SO YOU WANT TO START A PODCAST: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Podcasting is a much less crowded and competitive space than blogging, making now the perfect time to get started. As of January 2021, there are just over 1.75 million podcasts, but over 600 million blogs! So you want to start a podcast? For media organizations, launching a successful podcast often takes more than two witty hosts, a microphone, and an iTunes feed. Unless an outlet already has the expertise and resources, creating great audio journalism can be daunting.
