Show HN: Scroll Podcasts Like TikTok

YouTube takes free uploaded podcasts clips and charges us outrageous premium fees to view.

The obvious alternative is to use a podcast app but I like the 10-20min clips and recommendation engine on YouTube. So I built podtoc.com to serve LLM generated podcast clips youtube-feed style.

The Tech:

- LLM Pipeline: I built a pipeline to extract meaningful clips from long-form content, specifically designed to capture one of the core insights covered in the podcast.

- Recommendation Engine: Suggests clips based on previous listening to solve the discovery problem.

- The App: A React Native (Web/iOS) app featuring a "swipe to next" UI for seamless browsing.

If this sounds like a problem you’ve faced, I’d love to hear:

1. Which podcasts would you like to see added to the library?

2. Any feedback on the UI or bugs you encounter?

3. Any questions about the pipeline or suggestions for the recommendation logic? (would love to open source after some cleanup)
