00:00:01.879 --> 00:00:07.480
Looking at our world from a theological
perspective. This is the Theology Central podcast
2
00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:15.720
making Theology Central. Good afternoon everyone. It is Wednesday, June the nineteenth,
3
00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:20.600
twenty twenty four. It is currently
twelve fifty nine pm Central Time,
4
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:26.239
and I am coming to you live
from the Theology Central studio located right here
5
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:32.520
in Abilene, Texas. It's test
time, now, I know. I
6
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:34.159
know. No no, no,
no no no no no no no no,
7
00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:37.560
don't don't, don't close the app, don't don't stop it, don't.
8
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:41.079
I know when you hear it's test
time. You know that you typically
9
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.880
think that I'm going to tell you
it's time to grab a notebook, a
10
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:48.159
pencil, and a Bible. We're
going to have a Bible pop quiz or
11
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:51.079
I'm going to give you all kinds
of a Simus And no no, no,
12
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:53.280
no, no, no no no
no, no, no no no.
13
00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:57.520
This is test time for me.
All right, it's test time for
14
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:00.799
me. But I do need your
assis. Okay. As many of you
15
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:07.959
know, we try to get our
content on every available platform and app that
16
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:12.439
we can on the face of the
earth. I try everything in my power
17
00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:15.680
to say, okay, let's get
our content here. Let's get a content
18
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:21.079
here. Let's get a content here. Well, and doing that it can
19
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:23.920
become one. It's very tedious and
a lot of work, far more work
20
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.840
than you understand, than you would
understand. And you're gonna hear in the
21
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:30.920
background lawnmowers because the yard guy has
just arrived. See good thing, I
22
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.159
wasn't doing a normal broadcast. Okay, but that you'll just hear all the
23
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.760
noise in the background. Just ignore
that. Okay, it'll get loud at
24
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:42.159
different times, but that's okay.
What we're testing here is we're testing our
25
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:47.280
RSS feed. Now that doesn't mean
anything to you, all right, but
26
00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:52.560
our RSS feed is the way all
the different platforms and all the different apps
27
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:57.840
find our content and pull in the
latest episode. Well, if you look
28
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:02.159
at your podcasting app, you can
choose whichever one you would like. You
29
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:10.280
will notice that we have two different
podcasts coming from two different RSS feeds,
30
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:15.639
all right. Our main podcast hosting
site comes to us from spreaker, right,
31
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:20.080
that's the one we use that gets
sent to all the other apps.
32
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:25.159
The second one comes from the sermon
audio platform. Those are two distinct ones.
33
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:29.199
If you take your favorite podcast app, if you would like to look,
34
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:31.960
you can choose whichever podcast app you
would like. All Right, I'm
35
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:36.919
just gonna do you pocket Casts because
it's the first one that I found.
36
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:44.039
All right, So if I go
to discover type in Theology Central, you
37
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:47.360
can go to any of your favorite
podcast app do this type in Theology Central.
38
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:53.120
You will see, well, you're
going to see a number of them,
39
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:57.800
unfortunately, okay, because there's some
there's some weird there's been some weird
40
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.560
things going on with our RSS feed. That's why we're doing test. But
41
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:05.439
you'll see one it says Theology Central, a green background, a white circle
42
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:07.520
in the middle of that a Bible
with a cross on it, and then
43
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:13.960
underneath it it says Theology Central.
All right. If you click on that,
44
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:19.919
you'll notice that the last episode was
Prophetic Reset Monday. It's thirty eight
45
00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:23.400
minutes long. You should be able
to find that. That's relatively easy to
46
00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:25.960
find, right, you should be
able to find that one with no problem.
47
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:30.680
Okay. Now, if you also
look, you'll see one that has
48
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:37.319
a black background with a microphone with
words and kind of a green color,
49
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:43.199
Theology Central, and then right underneath
that you'll see the sermon Audio branding.
50
00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:46.520
You'll see the sermon Audio branding,
and I'm sorry that's so loud. It's
51
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:50.560
irritating me, all right, But
you'll see that now, if you'll click
52
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:53.759
on that, you'll see that that
one currently says Prophetic Reset. That's the
53
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.400
one that comes from Sermon Audio.
Now there's another one that has a green
54
00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:03.759
background, white circle Bible has the
Sermon Audio branding as well, and that
55
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:09.560
one is well, that one's broken, all right, because that one has
56
00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:15.560
Sermon on the Mount introduction from May
the twenty third. That one's just broken.
57
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:17.480
I don't know why it's there.
I don't know why it can be
58
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:21.319
found. I wish it would go
away because some people will subscribe to that
59
00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:24.839
and they're like, well, this
one never updates. Why am I listening
60
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:27.800
to this? Hopefully they find all
of our others. I wish that could
61
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:30.959
be deleted. I don't know where
it's coming from, but it's got the
62
00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:33.279
Sermon Audio branding, but I don't
know why it's there. But so the
63
00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:36.680
two you want to find is the
one with the green background, white circle
64
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:42.120
Bible in the middle says Theology Central. There's no branding on it, all
65
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:46.680
right, it's just our artwork.
The other one is has the Sermon Audio
66
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:51.360
branding applied to it telling you that
that feed comes from sermon Audio. Those
67
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:57.279
are our two RSS feeds. Now, what I need you to do today
68
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:00.959
is I need you to find both
of those and which what app you use,
69
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:06.079
Whichever app you use, whether it's
Pocket Cast, Apple Podcasts, Pandora,
70
00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:13.279
whichever one you use, and when
this broadcast is over, what I
71
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:18.399
want you to do is monitor both
of them and see which one updates first
72
00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:23.839
or how close they update at the
same time. Now, what we have
73
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:31.240
been discovering is that the sermon Audio
one is massively delayed, at least massively
74
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:38.240
delayed on Apple podcast What I've been
noticing is under Apple Podcasts, and I
75
00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:43.600
may have to contact them. The
Sermon Audio one in some cases is delayed.
