Cronofobia Podcast
A daily podcast with 500+ episodes in Brazilian Portuguese
Answering any question from anyone
The format was simple: any person could ask any question anonymously or not through a form in a website. I would get these questions, list them, and answer one by one in a mini podcast — 5 to 10 minutes per episode, tops.
That fueled 525 episodes with themes ranging from polyamory, through communism, to food options in Germany.
I recorded with family, friends, and professional contacts, but most of it is me and a microphone — and an automated editing workflow.
The podcast is recorded in Brazilian Portuguese and still can be listened to at Spotify Podcasts ➹ — it has an RSS feed also, for other podcast players.

Why “coding”?
This project is also under the “coding” category in my portfolio for a simple reason: building the script used in Audacity to basically automate my editing process was a coding effort.
I even researched how to do it in a CLI, but the results were not that good, so I stayed with Audacity’s macro functions.
