Martin Feld believes in RSS, the protocol for getting podcasts out there, so much that he used the letters RSS to name his Really Specific Stories podcast.

Why? Because RSS is open. No one controls it. Anyone can put out a podcast on RSS.

In our short conversation, Martin and I talk about tech podcasting, touching on his research into how it fits into the media landscape, and how fandom and persona influence how people show up on podcasts.

Above all, we discuss why it’s so important that podcasting remain open.

This is the last conversation in my deep dive into tech podcasting. Now back to my regular essays!
