jdcarluccioon I am Sam Altman, President of Y Combinator – AMA

Hi Sam, thanks for your time. Appreciate it.

Wanted to ask you what do you think about Chamath comments about the lack of diversity in VC partners affecting the companies they invest? How do you see this affecting YC?

jdcarluccioon Ask HN: Have any Mexicans ever been accepted into Y Combinator?

There is not an answer for the country of origin but of the demographic (race and gender). I wrote about it here: https://medium.com/@JDcarlu/what-is-wrong-with-sv-networks-a... PS:I'm latino

jdcarluccioon I want to turn your idea into a demo

The capability of giving anyone a monetization channel. Mobile Podcaster is really good, but its just a recording/publishing app. The main features they have is to add intro and publish directly to WordPress. There is no editing to add commercials or ads that can monetize your podcast. Also the feature I'm talking about should be from the listener to the producer (not the other way around). So if I listen to your podcast and I want to advertise my site in it, I just select a "free space" on your episode and record myself or upload my ad.

Hey guys. I listen to many podcast and I'm even considering starting one with some friends. The problem is that there are no great apps in which you could do all the podcast on them instead of using several softwares.

It would be awesome if there was a podcast-creator-app, with already back sound tracks, templates, interviews questions, story telling ideas, ways to do conclusions , even quotes.

Give the opportunity toeveryone to be able to make their own podcast

What if you could add your own advertiser on the go? Hear a podcast and you find a great moment to ad an ad of your company, you want to ad it and pay for it. How can I get into the audio and get my ad there, pay for it and go. Just one click to ad your advertising to that podcast, you put your credit card and you just talk or upload your prerecord ad. This will create revenue for people that create great podcasts but don't know how to market them.

Issues to consider: 1-How this will affect the quality of the podcast ( specific places to upload the ad)

2-The ad must be accepted (so it won't get troll or stuff not related) but it should be smooth to add your credit card and audio and get in. (stripe?)

Flexibility: You don't need pre establish format. You don't need a contract or pay for every episode, you pay for that one because you felt it.

See you!
