There are a variety of podcast platforms available for shows to be found on and podcasters to submit to, but not all are created equal. They are all have certain features and quirks, Todd and Mike get into some pros and cons of the major directories currently available and relevant. Don't miss some virtual events coming up real soon, including International Podcast Day, we're platinum sponsors! Live Facebook Recording. Thanks for joining us this episode of Podcast Insider. Looking to be a guest on the show? Let us know. Recorded live from two well-separated and socially distant podcast studios in northern and southern Michigan; here’s Podcast Insider. News: Spotify is testing listener polls in their app. Podcast Movement announced another keynote speaker, Mark Cuban. Zoom releasing is new soundboard designed for podcasting. Looks similar to the RODEcaster Pro. They will be available mid November. Spotify employees say they will strike if Joe Rogan’s episodes are not edited or removed. Charlotte Podcast Festival is October 5-30th, they'll have free sessions all month. Best Practice: What podcast apps do you want your podcast listed in? You can choose what apps you want your podcast to be distributed to. You don’t need to be listed in all the major players. Why would you NOT want to be in a particular app? Most of your potential listeners do not use that app, for example, a linux podcast may not need to be in Apple Podcasts although it doesn’t hurt anything. Or a podcast specifically about Apple Products, likely wouldn’t do well on Google Podcasts. The directory/app does things you don’t agree with, for example, they put ads in or around your episodes. The app does not attribute the show to you and makes it seem like they own your show. Terms of service, for example, some apps say you can’t say something bad about their company. Or you can’t talk about xx topic. You get an exclusive deal with an app/company to be only on their platform. Blubrry News: International Podcast Day is next week, September 30. Schedule: Session 1: 11am PDT - Powerful Women in Podcasting: Candy O’Terry and Laura Wiese will be joining MacKenzie. Session 2: 5pm PDT - Todd and Mike will have Adam Curry on to talk about Podcast history and Podcasting 2.0 (podcastindex.org). The Blubrry website has been updated. The homepage and our main service pages were released, look for more changes the rest of the year. Tell us what you think!

This is useful to totally control what is shown in Apple Podcasts. When contacting tech support, please do not just send a ticket that says “call me”.

It's been a long seven months here in the United States (as it has been elsewhere), and we're only two weeks away from the U.S Presidential Debates - which was recently suggested to be hosted on Joe Rogan's podcast, with Donald Trump and Joe Biden. We ask, is a presidential debate on a podcast a good idea? Don't worry we discuss more than just politics integrated into politics this episode. Such as news from Amazon Music / Audible, some moves to the Apple team, and some upcoming events. Live Facebook Recording. Thanks for joining us this episode of Podcast Insider. Looking to be a guest on the show? Let us know. Recorded live from two well-separated and socially distant podcast studios in northern and southern Michigan; here’s Podcast Insider. News: Amazon Music / Audible added podcasts in the US, UK, Germany and Japan. Jake Shapiro, CEO of Radio Public and PRX founder moves to Apple Podcasts. Kara Swisher joins the New Your Times with a podcast called Sway. Apple updates with iOS14 and iPadOS14. Some new things in Apple Podcasts. Presidential Debate on a Podcast? For four hours?! Podfest is doing a Podcast Masterclass on Sept 28 - October 2nd. Best Practice: Audio levels and tools for editing/recording For Podcast insider, we use a lot of tools. Auphonic for leveling + Blubrry Pro Production Audition, for editing and final file creation Recorded on each end with hardware recorders. Rodcaster Pro and Dennon digital audio recorder as a backup.

