from Ask the Podcast Coach Hosted by Dave Jackson, Jim Collison

Send us feedback/questions via Text Dave and Jim share their thoughts and experiences with streaming platforms like Streamyard, Ecamm, EVMux, and OBS—breaking down the pros, cons, and learning curves for podcasters of all skill levels. The hosts dive into some great listener questions, from strategies for discovering the right audience for niche content, to tackling podcast burnout and knowing when—or if—it’s time to take a break. They get real about what it takes to pay a co-host for a daily show, discuss the ups and downs of local podcast audiences, and offer true-to-life advice for podcasters feeling nervous to start recording.