76
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:48.120
Are you ready for this twenty four
to forty eight hours? And what's
77
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:56.920
even more frustrating is sometimes I have
to go in manually and tell Apple refresh
78
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:00.360
my feed. Refresh the feed,
go search, go search, search that
79
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:05.079
RSS feed from Sermon Audio and look
for new content. Well, that's ridiculous.
80
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:09.319
It's twenty twenty four. I shouldn't
have to log into websites and go
81
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:13.720
tell them to look for my content. They're supposed to be searching for it
82
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:18.040
without me doing anything. So I
don't know if it's because they don't necessarily
83
00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:25.240
perceive sermon Audio as a podcasting hosting
site. I don't know what it is.
84
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:30.639
I don't know why they're they're so
delayed, but the other sites do.
85
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.639
Really, what you're gonna notice that
if you have notifications on on the
86
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:39.199
other podcasting apps, what you're going
to notice is that the one from spreaker
87
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:46.680
will show up within probably one to
five minutes from the moment I'm done like
88
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:50.879
it. It shows up so fast, it is awesome. The one from
89
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:55.839
sermon Audio, well, we'll see, we're gonna we're gonna do a test.
90
00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:59.120
So I gotta figure out why.
From what I'm being told, sermon
91
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:04.000
Adio doesn't push out the RSS feed. It's just there and the other sites
92
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:06.959
have to search for it. Well, if the other sites aren't searching for
93
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:11.120
it, how can I get the
other sites to search for it in a
94
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:14.879
timely manner so that it pulls it
in just as fast as it does from
95
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:17.120
our podcast hosting site Spreaker. Now
you may say, well, it doesn't
96
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:21.480
matter, it doesn't who cares?
Well, It matters because when people go
97
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:26.959
on their favorite podcastings app, whichever
one it is, and they're searching for
98
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:29.959
things and like, well, what's
this Theology Central? Let me subscribe to
99
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:35.560
that. If they subscribe to one
that's either massively delayed, dead, not
100
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:41.319
working, then they just remove it
from their library and they may not do
101
00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:45.800
any more searching. You want them
to find your content and find the most
102
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:51.560
recent episode that is available to them. That's what you desperately want some of
103
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:56.360
the apps. And like, on
one end, you know how much work
104
00:07:56.360 --> 00:08:00.160
it will take me to contact each
and every single app and go, hey,
105
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.240
first of all if they even get
back to me, but I maybe
106
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:07.240
have to send three emails to get
someone to finally respond. That's do you
107
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:09.680
understand how frustrating that is when you
get you know, you're not like,
108
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:13.759
I'm getting paid for this. So
you want it to work quickly. You
109
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.279
want it to work efficiently. You
want it to work easily. You want
110
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:20.560
people to be able to be on
any app no matter where they look.
111
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:24.680
They're and they're looking for anything,
they're searching for whatever something maybe they're searching
112
00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:28.439
for theology or just searching for something, and they maybe they're searching for Matthew
113
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:31.440
twenty four. I want them to
find all the messages I did on Matthew
114
00:08:31.440 --> 00:08:35.039
twenty four if they if they saw
eighty three, I want them to find.
115
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:41.799
I want them to find everything quickly, easily, and it's updated.
116
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:45.360
That's what I want. Well,
the only way I can determine that is
117
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:50.679
to try to figure out how it's
working. My perception is the RSS feed
118
00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:58.080
from Sermonadio is massively delayed. That's
my perception. But I could be maybe
119
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:03.080
I'm seeing things. Maybe I'm just
not noticing it. Maybe it's just on
120
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:07.440
my end. So if you'll help
me look, so find. So go
121
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:09.879
do a search find. I don't
care which pot you say. I'd never
122
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:11.600
used a podcast app. Pick one
all right. If you have an Apple
123
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:16.279
device, it's already on your device. Just go to the Apple podcasting app.
124
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.879
Take your five seconds. Already there
if you if you use Spotify for
125
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.919
music, all right, the podcast
already there. If you use Pandora for
126
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:26.600
music, podcast already there. If
you use Amazon Music for music, it's
127
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:31.120
the podcast are already there. So
in many cases it's it's already built in.
128
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:35.240
It's easy for you. You don't
have to do anything extra if you
129
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:37.480
don't. If you don't use.
If you don't have any of that,
130
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:41.120
then just grab any podcasting app.
It can be any one of them.
131
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:45.759
Do a search for Theology Central.
Find both of those. Again, one
132
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.679
the green background, there's no branding
on it, it's just a green background,
133
00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:52.960
white circle, bible in the middle
says Theology Central. There you go.
134
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:58.000
The other one has a black background, there's a microphone, it says
135
00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:03.080
Theology Central and green lettering. Then
it has the sermon audio branding on it.
136
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:07.440
All right, those are the two
you want. All right, those
137
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:15.799
are the two you want, and
hopefully, hopefully it's going to work out
138
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:20.200
perfectly well. And theory I wanted
to work, and theory I wanted to
139
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.639
work. On the other hand,
I wanted to I wanted to not work
140
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:26.000
to prove that I'm not losing my
mind. But I would rather it work
141
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.240
and lose my mind than than not
work. And I have to go spend
142
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:35.080
hours trying to contact people because I
got to figure out what's the deal.
