What is the best podcasting microphone? What is the best editing software? What is the best podcast hosting provider? The googling has got to stop! The is no “best” in podcasting. But I’ve got recommendations for you based on 12 years of podcasting.

“I keep up on resources out there. And, yes, I read about equipment and software that I’m not using and wonder, “Hmm, should I try that?” Even I get the fear of missing out! But it’s got to stop!”

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• My number 1 recommendation for a starter mic
• My recommendations for recording and editing software
• My favorite podcast hosting provider
• Where I find podcast guests and other podcasts for me to be a guest
• Where I track my podcast rank
• Who created my podcast logo and cover art and who does some of my videograms
• Where you can create your own cover art, audiograms, and videograms
• Why I’ve started doing Instagram Lives