A release schedule can be critical for a podcast, but so are breaks every once in a while. We promise, taking time off won't kill your podcast overnight. There are a few strategies and best practices for taking some time off, whether it be unexpected or the foreseeable future. Mike and Todd discuss podcast days off among event details, webinar info and more. Facebook Live Recording. Thanks for joining us this episode of Podcast Insider. Looking to be a guest on the show? Let us know. Recorded live from two well-separated and socially distant podcast studios in northern and southern Michigan; here’s Podcast Insider. News: Podcasting 2.0, preserve podcasting. Joe Rogan moved to Texas and his first new episode featured Adam Curry. The Podcast Academy September Social is on the 17th at 5pm EDT. Not much time left to join the Podcast Academy at $50 yearly. Price is going up real soon to join. NAB Show 2021 rescheduled for October 2021 instead of spring. Former President Bill Clinton is starting a podcast. Indie Pod Con is this upcoming weekend. Todd speaks Saturday at 6:25pm EDT. “Your News Update” in Google podcasts. Best Practice: Take a day off from your podcast, it's ok... maybe? Blubrry News: Mike is doing a live PowerPress webinar next Tuesday at 4pm EDT. International Podcast Day is Sept. 30th. We super excited about our two sessions, Powerful Women in Podcasting and Podcasting History and Podcast 2.0 with Adam Curry. Interview: Blubrry podcasters, let us interview you for the show! Tell your story of podcasting right here on Podcast Insider. Email Todd@blubrry.com, Mike@blubrry.com or MacKenzie@blubrry.com. Support: Q: “I’m getting an SSL mixed content warning from the browser. My site is HTTPS. What’s wrong?” A: There is likely a photo on your site that is linked with http instead of https. If that photo (or other linked file) is on your site, change the link to https and you should be OK. If it’s offsite, see if the file works with https from the other source (sometimes it will). If that doesn’t work, down the file and re-upload it to your site and change the link. Also, use a plugin like Really Simple SSL to force https on all links that it will work on. If you are hosting and publishing on blubrry.com directly, make sure you put YOUR email address in the Podcast Settings in the blubrry.com dashboard. That way YOU will get the email from Apple and others instead of us. A trick we use in support for looking at RSS feeds. Install the Firefox browser (you don’t have to use it for anything other than looking at feeds if you don’t like the browser). Install the Add-on called RSSPreview https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/rsspreview/ (Very important that you get the one with no space in the name of it. There is another one called RSS Preview that is not the one I’m talking about). Then, when you load your feed in Firefox you get a nice view of it. You will see the title of your show, the description, the image and the posts listed. A cool tool for looking up a show https://castfeedvalidator.com/FindCast.php When you publish an episode, load your feed in Firefox and double check that it is there, and plays (You can click on the enclosure to open the media in the browser).

Podcasting events are alive and well in 2020. The Podfest team is hosting a virtual event this week and Podcast Movement is looking for proposals for speakers for their virtual event come October. There isn't much time left to submit, so act now. Speaking of virtual events, Todd and Mike discussed some tips on how to stand out and the ability to create some authority in these virtual events as opposed to the in person networking we're used to. Blubrry is way deep into a development process change and it involves the entire team. Meanwhile, later this month we'll be hosting a PowerPress webinar that new WordPress podcasters don't want to miss. Facebook Live Recording. Thanks for joining us this episode of Podcast Insider. Looking to be a guest on the show? Let us know. Recorded live from two well-separated and socially distant podcast studios in northern and southern Michigan; here’s Podcast Insider. News: Virtual Podfest Summit is ongoing this week. By the time you're reading this, they're reached their goal: Guinness World Record for the largest attendance of a 1-week virtual podcasting conference! Congrats :) Is Amazon and Audible adding podcasts? $61 million worth of podcast promos have been aired on radio stations in 2020 so far. But why? Joe Rogan had top reach Q2 in 2020. Edison Research shows Joe Rogan had the top reach in Q2 and other interesting data. Podcast Movement Virtual is looking for speakers - submit your proposal. Best Practice: Building authority during a virtual event: We live in a world in virtual events as opposed to in-person for the time being. One way you're able to stand out and garner some authority in your industry is by having a professional background. These are relatively easy and free or affordable to create. Blubrry News: PowerPress webinar, Aug 25 4-5 EDT. Sign up to attend here. The entire Blubrry team is switching from waterfall development process to SCRUM (Agile). It's quite a process! Interview: Mike Ehmcke - We Be Geeks Podcast Collective Blubrry podcasters, let us interview you for the show! Tell your story of podcasting right here on Podcast Insider. Email Todd@blubrry.com, Mike@blubrry.com or MacKenzie@blubrry.com. Support: Updated Blubrry Directory Listings We’ve had several users submit tickets about their Blubrry Directory listings showing no episodes, even though they’ve published some. The reason for this is because the Hosting Settings area in the Podcaster Dashboard is not set. You have to specify if you’re using a PowerPress feed or Blubrry.com feed, then the directory will update. Be sure to add your PowerPress feed in the correct spot as well, otherwise, we don’t know what feed you’re using! Where Can I See My Monthly Quota Balance? It’s always good to know how much upload space you have. There are a couple of different places you can find it, depending on how you’re using Blubrry Hosting. Publishing from Blubrry.com If you go to Upload New Media Files or Manage Published Files in the Podcaster Dashboard, you’ll see your upload balance in bold under the list of files. It will show you how much space you have left and how much your quota is in total. Publishing with PowerPress This one is a little harder to find, but when you go to upload a new file within PowerPress, you’ll find your balance at the bottom of the window. Scroll down and you’ll see Publishing Space Available with what’s left for the month. Keep in mind that your quota resets on the first of the month, but your billing date may differ, depending on what you originally signed up for hosting. WordPress issues can cause podcast feed issues. Be cautious when you add a plugin, check your RSS feed. Something that seems unrelated can cause problems if the developer of that plugin doesn’t really understand or ensure RSS compatibility.

