SHED SESSION - Everything I Know About Starting a Podcast
Manage episode 421664636 series 1132532
This is a special Shed Session episode, normally published exclusively for Mountain & Prairie Patreon supporters. In it, I answer the most common question I receive, which is some variation of "How do I start a podcast?"
-
In this episode I answer that question in excruciating detail, laying out everything I know about it, based on my own bumbling, meandering, eight-year journey through Podcastlandia.
-
I hope this episode will provide a little bit of actionable guidance that will allow you to put your own unique ideas into the world.
-
To listen to all past, present, and future Patreon-exclusive episodes, you can sign up at www.mountainandprairie.com/patreon. Memberships start at as little as $2 per month.
