New Poll: What is a good length for a weekly podcast?

Reading Time

I told you I’d have another poll soon enough.  Since this poll is in connection with the poll we will be running tomorrow on the website for The Skiffy and Fanty Show, your answers will actually be both informative and helpful.  And all you have to do is click your mouse a couple of times (or type a short comment).

The poll question is:  what is a good length for a weekly podcast?

You can find the poll on the left sidebar.  There are five options:  20 min., 30 min., 45 min., 1 hr., and other.  If you select other, we’d appreciate it if you’d leave a comment somewhere letting us know the length you’d suggest.

So vote away!

  1. I think 20 minutes for a weekly show is just about perfect. I don't have large chunks of free time to devote to my podcasts. If it were monthly, an hour would be a good length. Biweekly, and I think about 30 mins.

  2. Thanks for your opinion :). We've been working on keeping them around 30 for now. Our upcoming show is right at about 28 minutes, I think (that's a guess, since I haven't edited the music and stuff into it yet, but it's definitely not 30 minutes).

    Anywho.

Book Review: Start Finishing by Charlie Gilkey (2022)

Sometime near the end of the Spring semester, I decided it was time to take another crack and reorganizing my life. I’ve gone through years of on again / off again burnout, some of it my own fault (I’m disorganized and try to do too much) and some of it a consequence of things about which I have no control (my former university essentially bankrupted itself, forcing me to find a new job in my field, and I’ve since moved twice — the short version). All that burnout and overfilled plate-ism has made it harder to keep up with grading and find the energy to complete tasks on time. So it seemed only logical to use my university library privileges to borrow a variety of recommend productivity and project management books to see what advice, systems, etc. are out there.

A Reading List of Dystopian Fiction and Relevant Texts (Apropos of Nothing in Particular)

Why would someone make a list of important and interesting works of dystopian fiction? Or a suggested reading list of works that are relevant to those dystopian works? There is absolutely no reason other than raw interest. There’s nothing going on to compel this. There is nothing in particular one making such a list would hope you’d learn. The lists below are not an exhaustive list. There are bound to be texts I have forgotten or texts you think folks should read that are not listed. Feel free to make your own list and tell me about it OR leave a comment. I’ll add things I’ve missed! Anywhoodles. Here goes:

Duke’s Best EDM Tracks of 2024

And so it came to pass that I finished up my annual Best of EDM [Insert Year Here] lists. I used to do these on Spotify before switching to Tidal, and I continued doing them on Tidal because I listen to an absurd amount of EDM and like keeping track of the tunes I love the most. Below, you will find a Tidal playlist that should be public. You can listen to the first 50 tracks right here, but the full playlist is available on Tidal proper (which has a free version just like Spotify does). For whatever reason, the embedded playlist breaks the page, and so I’ve opted to link to it here and at the bottom of this post. Embeds are weird. Or you can pull songs into your preferred listening app. It’s up to you. Some caveats before we begin:
