In this episode, I had a chat with the wonderful Evo Terra!
Evo is the host of the Podcast Pontifications podcast, a podcast about... podcast pontifications. In this show, he talks about the things that you should be thinking about when starting your own show or talking about the podcast industry in general.
With 16 years in the podcast industry and his first ever show in 2004, Evo is a powerhouse when it comes to podcasting, as host of show number 40 from the very beginning.
In this chat, we talked about:
- His origin story, how he shared his first show with truck drivers who burned podcast CDs for long distance driving
- Building up Podiobooks to launch the careers of many different authors (750 books!)
- Thoughts on privacy and why he doesn't mind compromising some of it in order to get the better experience online.
- I played a game with him, a hypothetical situation where we tried to grow the Asia podcast market!
Anyway. Plenty of fun, laughter and amazing insight from him. Enjoy my chat with Evo Terra of Podcast Pontifications!
