Speaker 1: So be checked it out yet ero dot net A
Speaker 1: r r oe dot net. It is a podcast network.
Speaker 1: It's not just one show because you need the power
Speaker 1: of choice. We can go from rockstar talks to talking
Speaker 1: about sports to what's this a senator? Or even book authors,
Speaker 1: actors and musicians. Oh yeah, ero dot net. We were
Speaker 1: always trained in radio one thought per break. Then why
Speaker 1: do you have to be sifting through a bunch of
Speaker 1: names that you don't know to find who you're looking for?
Speaker 1: A r r oe dot net. Enjoy your exploration. Hey,
Speaker 1: what's going on? My name is Arrow, host of the
Speaker 1: weekly podcast Podcrashing and Podcrashing one on one. These episodes
Speaker 1: are connecting listeners to podcast specialists around the world. The
Speaker 1: goal has always been to inform our podcast community with
Speaker 1: subjects that deal with everything and beyond. The Thing that
Speaker 1: I've learned is that podcast hosts are very open and
Speaker 1: always filled with that spirit that spreads their skills as journalists,
Speaker 1: medical specialists, true crime soul gamblers, motivators, spiritualists, actors, and
Speaker 1: even their children. There really is a podcast for every subject.
Speaker 1: The goal is to get people to listen. Podcrashing one
Speaker 1: on one has been around since March of twenty nineteen.
Speaker 1: That original goal was to put focus on helping up
Speaker 1: and coming podcasters to have the right information about hosting
Speaker 1: and basically getting a podcast to survive. That idea went
Speaker 1: fifty four episodes before I adopted a new idea. Include
Speaker 1: all of those other podcasters in the conversation. The purpose
Speaker 1: of Podcrashing one on one is to help you build
Speaker 1: your own platform, promote it, and earn some money. This
Speaker 1: is Podcrashing one on one episode number four hundred and
Speaker 1: sixty nine. The workload recorded to host a successful podcast. Man,
Speaker 1: it's turning people away. Is anyone shocked by this? I mean,
Speaker 1: come on. It reminds me of a quote that major
Speaker 1: Dan Miller from Kokay and Billings, Montana one shared with me.
Speaker 1: He said, everybody thinks they can do a radio show
Speaker 1: until they have to pull it off six days a week,
Speaker 1: six to eight hours per shift. He said, anybody can
Speaker 1: do it. Podcasting is no different. I really do put
Speaker 1: in seven days a week, and the experts say there's
Speaker 1: no need to do that, dude, to which I reply,
Speaker 1: let me know when you want to walk in my shoes.
Speaker 1: I pushed seven days a week because I can't get
Speaker 1: it done. Even in five days listen. Podcasters know how
Speaker 1: to deal with the expected podcast workload. It's fragmented. It
Speaker 1: usually looks like an even flow of work until you
Speaker 1: have to get on that path. It's not just one
Speaker 1: handed expectations. Podcast teams are like walking into one of
Speaker 1: those rich people churches. The congregation can afford the luxury
Speaker 1: of having Mary on board. Well, most podcasts are all
Speaker 1: about one person. And if you are teamed up with anybody,
Speaker 1: do you trust that your co creator is even going
Speaker 1: to show up. We've got time robbers when it comes
Speaker 1: to podcasting. That's what happens when it comes to the writing,
Speaker 1: the gathering of information so that you can do some
Speaker 1: show prep, the recording, the physical editing, posting, promoting, studying
Speaker 1: the numbers, and building up a better workplace for your environment.
Speaker 1: When podcasters can't find the time, guess what the obvious
Speaker 1: choice is. People walk away? Coming up next? Why are
Speaker 1: they making such a decision to just kind of give
Speaker 1: things up? Hey, thanks for coming back to podcrashing one
Speaker 1: on one. Why do so many people decide to leave
Speaker 1: their podcasts? It's all about time. You can't bite at
Speaker 1: Walmart and Amazon isn't going to bring it over to
Speaker 1: your house on one of those little machines that will
Speaker 1: lower it in your front yard and give you a
Speaker 1: bottle of time. Uh huh. The quitting. Yeah, they are
Speaker 1: doing it, but why there's an opportunity here for effort
Speaker 1: and feedback and oh, it can be a mess on
Speaker 1: your human motivation like nothing else. We are wired to
Speaker 1: keep doing the things that we do to get a reaction.
Speaker 1: Another reason why podcasting hang ups take place is because
Speaker 1: of the digital connection. It is the inner perfectionist that wants,
Speaker 1: oh my god, or I gotta go because I didn't
Speaker 1: even get moved with this project, and I'm the one
Speaker 1: that thought about it. In the hearts of many podcasters,
Speaker 1: it's got to sound professional or don't even get started.
Speaker 1: You've got to keep up with the consistency platform and
Speaker 1: a lot of anxiety comes with this creative space. The
Speaker 1: idea of being a one person media platform is way
Speaker 1: too much responsibility and the emotional battles from hearing your
Speaker 1: voice to wondering if one even cares to listen to
Speaker 1: your voice, and how about those personal needs to keep
Speaker 1: up with the joneses. Oh my studio's got to look
Speaker 1: like this, Oh it's got to sound like this. Do
Speaker 1: I have this microphone? I need that? Who? Organic growth
Speaker 1: feels and looks like a burial ground? Who wants to
Speaker 1: hang out in all of that stanch? The rule to follow,
Speaker 1: you've got to convince yourself to stop chasing these things
Speaker 1: that you call a successful podcast and literally start practicing
Speaker 1: sustainable expression. Podcasting is like radio. You hate the idea
Speaker 1: that you've got to do it, but when you reach
Speaker 1: the end result, my god, there is no high like it.
Speaker 1: I'm aero and that's podcrashing one on one
