Trust The ProcessOh, yeah, I was gonna tell you about my process. Here's what I did: I decided that I didn't have enough time for a long-form podcast. Short-form -- the rough equivalent of a daily two minute radio feature -- was something I COULD do. So, I came up with the idea of ...

Why NotIt's too easy to discourage yourself from podcasting. I know; I've been there. I AM there. Here are the arguments: 1) Too many shows out there. I'll get lost. 2) No time, especially for something that won't pay. 3) Don't have the equipment, can't afford it. Here ...

Sound AdviceThe other day, I started to listen to a podcast to which I'd been looking forward. I like the show, like the host, like the guest. I made it 30 seconds in and gave up. Why? Simple. The sound quality was so bad, it hurt. The moment the intro was over and the ...
