808 - Going Deeper Into the Vibe Coding Rabbit Hole

 

In this episode, I take you even further down the rabbit hole of vibe coding and share what I have built in just one week using Replit and AI-assisted development. What started as curiosity quickly turned into a fully functioning software tool I am actively using in my own workflow.

I walk through the evolution of my new app, PodBriefer—why I built it, how it works, and the real-world problems it solves for me as a coach working with entrepreneurs who are also content creators.

I explain how the app lets me subscribe to podcasts, search the Apple Podcasts directory, store episodes locally for instant access, generate transcripts, download audio files, and analyze content without the friction I used to accept as normal.

I also share how I am using custom GPTs to create deep-dive summaries, pull quotes, action items, and insights from transcripts. You will hear how I connected the app to Kindle to automatically turn podcast episodes into EPUBs, complete with cover art, show notes, transcripts, and a table of contents, so I can read, highlight, and extract notes directly into my thinking and journaling workflow.

Along the way, I talk candidly about costs, tradeoffs, beta limitations, and what this kind of tool might make possible in the future, both for me and potentially for others. This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at how AI is changing the way I build, think, and work right now.
