Send us feedback/questions via TextI like Ecamm. When I bought it, I was will to pay for a tool that helped me make lessons for the School of Podcasting and it did live streaming with TONS of options. I now use Tella to make screenshare videos for the School of Podcasting, and I don't really need the features in Ecamm so I'm CONSIDERING moving to Evmux. The problem is I didn't practice enough so this episode is a bit rough at times as I run into areas where I thought I knew what I was doing, but didn't. Pardon me please. I will practice much more before next week.

Send us feedback/questions via TextToday we got a question from Kenny from the CuzWilson Show (not a typo). "I'm Kenny Wilson and my new podcast is The Cuz Wilson Show and I talk about people, places, and things named Wilson. I created a YouTube show to supplement the podcast with topic visuals and showcase personalized merch with Wilson in the graphics to support non-profits named Wilson. My concern is about AI Potslop because I hate it like you guys do, however I love Notebook LM. My YouTube show is half my real recorded text invoice and half Notebook LM hosted explainers with static images but no videos or AI talking heads. I record my real voice for the intro, tease the topic of the day, then I describe a Wilson thing or place and then I show the explainer and then I discuss the explainer after that. I do a transition and then I repeat the format for the next topic. It helps me to have visuals to describe the things I talk about, but I don't want to turn off those who also hate Potslop like I do or reduce my credibility. I categorize my cautious use of AI as Potslop-lite, therefore I like your definition of what makes Potslop so I can avoid the irritation it causes. I know you say it's your podcast and you can do what you want, but I highly respect your opinions from all your help over the last two years of being a member of the school of podcasting and listening to your show. Thanks guys!"Today we attempt to answer that question.

If you want your work to live beyond one platform’s rules, you need an RSS feed and reliable podcast hosting.

From backups to hosting choices to owning your distribution, we talk about what actually keeps your catalog safe.Then we tackle the clip dilemma: spending more time making TikTok, Reels, and Shorts than producing the main show. We break down why many clips fail out of context, how “views” can be misleading, and how to use AI tools responsibly without letting them erase your voice.

Send us feedback/questions via TextIn this episode of Ask the Podcast Coach, Dave and Jim dive deep into one of the least sexy—but most critical—parts of podcasting: how you store, sync, and back up your files without losing your mind (or your episodes). They talk through practical strategies for using local drives and cloud services like Dropbox, iCloud, iDrive, Backblaze, and more; the crucial difference between sync and backup; and how to design a file workflow that actually fits how you podcast. Along the way, they veer into tech nostalgia (AOL, Windows Vista, DVDs), debate whether podcasting is “at the beginning of the end,” and tackle tricky topics like bad interviews, ad-heavy networks, and why not every conversation—or phone call—needs to be a podcast.Sponsors:PodcastBranding.co - They see you before they hear youBasedonastruestorypodcast.com - Comparing Hollywood with History?Video Version (unedited)Mentioned In This EpisodeSchool of Podcastinghttps://www.schoolofpodcasting.com/joinPodpagehttp://www.trypodpage.comHome Gadget Geekshttp://www.theaverageguy.tvPodcast Hot SeatiDriveDropboxFeatured Supporter: Jodi KrangleCheck out her show: Audio Branding the Hidden Gem of Marketing Leave Your QuestionGo to askthepodcastcoach.com/voicemail and leave your message to be answered on the next show.
