real life podcasts · recorded in person · published everywhere

you talk.
we do the rest.

your episode, on our desk.

rlpod is a two-person studio. we set up at your place — real room, real mics, warm light — record your episode, and take it all the way: edit, clips, shorts, thumbnails, publishing. you review everything in one app, drop notes in ink, stamp approved — and it ships.

how it works

five steps, one desk. you only touch the one with the marker circle.

deliveredeverywhere

worry-free means worry-free: sync, multicam cut, sound, mastering, metadata, upload — all of it happens on our side. your only job is the fun part: talking, and saying “approved.”

02

what you approve is what ships

every asset is proofed in its destination's own visual language — pixel-close.

no abstract previews. a YouTube proof looks like YouTube, a LinkedIn clip like a LinkedIn post, a Spotify episode like Spotify. our notes stay in handwriting, taped to the frame — never inside the print. when you stamp a proof, you know exactly what your audience will see.

We turned down a €2M term sheet. Here’s the runway math that made it an easy call — on a napkin, in one take. …more

Anna sits down with two founders who walked away from a term sheet. A conversation about runway, sanity, and building slower on purpose.

reviews happen in ink

feedback is a conversation across the desk — pinned to timecodes, answered by humans.

the tangent about office dogs at 00:12:40 — cut it? funny but long.
jonas · rlpodjul 10 · 16:50
agreed. trimmed to 40 seconds — kept the punchline, lost the setup. it’s a clip candidate though, saved it.

the desk, in your pocket

the review desk is an app — cuts land on your phone, your ink flies back.

the moment a cut renders, it’s on your phone. watch the clip, scrub to the exact second, drop a note in ink, compare titles and thumbnails — and stamp it approved from the couch, the train, the green room. your account comes with your production. nothing to set up, nothing to learn.

rlpod app — the editor queue: every clip that's waiting on your feedback
01 · the queue
every cut that's waiting on you — and nothing else.
rlpod app — clip review: frame-accurate player with the editor's handwritten note
02 · the review
scrub to the second. the editor's note is in ink — answer in yours.
rlpod app — the packet: YouTube proof, title options, and the bereit. stamp
03 · the packet
pick a title, check the thumb, tap “bereit.” — it ships.

real screens, not mockups — and yes, the app speaks german. our shows do, too.

two names, one desk

rl = riedmann & lehmann — hiding in plain sight in the wordmark.

the room

mics, cameras, light — and the cut. if it sounds and looks like you were actually there, that was paulus.

Erich Lehmann
the desk

the app and the desk. everything that happens between “that's a wrap” and “it's live” runs across erich's desk.

the longer story lives on the about page.
