Yesterday, https://twitter.com/romanmars/status/1386751162183913475?s=20 (Roman Mars announced the sale of 99% Invisible to SiriusXM) and https://jayacunzo.com/blog/3-clips-podcast-acquired-by-castos (Jay Acunzo sold his podcast about podcasting, 3 Clips, to Castos). I’ve dutifully added those moves to the https://airtable.com/shrFON24D9ZHIMqw5 (Who Owns Who In Podcasting? Airtable) that http://twitter.com/annecbaird (Anne Baird) created to keep track of…well, who owns who in podcasting, as it’s becoming quite the tangled skein!  If someone were to come knocking on your door with an offer to buy your podcast, should you sell it? My answer is an enthusiastic but qualified YES!  Anytime this question comes up, I’m reminded of the wise words of my friend and podcaster https://www.linkedin.com/in/daveslusher/ (Dave Slusher) of https://evilgeniuschronicles.org/ (The Evil Genius Chronicles):  There's no such thing as selling out. Only the possibility of selling too cheaply. Both Jay and Roman will continue to be very much in charge of their podcasts, using their voices and creative vision. This is the kind of deal I think most podcasters would be foolish not to at least consider, and I can sum up why in three points: Cash! - Anyone selling their podcast needs cash. Roman’s deal was healthy enough to allow him tohttps://medium.com/prxofficial/a-note-of-thanks-to-roman-mars-and-99-invisible-8a8a85a798fc ( donate $1 million dollars to PRX over the next four years). So he’s probably not worried about paying his mortgage for at least that time. Focus! - But because of the cash, you can afford to let other people do the tasks necessary to keep your show running that you’d really rather not focus on so you can double-down on the aspects of making the show that you love.  Future! - It’s common for the seller to agree to continue performing duties for a set number of months or years. Knowing that your departure is already baked in can help you better understand your accomplishments thus far and allow you to start having serious thoughts about your next project. But it’s not all roses. Remember, when you sell your show, however you sell your show, you’re no longer the sole decision-maker. When you sell your show and stay in the hosting seat, you get a boss or partner in return, and they’d like to be clued in on things. And have more than a little input, if only to protect their investment. ----- A written-to-be-read article and a full transcript of the audio of this episode can be found at https://podcastpontifications.com/episode/the-art-of-selling-and-keeping-your-podcast (https://podcastpontifications.com/episode/the-art-of-selling-and-keeping-your-podcast) https://twitter.com/evoterra (Follow @EvoTerra on Twitter) for more podcasting insights as they come. https://buymeacoffee.com/evoterra (Buy him a virtual coffee) to show your support at BuyMeACoffee.com/evoterra And if you need a professional in your podcasting corner, please visithttps://podcastlaunch.pro/ ( Simpler.Media) to see how Simpler Media Productions can help you reach your business objectives with podcasting.

Improving Your Podcast's Acquired Taste [S3E6]

“There is no such thing as selling out; only the chance of selling out top cheaply.” That's a quote I first heard from Dave Slusher, one of the original OG podcasters with the Evil Genius Chronicles (https://evilgeniuschronicles.org/).  Acquisitions and mergers have been a part of podcasting since nearly the beginning. In recent years, with an ever-increasing portion of ad spend allocated to podcasts and the continued increase in podcasting listenership, the pace has accelerated. It’s not out of the question that you might be approached with a money-bag-holder in the near future.  Historically, podcast networks have been the entity responsible for most acquisitions, and it’s generally considered a Good Thing to at least be approached by a network. And if they’re offering to pay; even better! I think we’ll see more ad rep firms start their own networks as they start commissioning and acquiring shows that make their business model work better by appeasing the needs of their customers -- the advertisers with money to spend. If they can build an owned-network of 10 different podcasts that get 1000 downloads a month, that's 10,000 downloads. Run multiple ad placements and that’s starting to approach viability. Brands might also be interested in acquiring existing podcasts, especially if there’s a hyper-focused podcast that’s a perfect match to the niche the brand occupies. While the price tag to make a big-budget branded podcast is out of the cards for most small brands, they might find benefit owning a stake of an existing, popular podcast rather than trying to build something completely original on their own from scratch.  Even a show that’s been “dead” for years might be attractive. I once joined and rebooted a show that hadn’t released an episode in six years but was still seeing 2,000 - 3,000 downloads of old episodes each month. Clearly, there was an audience hungry for the content! Luckily the owner continued to pay his hosting bill each month, else we’d have missed the opportunity. There are now well over 1 million podcasts, and even though podcasting titles aren’t like domain names (there can be more than one), having a unique title is key to discovery. Would you consider a name-change to your show, knowing that your existing subscribers wouldn’t be impacted at all, if you were paid to give up your prior name? Talent is another scarcity, and one that doesn’t scale. What do you do if someone wants to acquire you? What do you do if the offer is extended to a valued member of your team?  .And then there’s the nuclear option, where someone wants to buy your show… and not you. What sort of price tag would it take for you to hand over everything about your podcast to someone else and never look back? While some may actively seek out acquisition, others will be hit with a request out of the blue. Regardless, both of these paths start from the same place: Getting your ducks in a row. Ownership is the big question, so have an honest conversation with all of the stakeholders of your show so everyone understands who owns what. But the bigger question is this: What’s it worth? If someone approaches you out of the blue, you’re in a great position of leverage, so don't jump at the offer. If you don't need it (or want it), then you don't need it (or want it).  Because like Dave says, there's no such thing as selling out; only the possibility of selling too cheaply.  ----- Read the full article and share with a friend: https://podcastpontifications.com/episode/improving-your-podcasts-acquired-taste (https://podcastpontifications.com/episode/improving-your-podcasts-acquired-taste) Podcast Pontifications is published by Evo Terra four times a week and is designed to make podcasting better, not just easier.

