Exciting News - Transcripts!
🕑 Added 2023-06-09 18:52:08 +0000 UTCHello, beloved patrons! I have an exciting announcement to share with you all.
For a very long time I've gotten requests to do episode transcripts; unfortunately, because of the way I organize my notes for recording, it's not that easy to do them off the bat. However, thanks to your generous funding, we've finally been able to put aside some money and time for putting them together.
Obviously, with almost 500 (!) episodes, it's going to take a while, and there are a few caveats to keep in mind:
-Some of the old episode posts have been lost in host migration over the years, and restoring them will be tricky, particularly because...
-...I used to keep notes (which are still the basis of the transcripts, just cleaned up) on a school-related account, which I lost access to unexpectedly and was never able to get back thanks to some complicated reasons. So some of the notes are now lost to the ether; we're looking into machine transcription for those specific episodes
That said, the project is ongoing, starting with the most recent episodes. And it's all thanks to your generosity! So, once again: thank you all for your support, now and over the years. I don't think it can be said enough!
