First off: this is not a criticism of the work effort of the podcast team. I just want to state that first before people take this thread the wrong way.
I have noticed, for at least some number of months now, there is a delay between when the latest discussions are posted to YouTube (not the live stream but the whole show) versus when they are posted to Apple’s Podcasts app. Usually the delay is about a day from when it is posted on YouTube until it pops up in my Podcasts app. For example, yesterday’s show is available for viewing on YouTube but not yet on podcast and I don’t expect to see it in my queue until this afternoon.
I understand the YouTube video probably goes up much more quickly because it’s done as a live video. So, this delay may have been the case since the live podcast (video) version of the show began years ago but I don’t recall noticing it until sometime within the last year. Is it just me having a bad memory or is there something in the process with Apple’s podcast-certification that is slowing things down?
I realize this is a really lame “nitpick”. The only reason I’m asking is because I usually listen to the show in the morning on my drive to work and would prefer to download and listen to the podcast version as opposed to streaming the YouTube version. No, the extra day doesn’t kill me. Yes, I somehow manage.
Again this is absolutely not intended as a criticism of the DIS team. I just wanted to note my observation in case it’s an issue on my end or it’s something that maybe the team wasn’t aware of. That’s all.
Many thanks for what the DIS team member are doing,
