How many of you would have a podcast (or something similar) if you could remain anonymous?

@InternetRooky I would. My favorite TV show doesn’t have any podcasts (that I’ve found) and I would love to do a deep dive on it since it only got one season before cancelation. Like was already mentioned, just doing simple voice change stuff like increase/decrease pitch would be too easy to decode I think, so a voice anonymizer would need to be more complex or random. Or just use a computer voice to read out the script? (So impersonal, though.)

@thedeltaflyer Good TV show + only 1 season = Firefly. If I'm right, you're nearly doxxed haha.

For the computer reading out the script, I agree too impersonal. I think preserving the inflection in the voice is critical to connecting with the audience.
If I think about videos on youtube there is some cringe factor or some feeling that its inauthentic the moment you start hearing the computer voice.

@InternetRooky lmfao it’s not Firefly! I’ve never actually seen it (yet)! But if I told you what the show was, I’d probably nearly doxx myself, since it’s so niche. 😜 I’ve thought about doing an anonymous blog for the show, but I like the way some podcasts play one or two few-second clips to emphasize a scene or important point and I’d love to be able to do that as part of the analysis every episode.

@thedeltaflyer That's exactly what a Firefly fan would say! 😂
Def worth watching though.

Yeah, I like your idea. There has to be more fans that would appreciate the commentary. Could be in the format of like a Directors commentary. As with a lot of this stuff it seems like video editing is a big barrier. But you can do a side by side video recording pretty easy with something like OBS.
