Need a podcast you can put on and barely pay attention to? Something with the sound quality of a phone call? Something that's meaningful and meaningless at the same time?
I would like to suggest my podcast: Black Box Recordings, by InMyOwnWorld. An unscripted, unedited, unfocused, unmonetized podcast by me, InMyOwnWorld.
I'm a white, queer, multiply neurodivergent, multiply disabled, middle-aged, non-binary anti-capitalist with an adult onset tic disorder who is trying to cope with... well, everything.
One of the ways I cope is to talk to an imaginary audience, and, as long as I'm talking, I figured I may as well see if anyone wants to listen.
Originally conceived of as videos with my voice and a completely black screen, Black Box Recordings has become a podcast instead. An ad-free podcast consisting of disjointed ramblings, usually as a way to organize my thoughts and encourage myself to get things done around the house, posted according to no schedule whatsoever.
Why a podcast of me rambling about whatever crosses my mind?
Because it will make me feel a little more connected to other people, whether or not it creates any connections. It's a placebo, to make talking to myself feel a little more productive and somehow push past some of my executive function issues with starting things. It's a scream into the void. It's turning the void into an ADHD body double.
The podcast is just me, putting my bluetooth earpiece in, opening up the Voice Recorder app, and pacing around the house while talking to you, my potential future audience. You'll get whatever's on my mind, for however long my brain can maintain focus on it.
Enjoy.
Quickest way to find me on your podcatcher is to search for InMyOwnWorld (all one word).
I hope someone out there finds the podcast useful. I know I do.
