Value Time Split, PodRoll, Remote Item & New Features at Blubrry – PCI 376

December 21, 2023
Podcasting features are ever evolving

We delve into the intriguing concept of the value time split. This episode is dedicated to exploring how individuals and organizations allocate their time between tasks that generate immediate value and those that promise long-term benefits. How this affects productivity, innovation, and personal growth. Join us as we unravel the complexities of the value-time split, whether you’re a business leader, entrepreneur, or just someone looking to make the most out of every minute, this episode promises to offer valuable perspectives on managing one of our most precious resources: time.


Today’s Hosts: Todd Cochrane and Mike Dell

We have rolled out some new Podcasting 2.0 features and improved some of them. We are going to go over some of the new stuff we have added to Blubrry Publisher, PowerPress and Podcast Mirror.


Value Time Split

Value Time Split is a way to switch out the V4V for a segment of your episode. So if you are doing an interview with another podcaster or playing music that is V4V enabled, you can set the time of that segment and during that segment, you can give another person some of the streaming sats or Boostagrams. Then when that segment is finished, it reverts back to the V4V settings you have on the show normally.


Podroll / Remote Item

Podroll is very similar to the old Blog Roll. This is a way to promote other podcasts in your feed. This one was at the show level. You promote shows (not episodes)

Remote item is a way to put episodes from other shows in your feed that can be shown on some of the new podcast apps (podcastapps.com)


Block

Block has always been there for just Apple Podcasts. We have improved it by adding it to all platforms. So if you want to discourage a particular app from pulling your feed, you can set it to Block in your feed.

Podcast Mirror

We have added Podcasting 2.0 to the Podcast Mirror service. This allows you to get some of the channel-level features even if your podcast hosting company does not support it. It also allows you to use 3rd party stats even if your host doesn’t support it. https://podcastmirror.com


Not Podcasting 2.0 related, but we did release Blubrry Premium podcasting as a one-time add-on to your hosting plan. This allows you to charge for extra content, Early access or ad-free versions of your show. Very similar to Apple Subscriptions, if fact you can do BOTH on Blubrry.
