Hooray for first episode! It was a nice, calm listen while I had a cozy mug of tea, which feels fitting for the theme of rest!
Substack vs Spotify: Because I don’t use Spotify, I played around a little and discovered I can listen to the embedded Spotify link just fine within the Substack article, even though I don’t have the Spotify app installed—huzzah! So from that perspective, either option works for me. I think I prefer the Substack version better, though, because Substack registers that article as a podcast and marks it differently in my feed. I like that delineation so I know up-front it’s something I should listen to (rather than read). I do like the longer description/extra information you had within the Spotify article—if that’s a sustainable option to continue, I enjoy those bonus goodies!
In summary, my vote is the written content of the Spotify article but the interface of the Substack podcast/listening component.
