534. 19 Years of Podcasting: Lessons From Daniel J. Lewis
If you've been podcasting for a while, you know the lessons that stick often come from experience. The morning show cast and crew sit down with Daniel J. Lewis, who's been podcasting for nearly two decades, to talk about years of podcasting, from dial-up internet and RSS feeds to audience growth, video, and Podcasting 2.0. Daniel walks through the hard part: staying consistent when life gets messy, what he's learned from nearly two decades in the industry, and why listener relationships beat trend-chasing every time. Here's the thing: tools change, platforms come and go, but building a show people actually care about comes down to showing up, connecting with your audience, and remembering why you started.
