Ash and Kane acknowledge and talk about all of the stupid shit in the podcast industry. From their own top 3 to guest suggestions, they reveal all the rubbish you need to know about; including some of the downsides to a decentralised platform and the spam emails selling you solutions that just don’t work.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Podcast apps with awful user interface
Tacky, useless podcast products, such as Blue Yeti mic
Generic booking emails from guest bookers, this is poor value and often won’t provide close to suitable guests for your podcast
LinkedIn promoters, they use download farms and this can actually harm your podcast in the long run if used
Lack of download data across platforms, and access to good analytics can be poor but the platform Podbean is doing good things
Lack of standardisation and decentralisation in podcasting means you can be more creative as a creator and make more money. So although there are these downsides that is a big plus point!

BEST MOMENTS
“ If Spotify insists on being in the space, I wish there was. a tab when you first open Spotify that was podcasts and music”
“They’re just download farms”
“Downloads, what device they’re on, what country they’re in, that’s pretty much all you can get”