143
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:37.480
I think there's a delay. Well, I know there's a delay because I've
144
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:45.279
had to log into Apple Podcasts multiple
times and say refresh the feed, refresh
145
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:50.559
the feed, refresh the feed,
and it's oh, I'm like, come
146
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:52.480
on, now, can you just
refresh the feed now? I'm not going
147
00:10:52.519 --> 00:10:54.960
to I'm not going to tell it
to refresh the feed today. I'm not
148
00:10:56.039 --> 00:11:01.000
going to do that today. So
we'll see. We will see. So
149
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:03.080
that is what is going on.
That's why I turned on the microphone.
150
00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:07.480
I'm glad i turned on the microphone
for this test because I'm not doing any
151
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:13.399
actual teaching. So the lawnmower in
the background, even though it's irritating,
152
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:16.639
it doesn't really mess anything up.
It's we're just testing an RSS feed.
153
00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:22.799
We're not testing sound quality, we're
not testing soundproofing the studio. We're We're
154
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:26.559
just testing the RSS feed. So
there we go. But whether you don't
155
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:31.000
care about RSS feeds, I care
about them because that's how my stuff gets.
156
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:35.200
That RSS feed is how those podcasting
apps find my content. Well,
157
00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:41.799
if one of the RS feed RSS
feeds work instantaneously, the other one takes
158
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:46.399
twenty four forty eight hours, or
even if it takes an hour or two
159
00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:48.440
hours, you want them to.
You want them to kind of work pretty
160
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:52.480
close together. And the different podcasting
apps also, they're so weird, like
161
00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:58.240
some of them search constantly. That's
why they pull them in some quick some
162
00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:01.080
of them are very delayed. Well, for me, I want the podcast
163
00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:07.679
apps to get the content the fastest. That's what I want. That's why
164
00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:11.799
I use so many different podcasting apps
because I subscribed, well subscribe to so
165
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:16.320
many hourly news podcast or at the
top of the hour they drop a new
166
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:20.240
episode. Well, I want that
episode at the top of the hour.
167
00:12:20.600 --> 00:12:24.440
I don't want it forty five minutes
into the hour. It's already forty five
168
00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:28.840
minutes late, and the next one's
supposed to be dropping in fifteen minutes.
169
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.759
That's useless, right, So I
need them to drop immediately. And when
170
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:37.720
you have when you subscribe to things
like CNN breaking news alerts, well you
171
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.480
don't want the breaking news alert to
show up eight hours after the breaking news.
172
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:46.919
I need it to drop immediately,
right. So I'm really picky about
173
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:50.720
the podcasting apps I use. I
want them to be giving me the content
174
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:56.679
as fast as possible, and I
want my content to be available as fast
175
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:05.320
as possible, because sometimes we talk
about something that's pretty like that's important news
176
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:07.679
that's happening right now, like when
the whole Mark Driscoll being you know,
177
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:13.360
kicked off stage at that conference.
I wanted that out there immediately. And
178
00:13:13.399 --> 00:13:18.519
the reason you do that from a
podcasting perspective is when if you're if you're
179
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:20.879
covering something that's kind of just breaking, or you're kind of ahead of the
180
00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:26.000
story, you want your content out
there first. When people start searching for
181
00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:30.000
it. There's a high probability they
will find your content. But you've got
182
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:33.360
to get the Stuff's got to be
available immediately. If there's a delay,
183
00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:37.879
people are going to find someone else's
content. So those are just like and
184
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:43.120
again, if you post a sermon
for Sunday, do you want people finding
185
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:48.039
the Sunday sermon on Tuesday. No, you want them to find it on
186
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:50.240
Sunday. Okay, that's what you
want them to find. Now, you
187
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:56.639
may not care, but there's a
high whether you care. How you prioritize
188
00:13:56.679 --> 00:14:01.480
what you're listening to. You may
prioriti ties it based off your favorites.
189
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:05.840
You may prioritize it i'll what you
find first. You may prioritize it based
190
00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:11.039
on the date of the content.
And even if you don't, other people
191
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:16.919
do so. All right, so
please find your favorite podcasting app right now.
192
00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:22.039
Look for Theology Central. Theology Central. You're going to find two feeds.
193
00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:26.720
One the artwork will be green background, white circle, bible in the
194
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:31.759
middle says Theology Central. That's pretty
simple. The other one has a black
195
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:35.759
background, has a microphone. In
fact, I have that very microphone right
196
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:39.159
over there in the corner. The
only problem is, for some reason,
197
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:41.279
I can't hook it up to my
Mac and I don't know why. Okay,
198
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:46.039
but it looks really really good.
But it's that exact microphone that's in
199
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:48.840
that picture. It looks awesome.
It looks great. I just look at
200
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.039
it, but I can't use it. Okay, all right, but I
201
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:54.840
digress. It has a black background
with a microphone, and it says Theology
202
00:14:54.879 --> 00:15:01.240
Central, Theology Central green lettering,
and then you'll see the sermon Audio branding
203
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:05.159
underneath it. It says Sermon Audio
Sermon Audio dot com. Faith comes by
204
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:09.200
Hearing, and it has the SA
little the logo for sermon Audio. And
205
00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:13.279
then well, you you want to
follow both of those, and then here
206
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:20.960
in a few minutes, you can
tell me how quickly these broadcasts show up
207
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:24.720
on those apps. If you do
this, If you participate in this test,
208
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:31.159
email me at news if at yahoo
dot com, news if at yahoo
209
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:35.840
dot com and tell me which app
you're using, which one showed up first,
210
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:41.559
which one showed up second, how
long the delay was? And uh?
