Tapes and Film are Still a Reality
Wednesday morning, I spent 3-hours getting a whole bunch of stuff done at the doctor's office. Nothing serious, just getting a physical done after not stepping into a doctor's office since 2004. I had to get some other work done and had a conversation with the...
Your Goals & Audience Dictate Your Podcast Length
"The one sure way to know something someone tells you about podcasting is bullshit is that they are convinced that they can’t be wrong.” The most experienced podcast experts know only slightly more than the least experienced. If you march to their beat too closely,...
Fine Time for a Podcasting Association
Interesting debate happening in regards to the Marie Claire podcast. There's seems to be very little difference between an advertorial and editorial in their podcast. I had a short freelance journalist career while in university which continued a couple years after...
The Brokeback Podcaster
The Brokeback Podcaster is a term you'll find in the introduction of my book. This is the person that adamantly says that you should never make money podcasting, but then complains that they're tired of doing the editing stuff and wish they could hire someone to do it...
I’m Celebrating a Milestone (Actually 2)
I recently published the 10th episode of my podcast, Podonomics. That's something to celebrate about, huh? Not just that but I just passed the one year anniversary of launching my award winning blog by the same name. So I said to myself: "Self, how could I share my...

Title doesn't make a whole lot of sense as I didn't want to put everything there when I'm going to explain what I need below. Follow along. As I'm writing the chapter on measuring your podcast, I'm trying to explain feed requests. Now, feed requests are any request...
Oral History Legitimized by Podcasting
I picked up an issue of Time magazine while waiting at the doctor's office this morning. It was the first time in months that I read one - a magazine that is - so I was curious to see what was going on in the pages. Sadly, I was in the doctor's office long enough to...
Working on Something Just for You
I searched my archives and found a bunch of transcripts, audio files and Camtasia presentations that I'm bundling together. Whether you're new to podcasting or have been doing it for a while (podcasting that is), you'll find little gems in this bundle of podcasting...
Why Podshow Doesn’t Suck
Wow, if someone had told me that writing a book would be hard work, I think...I still would've written the book. My deadline was extended to April 30th at my request, but I also promised my publisher that it would be my one and only extension. With 50,000 words still...
