is the pod cast spead up?

[Demon440]

it seems to me that the voices sounds a little faster on the pod cast.

[mikehz]

No--it's just the coffee.

I don't have no TWO HOURS to listen to no podcast, can you all speed it up for me?

Maybe three hours to listen to a radio show is more your speed!

[sillyperson]

Play it at 45 rpm instead of your standard 33⅓ LP

Windows Media Player and other media players frequently have a feature to increase playback speed.  You might want to try it.

Some callers could use a 10% speed boost.  Like Dave from Montana. 

[sandm000]

Yeah, if I speed it up with those ways, then Mark and Ian'll sound like chipmunks.
I've got an audio editor, that supposedly keeps the pitch the same. I can try it later today, and if it works, I'll find some way of uploading, but also, let you good people know.

What I'm really looking forward to is better free speech recognition libraries.  (Current software produces output that's good for finding certain keywords, but output text is just an unreadable stream of words with like 20% of the words wrong or missing, and it's especially bad when you have dialog between multiple different, often overlapping voices...)

I could then write a script that not only produces an accurate transcript of the show, but can also hyperlink each line to the podcast time, automatically split the show by segment / caller, etc.  That would result in a completely different listening experience - jump to what interests you the most, skip around, skim through some parts, etc.

This can be combined with tagging, ratings, and wikification to add additional meta-data into the transcript.  You could then just query a script to produce an RSS feed of all segments with a particular callers, topics, or keywords for the past X weeks!

I worked on a project that did that back in 2003, but it was for video.

And I'm guessing you probably got paid for it (in contrast to Libman's offer)

I can't take it anymore.  The only thing I still feel is hate.