211
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:45.120
And if you use more than one
podcasting app, which I'm probably the
212
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:48.080
only person who does that. If
you do use more than one, then
213
00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:52.919
tell me what happened on all the
others, all right now? Remember?
214
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:58.679
Oh, also, I always forget
if you use Serious well SiriusXM, if
215
00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:03.519
you use the Serious ex app from
music and all the other things. Hang
216
00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:07.399
on, I'm opening up Serious XM. Right Serious XIM. I'm gonna search
217
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:17.480
hang on theology Central. Yeah,
I don't think it pulls in the sermon
218
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:23.879
audio feed. It doesn't. Yeah, it doesn't. So if you if
219
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:29.320
you're using sermon audio or I'm sorry, if you're using Serious XM. If
220
00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:34.240
you're using Serious XM, you will
only find us that's coming from spreaker.
221
00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:38.759
It does not, It does not
locate, It does not notice, does
222
00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:44.720
not acknowledge the feed coming from sermonadio. It doesn't. But at least we're
223
00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:48.519
there. So but if you if
you so, if you're using Serious XM,
224
00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:55.360
you can tell me how quickly the
feed is updated from uh spreaker.
225
00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:59.279
You won't not be able to participate
in how fast it shows up from sermonadio
226
00:16:59.600 --> 00:17:06.759
because SERIOUSXM does not recognize the sermon
Audio RSS feed. That's that's maddening.
227
00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:08.440
Okay, because and you say,
well, why do you want both?
228
00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:14.160
Because I want both because both are
easily found, right. I want to
229
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:17.960
because it just adds to people finding
the content. The more ways people find
230
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:21.240
the content, the better. All
right, But yeah, if you did
231
00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:26.880
not know, we are available on
Serious XM satellite radio the app. All
232
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:32.400
right, the app. If you're
looking for Theology Central on your satellite radio
233
00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:34.000
in your car, you're not going
to find it. But if you instead
234
00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:38.680
of using the satellite radio use the
Serious XM app, you will find us.
235
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:44.640
Right, Which is really cool that
we're on the SiriusXM app. It
236
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:48.880
really is cool because millions of people
use Serious XM. Some of them seem
237
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:52.319
to have trouble wanting to use the
app and they still want to my satellite
238
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:56.799
radio in the car, I want
to use. The app sounds better than
239
00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:00.920
the satellite radio, which it's much
more compress Okay, so yeah, we
240
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:03.799
won't get into an argument about sound
quality. Yeah we're there. We're we're
241
00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:11.160
there as well, Serious XM,
which we may be it would be interesting
242
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:18.559
to know how many sermon audio broadcasters
are available on SiriusXM. It would be
243
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:25.119
interesting does does does SERIOUSXM app find
anybody like? Anybody coming from the RSS
244
00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:27.599
feed provided by Sermonadio. That would
be interesting to test. I may have
245
00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:30.559
to test that. I'm gonna go
through all I'm gonna do some search.
246
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:36.119
I'm gonna go to the beta dot
sermon audio dot com website, look up
247
00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:40.480
broadcasters and then start searching for them
and seeing how many show up on the
248
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:47.240
SERIOUSXM app. If none of them
show up, then then why does it
249
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:52.519
not recognize the RSS feed from Sermonadio. But yes, we are on Serious
250
00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:56.000
exam. We're everywhere. I'm telling
you, we are literally on every app.
251
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.640
When I when I see that,
people think I'm joking, But I'm
252
00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:03.640
not joking. Well, I have
worked hard to put us on every platform
253
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:08.359
on Earth, right, So all
right, I think we're good. So
254
00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:14.240
you can email me news if it
Yahoo dot com, news if at Yahoo
255
00:19:14.319 --> 00:19:18.759
dot com. Here's what's going to
happen. As soon as this broadcast ends.
256
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:22.599
As soon as it ends, I
hit the big pause button for spreaker.
257
00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:27.079
Then I hit stop it immediately turns
it into a draft, I fill
258
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:33.079
out the title Boom Submit. Then
it goes to every podcasting app on Earth
259
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:40.079
almost instantaneously. Then, so there
was going to be a delay. Then
260
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:44.200
I will go over to sermon when
then once it's uploaded to Spreaker, I
261
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:48.000
go to Spreaker download it. Then
I take that file and upload it to
262
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:52.480
the sermon Audio platform. Then that
then then it's available on that RSS feed.
263
00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:56.680
So there will be somewhat of a
delay. There's going to be a
264
00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:03.160
slight delay of about five to ten
minutes to ensure that it's available. So
265
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:07.440
there's going to be some delay.
So if they show up on the apps,
266
00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:15.440
you know, within fifteen to thirty
thirty five minutes apart, that's okay,
267
00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:18.400
all right. If they show up
between fifteen thirty five minutes apart,
268
00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:22.440
that's okay. My concern is is
when the Sermonardio win doesn't show up for
269
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:26.839
a very long time, we will
see, all right. Remember, check
270
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:32.799
both feeds, the Spreaker feed and
the Sermonadio feed. Tell me which one
271
00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:34.960
updates, Tell me what the difference
is in time, and tell me which
272
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:40.160
platform you were checking. Right.
