I’ve never felt like a bigger idiot than when I try to explain the fediverse to normal people.

I find it easier if the other person is a podcast listener.

"You know how podcast ads usually say 'listen to it in Apple or Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts?' It's a bit like that."

If not, I have to say something weak or complicated like "it's a bit like email, dunno how to explain this if you have never thought about how email works, though".

I usually start with email, but I wonder if podcasts would be smarter. when I read what you said, my first thought was"but podcasts require you to upload to every instance that you want to be seen on" and then I realized that for the people that are just trying to get content this doesn't matter. That's actually genius.
