How to Find and Listen to Podcasts

Image
▼▼▼ Watch and Listen Below ▼▼▼ I had a conversation earlier today with a friend who was interested in listening to podcasts, but he'd found it difficult to find and access podcasts he might like to hear. If you are a new podcast listener or would like to start finding and enjoying podcasts, this quick tutorial will help you get started. Here's a link to the free mini course with access to Franklin's list of recommended podcasts and more! Finding a Phone or Device App The first step is to find an app you can use to listen on your smart devices. You already have at least one app on your phone or tablet that has podcast listening built in. I suggest you find an app that allows you to search, subscribe, stream, download, share, and review podcasts. If you have an Apple device like an iPhone or iPad, Apple Podcasts should be installed on your phone or easily accessed in the app store.

Diversity in Podcasting

I was asked a great question in the Podcasting for Marketing, Sales and Customer Service at Fort Collins Startup Week the other day. It was pointed out that the three case studies I'd used in the presentation were all hosted by white males, and the question that followed was "are there any podcasts you can recommend that are hosted by women or people of color?"

I thought I'd make a list of the ones I've enjoyed most frequently: Marketing School Podcast with Neil Patel and Eric Siu - Daily marketing insights and strategies. These guys breathe this stuff. Art Biz Podcast with Alyson Stanfield - I've learned so much from reading Alyson's Art Biz Success blog, and her latest podcasts have been excellent. The recent one featuring my friend Jan R.

Recommended Podcasts: Business Reimagined and StoryBrand

There is such a wealth of information floating out here in internetland. I've run across another couple of podcasts that are doing it right. The first, Business Reimagined from Danny Iny and the awesome team at Mirasee(formerly Firepole Marketing) is creating a standard for podcasting that is inspiring and excellent in every way. I downloaded all of the available episodes and have been listening to them in the car every time I go somewhere. Great guests, including people like Randy Gage , Nancy Duarte , and my latest new favorite author, Taylor Pearson(The End of Jobs) share insights and tips in a bounteous stream. Several episodes have been played on repeat, most notably the interview that Danny did with Donald Miller of StoryBrand. Some of my friends familiar with the Christian publishing world will likely recognize the name of this author of books like Blue Like Jazz, and last year's Scary Close. Donald has created an exceptional framework for shaping your message in a va...
