Are you thinking about starting a podcast?

Hello all,

I'm actually starting a new podcast (https://practical.fm) where I'm documenting the process I take in building projects.

I'm recording a pilot episode in the next couple of weeks, the project is aimed at people thinking about starting a podcast, to help build an audience before they launch.

I'd love to talk to anyone thinking about starting a podcast, to make sure I'm building something good for you.

I'm happy to chat on Twitter (https://twitter.com/mubashariqbal DMs are open) or you can email me:
me -@-mubs.me

Thanks in advance for your time!

    Mubs - this is gonna be epic. I love this idea, and am looking forward to it!

      Thanks Noah, excited to see how this turns out.

    Thanks for coming on my show yesterday, @Mubs! It already got some positive feedback on YouTube. 😀

    Hi Mubs, I think this is a great idea. I did email you previously about my podcast and being a guest (milestonehackers) but this new project would fit perfectly in my case. I just recorded the first episode however, I did not launch yet. I'm planning on at least3 complete episodes prior to launch...

      Thanks for the reply and the reminder about the email!

      I'll loop you in on the idea when we chat :)

    I was thinking about it for thegoodstartup.com! We're currently a blog about companies saving the world, but I wonder if people would prefer the content as audio instead of writing

      This is just they type of situation I was looking for 😀

      Could I email you or can DM on twitter?

    you will be amazing. I've been running a podcast for a while now - http://takeitev.transistor.fm - and I'm still warming up as a host and author. Takes time, but I'm sure you got more ideas and content than me!

      Thank you!

      As you can tell I like building so content shouldn't be a problem 😀

        You and me buddy! Creation is the bane of my existence (and the pain sometimes).

    I keep thinking about starting one, cause I really need more on my todo list!

    1. 1

      Haha yes that was definitely a concern for me, but I think it might be quicker than trying to write more blog posts 🤣

    Very cool! So looking forward to listening to your journey and experience.

    Awesome stuff Mubs!

    Going to be launching a new podcast soon documenting the week by week work I do with a friend on our new side project. So could be a good fit for you?

    Also - I've put together a lot of ideas on how to grow podcasts (and interviewed a few podcasters myself to ask them about how they grow their podcasts) - so you might be interested in that too.

    Just shoot me an email :)

    1. 1

      Yeah definitely, will shoot you an email tonight!

    We recently got to edit your voice for an episode of Getting to Ramen, and as @joshuaanderton put it "(Castup) makes all my other episodes sound so dull (in a good way!)"

    Let us know if you need help? We're at https://useCastup.com
