I like the audio, but you should see if you can disable substack's AI audio button. In my android app there's a second play button at the top that I clicked after pausing, and instead of resuming your audio it switched to an AI voiceover.
I got the screenshot you sent and I'm taking a look now. On my app, when I click that second button you pointed out it just plays the recorded voiceover I did. I'll have to descend into the messy Substack settings and see what I can dig up.
The overwhelming amount of content is hard for anyone to deal with! It's one reason why I dialed back to publishing every other week.
I have so many things written other than these three that I've published since re-launch, so on the off weeks I feel a bit like I want to share them immediately BUT it's been kind of good to just take things slowly. And hopefully it helps as a reader to just have a little less to go through.
I really appreciate the thoughtfulness and care you put into your content. It’s always a pleasure to see what you share! Your openness to feedback and genuine engagement make it even more meaningful. Thank you for creating such a welcoming space—I look forward to more!
I like the audio! I totally would have inquired about the pan but I just bought one. I suppose a second couldn't hurt...
I actually ended up giving it to Goodwill during my move last year. Some other poor soul will have to deal with the screams…

1. I really enjoyed the audio voiceover! I listened to this while I was having lunch. Thank you for doing this Rick :)
2. It seems like there's an overwhelming amount of content out there now, making it harder for people to see and connect with what’s being shared.
3. Yes, absolutely ;)