The more people who participate in this,
273
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:45.240
the more information I have, and
then I can determine what I need to
274
00:20:45.319 --> 00:20:49.640
do. All right, thank you
for listening. Everyone, have a great
275
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:55.720
day. God bless
1
00:00:01.879 --> 00:00:07.480
Looking at our world from a theological
perspective. This is the Theology Central podcast
2
00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:15.720
making Theology Central. Good afternoon everyone. It is Wednesday, June the nineteenth,
3
00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:20.600
twenty twenty four. It is currently
twelve fifty nine pm Central Time,
4
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:26.239
and I am coming to you live
from the Theology Central studio located right here
5
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:32.520
in Abilene, Texas. It's test
time, now, I know. I
6
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:34.159
know. No no, no,
no no no no no no no no,
7
00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:37.560
don't don't, don't close the app, don't don't stop it, don't.
8
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:41.079
I know when you hear it's test
time. You know that you typically
9
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.880
think that I'm going to tell you
it's time to grab a notebook, a
10
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:48.159
pencil, and a Bible. We're
going to have a Bible pop quiz or
11
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:51.079
I'm going to give you all kinds
of a Simus And no no, no,
12
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:53.280
no, no, no no no
no, no, no no no.
13
00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:57.520
This is test time for me.
All right, it's test time for
14
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:00.799
me. But I do need your
assis. Okay. As many of you
15
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:07.959
know, we try to get our
content on every available platform and app that
16
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:12.439
we can on the face of the
earth. I try everything in my power
17
00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:15.680
to say, okay, let's get
our content here. Let's get a content
18
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:21.079
here. Let's get a content here. Well, and doing that it can
19
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:23.920
become one. It's very tedious and
a lot of work, far more work
20
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.840
than you understand, than you would
understand. And you're gonna hear in the
21
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:30.920
background lawnmowers because the yard guy has
just arrived. See good thing, I
22
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.159
wasn't doing a normal broadcast. Okay, but that you'll just hear all the
23
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.760
noise in the background. Just ignore
that. Okay, it'll get loud at
24
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:42.159
different times, but that's okay.
What we're testing here is we're testing our
25
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:47.280
RSS feed. Now that doesn't mean
anything to you, all right, but
26
00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:52.560
our RSS feed is the way all
the different platforms and all the different apps
27
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:57.840
find our content and pull in the
latest episode. Well, if you look
28
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:02.159
at your podcasting app, you can
choose whichever one you would like. You
29
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:10.280
will notice that we have two different
podcasts coming from two different RSS feeds,
30
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:15.639
all right. Our main podcast hosting
site comes to us from spreaker, right,
31
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:20.080
that's the one we use that gets
sent to all the other apps.
32
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:25.159
The second one comes from the sermon
audio platform. Those are two distinct ones.
33
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:29.199
If you take your favorite podcast app, if you would like to look,
34
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:31.960
you can choose whichever podcast app you
would like. All Right, I'm
35
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:36.919
just gonna do you pocket Casts because
it's the first one that I found.
36
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:44.039
All right, So if I go
to discover type in Theology Central, you
37
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:47.360
can go to any of your favorite
podcast app do this type in Theology Central.
38
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:53.120
You will see, well, you're
going to see a number of them,
39
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:57.800
unfortunately, okay, because there's some
there's some weird there's been some weird
40
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.560
things going on with our RSS feed. That's why we're doing test. But
41
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:05.439
you'll see one it says Theology Central, a green background, a white circle
42
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:07.520
in the middle of that a Bible
with a cross on it, and then
43
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:13.960
underneath it it says Theology Central.
All right. If you click on that,
44
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:19.919
you'll notice that the last episode was
Prophetic Reset Monday. It's thirty eight
45
00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:23.400
minutes long. You should be able
to find that. That's relatively easy to
46
00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:25.960
find, right, you should be
able to find that one with no problem.
47
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:30.680
Okay. Now, if you also
look, you'll see one that has
48
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:37.319
a black background with a microphone with
words and kind of a green color,
49
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:43.199
Theology Central, and then right underneath
that you'll see the sermon Audio branding.
50
00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:46.520
You'll see the sermon Audio branding,
and I'm sorry that's so loud. It's
51
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:50.560
irritating me, all right, But
you'll see that now, if you'll click
52
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:53.759
on that, you'll see that that
one currently says Prophetic Reset. That's the
53
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.400
one that comes from Sermon Audio.
Now there's another one that has a green
54
00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:03.759
background, white circle Bible has the
Sermon Audio branding as well, and that
55
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:09.560
one is well, that one's broken, all right, because that one has
56
00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:15.560
Sermon on the Mount introduction from May
the twenty third. That one's just broken.
57
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:17.480
I don't know why it's there.
I don't know why it can be
58
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:21.319
found. I wish it would go
away because some people will subscribe to that
59
00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:24.839
and they're like, well, this
one never updates. Why am I listening
60
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:27.800
to this? Hopefully they find all
of our others. I wish that could
61
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:30.959
be deleted. I don't know where
it's coming from, but it's got the
62
00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:33.279
Sermon Audio branding, but I don't
know why it's there. But so the
63
00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:36.680
two you want to find is the
one with the green background, white circle
64
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:42.120
Bible in the middle says Theology Central. There's no branding on it, all
65
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:46.680
right, it's just our artwork.
The other one is has the Sermon Audio
66
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:51.360
branding applied to it telling you that
that feed comes from sermon Audio. Those
67
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:57.279
are our two RSS feeds. Now, what I need you to do today
68
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:00.959
is I need you to find both
of those and which what app you use,
69
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:06.079
Whichever app you use, whether it's
Pocket Cast, Apple Podcasts, Pandora,
70
00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:13.279
whichever one you use, and when
this broadcast is over, what I
71
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:18.399
want you to do is monitor both
of them and see which one updates first
72
00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:23.839
or how close they update at the
same time. Now, what we have
73
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:31.240
been discovering is that the sermon Audio
one is massively delayed, at least massively
74
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:38.240
delayed on Apple podcast What I've been
noticing is under Apple Podcasts, and I
75
00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:43.600
may have to contact them. The
Sermon Audio one in some cases is delayed.
