Welcome to R-Slash, a podcast where I read the best posts from across Reddit.

Today's subreddit is R-Slash Tales from TechSupport.

Anchor FM is now Spotify for podcasters. If you've ever thought about starting your own podcasts,

then check out Spotify for podcasters, or S4P for short. S4P is a free podcast platform that allows

you to create an edit podcast right from your phone or computer. I really can't recommend them

enough. This is the podcast platform that I personally use. Once you set up your podcast,

S4P will automatically distribute it to all other platforms, like Spotify, Apple podcasts,

and others. It's super easy, super streamlined, and you can start making money immediately.

Download the free S4P app or go to podcasters.spodify.com to get started.

script I'd said a hundred times already. The company decided to use a standard image.

No, I'm sorry you can't change it, etc. The woman paused and said,

Well, I see Hitler is alive and well. I was already annoyed at how much people were complaining

about this, and that's who she compares me to. I responded calmly. Actually, man, Hitler killed

millions of people. This is just a blue background. Then I sat in silence waiting for her to respond.

The reality of what she said hit her full force. She quickly fumbled apologies and hung up.

The other desktop calls didn't stop coming, but at least I felt a little sense of accomplishment,
