🎧 Quick lunchtime project, Podcast Duration https://podcast-duration.netlify.app

Pop an RSS feed in, see how long a podcast is across all episodes.

For example, @hemisphericviews would take you 70 hours, 5 minutes and 3 seconds to listen to every episode.

@connected? The best part of 673 hours 😱

@robb fun idea, but can you tell why it can’t read my feed? http://www.theshortgame.net/feed/podcast/

@raygan I'm not able to load that feed at all so I think it's timing out. The website loads (shortgame.fm) but shortgame.net isn’t loading here at all.

@robb that’s pretty weird! Shortgame.fm is just a links page, the show feed itself is hosted from shortgame.net and it’s definitely up and working in podcast apps. The site loads for me.

@raygan Yep, it's loading now (might have been my work internet). I will have a look into it and get back to you (feeds are hard, not everyone's is the same format).

@robb thanks and nbd, just thought you might want bud reports

@raygan Got it working - the issue was one of your episodes (https://www.theshortgame.net/203-my-friend-pedro/) doesn't have an `itunes:duration` attribute in the feed item so it was erroring. I've fixed it so it skips any episode without a duration so now 🪄

@robb interesting, no idea why that would be!

@raygan that is odd considering all your other episodes do as far as I can tell.

@robb Wordpress is like that sometimes 🤷‍♀️

@robb i don’t need to look at this to know it’d take 400,000 hours to listen to bonanza

@matt so much hot member content

@robb @ry 389,000 of the 400,000 hours were about the galaxy note

@robb @ry you just don't get this sort of specific content on threads

@matt @ry so when you doing another episode matt

@matt juggle balls

@jarrod @help looks like there’s more trouble in linking up mastodon accounts. (Replied using official iOS app, btw)

@robb

@joesteel that’s a lot of movies

@robb there’s a larger percentage of that number that’s just rambling about nothing though

@joesteel which is longer - the runtime of all the movies you’ve reviewed, or the episodes

@robb you’re the web app boy, you tell me

@joesteel oh I will

@robb

@robb @hemisphericviews @connected

@joesteel @robb that percentage is 100 percent

@joesteel @robb @dan Those are rookie numbers.

@bittner 🔥

@joesteel @dan One of my favourite wastes of time 💜
