I am a retired government CIO. #Podcast host (Fusion Patrol.) Married, 25+years, kids grown and (mostly) adulting. Citizen #Potawatomi Nation member. #Ebike enthusiast. #Atheist. SciFi & Tokusatsu Fan (Trek, Doctor Who, Blakes 7, Babylon 5, Kamen Rider, Ultraman, and many more.). Love a good crossword or #KillerSudoku. Have an app in iOS App Store (Killer Sudoku Aide.) Probably other stuff but I wasn't expecting the Spanish Inquisition. #Taiwan is a country.

I know there are six million ways to Sunday to get this done, but I'm kind of pleased that I've cobbled together a podcast-posting script that takes my Auphonic output files and:
•Renames and uploads .mp3 to blubrry
•Uploads .vtt transcript and .json chapters to an online location accessible to blubrry
•Extracts my mp3 tag comments and creates draft WordPress post
•Uploads .mp4 version of podcast to YouTube and attached .srt transcript (using previously extracted comments as description)

“When defective cells appeared, Wang asked: “Have you found the root cause?” If yes: “Can you reproduce it?” Then the demand: “Make one hundred cells with exactly the same defect. If you can reproduce the failure one hundred times, identically, then and only then have you understood the mechanism.””
podfeetWith MANY thanks to @LoneLocust for giving me a push and Georg from @auphonic for teaching me how to up my audio game with Auphonic:

Learning About Auphonic Cuts and Noise Suppression - Podfeet Podcasts
A few years ago, I wrote a fairly lengthy explanation of how I use the awesome web service called Auphonic to sweeten the audio for the podcast. Everything you hear has gone through Auphonic. I put a link in the show notes to the article where I explained how Auphonic levels the audio between speakers, […]
For years I’ve been looking at various still photos from the Dalek Masterplan and I always assumed Mavic Chen was another of the wacky aliens featured in the collection.
I had no idea he was in yellow face. The makeup is THAT bad. #eek
@podfeet err, umm. *sheepishly* Fusion Patrol, not Control.
