the yapping bit
Podcasts are long, aren’t they? And some people like that. But I’ve always thought someone should make a podcast for people who love listening, but struggle to listen to something for 30-45 minutes.
What if there was a podcast that, yes, could be listened to in long-form… but was also a series of mini-podcasts that could be listened to independently. That’s what I’m up to. Stay for one 5-minute segment, or hang for all 5 segments:
The Catch-Up Bit (Updates, Current events)
The Feelings Bit (Getting philosophical, having big feelings)
The Rec Bit (Media recommendations)
The Fandom Bit (My bread and butter)
The Question Bit (Questions and topics directly from all of you!)
However long you’re here, I’ll be yapping, and I’m happy to have you. Welcome to The Yapping Bit.
