Allow me to just throw out that I love the transcript. I know it is a lot of work, but I wish more podcasters would publish them.
I watch/listen to very few podcasts; don't drive regularly, which is where I would normally consume them, and otherwise tend to skip them because so many are a tedious waste of time. Plus, I just prefer text to video.
So, thank you!
Glad you like it! Always helpful to know what's worth the effort :)
Can you help me find the RSS feed? I'm trying to subscribe in a popular iOS podcast player (Overcast) and struggling to find the feed.
Never mind found at: backtracks.fm/ycombinator/ycombinator/feed
They're really not a huge amount of work if you pay a nominal amount to have it done for you. After I edit a podcast, I get mine transcribed by CastingWords, clean it up minimally, and paste it into the blog post I do for the podcast with show notes, etc.) e.g. http://bitmason.blogspot.com/2017/07/red-hat-mark-wagner-on-...
If I want to do a longer blog post based on the interview, it's also nice to just have the transcript to excerpt from.