Today we have some lessons from fast food that apply to podcasting, and I talk about zagging when everyone is zigging, Bernie's Greatest Hits 1:58 My cat is pretty popular on this show as he chimes in all the time. When I went to Pittsburgh last week apparently he got a record deal. He's releasing "Bernie sings the hits" Someone Is Doing a Show Like Mine - So I Didn't Start my Show 3:07 One of the most frustrating parts of being a consultant is seeing someone who has the right stuff to create a podcast, but they are more skilled at finding reasons not to press record than actually pressing record. Today I have two points I want to make Someone will come to me and say, “I want to do a podcast about ______” but someone is already doing a show like that. The first thing I say is to go to iTunes and see when their last episode was published. Many times the person has already hung up their microphone. But what if they haven’t? Let’s look at McDonald’s. Here are some interesting facts (well facts according to Wikipedia). McDonald’s was not the first hamburger chain. A&W was first in 1919 followed by White Castle in 1921. McDonald’s didn’t come about until 1940. Fun facts: McDonald’s started as a barbecue joint. They found that hamburgers were more profitable. So they started in one direction, and then followed what their audience wanted. I always say your podcast is a recipe not a statue. You can change it any time you want. White Castle developed the supply chain and automation to have a nationwide food chain way before McDonald’s did. But when McDonald’s did, they didn’t recreate the wheel. They looked at what others were doing, and borrowed the best, and tweaked the rest. Now when burger king came along in 1953 did they say, “I would open a restaurant but someone else is doing “Assembly line” hamburgers? No. They didn’t recreate the wheel, and they tweaked it (adding flame broiling and “have it your way” at Burger King). What is the one thing that is common here? Well in the US apparently we can’t get enough of hamburgers. If you throw some meat on a bun and squirt some ketchup on it, we will eat it. In America I think if you put enough ketchup on anything we will eat it. They saw their competition and looked at ways to innovate. Breakfast was introduced. Bigger hamburgers like the Big Mac were introduced in 1967. Later the innovation of the drive through window. So if someone is doing a show like yours, WHO CARES! If you think it will be fun, if you think people will enjoy it, DO IT. The WORST thing you can do for yourself in podcasting is COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS. Podcasting is like golf, while there is competition, you are really only competing against yourself. Now to my second point, and this builds on innovation. Todd Cochrane recently launched a new Podcast Legends show and it is interviewing podcast pioneers (people from 2004 - sorry Chris Hardwick is not a Pioneer) and one of the things I forgot about (I started in 2005) was the WHACKY shows that just made you go WHOA!?! Yeast Radio was by Madge Weinstein and was one of the most subscribed to podcast in 2005. Madge would say outrageous things about the government, about her hygiene (she was often bloated), and in general said things often people only think. She was an angry, jewish, fat, Lesbian. There was one other small twist. Madge was a dude (Richard Bluestein ). One other thing, if you could handle the language, Madge was pretty darn funny. Madge was the queen of tuning in because you didn’t know what to expect. The really cool thing was there was NO WAY that this would EVER be on radio or TV. It’s kind of what made podcasting special, unique, and intimate. Madge is still going strong at yeastradio.com One person did a show called the daily download where he recorded his thoughts while using the bathroom... Dave Slusher from the Evil Genius Chronicles mentioned how one podcaster had a show called Podcat where he would play clips of other shows intermingled with clips of his cat. Why did people do this? Because THEY COULD. There was no radio, no FCC, no program directors, and it was YOURS. If people didn’t like it, WHO CARES. Podcasting was much more of an art form. People grabbed their stick microphone and press record, because they had something to say, and they could be creative. I think we’ve gone too far from those days. Now we over-think podcasting as if our lives depended on it. We are all preparing as if this is going to be a full time job some day because it might be. That is true. Maybe We Should Zag? I was listening to the Start Up Podcast where they have a team of 18 people per podcast (roughly), and when they launch a show it sounds painful. It sounds like there so up tight about it. I guess they should be as