  • Podcasting is an EXPENSIVE hobby — if that's all that it is. In this episode, we're talking about why treating your podcast purely as a hobby is a bad idea. The challenges of time, necessity of research, and the required financial investment in creating and maintaining a high-quality podcast are why most "hobby podcasts" fail — especially for those attempting to do everything on their own. As always, we recommend outsourcing as much as you can (editing, clip creation, etc), but comes with its own costs. Rather, it is important to think of your podcast as a business. Tune and to find out why!

  • The best way to optimize your time and effectively market your business is to start a podcast. Does that sound counterintuitive? "But I thought maintaining a consistent podcast takes a TON of time..." you might say. It can... but it doesn't have to. And we would argue that it shouldn't. The amount of content that can be produced out of a 30-45 minute podcast episode is astounding and we're going to tell you all about it in this week's episode. That's the value of starting a podcast as a business owner.

  • AI, oh my! We're comparing 2 popular platforms for modern podcasters — Riverside.fm and Descript. At first glance, you may think these are totally different platforms. Most think of Riverside as a great remote recording platform and Descript as a fantastic text-based audio/video editor. However, a closer look will reveal that they are actually very similar in what they offer. Riverside has recently rolled out a suite of AI features, including text-based editing and AI-generated show notes. And Descript just acquired SquadCast, a rival remote recording platform to Riverside. But how do these 2 platforms match up? What are the pros and cons? Tune in to find out!

  • The joke in podcasting is that you spend 30 minutes recording a podcast AND THEN spend 3 hours editing it. That's not a very good use of your time and it ultimately leads to "podcast burn out". In the next few episodes, we're talking about assembling your podcast team. And we believe the very first thing you should do is hire out your editing. We're also going to draw a distinction between hiring freelancers from Fiverr and Upwork and hiring experienced, professional editors. And if you want to see a professional audio editor in action, watch this video of Kyle at work!
