    Why'd You Push That Button - reviewed

    DescriptionWhy’d you like that celebrity photo on Instagram? Why’d you leave that restaurant review on Yelp? Why’d you text in lowercase, or turn on read receipts, or share your location? The Verge’s Ashley Carman and Kaitlyn Tiffany ask the hard, weird, and occasionally dumb questions about how your tiny tech decisions impact your social life

    What I Liked About This EpisodeThe intro does a good job of getting us acquainted with each person's voice and explains what the show is about.
    What I Thought Could Use Some PolishingThe intro has a ton of hiss. I give you a pass cause it was 2020, but all the "Chit chat" at the beginning would've been better at the end. In the end, I'm not the target audience for this. I love Ashley's articles in The Verge.

    What I Liked About This EpisodeSome really good advice given through personal stories
    What I Thought Could Use Some PolishingYour audio is boomy (are you using a Blue Yeti ???).
    The first ad was very long, and when you followed it up with a second long at (that sounded like it was for the same product?), that was enough for me.
    You really like the phrase, "You guys." I'm sitting in my room alone. I'm the only one here.

    Listener FeedbackWe got some feedback from Brad Shreve:
    I hope you've been well. I'm dropping you an email because I rarely disagree with you, but I think you missed the mark on Shadow Clock Reviewed on the 2/14 episode of The Podcast Rodeo Show.
    The kitchen garbage at the beginning floored me because I have no idea why anyone would leave that in, but once she got past that, she nailed it, IMO. She set it up well, teased me so I wanted to hear more, and his background was interesting to me because it all related to eventually becoming a bank robber. You were immediately frustrated when he was talking about fishing on the Mississippi whereas I knew right away it would lead to bootlegging. If I was wrong, it was short enough to give her the benefit of doubt (since it was my first time listening) that it would tie in somehow. 
    From that point up until where you ended it, I think only a few words were wasted because while I would find a story about bank robbing interesting, I'm more fascinated by how he got there. At least as long as it ties in. If he talked about fishing and it was just a story about fishing, then that would have me scratching my head. Unnecessary was her imagery of pelicans at Alcatraz. It may have been interesting as part of her take at the end, but it seemed odd, boring, and out of place where she had it.
    There is one other thing where I think she failed - the title. I would never have...

    What I Liked About This EpisodeYou did a good job of establishing your credibility (maybe too much). You talked to one person.
    What I Thought Could Use Some PolishingYou were reading (and it was obvious), your audio was somewhat boomy (A Blue Yeti?), and in general, it moved a bit too slow for me. I would add a "De-esser" as your audio might be a bit too clear.
    You need to put your podcast on your website. If you are relying on people to search for you in Apple, that is a large mistake.

    What I Liked About This EpisodeGreat sound, and an interesting guest. You did a great job of alerting the audience about adult content.
    What I Thought Could Use Some PolishingThere was no show open. I had no idea what I was listening to as a first-time listener. I felt like I had walked into a movie. You somewhat buried the lead, and then when you let the cat out of the bag, I wanted to hear about bank robbing (and you went WAY into his story).
    I assume he wasn't raised by Nuns in a Manson so I was ready to hear about bank robbing. That tease does keep me listening (and got you the Whinny, not the buzzer) but had I not been doing a review show, I would've been pressing the fast-forward button.

    What I Liked About This EpisodeThe recorded intro was good and let me know what the show was about (in a much faster way than the Apple description).
    Your tone of voice is nice and friendly.
    The content was good for an absolute finance beginner.
    What I Thought Could Use Some PolishingNobody in the right mind will ever read that Apple intro. Apple doesn't index the intro so no need to keyword stuff the description. It wreaks a bit of Chat GPT. You could quit with the first paragraph (who is this for, how will the benefit). In your friendly delivery (are there podcasts they deliver in an unfriendly delivery)?
    You are reading and it's obvious. For me, that's a no-go. You read better than most people read, but you're reading.
    There was no personalization. There were no personal stories. There was no RALPH in Ask Ralph. Here again, I sense some Chat GPT. Everything was very high level, "Works for everyone" kind of content. This creates vanilla content (hence the "Meh") rating. It wasn't horrible, but I wasn't running to tell a friend.

The more you know

As a trainer transitioning from working under the supervision of a gym to doing my own business I’ve found a lot of the information on the podcast helpful. I usually learn something new relevant to programming for myself and/or my clients. Good humor matched with good knowledge to share.

Thanks for the Review

I have enjoyed this podcast for a while now and finally decided to submit my own for a review. Thank you Dave, I knew you’d confirm what I was already thinking. I appreciate feedback, good and bad. I believe some coaching may be in order for this podcast host. Although, I now have a nagging desire to edit all of my last episodes. Lol

Addendum: I just listened to your review, Episide 427, of the Purple Pants Podcast. I laughed and your commentary,the whole way thru. You said, “The whole third person thing. I haven’t heard someone talking about themselves in a long time. And Dave Jackson thinks that’s weird!”
Bahahahahahaha. It’s been 30 minutes and I’m still laughing. Thanks.
