Transcripts

The podcast faces challenges with transcribing episodes, as Markus explains the current dilemma. Despite having 80 transcripts ready, quality assurance (QA) is needed due to transcription errors 2. Markus calls for volunteers to assist with QA, emphasizing the importance of community support. He outlines the plan for moving forward, saying,

If within a week, we find those 50 or even more people who help us, we'll do the QA with those guys and put things online.