76
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:48.120
Are you ready for this twenty four
to forty eight hours? And what's
77
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:56.920
even more frustrating is sometimes I have
to go in manually and tell Apple refresh
78
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:00.360
my feed. Refresh the feed,
go search, go search, search that
79
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:05.079
RSS feed from Sermon Audio and look
for new content. Well, that's ridiculous.
80
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:09.319
It's twenty twenty four. I shouldn't
have to log into websites and go
81
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:13.720
tell them to look for my content. They're supposed to be searching for it
82
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:18.040
without me doing anything. So I
don't know if it's because they don't necessarily
83
00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:25.240
perceive sermon Audio as a podcasting hosting
site. I don't know what it is.
84
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:30.639
I don't know why they're they're so
delayed, but the other sites do.
85
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.639
Really, what you're gonna notice that
if you have notifications on on the
86
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:39.199
other podcasting apps, what you're going
to notice is that the one from spreaker
87
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:46.680
will show up within probably one to
five minutes from the moment I'm done like
88
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:50.879
it. It shows up so fast, it is awesome. The one from
89
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:55.839
sermon Audio, well, we'll see, we're gonna we're gonna do a test.
90
00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:59.120
So I gotta figure out why.
From what I'm being told, sermon
91
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:04.000
Adio doesn't push out the RSS feed. It's just there and the other sites
92
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:06.959
have to search for it. Well, if the other sites aren't searching for
93
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:11.120
it, how can I get the
other sites to search for it in a
94
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:14.879
timely manner so that it pulls it
in just as fast as it does from
95
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:17.120
our podcast hosting site Spreaker. Now
you may say, well, it doesn't
96
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:21.480
matter, it doesn't who cares?
Well, It matters because when people go
97
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:26.959
on their favorite podcastings app, whichever
one it is, and they're searching for
98
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:29.959
things and like, well, what's
this Theology Central? Let me subscribe to
99
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:35.560
that. If they subscribe to one
that's either massively delayed, dead, not
100
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:41.319
working, then they just remove it
from their library and they may not do
101
00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:45.800
any more searching. You want them
to find your content and find the most
102
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:51.560
recent episode that is available to them. That's what you desperately want some of
103
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:56.360
the apps. And like, on
one end, you know how much work
104
00:07:56.360 --> 00:08:00.160
it will take me to contact each
and every single app and go, hey,
105
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.240
first of all if they even get
back to me, but I maybe
106
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:07.240
have to send three emails to get
someone to finally respond. That's do you
107
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:09.680
understand how frustrating that is when you
get you know, you're not like,
108
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:13.759
I'm getting paid for this. So
you want it to work quickly. You
109
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.279
want it to work efficiently. You
want it to work easily. You want
110
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:20.560
people to be able to be on
any app no matter where they look.
111
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:24.680
They're and they're looking for anything,
they're searching for whatever something maybe they're searching
112
00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:28.439
for theology or just searching for something, and they maybe they're searching for Matthew
113
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:31.440
twenty four. I want them to
find all the messages I did on Matthew
114
00:08:31.440 --> 00:08:35.039
twenty four if they if they saw
eighty three, I want them to find.
115
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:41.799
I want them to find everything quickly, easily, and it's updated.
116
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:45.360
That's what I want. Well,
the only way I can determine that is
117
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:50.679
to try to figure out how it's
working. My perception is the RSS feed
118
00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:58.080
from Sermonadio is massively delayed. That's
my perception. But I could be maybe
119
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:03.080
I'm seeing things. Maybe I'm just
not noticing it. Maybe it's just on
120
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:07.440
my end. So if you'll help
me look, so find. So go
121
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:09.879
do a search find. I don't
care which pot you say. I'd never
122
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:11.600
used a podcast app. Pick one
all right. If you have an Apple
123
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:16.279
device, it's already on your device. Just go to the Apple podcasting app.
124
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.879
Take your five seconds. Already there
if you if you use Spotify for
125
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.919
music, all right, the podcast
already there. If you use Pandora for
126
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:26.600
music, podcast already there. If
you use Amazon Music for music, it's
127
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:31.120
the podcast are already there. So
in many cases it's it's already built in.
128
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:35.240
It's easy for you. You don't
have to do anything extra if you
129
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:37.480
don't. If you don't use.
If you don't have any of that,
130
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:41.120
then just grab any podcasting app.
It can be any one of them.
131
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:45.759
Do a search for Theology Central.
Find both of those. Again, one
132
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.679
the green background, there's no branding
on it, it's just a green background,
133
00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:52.960
white circle, bible in the middle
says Theology Central. There you go.
134
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:58.000
The other one has a black background, there's a microphone, it says
135
00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:03.080
Theology Central and green lettering. Then
it has the sermon audio branding on it.
136
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:07.440
All right, those are the two
you want. All right, those
137
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:15.799
are the two you want, and
hopefully, hopefully it's going to work out
138
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:20.200
perfectly well. And theory I wanted
to work, and theory I wanted to
139
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.639
work. On the other hand,
I wanted to I wanted to not work
140
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:26.000
to prove that I'm not losing my
mind. But I would rather it work
141
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.240
and lose my mind than than not
work. And I have to go spend
142
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:35.080
hours trying to contact people because I
got to figure out what's the deal.
