FTL & LRN.FM Updates

Have you been watching Freer Talk Live?

November 9th, 2019 - 4:08pm by FTL_Admin in

"Freer Talk Live" is the name for our aftershow that we perform exclusively on our video streaming platforms, DLive and Twitch . Though Freer Talk Live episodes can happen anytime we feel like doing it, Jay Noone, Silver Dave, and Nobody have consistently been doing weekly episodes on Wednesdays for the last couple of months. If you want to watch past episodes, check out the archives on the LRN.FM YouTube here .

If you'd like to watch them perform live, tune into DLive or Twitch starting at 10:30pm Eastern time on Wednesday evenings. If you're not yet following our channel on either platform, please do that. We recently crossed 1,000 followers on Twitch and are close to 900 on DLive.

Direct download problems continue.

November 3rd, 2019 - 4:41pm by FTL_Admin in

Unfortunately for the last couple of weeks our Soundcloud account has been serving up incorrect filenames when trying to directly download from FreeTalkLive.com. Soundcloud has yet to fix this issue and I haven't decided how much longer I want to wait for it. If you are a direct downloader, you can temporarily fix the problem by renaming the generic filename of "Soundcloud Download" to have a .mp3 after it. Our file naming system is FTLYYYY-MM-DD.mp3, but you can name the files whatever you want, so long as it ends in .mp3, it should play back just fine on your preferred listening device.

I'm told that the filename issue is not affecting our podcast listeners. If you would like to move from direct downloads to automatic podcast downloads, please subscribe to our podcast. You can just enter this URL into your podcast client: http://feeds.feedburner.com/ftlradio or subscribe to one of our other feeds at...

Freer Talk Live & Episode one of the James Wittekind Show!

October 12th, 2019 - 11:04am by FTL_Admin in

During last night's Freer Talk Live featuring me, Nobody, and Captain Kickass, raving lunatic James Wittekind called in and we gave him his own show. If you love James' drunken rants, you'll find 20+ minutes of him in the latest episode of Freer Talk Live . Plus, before he calls in, we talk about the latest with Facebook's Libra and more! It was a great show.

There's a chance the story will hit tomorrow - Monday - and then we can share it with you and you can share it on your social media. There's viral potential on this one for sure.

Now Accepting Stellar Lumens (XLM)!

September 28th, 2019 - 11:18am by FTL_Admin in

As we discussed recently on the show, Stellar is a very exciting technology for native exchange of assets like stablecoins and other cryptos. I'm using Stellar Lumens (XLM) on our Discord as my primary tipping method with our new crypto tip bot . Now, we're accepting contributions via Stellar Lumens - see our wallet address along with several other cryptos on our Tip Jar page .

Don't forget you can follow Free Talk Live on Twitter , Mastodon , and Telegram !

Thanks for listening to and supporting Free Talk Live, Ian

Now you can get paid to hang out on our Discord thanks to the awesome tipping bot!

September 23rd, 2019 - 10:21pm by FTL_Admin in

This is such cool news I thought it deserves its own email. This weekend I was recommended a new bot for our Discord server . Normally bots are used for things like moderation but this bot, tip.cc ., is a crypto tipping bot. This bot is amazing. It lets you easily tip anyone on the LRN.FM Discord server . Not only can you tip other chatters, your favorite callers, and favorite show hosts - most are on Discord - but you can also "airdrop" crypto into a chat room and let anyone who wants it, lock in their claim. After a time limit specified by the tipper, the airdrop is divvied up between those who opted-in. You can do some other neat stuff with the bot. Its username is "tip.cc". Just send it a private message of "$help" - without the quotes - to learn some basics. Click the little icons that appear under its help message to see even more commands.
