Titans' Billboard

This is the code used to make a chrome extesion that shows answers to the question "If you had a huge billboard, what would you put on it?" asked on the Tim Ferriss Showssfdasdfsdfa

It was done using a semi-automatic approach

Approach

  1. The scrapper scraps Tim Ferriss' page and populates a database with all the episodes that have at least one guest.
  2. The scrapper also finds each episode's audio URL and exact position on which the question gets answered (as specified in the show notes) and updates the DB records
  3. webListener Is a react app that plays each episode's audio from when the question is asked, and presents me with a text-area where I type the guest's answer, the answer then is saved.
  4. The chrome extension in /chrome talks to an Amazon Lambda function that provides a random episode record, including the billboard answer, of course.
