How Does This Thing Work, Anyway?
Podcasting is a boom, growing on the strength of a new golden age of audio. But unless we do this as a hobby, there’s a legitimate business case for podcasting, with all of the complexities, all of the challenges, and all of the opportunities to fall flat on your face when starting a podcast - or a podcast network. Join us as we discuss our guests’ experiences starting their own podcasts, podcast networks, and advising podcasters on how to not end up flat on their face.
What is the business case in pensive moments scored by sad marimba music and stories we find interesting?
