Hmm. Advert slot available on Overcast, just as I am about to take a break. I guess I'll give it a miss.

The desert boot has removable insoles. I may see whether they have those in stock here.

By which time I had found the styles was referring to. Very tempted.

Are the footbeds removable? Because I do have these very expensive made to measure orthotics.

Stupid website thinks that because I'm in Italy, I don't want to see what you sent. But I have enough clues to see for myself.

I'm the same with my very wide Asics, but almost every other pair gives me some degree of discomfort. Maybe I'll look at some closed Birkenstocks.

OMG, a fellow sufferer of Morton's. What a bugger it is too. My podiatrist gives me inserts but I honestly have no idea whether they do any good, long term. Maybe they slow down my decline. Who knows. Right at the outset she gave me a shot of cortisone, and that seemed to help. Maybe I need another.

@kdfrawg I'm sure you deserve that.

When I first tried, using Google speech to text, I would cut theknown crap out, then play out of my loudspeaker and into a microphone into google. That did a pretty good job of translating, and it was interesting to see its guesses change as context grew. Per paragraph, I would copy from Chrome and paste into a document. But more than a paragraph, Google would often lose the entire text.

Anyway, then I would do paper edits and cut the audio to suit, but not go back to the text for a transcript. And I only did it for somewhat complex constructed stories, where I needed to know all the tape I had. Not for simple interviews. So I didn't produce transcripts.

Now I'm thinking I might actually be able to do transcripts of finished audio, because it accepts MP3s and one pass of editing the text will probably be enough.

Alas, my backlog is more than 100 episodes by now …

Rewind pedal built in. Shift space, as I recall. No price, yet, but I'm hoping there'll be an affordable (free?) tier for small time users like me.
