The coronavirus pandemic has rendered one of the most significant impacts on society in the last century. The results of this impact have seen businesses close, processes change, and, unfortunately, hundreds of thousands of people die.

COVID-19 has forced us into home schooling, working from home, and, as podcasters, finding new ways to create content. If there's a silver lining to be found in all of this craziness, it's how we've been able to implement technology into our practices to ensure we stay connected and keep the podcast content coming.

Welcome to the first-ever roundtable discussion on Pod Theory! On this 60th episode of the show, I am joined by fellow podcasters to discuss the impact the pandemic has had on podcasters, some of the positives that have been uncovered through these difficult times, and where we all see the podcast medium going in 2021 and beyond.

I am happy to be joined for this roundtable discussion by:
