Helping the Craft

Thanks to the folks behind this podcast for authentic conversations about the exciting and daunting things about being a podcaster! Great mix of analysis on tech combined with various approaches to managing and designing shows. Loving current season with many voices of podcasters talking about how they do their work. Very well done.

100% practical

Listened to the 1000 series on the basics and launched my organization’s podcast with no prior production experience. Huge thanks to Colin and his co-hosts for helping the podcaster community grow and flourish – and for the winning Scottish accents!

Speakers of Experience

Unlike other podcasts I’ve listened to, these guys really seem to know what they’re talking about from experience, as opposed to people trying to figure it out, and hoping a lightbulb moment will occur in real-time.

Helped me get started

Before starting my podcast, The Single Acorn, I listened to a ton of episodes. This podcast helped me troubleshoot and solve problems before they even arose. I felt confident out of the gate that I was creating a quality product

Learn all about podcasting

A few things about Colin: He's knowledgable about podcasting, he's intelligent, and he communicates well. All of the above makes him a great teacher. You will do yourself a great service listening to The Podcast Host. BTW: Their branding is amazing!

I Can Relate

Thank you for covering content and interaction. I find it challenging sometimes myself, and my clients also struggle with content. Too do a series on this is needed. This will defintely keep me interested. Thanks again. The Productive Podcaster

Good topics, boring execution

I really wanted to like these guys. The topic ideas are great, but their deliver and vocals are SOOOO BORING that they lul me to sleep in 5 minutes :( I cant handle another episode. Its too bad. I was kinda stoked to get into it.

can't listen if eps DON'T DOWNLOAD AT ALL

The last two (at least) episodes will not download at all. What did you change to make it stop? The RSS feed information? Was the episode even uploaded? Is it now only available to people who subscribe via their phones? With Net Neutrality gone, I WILL NOT bother with smart phones, as the costs of data plans has gone from ridiculously expensive to obscenely overpriced.

Trailer brilliance

If only I’d seen this before I recorded my trailer! Fantastic tips like skipping the welcome, getting right to who it’s for and putting a clear call to action at the end with a good link. Thanks Colin and Matthew!

A lot of information for people with a podcast or thinking about creating a podcast.

I have an idea for a podcast, and this podcast has given me a wealth of information and things to consider while building my idea and hopefully putting these idea into practical application in the near future! Thanks for putting this information out here!

Great Info for Podcasters At Any Level

Colin Gray is no joke. This podcast is stocked up w/ information for those starting a podcast or well into their 100th episode. Even if your podcast is just an idea at the moment, Colin helps bring it to life.

Pretty sure this is my favorite

I listen to several podcasts on podcasting and this one really helps me to see my show in a context. Every show is different and I feel like on podcraft I’m encouraged to embrace that difference.

Awesome!

I recently started a podcast as a hobby and it became much more successful than I ever thought possible in the first month. I had no knowledge of what to do with it, until listening to this. Great stuff man thank you!
TrashTalkMMA

super helpful!

I just started my TrashTalkMMA podcast and Colin’s wisdom has been invaluable. He even took time out of his busy schedule to answer some questions via email and promoted my site and podcast on Twitter. A real human being with real tangible solutions, this is a great podcast for starting and upgrading your podcast, thanks Colin!
Dan Feld/Prologue Profiles

So good!

Colin’s an awesome host, picks awesome guests and touches on awesome topics. Listen to Colin interview John Lee Dumas to learn from one of the best out there. Thank you Colin!

The Accent Makes Me Believe Everything He Says

What a great podcast. I honestly try to listen to this one every night as I fall asleep because the accent lulls me to sleep. But then I have to listen again in the morning because my sleep brain heard something awesome. My only beef is that sometimes the music is so loud it wakes me back up, but maybe that was the intention. Good stuff!
