The Podcast Gym: Recent Episodes
Carl Munson
This group is a new home for my podcasting training and support service as well as a showcase, surgery and community for all podcasters.
It will give special attention to those creators who are engaged in transformational projects, seeking to develop their world or themselves, in a positive way.

What makes a great podcaster or broadcaster?
Here, I share a basic distinction that might help answer this question; that might also help you better engage and impact your audience.
That time I asked BBC Radio 1's Dev Griffin about mic and headphone 'technique', when he came to our studio!
Not content with pressure of coming up with regular content?
I had no idea that this was such an issue for people as potential and provisional podcasters, but I am sure I can help (-:
Karen's solution is excellent, which is shared in this 3-minute recording, on a bus!

Let's face it, online podcasting guides and courses are usually BORING!
Loads of text, some of it useful - if you can be bothered or brave enough to try it. And so, so subjective. And so often geeky and nerdy too.
To me, the best way to learn, is to get cracking and try it, rather than read about it for hours and invest in a load of gear, based on someone else's preferences, who may have entirely different needs and tastes to you.
Sure, research for hours, even years, if you want to fly planes or operate on brains, but this is podcasting and the only life at risk is yours - wasted reading endless blogs and guides, when you could be having fun, actually learning through experience.
Basically, it's easy be in that 'all the gear, but no idea' situation, as in no tried and tested ideas of your own, and a load of shiny kit better suited to someone else's requirements and affiliate programme.
Five paragraphs in and I'm falling in to that same wordy trap!
So let me commend to you my 'podcast gym', where the emphasis is on practice, support, community and ultimately a showcase for your product and progress.
Join my ongoing programme, and I'll get you podcasting immediately and thereafter support you to get into a regular rhythm, giving you the help you need - when you need it - turning your ideas into reality, in the most efficient, fun and fulfilling way.
Book a call with me, let's talk it through, let's get you podcasting (-:

From a live recording on GetVokl, here's The Podfather Carl Munson's introduction to the 'Four Building Blocks of Podcasting' ahead of his interview and coaching session with Gav Hughes and his 'Go Ed Gav' series.
Hear the whole conversation later in this podcast collection...
The 'Podfather' Carl Munson talks here about how BORING most teaching materials are about podcasting. Recalling his difficult days trying to find out how Grandmaster Flash worked his magic, Carl thinks it's never been easier to get started and suggests doing just that, rather than reading endless articles and blogs.
