READY TO LAUNCH YOUR OWN PODCAST?
Podcasts have been a huge part of my life for well over a decade– first as a listener, then as a producer, and finally as the host of my own shows. My only regret is that I didn't start sooner. The Podcaster Playbook is my way of helping you get started and keep going.
You might also know me from my YouTube Channel, where I like to share my enthusiasm for anything and everything related to audio/video production.
I was also a high school Digital Media teacher for 11 years where I was able to work with thousands of students and see how empowering these tools can really be–and yes, many of them started their own podcasts as well!

IS THIS REALLY GOING TO WORK?
Setting a goal for yourself, committing to it, and putting in the time and effort to bring it to life can feel daunting. But when it comes to podcasting, anyone can create a successful show. Make that dream a reality with The Podcaster Playbook, the step by step system to guide you through the entire process.
If you follow the steps and put in the work, you will launch your podcast. Simple as that.
IF ANY OF THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU, THEN THIS COURSE WAS MADE FOR YOU!
- You've got an idea for a podcast, but you need help putting it together. Every day that passes is one more chance to get your show off the ground. You've got a great idea, now it's time to give it life!
- You're willing to put in the time to create not only one episode, but a sustainable show. This course is designed to be as simple as possible, but you still need to be willing to put in the work to move through each section and watch your show come to life.
- You have something that you can't stop talking about. Are your friends and family tired of hearing you go on and on about something? Well guess what? Your podcast audience is out there and they want to hear more about it!
- You love creative problem solving. Even with a great idea and a solid roadmap to get there, you'll still need to find innovative solutions to unique challenges as you develop your show.
- You love podcasts! It's one thing to make a podcast, but knowing what it's like to be a podcast fan who's experienced firsthand the impact that a great show can have on your life is not only an awesome thing, it'll make you a better and more relatable podcaster.
IF ANY OF THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU, THEN THIS COURSE IS NOT A GOOD FIT:
- Your main focus is getting as many downloads and podcast subscribers as possible. It takes time to build an audience and find your footing, and beyond that, podcasting can be rewarding in ways that have nothing to do with analytics.
- Your main interest is monetization. While it's definitely possible to earn money from your show at some point, this course focuses in the creative production process.
- You want to create harmful, shocking, or negative content. Nope. Just nope, this is not your course and I'm not your guy.
- You're not committed to your goal. Life happens, and that's ok. But this course is for someone who's ready to dive in and make their podcast a priority. There are always excuses, but we're not here to make more excuses.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What equipment do I need?
If you're viewing this page, you have everything you need. The Podcaster Playbook covers some of the basics when it comes to equipment (and includes a wish list if you want to invest in some new gear), but you'll be able to produce and distribute your show even if all you've got is a phone.

Should I take both courses at the same time?
This course, The Podcaster Playbook focuses entirely on production and works on the assumption that you've already got an idea/concept that you want to turn into a podcast.
The Podcaster Ideabook is just that: all about ideas! It doesn't focus on productional at all, and instead helps you turn your idea into a sustainable concept for a podcast.
Each course serves a different purpose, so not everyone needs both. It's entirely up to you!

Don't Know What Your Podcast Should Be About?
Every podcasting journey is unique, but it all starts with an idea. After following The Podcaster Ideabook you'll not only have an idea that you're excited about, you'll even have your first run of episodes planned out and ready for production.
