I don't get podcasts. Like, I've tried, several times over the years, but I'd really rather read something in five minutes than hear it dragged out for an hour.

So "where" I get my podcasts is already question-begging. I was pointed to one last week where the intro was all about things "everyone" experiences ... getting the kids to school, what fast-food place to go to, arguing with the spouse about decor, usw. None of these applies to me, so I saw no reason to listen to the meat of the thing.

Don't assume your audience is like you. Sure, some people may get warm fuzzies that others have experienced the hell of deciding to pop out a kid, but distilling the human experience to having kids and all that comes with that is going to turn off a lot of people. We know it's hell. That's why some of us noped the fuck out.
