Pocky Day

Pocky Day is a popular event in Japan. The event is celebrated by eating pocky with your friends and family and sharing photos in social media under the #pockyday tag. Pocky are long biscuit sticks covered in chocolate. The day November 11th was chosen to hold this event because of the shape of the sticks.
The popularity of Pocky Day has transcended Japan, and although in the rest of the world Pocky is not as popular, fans celebrate it just the same, creating content of their favorite characters eating Pocky together or playing the Pocky Game.
On the Pocky Game, two people eat a Pocky stick from each end. The first person whose mouth comes off the Pocky or the other player gets to the middle first loses. If the participants end up kissing, it is a tie. The prospect of the accidental kiss makes Pocky Day popular with shippers and every year, the tag fills with fanarts and fanfics of their OTP eating pocky and playing the Pocky Game.
Pocky Day is not a fannish event per se, but the amount of content that is generated on that day, both in Japan and in the rest of the world, is remarkable enough to have an impact on fandoms.
==Fanfiction==
The Pocky Game tag on AO3. Fanfics about The Pocky Game are written all year round, but most of the content originates on Pocky Day.
Although fanfics about The Pocky Game can be done at any time of the year, most are published on November 11th. These fics are usually short, fluffy slice of life oneshots where two characters play the Pocky Game. It is usual that one of the players doesn't know the rules and the other has to explain what the game is about. Reactions when learning what the game is about are usually excitement, shock or amusement. Sometimes, the game takes a quirky twist, with one of the characters nicking the sweets but kissing the other anyway.
Some examples of this are:
* Pocky Up by kritcreeperkat_ kritcreeperkat_ a Kyan Reki/Hasegawa Langa from SK8 The Infinity where they play The Pocky Game
* Marble Royal Milk Tea Pocky by ClaireBonnefoy a Suoh Tamaki/Ohtori Kyouya from Ouran High School Host Club
* pink cheeks and sweet kisses by EllaYuki a Natsu Dragneel/Lucy Heartfilia from Fairy Tail
* Cookies and Cream by Anonymous a Gemini Saga/Pisces Aphrodite from Saint Seiya

Pod Farr

Pod Farr is an all-consuming desire to podfic. It is a reference to Star Trek term Pon Farr: a biological imperative to mate (or in the instance of Pod Farr, to make podfic.)
In an interview with the OTW, blackglass described it as a condition "where you're completely overwhelmed with the urge to record this fic right now." Others have described it as an intense desire to record podfic in general, not necessarily one particular fic, and/or the state of mind while recording lots of podfic as a result of that desire.
Con Farr and Vid Farr also exist, referring to similar states experienced by Con-goers and vidders, although it is likely that they were all coined independently of each other in reference to the original Vulcan Pon Farr.
==History==
The term has been in use since 2010, possibly coined by anatsuno, who made a dreamwidth post about the term during remopodmo:

Pod Save America

Pod Save America is a progressive political podcast distributed by Crooked Media and co-hosted by Jon Favreau, Tommy Vietor, Jon Lovett, and Daniel Pfeiffer. It was started in the wake of the 2016 U.S. presidential election, though the co-hosts had previously done similar podcasts. Other hosts of Crooked Media podcasts, employees, and the significant others of hosts are the focus of the fandom, as well as crossover with Political RPF and some Pundit RPF. The podcast started in January 2017, and by March fans were writing fanfic about the co-hosts.
The community is tight-knit and by convention is extremely dedicated to staying private and not drawing the attention of the real people in the fanworks by crossing the Fourth Wall. Crooked Media RPF fanworks have been on AO3 since April 2017, and as of 2020 all 600+ works are archive-locked. Fan accounts on platforms such as Tumblr and Twitter are also private or locked, or avoid using searchable terms or tags. There have been a few minor Fourth Wall scares that caused distress in the fandom. In April 2018 Aja Romano began tweeting about her observations of Pod Save America RPF, tagging and mentioning the real people in the RPF by name. This was not the first time Aja had indicated she might write an article about RPF (see Hockey RPF and the Fourth Wall) and received a negative and defensive reaction from fans who did not want their activities publicized. Aja ultimately did not indicate that she intended to write about the fandom. The most significant breach was in December 2018, when a host of Crooked Media podcast Keep It said on that podcast that somebody had told him of "slash fic" between Tommy and a politician. Tommy responded with confusion on Twitter.
The most popular ship appears to be Jon Lovett/Tommy Vietor. There is also a large amount of poly shipping. Most shipping involves the three co-hosts Jon Favreau, Tommy Vietor, and Jon Lovett.
The fandom generally refers to Jon Favreau as "Favs" and Jon Lovett as "Lovett" to avoid confusion. In the fandom, "Campaign Era" refers to the time when the hosts met before the Obama presidency, "White House Era" is the period when the hosts were working in the Obama administration, and "LA Era" is the period after the hosts left Washington DC but before Pod Save America began.

