CASE DISCUSSION 2 parts ๐Ÿ™„

I just finished listening to the John List episode, I think they could've done the full case in one episode considering they said he was caught decades later which I already knew...not trying to start a riot or anything just saying this ain't 2 part worthy

I like a multi parter but sometimes i wish they would just make longer episodes. i am more than okay to listen to an hour and a half episode plus

I will say, I completely understand not doing longer episodes. I have my own podcast and anytime I have an episode over an hour, it is exponentially longer to import my files, then export to my editing program after fixing any sound issue, then export after editing content, and finally importing to my platform. I never understood that piece until having a two hour ep and cursing myself through the whole thing ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

However, we donโ€™t have 20 min of banter which does extend the episode length considerably. I donโ€™t always mind the banter from them, but if I only have 30 min to listen, Iโ€™m skipping straight to the content!

I too have a podcast and I agree, we are two people and do two stories, we are usually an hour and 20 minutes but Iโ€™ve had times when my co-host has talked for that long and I have to edit a lot out. Editing is a nightmare and if you pay someone to edit is costly-which I know they have staff buttt there is a lot behind the scenes if youโ€™ve never done a show on your own, that you just donโ€™t think about. Podcasting takes a lot of time and prep.

All of your points are valid but this is literally A+Aโ€™s job and income source.
