Remote recording for interviews and the like has always been a bit tricky and the platforms that provide recording of this type are always trying to improve.

2022 brings us a lot of contenders for the title of "best remote recording platform."

This episode is a handful of recordings of me and my right-hand audio-man, Aaron as we test out the top 11 platforms. You're going to hear about...

• Boomcaster
• Cast
• Cleanfeed
• Clearcast
• Iris
• Remotely
• Riverside
• Squadcast
• Welder
• Zencastr
• Zoom

And we also tried Ringr, which has been around for some time but we got so frustrated trying to get it to work that we dropped the attempt. It could have been a bad day (for both of us?) but we made the call not to move forward with that portion of the recording and moved on.

I have LONG wanted a Podcast Newsletter that provides content for me — an INDEPENDENT PODCASTER.

I mean, it's OK to have industry news about who moved from what bigwig company to another biggerwig company in a higher profile industry-speak position... no problem there.

But it's not relevant to me at all.

So I've created an Indie Podcast Newsletter FOR Indie Podcasters, BY an Indie Podcaster. Abraham Lincoln would have said something like that if he were a podcaster.

I'm calling it "Podawan" (hat tip to the Star Wars universe).

I LOVE the idea of Podawan Learner... and since we are all bootstrapping, do it yourself kind of folks, we can be Podawans.

Each episode or installment of the Podawan newsletter will include...

An Education section that highlights stuff you need to learn or do better

A Success Stories section that tells of Indie podcasters who have actually done it.

An Industry News section where I frame happenings in ways that matter to you.

And an Editorial section... where I write an opinion piece based on issues within the podcast industry (and shock... it will be RELEVANT to Indie podcasters).

Finally... I'll be taking LETTERS TO THE EDITOR... you can write your input about my opinions, industry stuff, something else. I don't care what it is. Send it to me.

I hope you'll subscribe. It's going to be a fun and RELEVANT ride.

Oh yeah... you can also find some fun, Podawan swag here.

That’s when the very first episode of his show (a podcast about podcasting) “The Audacity to Podcast.” You can hear it here.

Daniel has already been podcasting for about three years when I first came across his content and I can’t express the number of ways he’s helped me personally, both through his content and via personal email interactions we’ve had together.

He’s a regular guy who is as genuine in real life as he seems on his show.

THIS episode featuring Daniel J. Lewis features the story of how Daniel has used his podcast as a launching pad for SERVICES-based businesses - from website development to plugin development, to podcast consulting, Daniel has tried his hand at a wide variety of things — with varying levels of success. On this episode he shares...

▷ His path into podcasting from a job he loved

▷ How he built authority in a niche that was new to him

▷ Choosing from the wide variety of income models

▷ The power of perseverance in finding what fits you

I hope you take the time to listen. Daniel doesn’t hold back and if you apply what he shares, you’ll move WAY forward in your attempts to monetize your show.