143
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:37.480
I think there's a delay. Well, I know there's a delay because I've
144
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:45.279
had to log into Apple Podcasts multiple
times and say refresh the feed, refresh
145
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:50.559
the feed, refresh the feed,
and it's oh, I'm like, come
146
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:52.480
on, now, can you just
refresh the feed now? I'm not going
147
00:10:52.519 --> 00:10:54.960
to I'm not going to tell it
to refresh the feed today. I'm not
148
00:10:56.039 --> 00:11:01.000
going to do that today. So
we'll see. We will see. So
149
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:03.080
that is what is going on.
That's why I turned on the microphone.
150
00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:07.480
I'm glad i turned on the microphone
for this test because I'm not doing any
151
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:13.399
actual teaching. So the lawnmower in
the background, even though it's irritating,
152
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:16.639
it doesn't really mess anything up.
It's we're just testing an RSS feed.
153
00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:22.799
We're not testing sound quality, we're
not testing soundproofing the studio. We're We're
154
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:26.559
just testing the RSS feed. So
there we go. But whether you don't
155
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:31.000
care about RSS feeds, I care
about them because that's how my stuff gets.
156
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:35.200
That RSS feed is how those podcasting
apps find my content. Well,
157
00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:41.799
if one of the RS feed RSS
feeds work instantaneously, the other one takes
158
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:46.399
twenty four forty eight hours, or
even if it takes an hour or two
159
00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:48.440
hours, you want them to.
You want them to kind of work pretty
160
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:52.480
close together. And the different podcasting
apps also, they're so weird, like
161
00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:58.240
some of them search constantly. That's
why they pull them in some quick some
162
00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:01.080
of them are very delayed. Well, for me, I want the podcast
163
00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:07.679
apps to get the content the fastest. That's what I want. That's why
164
00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:11.799
I use so many different podcasting apps
because I subscribed, well subscribe to so
165
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:16.320
many hourly news podcast or at the
top of the hour they drop a new
166
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:20.240
episode. Well, I want that
episode at the top of the hour.
167
00:12:20.600 --> 00:12:24.440
I don't want it forty five minutes
into the hour. It's already forty five
168
00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:28.840
minutes late, and the next one's
supposed to be dropping in fifteen minutes.
169
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.759
That's useless, right, So I
need them to drop immediately. And when
170
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:37.720
you have when you subscribe to things
like CNN breaking news alerts, well you
171
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.480
don't want the breaking news alert to
show up eight hours after the breaking news.
172
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:46.919
I need it to drop immediately,
right. So I'm really picky about
173
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:50.720
the podcasting apps I use. I
want them to be giving me the content
174
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:56.679
as fast as possible, and I
want my content to be available as fast
175
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:05.320
as possible, because sometimes we talk
about something that's pretty like that's important news
176
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:07.679
that's happening right now, like when
the whole Mark Driscoll being you know,
177
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:13.360
kicked off stage at that conference.
I wanted that out there immediately. And
178
00:13:13.399 --> 00:13:18.519
the reason you do that from a
podcasting perspective is when if you're if you're
179
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:20.879
covering something that's kind of just breaking, or you're kind of ahead of the
180
00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:26.000
story, you want your content out
there first. When people start searching for
181
00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:30.000
it. There's a high probability they
will find your content. But you've got
182
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:33.360
to get the Stuff's got to be
available immediately. If there's a delay,
183
00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:37.879
people are going to find someone else's
content. So those are just like and
184
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:43.120
again, if you post a sermon
for Sunday, do you want people finding
185
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:48.039
the Sunday sermon on Tuesday. No, you want them to find it on
186
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:50.240
Sunday. Okay, that's what you
want them to find. Now, you
187
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:56.639
may not care, but there's a
high whether you care. How you prioritize
188
00:13:56.679 --> 00:14:01.480
what you're listening to. You may
prioriti ties it based off your favorites.
189
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:05.840
You may prioritize it i'll what you
find first. You may prioritize it based
190
00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:11.039
on the date of the content.
And even if you don't, other people
191
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:16.919
do so. All right, so
please find your favorite podcasting app right now.
192
00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:22.039
Look for Theology Central. Theology Central. You're going to find two feeds.
193
00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:26.720
One the artwork will be green background, white circle, bible in the
194
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:31.759
middle says Theology Central. That's pretty
simple. The other one has a black
195
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:35.759
background, has a microphone. In
fact, I have that very microphone right
196
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:39.159
over there in the corner. The
only problem is, for some reason,
197
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:41.279
I can't hook it up to my
Mac and I don't know why. Okay,
198
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:46.039
but it looks really really good.
But it's that exact microphone that's in
199
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:48.840
that picture. It looks awesome.
It looks great. I just look at
200
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.039
it, but I can't use it. Okay, all right, but I
201
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:54.840
digress. It has a black background
with a microphone, and it says Theology
202
00:14:54.879 --> 00:15:01.240
Central, Theology Central green lettering,
and then you'll see the sermon Audio branding
203
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:05.159
underneath it. It says Sermon Audio
Sermon Audio dot com. Faith comes by
204
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:09.200
Hearing, and it has the SA
little the logo for sermon Audio. And
205
00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:13.279
then well, you you want to
follow both of those, and then here
206
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:20.960
in a few minutes, you can
tell me how quickly these broadcasts show up
207
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:24.720
on those apps. If you do
this, If you participate in this test,
208
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:31.159
email me at news if at yahoo
dot com, news if at yahoo
209
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:35.840
dot com and tell me which app
you're using, which one showed up first,
210
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:41.559
which one showed up second, how
long the delay was? And uh?
