AFIA Podcast

How can you get good music for your podcast?

I know that many of you might be expecting me to give you a website or online resource as the place where you can get good music for your podcast. I will not give you that. 

What I did to get the music for the African Father in America podcast was to call nine different producers in Africa and Seattle. This episode focuses on the actual calls that I made to get the music for this podcast. 

After calling some of the best producers that I could reach from my phone book, I failed to get anyone of them to even pick up my phone. When you listen to this episode you will learn how I dealt with my failure. I have now heard back from many of the producers I reached out to and most of the music playing as the soundtrack for the African Father in America came from a few of them.

My hope is that you also learn how to be patient with yourself even when failure is imminent!
