Madge checks in with a chaotic field recording from the gym, captured experimentally on an iPhone 17 Pro using spatial audio. No promises about whether that survives the MP3 conversion, but the spirit certainly does.
In this update:
• The resurrection of Insane Films, Madge’s uncensored video feed where anything goes.
• How to subscribe to the feed directly: feeds.feedburner.com/insanefilms.xml
• The purpose of the Substack at madge.substack.com, including paywalled personal posts and archive material.
• A new AI “robot” built with OpenClaw that helps transcribe, draft, and publish posts automatically.
• A major archival project scanning a massive media drive to recover lost Yeast Radio episodes that have been offline for decades. Recovered shows are being released gradually.
Madge also explains the confusing ecosystem of platforms:
Yeast Radio stays alive for audio.
Insane Films handles uncensored video.
Substack is the semi-private clubhouse.
Plus: gas, gym ambience, self-sabotage while reading URLs aloud, and a reminder that attention is still the most important nutrient for aging podcasters.
If you’re an old listener who still hates Madge, that’s fine. Just keep listening.