Podbook

A podbook is a podfic that has been formatted as an audiobook, usually an m4b file with cover art.
==History==
Cybel, who compiled the first fannish audiobooks of podfic in July 2007, has been credited with coining the term, with Cybel's first LiveJournal post regarding podfic audiobooks being posted on 11 July 2007.See MVP Podfic Audiobook (SGA), archived 
The word podbook appeared shortly after in the podslash comm, on 29 August 2007.See Supernatural Podbook: Of Bastard Saints. archive.isCybel. Podfics, Podslash, Podbooks, Trendsetting and Activism, archived. Posted to LiveJournal 17 September 2007. (Accessed 5 July 2012) 
Cybel quickly became a prolific podbooker and had compiled over 1,700 podbooks by March 2013According to Cybel's 8 March 2013 Fanlore edit. for various podficcers who posted to Amplificathon. With many podbooks, she included original cover art (see Cybel for examples), thus inciting the spread of podfic cover art along with podbooks.
The term has remained in use, though it was less common as of 2021. Works tagged "podbook" on AO3 were still being posted, although the term was not a canonical tag and synned to podfic, perhaps because the archive adopted the tags "Audio Format: mp3" and Audio Format: m4b" as its standards to indicate file format.
Many podficcers also use "Audiobook" as a synonym for "Podbook".
==Features==
As stated by Cybel, podbooks had several advantages over mp3s, at a time when many mp3 players had only very basic features: 
For a long time, many podficcers shared in the misconception that the m4b format resulted in smaller files than mp3s for the same sound quality. However, this turned out to be a result of Cybel's lower bitrate settings when exporting a podfic into a podbook, which compressed the file.

Podfic Anthology

A podfic anthology is an audio recording of a collection of fanfics. Anthologies are less common than podfics that include a reading of only one story.
Podfic anthologies may be recorded by a single reader (such as Sam/Gabriel Podfic Anthology, recorded by kalakirya) or by multiple readers (such as Old Spice Kinkmeme Anthology). The scope of an anthology may be limited to a single fandom (such as The Merlin Drabble Anthology: Volume 1), or it may include stories from multiple fandoms on a single theme (such as Awesome Ladies Podfic Anthology).

Podfic Love

Podfic Love is a Dreamwidth community (mirrored on tumblr and with associated twitter and Pinboard accounts) that was created in 2013 as "a community for recommendations for fannish vocal performances."podic_love profile Its creation may have been linked to the deletion of the twitter account podficlistner, to fill the void left for regular positive podfic recs.

Podfic Platypus

Podfic Platypus is a podfic-specific Advice Animal. It was inspired by the fanfic-specific Fanfic Flamingo and relies on the meme generator template. 
==History==
The Tumblr account and its mirror Twitter account were created and modded by anatsuno with help from Helens78. It was updated regularly between 2012 and 2013--initially on a daily schedule--and sporadically after that, with a final submission posted in 2016. This is presumably due to a lack of new submissions. 
The Tumblr and Twitter accounts posted the platypus memes as well as posts and asks relating to podfic fandom in general.Anonymous asked: I know nothing about podfic, due to some bad early listening experiences of "aah! someone is hissing in my ear!". I know resources, and thus recording and general sibilant quality, has improved greatly since the early days-- but I have no idea where to look to figure out the ins and outs and standard practice. Is the platypus disposed to pointing a spur in the right direction?, April 9 2012 Anonymous asked: Where do you download podfics from?, April 17, 2012
In 2020, the Platypus made a reappearance on the podfichat Discord server.
==Why a Platypus?==
==Examples==
Anonymous submissions included comments on all aspects of the podfic experience, from the points of view of writers, podficcers, and listeners; it touched on the specifics of the podficcing process as well as on the wider discussions and debates happening in podfic fandom.

Podfic Posting Helper

The AO3 Podfic Posting Helper is a browser extension available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge which streamlines the workflow for creating a new podfic on Archive of Our Own by importing metadata from the original fanfic, such as title, tags, summary and rating, into the new work form. 
It began as a Voiceteam project, and is now dearly beloved by many podficcers for making posting exponentially easier. An audio infomercial was created for a Voiceteam project in 2022.

Podfic Robot

Podfic robot is a term of endearment for a podficcer so prolific that their volume of output seemingly defies the laws of physics.
Depending on the podficcer's process, making a podfic can require a significantly larger time investment than the total number of finished hours produced: the raw file is often twice as long (or more) as the edited version, and editing after recording can take multiple times as long as the raw file. The average speed of reading aloud is sometimes quoted as 10,000 words per hour, so a novel-length fic (60K words) could translate to 50+ hours of work to create a podfic. However, there are a number of faster editing techniques some podficcers use: edit-as-you-go (pause after mistakes and overwrite the mistake), visual editing (click when you make a mistake and only listen/edit the parts of the file that show a spike in the waveform), and not editing at all (do the whole reading in one take).
Even once you account for increased efficiency, questions remain. Do their voices ever tire out? Do they sleep, eat, have jobs, go to school? No, they must be robots.

One feature of the server that has spread to elsewhere in the podfic community is the use of the pretzel emoji as a sort-of-hug expression of support. This is partly as it looks like a heart, and partly as the wires in the server icon look a lot like a pretzel.

Podficmeta

podficmeta is a Dreamwidth community that was created in January 2010 "to articulate and debate aesthetic theories about podfic." (Accessed 27 January 2021.) Although the stated intent of the community was limited to artistic criticism, the community did live up to its name and became a forum for other podfic-related meta discussions.
According to paraka, the community was created as a result of the meta discussion that followed the first podbang in December 2009.official Pod Aware 2014 podcast for Day 1: The History of Podfic, posted 9 November 2014. (Check out the podbang:2009 tag at Amplificathon.) A few days later, zvi made a post on her personal dreamwidth account asking if people would be interested in a new podfic discussion community.zvi. Podfic discussion?, posted to dreamwidth 2009-12-28. webcite
The community was active 2010-2014, but was low-traffic. As of January 2021, the community had 110 posts; 1,545 comments; and 191 members.
The community has been implicated as a problem in some discussions both within and without podfic fandom. In 2010, a few podficcers were concerned about (then) recent changes in podfic fandom:
During the 2013 Fail_fandomanon podfic permission wank, some discussion of the ffa discussion occurred at podficmeta; the community was subsequently cited as a hotbed of podfic radicals.
In 2014, anatsuno spoke in favor of the community's goal--"because podfic is an art form like fic is an art form, we have to have spaces to review it."
