WEBVTT

00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:09.519
Then you have the option as a podcast creator

00:00:09.519 --> 00:00:14.039
to add a transcript to your show. And again,

00:00:14.140 --> 00:00:18.239
those people that do are giving the fans and

00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:20.780
listeners the option to read along at the same

00:00:20.780 --> 00:00:24.500
time as they may be listening as well. You can

00:00:24.500 --> 00:00:27.760
then use the search box to find content within

00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:31.899
the transcript if you want. Welcome to Fanzone,

00:00:32.100 --> 00:00:34.640
your bite -sized guide to getting the most out

00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:37.859
of the TrueFans podcast app. In each episode,

00:00:38.060 --> 00:00:40.759
we'll discuss an aspect of the app and hopefully

00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:44.479
answer any questions you may have about it. Plus,

00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:47.600
when you listen to FanZone in TrueFans, you

00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:50.539
can earn as you listen and use your earnings

00:00:50.539 --> 00:00:54.179
to support your favourite podcasters. I'm Claire

00:00:54.179 --> 00:00:56.759
Waite Brown, independent podcaster and all -round

00:00:56.759 --> 00:00:59.659
podcast enthusiast. And I'm Sam Sethi, the CEO

00:00:59.659 --> 00:01:04.219
and founder of TrueFans. Working along the tabs,

00:01:04.340 --> 00:01:08.299
we continue on the episode screen and after chapters

00:01:08.299 --> 00:01:12.599
comes transcripts. Sam, what will I see when

00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:17.340
I click on transcripts? The word is, of course,

00:01:17.420 --> 00:01:22.170
transcript. Singular, not transcripts. That's

00:01:22.170 --> 00:01:25.650
what you'll see on the screen. Well, you'll see

00:01:25.650 --> 00:01:28.230
one of two things. Hopefully you'll see a full

00:01:28.230 --> 00:01:31.510
transcript and you'll have a search box at the

00:01:31.510 --> 00:01:36.489
top as well. And if the person tag is also added

00:01:36.489 --> 00:01:39.569
to the RSS feed, what you'll get is a nice label

00:01:39.569 --> 00:01:42.950
saying who each speaker is within the transcript

00:01:42.950 --> 00:01:46.549
and even an image of the person as well, possibly.

00:01:46.769 --> 00:01:52.489
So that's the first thing you'll see. find content

00:01:52.489 --> 00:01:55.090
within the transcript if you want or you can

00:01:55.090 --> 00:01:58.129
manually scroll down and you'll see that each

00:01:58.129 --> 00:02:01.129
block of text where there is a speaker change

00:02:01.129 --> 00:02:05.010
actually has a timestamp with it and a copy marker

00:02:05.010 --> 00:02:08.110
as well so if you want to go to a certain piece

00:02:08.110 --> 00:02:10.969
of text in the transcript and then want to copy

00:02:10.969 --> 00:02:13.590
that to share it with some friends on social

00:02:13.590 --> 00:02:16.490
media or in an email and a link back to that

00:02:16.490 --> 00:02:19.370
exact point then you can do that The alternative

00:02:19.370 --> 00:02:22.370
is sometimes, and I'd say actually more often

00:02:22.370 --> 00:02:24.870
than not, you won't find a transcript, sadly,

00:02:25.090 --> 00:02:28.729
but you can now buy a transcript using TrueFans.

00:02:28.789 --> 00:02:31.810
So you'll see a button that says buy transcript,

00:02:31.930 --> 00:02:34.909
and that will allow you to pay from your wallet

00:02:34.909 --> 00:02:38.509
a small amount of micropayments, either in fiat

00:02:38.509 --> 00:02:41.169
or sats, and that allows you then to buy that

00:02:41.169 --> 00:02:43.310
transcript. We will then deliver that to that

00:02:43.310 --> 00:02:46.030
page for you, and you can then start to read

00:02:46.030 --> 00:02:48.180
the transcript as normal. So yes. You'll either

00:02:48.180 --> 00:02:51.280
find a transcript, hopefully, or if there isn't

00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:53.500
a transcript in place, you can buy a transcript.

00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.580
Okay, I like the copy option. That's really cool

00:02:57.580 --> 00:03:01.319
for sharing and just copying some clips for yourself.

00:03:01.620 --> 00:03:06.759
So just for a bit of background, Sam, why will

00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:09.479
there be transcripts for some shows and why won't

00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:12.240
there be transcripts for some shows? Again, two

00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:16.479
reasons. So some hosts do not support the transcript

00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:19.800
tag from podcasting 2 .0, which is a shame and

00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:23.419
we hope more of them do. But those podcast hosts

00:03:23.419 --> 00:03:26.020
that do like Captivate, Buzzsprout, Blubrry

00:03:26.020 --> 00:03:29.180
and many others, then you have the option as

00:03:29.180 --> 00:03:33.219
a podcast creator to add a transcript to your

00:03:33.219 --> 00:03:37.860
show. And again, those people that do are giving

00:03:37.860 --> 00:03:41.240
the fans and listeners the option to read along

00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:43.759
at the same time that they may be listening as

00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.919
well. So yes, more people to put transcripts

00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.439
out there, please. Yeah, completely agree. If

00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:52.180
your host allows you to do it, I have experience

00:03:52.180 --> 00:03:55.219
and it's very easy to do. So you've got no excuses.

00:03:56.419 --> 00:04:00.280
None at all. Thanks so much for listening. There

00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:02.680
are lots more episodes of Fanzone for you to

00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:05.240
get stuck into and that show you how to make

00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.659
the most of the fab features that this forward

00:04:07.659 --> 00:04:11.039
-looking podcast app has to offer podcast listeners

00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.340
and creators alike. We'd love to hear from you.

00:04:14.379 --> 00:04:17.259
You can send us a comment on TrueFans, more

00:04:17.259 --> 00:04:19.720
