Spotify has added audio books to their platform (great more competition for podcasts! Ugh). 

We talk a little about merchandise and affiliate marketing. There is a new service that seems A LOT fishy, in Dave's opinion. The longer you podcast the more files pile up, so how do you organize them, and what do you do with them (cheap ways to backup your files). 

NEW PATRON!!!

Ronnie from Dancing is Forbidden: An Aqua Teen Hunger Force Exploration 

THANK YOU RONNIE. You should be like Ronnie.

Jim has been meeting one-on-one with his audience and getting great feedback. We also talk about advertising (how many is too many?) based on a new report. Evernote raised their price, and we talk about making sure you understand the tools you have.

Today, we look at the topic of, "Does having an ad int your show make it more legitimate?" I hate this because there are very legitimate shows that NEVER want to monetize, and I can also see a new listener hearing and ad for Ford and thinking, Big Sponsor = Big Show.

I have seen Larry Roberts from Red Hat Media do presentations on Chat GPT multiple times, and when Jim let me know he was out this week, I saw it as an opportunity to bring Larry in have Larry Co-Host. He is also the co-host of the show Branded. The "Cherry on top" was School of Podcasting member Craig Vanslyke from the Live Well and Flourish show (who teaches Information Systems at Louisiana Tech University)

Check out Larry's slides.

Today I talk about a book called Listenable and it mentions how REALLY bad taking a break can be for your show. While I agree consistency is important, Jim has taken a few breaks off and on (as does this show occasionally) so we ask is it really REALLY bad?

This episode covered a wide range of topics, from recommendations vs feed drops to event experiences, audio engineering, and more. Here are three key takeaways that I think will be valuable for you:

The Power of Clear Communication: As podcast hosts, it's crucial to provide clear information about your show's theme or target audience. This helps potential guests understand the interview questions better, leading to more engaging and insightful conversations.

Navigating the Event Landscape: The episode delves into the speaker's experiences attending various conferences and events. They highlight the advantages of smaller, more intimate gatherings, such as Indipodcon in New Jersey. Smaller events foster meaningful connections and conversations, unlike larger conferences, which can sometimes feel overwhelming.

Feed Drops for Promoting Podcasts: Dave explains the concept of feed drops, where podcasters share an episode from another show on their own platform. We discuss two options: playing the entire episode or providing a host-read endorsement and linking to the episode. Feed drops can be a great way to collaborate and introduce your audience to new content.
