I stopped podcasting because of the grief I received by bots when uploading it to YouTube. The bots claimed ownership of the music I was using, which was actually royalty-free. It then meant that YouTube our ads on the videos, which was not my intention and the bot-owners made money on my viewers, albeit very low in number but that’s not the point. I continue to make short videos and will soon be making a longer one that I will use YouTube music for to reduce the issues. In the meantime, the videos will have no sound.
This video focuses on the train train services between July and September 2019. |

The second part of Podcast #6 includes the first part of the trip from Milton Regis (Asda) Halt to Kemsley Down and back. |
Tue, 15 February 2011
This is the long awaited first part of Podcast #6! As it's a new year I have started with an introduction to the Railway and a brief history of the line. The majority of this podcast was recorded in the Bar Car at Kemsley Down in January (on a very cold day!) so the sound quality isn't as good as my Snowball microphone, also it finishes rather abruptly but that was due to a corruption in the recorded file, as it was so close to the end it worked out okay. You'll notice that I don't look at the camera much - sorry about that, I'm not being rude but my autocue program had broken down, also I was intending to use this as a commentary track but actually quite enjoyed the interaction, perhaps the Bar Car (or other coach) could be my studio in the future! Each part will be uploaded as soon as it is done - due to the amount of news, Part 3 may turn into a full blown news programme! Don't forget to email feedback to me at stopem@stopem.net |
