Episode 15: Master the Podcasting Journey: Essential Tips from Podcast Hall of Famer Todd Cochrane
IN MEMORIAM: A Tribute to Todd Cochrane – Pioneer, Mentor, and Podcasting Hall of Famer
With heavy hearts, we share one of Todd’s final interviews, recorded August 2025. As the founder of Blubrry and a true podcasting pioneer, Todd’s impact on our industry cannot be overstated.
I had the privilege of interviewing Todd Cochrane just weeks before his sudden passing. Todd wasn’t just the founder of Blubrry – he was a mentor, pioneer, and champion of independent podcasters everywhere.
From a $14.95 Walmart microphone to the Podcast Hall of Fame, Todd showed us all what’s possible with passion and persistence.
Key Highlights from our conversation:
• The birth of podcasting through Geek News Central
• Essential wisdom for podcast success
• The importance of owning your content and feed
• Building sustainable monetization strategies
• Todd’s incredible journey from Navy veteran to tech innovator
Todd’s Legacy:
• Founded Blubrry Podcasting (RawVoice)
• Created the PowerPress WordPress plugin
• Established the Podcast Awards
• Inducted into the inaugural Podcast Hall of Fame (2015)
• Maintained podcasting’s longest sponsorship (GoDaddy, 20 years)
“I’m not a Joe Rogan, nor will I ever be. But what I am is a guy that grew up in the country with humble beginnings… And by God, if I can do this and succeed and grind and put out a show – anyone can.”
Thank you, Todd, for everything you gave to the podcasting community. Your legacy lives on.
