For Kevin, It All Started On The Subway

Kevin Chemidlin is a podcaster and podcast coach. His first podcast, Philly Who?, was launched in 2018 as a side hustle while he was a corporate software developer. Just months after launching the show, Kevin decided to leave his 9-to-5 and go all-in on the podcast. Within 18 months, Philly Who? surpassed 100,000 downloads and more than $140k in monetized revenue. In 2020, Kevin began helping other podcasters grow and monetize their shows as well. He launched Grow The Show, a podcast, and the Grow The Show Accelerator, an intensive podcast accelerator program. In just 2 years, the Grow The Show Podcast has amassed an audience of 30,000, and the Grow The Show Accelerator has served over 350 podcasters, generating multi-7 figures in revenue. Kevin's mission now is to help as many independent podcasters turn their shows into a profitable business as he possibly can.
