- ayusaf 15y agoThanks for feedback. I just realised I should have posted this to Ask HN - oops, I'll do that today. I see what you're saying. The content is only spoken word (no music) so perhaps that should be stated explicitly. I haven't been sure about using the word podcast because it is off putting for some people and it doesn't necessarily mean audio (podcasts can be video too). Maybe I should do a quick on the ground survey to see what term I should use - podcast, audio programme, spoken word programmes....

- ayusaf 15y agoBrilliant tip, thanks. I am based in the UK and am using it now. BTW, we have also decided to change the name to Super Owl. Too many people associated a negative tone with the word 'smug' - we were trying to be cheeky but perhaps it was a bit too cheeky! :)
- ayusaf 15y agoWe've gone with this for now: http://www.superowl.me/ http://www.superowl.me/ We may swap out 'spoken word' for podcasts. Thanks for the help.
