[00:00:52] "Ecamm demo, sponsors, and podcast branding."
[00:06:35] Sent it to LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube; Ecamm is a Mac-only app for podcasting. They cater to Mac users. Spotify changes revenue share for ads. Negative press for big companies. CNN puts MP3 files on YouTube.
[00:16:07] Don't do it. Podcast vs. YouTube battle.
[00:21:05] Tool Toasty automates podcast transcription with AI. Other options include Magai, Cast Magic, and Capshoo.
[00:27:25] Jeff mentioned a new AI tool called Maghai. It allows you to save prompts in a library and costs $9. There is an affiliate link at audacitytopodcast.com/magai. Some people may be hesitant about AI, but it can be powerful and helpful.
[00:35:26] Summary: Promotion strategies include sending images, prewritten tweets, show links, and using Discord for communication. Repurposing content and making it easy for guests to share is important. Some use t-shirts and e-cards for added promotion.
[00:42:46] Send a thank you note with gift card. Promote show if interested, not pressuring.
[00:48:35] Media hosting can be expensive and resource-intensive, but there are affordable options like Red Circle, Lipsyn, Buzzsprout, and Captivate. Some hosts may require a dedicated server or charge higher fees for popular shows. It's generally recommended to use a media host, although it's not necessary. Red Circle offers free hosting with good customer service, while other hosts may have limitations and additional charges.
[00:54:37] "Pod ops: podcast hosting with all-in-one tools."
[01:02:42] Sure MVX 2U is a new USB microphone by Sure that offers clean gain and the ability to save settings. It can be used with any non-USB microphone. Lipson allows users to use their own domain for a fee.
[01:06:31] Free podcasting tips, software, and equipment recommendations.
[01:13:06] Video game buyer prefers simple racing experience. Editor uses new Streamyards feature successfully. Randy asks about Sony VZ camera. User finds Sony camera inconvenient for streaming. Considering alternatives for YouTube videos. Regrets camera depreciation after new models released. Apologies for lateness, promises improvement next time.
[01:16:23] There's no one way to podcast.
