Podcast memory: how Recall handles podcasts
How Flocci Recall saves and understands podcasts: where they come from, what AI extracts, and the kind of fuzzy query that finds them again.
Recall treats podcasts as a first-class content type with their own accent colour, their own filter chip and their own enrichment path. Episodes resolve through Spotify's official oEmbed, and — where transcription is configured — a verbatim ASR transcript makes the spoken hour searchable by phrase. Once a podcast is saved you can find it by describing it — the summary, key takeaways, topics, entities and bilingual keywords are all searchable.
Where podcasts come from
Recall files a save as a podcast when it arrives from Spotify episodes, any podcast episode URL.
What Recall builds around a podcast
Episodes resolve through Spotify's official oEmbed, and — where transcription is configured — a verbatim ASR transcript makes the spoken hour searchable by phrase.
Queries that find podcasts again
These are the shapes of query Recall is built for — vague, human, and about meaning rather than metadata.
- “the podcast episode about pricing psychology”
- “that episode where they discussed the IPO”
- “podcast on sleep debt”
The honest bit
An unsearchable 90-minute episode is a lost memory. A transcript turns it into a findable one.
Questions about podcasts in Recall
How does Recall know something is a podcast?
From the URL and the content itself, before any AI runs. Podcast detection sits in a deliberately ordered signal list so more specific rules win — and where a fact is available, such as a file extension or the absence of a URL, the fact beats any AI inference.
What does Recall extract from a podcast?
Episodes resolve through Spotify's official oEmbed, and — where transcription is configured — a verbatim ASR transcript makes the spoken hour searchable by phrase.
What can I search for to find a podcast again?
Describe it. Real queries that work include "the podcast episode about pricing psychology", "that episode where they discussed the IPO", "podcast on sleep debt". Recall interprets the description into concepts, ranks your whole library, and narrates what it found in one sentence.
Is anything about podcasts handled differently?
An unsearchable 90-minute episode is a lost memory. A transcript turns it into a findable one.
