I was on a podcast

Well I guess I might as well give it a shout out since it's about blogging so, yeah what the title says.

Well, as the day winds down I thought I could share the secret I mentioned in my previous weeknotes!

The title should be clear enough, you will be able to hear my wonderful English pronunciation for the first time ever, unless I’ve sent you a voice message sometime ago on Signal or you were one of the 6 or 7 people around that one time I joined someone playing Monster Hunter Freedom Unite on Twitch via a Discord call.

I participated in episode 13 of The Worst Community Report podcast (here’s the RSS feed) and I kind of dread to link it here. Still, I have to admit that I expect some feedback out of it.

For some context. The Worst Community Report is a variety podcast hosted by members of the community on Discord of TWG (The Worst Garbage), which is kind of like a podcast network, mostly just in name and values, there are no ad deals or hosting services and such. Into The Aether, my most listened podcast show, is part of such a place.

Because of this, a fair amount of episodes can lack some context or talk about internal shenanigans that a 3rd party would be aware of unless they spend time in the server like I do. Overall, it has that “internet friends talking about random stuff” feel going for it, which I enjoy.

Honestly, I was super nervous all the time, and I haven’t actually listened to it since the recording, I am so afraid of hearing my voice, I don’t know if my small laughter showing up sometimes when others talked was left in, or that time I broke down midway trying to process what I was even saying lol. It felt like eternity to me, but maybe it wasn’t that bad. Any reassuring words or honest feedback is welcome. 😅

This episode was centered on bloggers, and a few of the TWG Discord members participated. Including:

  • Brent, the main host, who writes about Linux, FOSS and weeknotes. I’ve exchanged emails with him, leading to some cool conversations across a couple months now! I still don’t reply back to the latest one oof.
  • Cassie, who writes plenty stuff, from weeknotes, to blogging, books, technology and life in general. Also her website design is superb, absolutely lovely.
  • Cameron Swingle, who mostly sticks to game reviews, all of which are about super niche titles. I took a look at the Top 25 Games series, and only recognized like 8 of them, crazy stuff.
  • and me.

We talked about how we got started, our blogging setups, and stuff like that, so if you want to, give it a listen! Even if you don’t like my voice, maybe the topic will be enough to keep you interested.

This is it for now, have a good one!
