·50 min·5 clips
Joan reveals he has zero episodes recorded for his summer podcast edition, forcing him to scramble before vacation.
The episode opens with host Joan explaining his personal situation: his wife is on vacation, leaving him with childcare duties during local festivals, which disrupted his recording schedule. He introduces the summer edition of his podcast, which will be shorter and focused on answering audience questions to clear a backlog. Joan promotes several courses available on Bluda.com, including ones on Zoom, ChatGPT integration, ChatBase for custom chatbots, and AI-generated tests. He and co-host Valentí discuss the ethical use of AI in crowdfunding, warning against creating deceptive product renders. They touch on the upcoming Netflix adaptation of One Piece and its potential pitfalls. The news segment covers a 20% drop in private investment, suggesting this could boost reward-based crowdfunding. They highlight Fellow Funders' newly redesigned platform and its growth. A critical analysis follows of a 13bits article listing the 'best' crowdfunding platforms, which they find poorly researched and misleading. The core topic addresses the intersection of vacations and crowdfunding. Joan shares an anecdote about a panicked streamer wanting to launch a campaign immediately before August. They advise against launching campaigns in August or December when audiences are disengaged, emphasizing the importance of rest for mental health. Practical tips include setting strict time blocks for essential work, using out-of-office messages, and avoiding phone calls to truly disconnect. They conclude by encouraging listeners to take advantage of slower periods to recharge for a productive September.
