   My podcast colleague @Beantin alerted me to how Spotify have started attaching automated transcripts to our episodes.
   
   And of course the automated tool gets my name quite wrong: "Hello I'm Pat Axbul".
   
   So I had to check. How can I change that? As it turns out, I'm not allowed to. According to Spotify: "It's currently not possible to edit your transcripts in Spotify for Podcasters."
   
   In my case it's a small thing, but now imagine what harmful faulty text may make it into transcripts and be attributed to a person who has said nothing of the sort. And they are not allowed to change it.
   
   Don't you just love living in this time and age where foresight is 0/0?
   
   (P.S. It got James' name wrong too)
