A delightful app!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I can honestly say Podyssey scratches an itch I’ve had for some time — an app-agnostic community where I can review my newest obsessions and my longtime favourites alike; a platform for discovering new shows and kindred spirits; and my own little nook to collect and curate my own podcast personality.

Really good discussion on ethical design.
It made me think about dark patterns I've used in the past as a marketer. I want to be more mindful moving forward. 👍
Have you tried FaceApp? Should you be freaked out about it? Front Burner walks us through the facts, the fictions and all that fun fine print. Note: there is a difference between what company has said in interviews and the app's actual terms and conditions.
Come for the wacky stories of dictators saying they’ve accomplished bizarrely grandiose things, but stay for the really smart discussion of the purpose of these stories.
The fashion industry is built on relationships. But to launch Rent the Runway, Jenn Hyman had to build relationships and trust with companies that might have wanted her idea to fail. Hear how she started those conversations.
so there’s a lot of fear and uncertainty going around w the coronavirus and I think this episode help me assuage my fears of the virility of this disease, esp as it pertains to bay area— some highlights:
- we’re probably not going to die if we get it, kinda like the flu
- symptoms are mostly respiratory
- have an emergency plan if we do end up having to go into quarantine (water, canned food, etc)
- no big cases in the USA so far, so unless you are literally with someone who’s traveled recently to China, you are good
Hear from the actress Dina Shihabi. Dina is most known for her role in acclaimed shows like Amazon Prime Video's Jack Ryan and Hulu's Ramy, but she didn’t start out in acting. In this episode of Al Empire, Dina shares how the discipline she learned as a dancer has paved her way to success.
Podyssey is where podcast creators can reach new listeners, engage with fans, and get meaningful audience feedback on their content.
"Podyssey helps me discover shows that I can reach out to for cross promotion and find podcast listeners who will love our content — two essential elements of growing an independent podcast."
Jenna Spinelle of Democracy Works from Penn State McCourtney Institute for Democracy
"Participants were all super thoughtful and knowledgeable about AI and had clearly listened to the episodes. This was way more meaningful engagement than Twitter or Instagram. It was both validating and gave an indication of storylines and themes that are especially resonant."
Oz Woloshyn of Sleepwalkers from iHeartRadio
"It was great to see that our episode was showing another aspect to the conversation and getting people to think about that. That was quite fulfilling. We definitely think Podyssey is a great app."
Maisha Bahdon of That's What They Said
"It was really nice to have such an engaged audience asking specific questions about the story. Usually we just get generic feedback like 'Nice job! Love what you’re doing!' but it’s fun to be quizzed further, also helped me identify a few gaps that we could’ve addressed in the episode."
Alex Atack of Kerning Cultures
