Frequently asked questions

Question 1

What is dLogos?

Accepted Answer

A public record of which conversations people want to hear. You nominate a guest for a specific show, other fans vote, and the count sits on a page anyone can read, including the host.

Question 2

How does a vote work?

Accepted Answer

Open the show's page, then add your vote to a nomination that already exists or start one yourself.

Every vote is public, timestamped, and attached to a real person and a real show. One account counts once per guest per show.

Question 3

Do I need an account?

Accepted Answer

An email address is enough to vote and to comment. Signing in with X or Google is required to start a nomination or to edit something you posted.

Question 4

Does the host see any of this?

Accepted Answer

Every podcast has a page whether or not the host has claimed it, and demand accumulates either way. If a host is not watching today, the record is still there when they are ready.

Hosts who claim their show see the data first.

Question 5

Can I nominate someone who is not on X?

Accepted Answer

Yes. An X handle is optional. A guest with no account is nominated by name and gets the same page, the same vote count, and the same questions as anyone else.

Question 6

What can I do besides vote?

Accepted Answer

Suggest topics and questions, and upvote the ones already on the page. Then share it, because a nomination moves when people who care about that guest find it.

A host ends up with both halves: who the audience wants, and what they want asked.

Question 7

Will my vote get the episode booked?

Accepted Answer

Booking stays with the host. What changes is what they decide on.

Buzzsprout's 2026 survey of 271 podcasters found that 69.7% source guests through their personal network. A ranked page of named people and the questions they submitted is evidence a host can check.

No episode has aired through dLogos yet.

Question 8

What does audience-driven podcasting mean?

Accepted Answer

It names one change: who decides which question comes next. Long, unscripted, question-driven conversation already survives in podcasting. dLogos moves the choice of guest and question to the people listening.

Edison Research put monthly podcast listening at 58% of Americans age 12 and up in 2026, about 167 million people. Almost none of them have a structured way to tell a host who they want to hear.

Question 9

Does it cost anything?

Accepted Answer

No. Nominating, voting, suggesting questions, and sharing are free.