they are doing this as a business. But let's look at women singers. Back in the day Madonna stood out for singing in her underwear. No EVERYBODY sings in their underwear. So now there is  someone sings with a bit more passion, keeps her clothes on, and has oodles of talent that lead to her selling 31 million records (Adele). She stands out because she's not doing what everybody else is doing. Maybe, just maybe it's time to stop doing a "This week in," or "On Fire", or "Three guys one brain" shows. Maybe, just maybe we should all spend that extra time figuring  out if there is something we can do that might make us stand out (realizing that there is no way to do something 100% original) Fun Fact: According to a CNBC story 60% of restaurants fail in their first year. This is a company that is serving FOOD. That is something every single person on the planet NEEDS (not wants). Now we have podcasting that only roughly 30% of the planet even knows we exist, and people think they are going to make six figures talking about their love of Barbarella and other fun movies. I hate to be skeptical, but that might be a tough road. This is what is bothering me. Just because you can’t make a living with your podcast shouldn’t stop you from starting it. If you would have fun with it, then start it and have fun. When you look at the people making big bucks in podcasting, and you stress our about it you take the fun out of, well, FUN. That my friends is a crime My Favorite Podcast Is (2016 Version) 22:52 It's that time where I ask you to answer a very hard question. What is your favorite podcast? You can only pick ONE (no ties). Then (more importantly) WHY IS IT YOUR FAVORITE? You can CLICK HERE, and let me know (and be included in the last episode of the year, and in the 2016 version of the book). Podcast Glossary "B" 26:25 Bit Depth, Sample Rate, Export or Encoding Rate I want to use the analogy of a camera here. Let's say you are taking pictures at a Nascar Race, and there is a wreck. One person has a camera that takes 10 pictures per second, and the other person takes 5 pictures per second. Who has the better representation of the wreck? The sample rate is how many times your recording device (computer or portable recorder) "takes a picture" of your voice. The standard is 44.1 which means it takes a picture 44,000 times per second. Can you go higher? Sure, but there is a minor problem. Most everything is created at 44.1, and when you mix with other sample rates, those will need to be re-sampled. Not the end of the world, but in the end remember most people are going to listen to this in their car or ear buds. The details you gain are not really worth the hassle (in my opinion). So what is Bit Depth? If we stick with the analogy of the camera, the Sample Rate is how many times per second the recording device "takes a picture" of your voice, the Bit Depth is the megapixels on the camera. Most people record in 16 bit. Can you record in 24? Sure. Is it needed? Not in my opinion, but if you ask engineers who do music they will disagree.  In photography bit rate it is how many colors are used to make up a picture, so more bits would be a better reproduction of your audio (but again, we are getting into overkill). You want to record in a "lossless" format. Lossless means the sound you record is what you hear back. It does not lose any quality. That's the good news. The bad news is these files are HUGE. So when you record you want to record in WAV on a PC or AAC on a Mac. This keeps the best quality. But you don't want to force your audience to use these big giant files that destroy data plans. So we encode them as MP3 files which are much smaller and still sound good. So I want to use the analogy of painting a house now to explain encoding. The sample rate is how much pain it on your brush. The encoding rate is how fast you move the brush across the house. If you go too fast no paint gets on the house. If you go to slow, you get too much paint, and it may run. There are three formats that are used frequently. 128 Kbps Stereo. This is sometimes referred to as "CD" quality. That is debatable, but it is the highest acceptable rate (IMHO). Meaning anything above this is too much, and you are just wasting storage space, bandwidth, and the difference in audio is almost unnoticeable. (So anything above 128 is too much paint on the brush) 64 Kbps mono. This file is half the size of the 128 kbps but has no stereo separation (which if your show is mainly talk, is not a big deal). 96 kbps mono. This is used for people who feel the extra bits make the files sound better. You could also say that 64 mono / 128 stereo "Cover with one coat" of paint. Anything below 64 (32 kbps ) you don't have enough paint on the brush (and you get hiss, and bad audio).

