On this episode of the Podcasting Underground, I give you my take on whether podcasting is an industry. I’ll also tell you why I think if you want to really make money, you should stop being a podcaster.
This episode goes a little long, but I had a lot of important things to share. Please let me know what you think about this issue in the comments below.
Items mentioned in this podcast:
* Michael Geoghegan’s blog post that sparked this episode
* Professional Podcasting Course - Starts on April 28th. Enrollment will open shortly before that
* TubeMogul - Service for submitting your videos to the top video sharing sites in a fraction of the time
