's probably a no go for me. Otherwise I'm not really sure it's a podcast, which is fine, but then just call it a youtube channel.
I agree with this. There are several podcasts I listen to that are just the audio of a video show. While my preference is for podcasts that are designed to be audio-only, these audio-from-video versions are usually pretty good.
But yeah, if it's not somewhere my podcatcher will see it (in this case, the iOS Podcasts app and iTunes), there's less than a 1% chance I'll ever listen to it.
Have you guys made any more moves towards getting the podcast up on the iTunes store (where basically all podcast apps can get it from?) I love podcasts to listen to on commutes and in the lab off of my phone but I'm never going to sit in front of a computer and listen to an hour+ podcast on youtube.
This. As an avid podcast listener and sometimes Dominion player, I'm very much in the market for this, but not if I have to go on Youtube for it.
How come I cannot find it on iTunes or Overcast yet? I really want to listen to it!
This won't be a part of my life until i can play it in my car without using a web browser on my phone. Has such a moment occured? I'll install the nichest of apps.
I agree this needs to be a real podcast and on real podcast providers soon, there just needs to be a place to host mp3s and an RSS feed.
Today I had a great idea for a website I could build: you could enter a YouTube channel URL, and then the site would convert the channel feed into a podcast feed. Now, many of my ideas only go as far as a half-baked bit of code on my computer that takes hours to get up and running when I return to develop it further after the initial burst and I've forgotten how any of it works, and most of the rest of my ideas are things that actually already exist. Fortunately for all of us, this was the latter.
I found podsync.net, and got a URL for the podcast that I was able to load into the Apple Podcasts app with the "Add a Podcast by URL..." feature, so hopefully this works with Overcast and other podcast apps too.
https://podsync.net/k7oYrtcSSThe feed at this URL does consist of full videos--so mobile users may still want to take care to not use cellular data when downloading episodes via the podsync link--but playing only the audio with the screen off works just fine on my iPhone.
