Yo! Podcast

Yo! Podcast now powered by Bold Video

Since joining Bold Video as a co-founder, I’m excited to share the new Yo! Podcast website experience (yo.fm), powered by the platform.

With the integration into Bold Video, you can:

  1. Find episodes or topics quickly (preview)
  2. Generate key takeaways from each episode, via sidebar chat (preview)
  3. Ask me to extract insights, compiled across ALL EPISODES, into a concise format (preview)

Note: Bold is not primarily targeting podcasts (our ICP is coaches/educators with hundreds of videos recorded for their private online community) but it has 10x'd my previous static podcast experience. I'm so chuffed!

Here are some screenshots, demonstrating the integration:

New Yo! Podcast home page

Pretty straight forward home view (yo.fm) with newest episodes at the top but now with suggested questions to ask in the hero:

New header search: quick-find episodes or topics

After steering to the top-right search bar, you can search for people interviewed (eg. Derek Sivers) or topics mentioned (eg. Burnout). Note how it surfaced how Rasmus, Jeff and Gal all talked about burnout:

New video sidebar chat: ask questions or summarize conversation points

Here I ask why Gal Shir stopped posting on his YouTube. This is great for recaps once you've listened to the podcast on-the-go or need a refresher months later.

Ask Rob: the true Bold Video magic ✨

Bold indexes all our interviews then adds its secret sauce to each conversation, to help the answer engine work faster and more accurate. You can demo it here: yo.fm/ask

Bold also has settings to customize the AI chat dialogue. As you can see I've added some casual tones. Also note the useful citations and even an option to follow up questions at the bottom:

Let's try another:

Exciting right!

We are still in Beta, so please send as much feedback as possible (rob at boldvideo dot com) - hope you have fun with it :)
