Ever dreamt of hosting your own podcast? How about a live podcast show in the Metaverse? Join us as Tom Rossi, co-founder of the innovative podcast platform Buzzsprout, comes to experience the Killer Bee Studios Metaverse podcast firsthand. This could be a whole new approach for future podcasters. Tom shares his journey from coding in the mid-90s to becoming a key player in the podcasting world and building an easy-to-use platform serving churches, volunteers, and podcasters.
Let's face it, podcasting is hard work but, oh, so rewarding! We unpack the realities of this world, from the futility of chasing downloads as a success metric to the power of engaging conversations that extend beyond any numerical value. Hear about a friend who discovered the unique value a podcast can bring, even if it garners no downloads, as she interviews authors and cultivates invaluable discussions. We also dove into the potential of a podcast as an expert platform to attract clients and the power the smartphone wields in making content globally accessible in just a few hours.
The podcasting world is complex, flooded with opportunities and challenges. We sift through this landscape, discussing the emergence of platforms like Anchor and how it has sparked debates on the number of existing podcasts. We also discussed the open system of podcasting versus the closed system of YouTube and how the pandemic has influenced the industry. Tom offers invaluable advice for aspiring podcasters, emphasizing the importance of content over numbers. He assures us that even a podcast with low download counts can be a success if it resonates with the right person. So, brace yourself for a captivating discussion on podcasting's ins and outs!
