Just wrote a new post for Podcast Standards Project members:
"We need to play the game on the field: understand what genuinely motivates podcasters and listeners and respond with features they care about.
But, we're also trying to change the game."

@litchi_fruit und @krlksmnt waten durch die Untiefen der #Geopolitik, wo jede Antwort neue Fragen gebiert und die Wahrheit kostbarer wird als Gold.

Diesmal sprechen @litchi_fruit und @krlksmnt über den derzeitige administrativen #Putsch der rechtsextremen #Trump-Regierung und dessen massive Konsequenzen für Menschen in den #USA, Europa und Deutschland.

P.S not a fan of the fountain music choices to much rock and not enough soul but everyone has different tastes ;-) #gopodcasting
