All Things Audio

#TwitterSpaces #Clubhouse #SocialAudio

This week Madalyn and Suze discuss how the new Subscriptions feature will impact Spaces. There’s also talk about the shady art of pre-recorded content on Clubhouse being used to up-sell full recordings of a Room - or is it genius? Plus, for a minute there we thought captions had returned to Spaces and new ways to promote social audio content on Instagram with an overhaul of ‘link in bio’

This week Suze and Madalyn talk about Elon’s latest impromptu Twitter Space. The Chief Twit spoke to BBC journalist James Clayton live on Spaces but how many people were listening? While the live stats showed millions had tuned in, the stat counter later plummeted from those heights. We also talk about Clubhouse switch Clubs to Houses, Discord introducing a soundboard for Nitro subscribers and Substack.

This week Suze is joined by @audiomentor Michael Sterling. They discuss whether Twitter is working on anything for Spaces behind the scenes considering someone turned the lights out last week while trying to roll-out a feature at scale. Plus, the search bar has returned to the Spaces tab and Clubhouse hosts can look forward to taking their past replays with them as they transition from Clubs to Houses. Suze also chats with podcast expert Jennifer Navarrete about the new podcast management tools being tested on YouTube and why it's taking so long for the platform to implement their podcast plans.

#Clubhouse #RedditTalks #SocialAudio

This week Madalyn and Suze were joined by regular All Things Audio contributor Morgan Evetts to chat through a list of Clubhouse feature leaks discovered by reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi. From the ability to invite mutual friends onto the app to the latest on monetisation, Clubhouse engineers are clearly working hard to introduce a variety of new features. Meanwhile, Reddit seems to be stepping back from its social audio efforts, with Reddit Talks creators speaking out over the lack of communication from the platform. As for Spaces, well this week's show started with some Twitter Spaces tech issues that left Suze talking to herself for a bit. The cause was revealed while All Things Audio was still live - listen to the end to find out more!
