Unlike other podcasts about podcasting that only cover the basics like tech and logistics, here you won't find the kind of podcasting tips you can get on Google. Because if high-quality audio, publishing valuable episodes every week, and "staying consistent" was the secret to a profitable top podcast, then that would mean everyone who spent over $100 on a mic and gives their best stuff away for free in every episode would be ranking in the Top 100 every week — and we both know that's not the ...

Spoiler alert… the real key to growing a podcast isn’t consistency.

Quite often, stories that don't work have more to teach us than the stories that do.

If you want a podcast that thousands of people listen to, you first have to know how to get people to care about what you have to say. The problem?

The marketing for this film highlights Judi Dench, but she's barely in it at all. As fans of hers, Melanie and I were disappointed.
