Reply To: Vlogs, podcasts and our hobby on YouTube and their (lack of) quality.

Speaking as a podcaster, and one which goes out for free (and makes zero ad revenue) It grinds my gears when other podcasters don’t edit their audio (noise, dead air) and are just generally unprofessional/ignorant/ill informed. DDR only puts out episodes when we have something new to say, and something new to review (we always find something for about 2 or so episodes a month), but it has to be good content.

Video is a higher bar to meet, and I would love to do more video at home, but it is much more effort to edit. And again that is the key. Edit…. just edit edit edit. Video filled up with childish banter does my head in.

Edit:

The extra thing that really gets my goat is the kickstarters and patreons for podcasts so they can buy apple this and that – errrm podcasts are not that intensive to edit, and the software is free.