I don't actually feel that. I feel that if I had one of those book scanners or if there was a program, if Google had a book buy-back program where I could trade them every paper copy I have for a digital copy, I would do that in a heartbeat with almost every book in this house. I would love that. That would be the greatest thing that ever happened to me.    News“Amazon's New Kindle Trade-In Program Includes a $20 Credit Toward a New Kindle” by Nate Hoffelder at The Digital Reader - January 7, 2016Details of Kindle Trade In program at Amazon.com“Nook holiday sales plunge 25% to $41M as Barnes & Noble falls further behind Amazon Kindle” by Todd Bishop at GeekWire - January 7, 2016 “Amazon.com, Inc.'s Best-Selling Product in 2015” by Steve Symington at the Motley Fool - January 4, 2016 Psychotherapeutic Reiki: A Holistic Body-Mind Approach to Psychotherapy by Richard R.

Sometimes, despite being entrenched in various attempts further and promote the medium to the layman, I really regret the relative youth and instant accessibility of podcasting.  There just isn't the history or massive, undiscovered, forgotten areas to explore the way there is with something as all-encompassing as music.  Case in point, last night I had drinks with two of the big innovators in podcasting, and .  They are terribly nice, accessible guys who post a Twitter that they're coming into town, and instantly 30 people show up at a bar to chat and toss back a few (everyone else looked at us like we were a traveling leper colony).  While we were there, we discussed all of the various things we've done over the years and where you can go to download them.  Suddenly, it dawned on me:  This digital age isn't all it's cracked up to be sometimes.  I mean, I'm never going to have the joy of trawling through garage sale boxes looking for old mono pressings of (to say nothing of the infamous "Barber Cover" depicting CC Chapman covered in hair taking scissors to a Barbie Doll's golden locks).  I'll not be making a pilgrimage to Binghampton, New York, interviewing convenience store clerks and school teachers, looking for that minute piece of previously-uncovered trivia that will allow me to completely change my approach to podcasting and hopefully write the definitive Encyclopedia of some day.  There will never be a six-disc official anthology release of all of those old alternate takes of episodes that I've had on a scratchy Belgian bootleg vinyl since '79.  My grandchildren will never stand in line to pay $299 for the "Ultimate Boxed Set" of 256-bit remasters of because Dave Slusher's cough at 14:58 of Episode #72 "has a much richer tonal quality" than it does on the old 128-bit versions I grew up with.  Our sphere is pretty much 100% out there. Our heroes are a bit less-legendary; our history, a bit shorter; our genre-altering revelations, a bit fewer and further between -- and it's probably going to stay that way.  This is probably why I think my guest on this episode is totally cool. When talking to musicians around Indianapolis, one hears a lot of stories -- you might even say legends -- about Jethro Easyfields.  He's been a staple of the local scene for decades, and when he's not actively playing around town, he can invariably be found in New Orleans, Phoenix, or elsewhere, looking to expand his own musical vocabulary and bring that experience back and add it to the collected pool of talent here in his home state.   That vocabulary, by the way, now easily slips back and forth between rockabilly, blues, folk, rock, country, Americana and several other genres.  His latest CD, Elixir, is a combination of new tunes and old favorites performed in his living room by an assortment of his "collected" friends (called "The Arrowheads").  This isn't a basement tape from a bunch of DIY kids, though (and, no, I have nothing against that scene; I've even featured it on this show more than once).  These are quality session and live players you know from top acts around town and elsewhere, getting back to the basics, but still keeping it professional.  's production work is masterfully done, but at the same time intentionally unalloyed and organic, with most songs being done in just a couple of takes.  As such, Elixir showcases Easyfield's natural abilities, energy, and diversity in both performance and songwriting -- a fitting representation of an artists who once made his living playing street corners for change.   Links referenced in the show:                Jethro Easyfields can be found here:  | | | .    Much of his music, including the Po Boy album and his Retrospective are available on the excellent MP3 Archive. He worked and played at the (before it became a cookie-cutter national restaurant chain) His latest CD, Elixir, is available at shows or the usual suspects (, in Indy; in Ft. Wayne).  You can read a reivew of it , and can watch a video of the CD release party we referenced during the show .  He has been known to play with , , and among others.   He has previously appeared on .  For the past five years, he's been the host of at .  Indy In-Tune is proud to sponsor the at .  Final round of action is Friday, September 25th and features Dead Man's Grill, Outer Sanctum, Compass Rose, Smoke Ring, Jai Baker, Shadow Box, One-Eyed Dog, among others.
