Dave Throws Down the Podcast Gauntlet - A Bold 24 Hour Challenge Coming This February
In this Daily Dave bonus episode of The How-To Podcast Series, Dave shares an idea that came to him during an overnight shift and quickly refused to let go. Known for working nights and pushing creative limits, Dave wonders what would happen if he fully leaned into that rhythm and turned it into a podcasting experiment unlike anything he has done before.
The concept is simple and extreme at the same time. Dave is seriously considering recording, editing, and publishing 24 complete podcast episodes in 24 consecutive hours. The challenge would begin at 10 a.m. on Friday, February 13, and run straight through until 10 a.m. on Saturday, February 14, with a brand new episode released every single hour. No sleep, minimal breaks, lots of coffee, and total commitment to the process.
This episode is Dave thinking out loud, inviting listeners into the creative chaos as he works through the logistics. He talks about streaming the entire marathon live using Boomcaster, leaving the stream running so listeners can drop in at any hour to see how things are going. From clear-headed teaching moments early on to whatever happens after the twelve hour mark, Dave is open about the fact that it will likely get messy, silly, and very real.
Dave has already outlined 24 episode ideas, many focused on podcasting basics, while others may lean into experimentation and fun. He hints at possible visual elements, maybe even pulling out a guitar to create a custom intro during the marathon. Above all, this challenge is about creativity, endurance, and a genuine love of podcasting.
Listeners are encouraged to share feedback, ideas, name suggestions, and survival tips, or simply to tune in and witness the experiment unfold. Whether you join live or catch the episodes later, the result will be 24 new episodes ready to listen to on your own schedule.
Key Takeaway:
This episode is a reminder that growth in podcasting often comes from bold experiments. You do not need permission to try something ambitious. Sometimes the best ideas start as a wild thought on a night shift and turn into a challenge that pushes both your creativity and your limits.