Support: Updated Blubrry Directory Listings We’ve had several users submit tickets about their Blubrry Directory listings showing no episodes, even though they’ve published some. The reason for this is because the Hosting Settings area in the Podcaster Dashboard is not set. You have to specify if you’re using a PowerPress feed or Blubrry.com feed, then the directory will update. Be sure to add your PowerPress feed in the correct spot as well, otherwise, we don’t know what feed you’re using! Where Can I See My Monthly Quota Balance? It’s always good to know how much upload space you have. There are a couple of different places you can find it, depending on how you’re using Blubrry Hosting. Publishing from Blubrry.com If you go to Upload New Media Files or Manage Published Files in the Podcaster Dashboard, you’ll see your upload balance in bold under the list of files. It will show you how much space you have left and how much your quota is in total. Publishing with PowerPress This one is a little harder to find, but when you go to upload a new file within PowerPress, you’ll find your balance at the bottom of the window. Scroll down and you’ll see Publishing Space Available with what’s left for the month. Keep in mind that your quota resets on the first of the month, but your billing date may differ, depending on what you originally signed up for hosting. WordPress issues can cause podcast feed issues. Be cautious when you add a plugin, check your RSS feed. Something that seems unrelated can cause problems if the developer of that plugin doesn’t really understand or ensure RSS compatibility.
Podcasting events are alive and well in 2020. The Podfest team is hosting a virtual event this week and Podcast Movement is looking for proposals for speakers for their virtual event come October. There isn't much time left to submit, so act now. Speaking of virtual events, Todd and Mike discussed some tips on how to stand out and the ability to create some authority in these virtual events as opposed to the in person networking we're used to. Blubrry is way deep into a development process change and it involves the entire team. Meanwhile, later this month we'll be hosting a PowerPress webinar that new WordPress podcasters don't want to miss. Facebook Live Recording. Thanks for joining us this episode of Podcast Insider.

Congrats :) Is Amazon and Audible adding podcasts? $61 million worth of podcast promos have been aired on radio stations in 2020 so far. But why? Joe Rogan had top reach Q2 in 2020.

Support: Shawn’s strategies for launching a new show If there’s a planned launch date in mind, give yourself plenty of lead time to get everything in place. Launching a new podcast is rarely a “weekend project,” especially for brand new podcasters (though, it can get easier with subsequent launches); give yourself adequate time to avoid going into panic mode. Levelator (for Mac and maybe others) issues: It's currently causing some trouble on Apple Products for playback. Make sure you are encoding your files correctly. Mp3 format, 44.1khz sample rate (Or 48khz works too), 128kbps CBR bitrate is best.
