Show 028 Quick-Guide

Helen Saltzman is in the house!
We dive right into the discussion about women in broadcasting fueled by her cool podcast Sound Women.
Helen’s workflow for Sound Women.
Serial breaks records! Woah.
What does it really take monetarily to run a highly produced top notch podcast.
What’s the team behind producing a podcast.
What are the ethics of Serial? And the ethics of listeners? What’s the line between entertainment vs information?
What are OUR ethical responsibilities to our audience? They look up to us. We have chosen to take the seat of the expert.
Helen shares a crazy piece of feedback she got for the Answer Me This Podcast.
WE are, whether we want to or not, guiding the narrative of our culture via our podcast.
The discoverability problem. Helen and Elsie try to hash it out.
Niche podcast directories and how they (should) serve the community.
We need to make sure that these directories are able to provide relevant results that are not based on iTunes ratings and reviews.
We get the behind the scenes of Radiotopia AND how Helen will be podcasting full time!
Radiotopia is cultivating new voices in audio, something no one else is doing right now.
Helen reveals exactly how she is now part of the Radiotopia team getting paid to produce her new podcast FULL TIME! Gah!
Why Elsie choose to fund the Kickstarter Campaign for Radiotopia - and it’s because of something that Alex Blumberg and Gimlet Media are NOT doing.
How has the podcasting scene changed in the past few years and where it’s headed.

FEEDBACK REQUEST!
Do you feel a responsibility to your listeners? Is there a boundary as to how much?
Do you have an idea of solving this ‘possible’ discoverability problem OUTSIDE of iTunes algorithms?

If you're looking for *quick* and succinct tips on how to podcast, grow your audience, and monetize your show this is NOT the show for you. Will you get all that from this show? Absolutely! And a lot more, but not in way you expect. THERE IS A LOT OF CHIT CHAT AND NOT GETTING TO THE POINT. This show is a personality driven show hosted by powerhouses and podcasting industry experts Jessica Kupferman and Elsie Escobar (supported by their producer John.) They will give you insightful, wise, expert advice about all aspects about the podcasting industry, from advertising and sponsorships, to the latest and greatest microphones and workflows, to how the podcasting industry is failing and thriving. You will also get the reality of what it takes to podcast as working from home women and moms running their own businesses and supporting a vibrant community of women podcasters of over 12k members. If you don't like chit chat, banter and feeling like you're hanging out with Elsie and Jess at their kitchen table (or eavesdropping on them) while they drop some brilliant wisdom about podcasting (and possibly 800 other subjects), go ahead and save yourself some time and move along now.
