Look into the future as Daniel J. Lewis tells us all about super chapters and they potential they offer podcasters and podcast listeners.
Earn some imaginary extra credit as you learn how super chapters could enable podcasters to incorporate polls, image galleries, and even formatted text blocks directly into their episodes. This innovation aims to enhance listener interaction by allowing them to engage with content, such as swiping through images or clicking on links, all while enjoying the audio.

Updates to TrueFans book icon
I have made a post-production update to the chapter called TrueFans: chapters icon. Ignore what I said about a different screen, BUT, as well as scrolling down you can click on the icon that looks like a bulleted list NOT a little book icon. It also might not be 4th from the left, it might be third.I HAVE updated the photo that corresponds to this chapter, so that is correct . . . for now!.

Chapters in podcasting are transforming the way listeners engage with audio content by allowing for a more interactive and visual experience.
Daniel J. Lewis explains how these chapters function similarly to a slideshow, enhancing the listening experience with images and actionable links that can be updated independently from the audio file.
This innovation not only helps listeners skip to the parts they care about most but also makes the content more accessible and engaging.
As Daniel shares his extensive podcasting background, he emphasizes the importance of focusing on the audience's needs and the potential for chapters to improve content discovery in the future.

Learn about the history of podcasting in it's first and second iterations from James Cridland, and earn yourself some extra imaginary credit!
In this chat James shares insights on the origins of podcasting, tracing its roots back to a blog post written by Adam Curry in 2001 and the subsequent collaboration with Dave Weiner to develop RSS technology for audio distribution. This collaboration was instrumental in democratizing audio content creation, allowing anyone with a microphone and a computer to share their voice with the world.
We hear about the disputed origin of the word 'podcast', and the impact of Apple’s involvement on the medium's popularity and mainstream acceptance.
For nearly a decade after the initial boom, podcasting saw little innovation, leading to a perception that the medium had become stale.
Introduce to the stage, Podcasting 2.0, the initiative designed to bring new features to the forefront of podcasting, enhancing user experience and encouraging deeper interaction with audio content and its creators.

Before we get onto the features – or tags – of Podcasting 2.0 – basically the things that you can do – I want to focus on why you need them and how they can help you, without going into the details of what they are – yet.
Features of Podcasting 2.0 can offer solutions to common problems that podcasts experience around:

In this new course-style podcast we’ll look at the ways that Podcasting 2.0 features – also known as tags – can help podcast creators with discovery, interactivity, and monetization, and help listeners to support and contribute to the success of their favourite shows.
I will be joining you in your learning as I chat with guest experts and ask the questions
• What is the ‘thing’?
• How can it enhance my listening or podcasting experience?
• How do I do it?
The show features ‘learning’ and ‘practice’ episodes, so will guide you through the process of doing the ‘thing’ as a listener and a creator, including tailored guidance for specific apps and hosts, supplemented by imagery and links in the chapters – you’ll learn about those too!
