Today we attempt to use Riverside.fm as a streaming platform. This is a remote recording tool that gives you separate tracks for both video and audio. We did not have a good experience with it as a streaming tool.

If you need artwork, a logo, a custom podcast website, or a full-on branding audit, let the award-winning graphic artist (and fellow podcaster Mark Des Cotes make that great, professional first impression. see www.podcastbranding.co

In addition to playing with a different platform, we talked about starting a podcast with basic tools and working your way up. You don't need to start with a giant studio.

We also talk about the new Tascam Mixcast 4 

It is VERY similar to the Rodcaster Pro (both in price and features) but there is also software that seems pretty slick.

Joe Rogan Quote:
What I tell people about podcasting is you can't make money in podcasting if you're trying to do podcasting to make money. But if you want to do a good job, just want to make great podcast and you just keep doing it, I can't guarantee, but you probably will make money.
