In order to meet recent market demands, I have created a podcast. I am looking for a more meaningful method of ’self-expression’ than just blogging. Please put this podcast on your iPod/zune and go on a meaningful walk with it through the conceptual forest/a meaningful urban environment. You can also listen to it if you ‘go to the gym’ and ‘use the elliptical.’
[Download now] (zshare link)
Let me know what I can do to ‘improve’ my blog/podcast, and make it more meaningful/appeal 2 more people.
Other uses for this podcast:
- burn to CD to listen 2 on a walkman
- burn on CD 2 give 2 parents
- put on minidisc player
- burn on CD 2 give 2 ‘girl who u want 2 like u bc ur so funnie and smart’
- blog abt it
- podcast abt it

I can’t tell if you guys are being serious or not, but here goes: Carles, on the podcast, said he needed to listen to Bon Iver. So this Alexis person here is providing that opportunity. Not spamming.
Also, for what it’s worth, I absolutely loved the podcast. Like, I think I enjoy it even more than the posts here. His voice does sound way different than I imagined it would, but it isn’t bad at all.

Answer:
1. Put it on iTunes or at least share an iTunes friendly xml link. Zshare is for illegal leaked albums not podcasts.
2. Make it exactly the same as your sirius radio show — I’ve been wanting to hear that for a while. Plus, why would you make two shows?
Yeah.

@Albert, ????? doesn’t it make sense to you that carles would make us dl this from the most annoying/porn-y fileshare website? bet he just likes to know that he has enough power over us that we’ll actually go there, disable our adblockplus, dl the link and then scrobble it on itunes. i know i did it :(

Your voice sounds really weird, Carles. Parts of it almost sounded like a really bad standup commedy routine.
But thanks for ‘letting me in’
It’s nice to feel vulnerable with someone sometimes.

@Seva, ehhhhhh, i agree that parts of it may have been “a tad” superfluous but overall it was quite meaningful. you need to listen to it a few times for the messages to really kick in.

Carles, hearing this podcast really solidified my fears about this website for a really long time. I don’t know if other people have said this before, but it’s pretty crazy how Hipster Runoff started out as this total piss taking blog and then slowly morphed into the diary of someone who comes across as super, super depressed. What’s your life like outside of this blog, Carles? Hearing you talk on that podcast just fills me with a bit of sadness- internet addiction is a pretty serious thing…
That being said, I really think the last step for you to take is to reveal your identity. Or anyone else on this blog who knows, PLEASE LINK. I need to know who you are Carles, really. Thank you.

carles, i am suburban teenage entrylvlr whose ename is russian to seem more meaningful. your podcast has expressed feelings that i have been unable to express. perhaps it is the limitations of my lvl (i work on becoming more selfaware). Please continue with the podcasts. the growth we are going through is important. The song at the end brought a tear (single) to my eye. Both because I am knowledgeable to regonise the song and because of the words you spoke.
Dearest wishes,

I did not find any part of the podcast funny or in any way something I would want to listen to again.
