About the podcast
Where can I subscribe to the CTAIO Labs Podcast?
Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and direct RSS. Links are at the bottom of every episode page. The RSS feed lives at https://ctaio.dev/en/podcast/feed.xml — drop it into any podcast app that supports custom feeds.
How often do new episodes drop?
Roughly one episode per topic, paced to the underlying lab work. A lab series typically takes four to eight weeks; the podcast episode usually lands the same week as the written writeup. Subscribe in your podcast app of choice to get new episodes automatically.
Is the podcast a literal reading of the lab article?
No. The article is the reference document with tables, screenshots, and citations. The podcast is a conversation about the same material — what surprised us, what we got wrong on the first run, what we would test next. Many episodes include details that did not make the article.
Can I read the transcript instead of listening?
Yes. Each episode page includes the full transcript below the player. The transcript is searchable, so the podcast content is reachable through site search and external search engines.
Is there a paid tier or Patreon?
No paid podcast tier. The podcast and the labs are free. Income comes from the CTAIO newsletter and consulting work — not from podcast sponsorships and not from Patreon. If a future episode is sponsored, that will be disclosed at the top of the show notes.
