I do love deep takes on history like this. But I am a big fan of written stuff over podcasts or video (e.g., the well deservedly popular acoup.blog) just because I read faster than I listen, so I have a lot of love for podcasts that post transcripts.

For podcasts that don't, does anyone know of a tool that might be able to generate a reasonably accurate transcript? I'm probably putting too much faith in the ability of ML to transcribe Vijayanagara correctly, but I'm hoping I'm wrong.

(And I'm aware I'm losing some of the value of this podcast - the readings in Sanskrit, the traditional music - in looking for transcripts, but I'd pay that price to dive into new information at a rate that suits me better.)



Listennotes. But expensive. (Have not used it for transcription, but often use it to search)


Thanks, I'll check it out :)


Hmm seems they don't offer this any more. Or I remembered wrong. But I am quite sure it was part of their offer earlier.


You can get a near perfect transcript of just about anything, by using the adobe transcript tool in Adobe Premiere. But it requires a Creative Cloud subscription. Cheapest plan is about 20 dollars a month.


I listen to all my podcasts at at least 2X speed. It ends up being about the same speed as reading for comprehension.
