I love listening podcasts with transcripts (i.e playing podcast at 1.5x and simultaneously reading the transcript of the same in with the podcast audio in background )
I currently upload your podcasts on youtube (private) and auto generate the transcript.This is the only free way to generate transcript that I know of. But its highly inefficient as it takes 15-20 minutes of effort everytime .
Can you in any way provide the option for transcript of your podcasts on this website or direct me on some method or way to achieve the same ?
We’ll look into it. It looks like YouTube might be the only free option that’ll handle the length of our podcast, but we (Gary and Leo) have access to a few more for our businesses. Stay tuned.
FYI I’ve added an auto-generated transcript using otter.ai. It’s not perfect, but then none are.
Thanks for Otter.ai transcript.
Thats enough for me. I can handle few errors.
If you can add this auto generated transcript for future episodes, I will be grateful.
