This short podcast trailer (single-speaker monologue) advises prospective podcasters to treat a show as a media brand and to get clear on their purpose before launching. The speaker emphasizes assessing personal commitment — being willing to do the work to launch, produce, and grow the show — and frames podcasting as creating owned content on a controllable platform.

Chapters

I always say, if you start a podcast today, this time next year, you're going to be so glad that you did. But if you look at it as number one, you're becoming a media company as a brand, starting a podcast, starting a YouTube channel. You are creating content on a platform that you control. Getting clear on why you want to start a podcast is first and foremost. I think the next thing in line is making sure that you're in line with your own level of commitment. Are you willing to do the work that needs to be done in order to launch the show, continue to produce the show, and continue to grow the show?
