Podcasts on A Plane

Is this what the American People thinks we are?

Hello. I am on a plane.

I am bored.

There is a touch-screen in front of me.

One of the menus says Podcasts.

I have heard a lot about podcasts. I think I will try one.

Thats it. That’s all of them.

That’s what a podcast is. Enjoy your flight.

Look, I am sure those are all wonderful shows. But that’s it. Malcom Gladwell and Friends?

a16z is the first thing we’re going to put in front of people?

No Joe Rogan? Call Her Daddy? Bill Simmons? The Women Being Murdered Show? Rachel Maddow? Smartless? Conan? Pod Save America? Daily Comedy News?

Didn’t someone just tell us Julia Louis-Dreyfus is one of the most powerful people in podcasting? Where’s her show? I guess she’s not too powerful above 30,000 feet I’ll tell ya!

Yes yes I get it, someone has a deal with an airline. But Civilians don’t know that. Civilians are going to click on podcasting and get that list, and I’m not sure it’s capturing this wonderful world that goes from Murder Shows to a podcast about Sammy Hagar.

Sometimes I say things and I don’t know what I want from any of you. Enjoy your flight and adios on your fan.