211
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:45.120
And if you use more than one
podcasting app, which I'm probably the
212
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:48.080
only person who does that. If
you do use more than one, then
213
00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:52.919
tell me what happened on all the
others, all right now? Remember?
214
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:58.679
Oh, also, I always forget
if you use Serious well SiriusXM, if
215
00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:03.519
you use the Serious ex app from
music and all the other things. Hang
216
00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:07.399
on, I'm opening up Serious XM. Right Serious XIM. I'm gonna search
217
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:17.480
hang on theology Central. Yeah,
I don't think it pulls in the sermon
218
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:23.879
audio feed. It doesn't. Yeah, it doesn't. So if you if
219
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:29.320
you're using sermon audio or I'm sorry, if you're using Serious XM. If
220
00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:34.240
you're using Serious XM, you will
only find us that's coming from spreaker.
221
00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:38.759
It does not, It does not
locate, It does not notice, does
222
00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:44.720
not acknowledge the feed coming from sermonadio. It doesn't. But at least we're
223
00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:48.519
there. So but if you if
you so, if you're using Serious XM,
224
00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:55.360
you can tell me how quickly the
feed is updated from uh spreaker.
225
00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:59.279
You won't not be able to participate
in how fast it shows up from sermonadio
226
00:16:59.600 --> 00:17:06.759
because SERIOUSXM does not recognize the sermon
Audio RSS feed. That's that's maddening.
227
00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:08.440
Okay, because and you say,
well, why do you want both?
228
00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:14.160
Because I want both because both are
easily found, right. I want to
229
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:17.960
because it just adds to people finding
the content. The more ways people find
230
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:21.240
the content, the better. All
right, But yeah, if you did
231
00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:26.880
not know, we are available on
Serious XM satellite radio the app. All
232
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:32.400
right, the app. If you're
looking for Theology Central on your satellite radio
233
00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:34.000
in your car, you're not going
to find it. But if you instead
234
00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:38.680
of using the satellite radio use the
Serious XM app, you will find us.
235
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:44.640
Right, Which is really cool that
we're on the SiriusXM app. It
236
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:48.880
really is cool because millions of people
use Serious XM. Some of them seem
237
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:52.319
to have trouble wanting to use the
app and they still want to my satellite
238
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:56.799
radio in the car, I want
to use. The app sounds better than
239
00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:00.920
the satellite radio, which it's much
more compress Okay, so yeah, we
240
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:03.799
won't get into an argument about sound
quality. Yeah we're there. We're we're
241
00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:11.160
there as well, Serious XM,
which we may be it would be interesting
242
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:18.559
to know how many sermon audio broadcasters
are available on SiriusXM. It would be
243
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:25.119
interesting does does does SERIOUSXM app find
anybody like? Anybody coming from the RSS
244
00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:27.599
feed provided by Sermonadio. That would
be interesting to test. I may have
245
00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:30.559
to test that. I'm gonna go
through all I'm gonna do some search.
246
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:36.119
I'm gonna go to the beta dot
sermon audio dot com website, look up
247
00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:40.480
broadcasters and then start searching for them
and seeing how many show up on the
248
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:47.240
SERIOUSXM app. If none of them
show up, then then why does it
249
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:52.519
not recognize the RSS feed from Sermonadio. But yes, we are on Serious
250
00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:56.000
exam. We're everywhere. I'm telling
you, we are literally on every app.
251
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.640
When I when I see that,
people think I'm joking, But I'm
252
00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:03.640
not joking. Well, I have
worked hard to put us on every platform
253
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:08.359
on Earth, right, So all
right, I think we're good. So
254
00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:14.240
you can email me news if it
Yahoo dot com, news if at Yahoo
255
00:19:14.319 --> 00:19:18.759
dot com. Here's what's going to
happen. As soon as this broadcast ends.
256
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:22.599
As soon as it ends, I
hit the big pause button for spreaker.
257
00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:27.079
Then I hit stop it immediately turns
it into a draft, I fill
258
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:33.079
out the title Boom Submit. Then
it goes to every podcasting app on Earth
259
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:40.079
almost instantaneously. Then, so there
was going to be a delay. Then
260
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:44.200
I will go over to sermon when
then once it's uploaded to Spreaker, I
261
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:48.000
go to Spreaker download it. Then
I take that file and upload it to
262
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:52.480
the sermon Audio platform. Then that
then then it's available on that RSS feed.
263
00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:56.680
So there will be somewhat of a
delay. There's going to be a
264
00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:03.160
slight delay of about five to ten
minutes to ensure that it's available. So
265
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:07.440
there's going to be some delay.
So if they show up on the apps,
266
00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:15.440
you know, within fifteen to thirty
thirty five minutes apart, that's okay,
267
00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:18.400
all right. If they show up
between fifteen thirty five minutes apart,
268
00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:22.440
that's okay. My concern is is
when the Sermonardio win doesn't show up for
269
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:26.839
a very long time, we will
see, all right. Remember, check
270
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:32.799
both feeds, the Spreaker feed and
the Sermonadio feed. Tell me which one
271
00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:34.960
updates, Tell me what the difference
is in time, and tell me which
272
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:40.160
platform you were checking. Right.
The more people who participate in this,
273
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:45.240
the more information I have, and
then I can determine what I need to
274
00:20:45.319 --> 00:20:49.640
do. All right, thank you
for listening. Everyone, have a great
275
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:55.720
day. God bless
