Podcasts should be thought of as limited runs, not like never ending radio programs. That's just the reality, regardless of the original intentions.
I think the move to announced seasons is a good middle ground. It tempers expectations and gives creators a break or stopping point.
- ghaff 2y agoThere are definitely podcasts that are of historical interest. I mentioned the big dig one. My former company also did some computer-related podcasts that are sort of evergreen, e.g. related to Soul of a New Machine. There are also ones related to speculation about some current TV show that mostly have a pretty short shelf life. But agree generally. I think if I were to undertake a new podcast, I'd probably use seasons. Gives a good point to decide, nah, I'm done with this topic. Otherwise, the natural path is to just peter out.
