Obviously I could just open my video editing software, throw an image onto the canvas, and produce a video… but that's the bare minimum and boring. So I began looking for ways to convert my audio podcasts into videos so that I could share them on Facebook.

That'd be amazing, but unfortunately it's not a reality. Imagine if you pressed Play on an embedded podcast on Facebook, and a player popped up at the bottom corner that continued playing the same podcast as you browsed Facebook and clicked through multiple pages. Huge missed opportunity to keep people on their platform while listening to podcasts. I actually think it's insane how non-existent Facebook is in the podcast market. Soundcloud used to work well, and you could play Soundcloud audio files directly from a FB post, but now they limit audio clips to only about 15 seconds and prompt you to “Listen on Soundcloud” to hear the whole thing. There's no great way to share and embed a podcast on Facebook anymore.
