This is the story of how Jack Rhysider built Darknet Diaries from the ground up. The reason to listen is that Jack Rhysider is an open book about his journey finding an audience as a solo indie podcaster. The venn diagram of his audience probably doesn't have a huge amount of overlap with the shows that get breathless reviews in Vulture, so his story is really instructive for people that are outside the newly monied realm of podcasting.
