Upon Further Review: Taking a Second Look at Your Past Episodes
2026/10/10
Send us feedback/questions via Text
This week Dave and Jim dig into the messy, human side of podcasting — Jim debuts a brand-new recurring segment where he calls out his own mistakes from past episodes (yes, really), a listener spirals over editing software and begs for a faster workflow, and the guys argue over whether $9 a month is worth switching streaming platforms. Throw in a deep dive on why YouTube Shorts and clips might be the secret weapon you’re ignoring, a surprisingly practical lesson on matching your website colors to your show art, and some hard truths about trimming the fat out of your interviews, and you’ve got another fast-moving, genuinely useful hour of live podcast coaching.

Is Podcast Advertising Doomed?
2026/10/03
Send us feedback/questions via Text
Adam Curry asked an AI agent to download the latest episode of a popular podcast and remove the ads. Eight minutes later it was done, and it turned out half the file was ads. Dave and Jim react to the clip and ask whether this is the end of podcast advertising or just the next round of an ad-blocking arms race that YouTube has already survived. Then they get practical. Why "cap it at 10%" might be the smartest ad strategy around. Why a $12 book sale beats 2,400 downloads. And how a 42-second social media post turned out to be worth far more clicks than Dave expected. If you've ever wondered whether ads, subscriptions, or social media are worth your time, press play.

Auphonic's New Studio Voice Beta
2026/09/26
Send us feedback/questions via Text
Dave is back from Podcast Movement in New York City with a full report on the new venue, the split business and indie days, and the $1.50 pizza. He and Jim cover a lot this week.
Video Version (unedited)
Randy Black plays a before-and-after demo of Auphonic's new Studio Voice beta that turns an echoey 8-year-old Skype call into something that sounds like it came from a treated studio. A new industry stat puts Netflix at number three for podcast consumption, ahead of Apple, which leads to a debate about what counts as a "podcast" and why a closed platform matters to independent creators.
Dan Schultz makes the case that audio-first shows can skip the YouTube algorithm games, handle SEO in ten minutes, and spend the rest of their time making the show good. Jim shares early results from his YouTube Shorts experiment and a surprisingly powerful stats tool hiding in YouTube Studio.

Embedding Live Streams to Reinforce Your Brand
2026/09/12
Send us feedback/questions via Text
What do you do when YouTube dies mid-livestream, a fire alarm goes off in your office, and a guest sits frozen on screen for seven awkward minutes? Dave and Jim tackle real live-show disasters this week, plus how to embed your own live stream on your website without touching an RTMP link, why AI keeps butchering your guests' last names, and whether those "automatic clip maker" tools are actually saving you any time (spoiler: maybe not). They also dig into resurrecting old blog content with ChatGPT, the real conversion rate on 60-second clips, and why "7-figure podcaster" claims deserve a serious side-eye.

Hobbies Cost Money - Quit Wasting Your Time
2026/09/05
Send us feedback/questions via Text
It's Labor Day weekend, but Dave and Jim aren't taking one off from the AI rabbit hole — this episode covers everything from free (and not-so-free) transcription services to the moment ChatGPT started recommending third-party apps mid-workflow, plus a candid gut-check for the podcaster who's 89 episodes in and wondering if it's time to quit. Throw in Audacity 4's big redesign, a debate over how often you really need to disclose affiliate links, and a war story about paying influencers gone wrong, and you've got a jam-packed hour of practical advice, real talk, and the usual Dave-and-Jim banter to kick off your holiday weekend.

Conferences and Communities: Why Go? How to Build?
2026/08/29
Send us feedback/questions via Text
Dave and Jim spent most of the show riffing on conferences and community, sparked by Dave's recent trip to the Empowered Podcasting Conference. He recapped the small-but-mighty vibe of the event, a "woo-woo" keynote that split the room (a good reminder that not every talk is for every audience), and reconnecting in person. We also talk about:

Zero to Sixty Podcast
2026/08/15
Send us feedback/questions via Text
Everyone wants the 10,000-download podcast, but almost nobody wants to talk about how you actually get there. In this episode of Ask the Podcast Coach, Dave Jackson and Jim Collison dig into a listener's question that stops most podcasters cold: can you really study a podcast's rise from zero to sixty the way a business school studies a company? The answer gets messy fast. Copying what worked for someone else, chasing burger-chain nostalgia, and mistaking a microphone for a financial plan all come up before Dave and Jim land on what actually separates the podcasts that make it from the ones that quietly disappear around episode eight. If you've ever wondered whether there's a real playbook for podcast growth, or just a lot of hustle dressed up as one, this conversation is the honest version nobody's selling you.
