Oct 24, 202300:07:26Tap to summarizeIn this episode I'll share a story about the importance of embracing experimental phases and not being afraid to fail. Drawing inspiration from a speaker at a networking event, I reflect on how having an experimental mindset can benefit podcasters who may be stuck in indecision or haven't started their podcast yet. Trying different approaches, explore various topics, and allow yourself to fail in order to discover what you truly enjoy and are passionate about can be a helpful process.

Oct 5, 202300:08:42Tap to summarizeIn today's episode, we'll be diving into a topic that might make you a little uncomfortable - leveraging your friends and family when launching a new podcast. Feeling hesitant to share your podcast with the people can be hard because you might be fearing judgment or criticism. But telling people about your show can really give you a boost of listeners, and give you the momentum that you won't have if you do a silent launch. Today I share my experience and explain why involving your loved ones can actually help your podcast thrive. When I started my two podcasts I kept them under wraps, only to find out that hardly anyone was listening. It wasn't until word got out through the interviews I conducted that people started to take notice. We'll explore the benefits of involving your family and friends right from the beginning stages of your podcast. They may possess valuable skills that can enhance your show, like graphic design or audio engineering. And by seeking their input, you can create anticipation and simply just let people know what you have coming. So when you do launch, people are waiting.

Oct 3, 202300:13:21Tap to summarizeShure just released the Shure SM7dB, which is the follow up to the podcast industry standard mic, the Shure SM7B. This mic is a long time coming and Shure really fixed the one major issue with the SM7b. Although it's a great mic, it was so gain heavy you needed to use an external preamp in order to really use it. With the new SM7dB, you no longer need one. Tune in as I talk about the details of this new mic and why I 'm really excited about it!
