Today I talk about one start reviews. While there may be points made (your volume is all over the place, it's not loud enough, too much chit chat) that you may need to take a serious look at, in some cases, the people who leave a review are simply not…

Most media hosts offer a "Show Player" or Jukebox of some sort that allows you to display multiple episodes. This is a great tool for those who want to binge your show. They press play, and off it goes one episode right after the other. I'm seeing more and more…

I know there are no "Shoulds" in podcasting, but for me, it seems like people are so that doing an interview show is the fastest way to build your audience (it's not - doing a GOOD show is), and we have people wanted to get paid (even though its the…

Here is a link to Apple's Marketing Tools. https://tools.applemediaservices.com/apple-podcasts I do like the QR code, just remember not everyone uses an iPhone or Apple product. A LARGE number of people outside the US use android phones. For me, why not provide a link to YOUR website where people can subscribe…

If you need to convert an XML to CSV, or RSS to Excel, these steps will do it in Excel. I know there are tools online, but most of them didn't do the whole feed (and I have over 700+ episodes). By keeping a list, it makes it easier to…

Disclosure: The Zoom Podtrak on P8 was on loan from Zoom. I was not compensated for this review. http://www.schoolofpodcasting.com/p8 http://www.schoolofofpodcasting.com/rodecaster I've enjoyed using the Rodecaster this year, but there are "little things" that you don't realize bug you (like being able to delete a file, or rename it) until someone…

I had three people forward this email to me. There are things in this pitch that make it sound like they are offering "special" things (adding you to Apple) and they don't provide enough details (who owns the show) and much of this pitch "is happening soon." In my opinion,…

Note: Dave's internet provider went on the fritz throughout this episode and eventually he just lost all contact and Jim finished solo. He did a great job and as the old saying goes, "The Show Must Go On." Live podcast is always fun... well, not always. 02:31 Multiple Shows 05:15…
