During the weekend of November 1-2, I had the opportunity to speak to a standing-room-only room filled with budding content creators talking about my favorite subject. Media. The funny thing is, while I was teaching principles of monetization, the event was teaching me about hosting a premier, intimate affair. DC Podfest is an event geared towards the education and insights of podcasting within the DC Metro Area. While smaller than most conventions, this event is big on heart, and I walk you through what I learned from being a speaker and an attendee.
