We've created this resource because the podcasting ecosystem is growing quickly and it can be intimidating if you're just getting started. We know this, because we're just getting started! Rather than learning by ourselves in a bubble, we figured we would share what we learn so others don't need to start at square one.
Additionally, we recently created the CasterCommunity! A community exclusively for podcasters to network with one another, discuss helpful tips, and share useful resources.
This is our mission, to make it easier for more people to create podcasts. We hope you find this list helpful!
