The feed is a real-time, personalized newsfeed of the latest podcast episodes, guest appearances, ratings/reviews, curated lists, follows, and more from across your favorite shows.
@lachlankirkwood Thanks so much! There's a lot of information to get across and so many use cases, so we had to work hard to create an interface that suited everyone. We've iterated over the design already to make the content easier to consume and we'll continue improving it as we get more feedback (negative and positive) from our users. Really excited to see people using it!
This is going to be the future for finding podcasts, really worth the time setting up for any fellow creators. It has a feature that allows you to note other podcasts you have been a guest in. Really great for getting exposure to your story across the podcastting world! Please keep this going.
(I am not able to find where to create my Podchaser badge as seen in the blog post, is this still an active feature?)
@steven_fage Hey Steven! If you've claimed your podcast you can go to the Marketing tab in your podcast management page (head to My Podcasts then click Manage). From there you can create a badge from a number of options, and the ratings will stay up to date as you get new ones!
Obsessed with what @podchaser is building - it is extremely needed and useful for everyone in the Podcast ecosystem. Look forward to see PodChaser's evolution in 2020 and beyond.
Hello, hello! I'm Bradley - one of the founders and CEO of Podchaser, writing you from Louisville, KY.
Podchaser was born on a Reddit thread in r/podcasts discussing the ability to rate and review individual podcast episodes. From that thread, I met our CTO Ben, a talented, bearded developer in Australia.
After putting our heads together, we assembled a team from across the globe and decided to tackle a much more ambitious project - becoming the agnostic source of crucial metadata in podcasting. We got to building custom lists with annotations, a universal ratings system, a crowd-sourced credits system now boasting 3M+ credits, easy ways to follow friends, and more!
Now, all of that hard work comes together with The Feed! The goal of The Feed is to unearth the goldmine of long-forgotten backlog content while also displaying what's new and topical in podcasting. We hope you enjoy and we'll be hanging around for any questions!
Boomer lives!
@bradley_davis just created an account and started following a few podcasts. So far, I love it! My question - will there be an app? I tend to actually listen to most podcasts on my iPhone not while at my desk/computer.
@brandy_reaves Eventually, yes. It should be pretty easy to use as a mobile site, too
We'll also be integrating our ratings/reviews into other player apps
Perfect type of platform that podcasting needs to keep gaining popularity and listeners. Great platform and gorgeous UI experience. Bradley is gorgeous too ;)
