Podcast Answer Man Episode 112
An Example of Podcasting With Purpose
In This Episode:
First off, I want to remind you to REGISTER FOR THE WEBINAR that is coming up this weekend.
In the last episode, I shared with you the idea of podcasting with a purpose. In this episode, I give you an example of what this sort of thing actually looks like by sharing a recent episode of my newly re-branded podcasts called “Pursuing A Balanced Life.”
There are a few things about this episode that I think podcasters might find interesting. Here are a few things to consider when listening
*Notice the transition sound effect when I fade into the episode that I share with you.
*Notice the amazing audio quality of the Edirol R-09HR audio recorder – Available for purchase through me.
*Notice out I used the voice mail feedback line to play audio from a listener and interacted with him during the recording of the content.
*Notice the fact that you don’t have to be “in studio” to record a podcast. Many of my listeners enjoy the ambient noises of me being outside more than sounding great in the studio.
*Notice the use of Social Media Tools to help brand your show. Seriously, CLICK HERE FOR AN EXAMPLEM.

Edirol Recorder and Voice Mail Options
In this episode, I answer some questions from one of my clients who has recently ordered a few pieces of audio gear from me. He’s considering the purchase of the Edirol R-09HR recorder and wanted to know if I recommended that he should use an external mic when doing interviews.
I share a few sample recordings using the Edirol with and without an external microphone. In the example where I do use an external microphone, I’m using the Electrovoice RE50/B microphone. Both the Edirol and the Mic are available for purchase through me!
I take consulting requests and equipment sales directly from you at 859-757-1399.
Also in this episode, I share three options for having a Voice Mail Feedback Line. The first two options, J2.com and K7.net are free services. The third service, which is the one that I use, is BroadVoice.com. If you choose to sign up with BroadVoice, please use my listener feedback line as the number that referred you to them. My Voice Mail Number with them is 859-795-4067.

Carrie Runnals from Words To Mouth
In this episode, I have the honor of interviewing Carrie Runnals from The DivaCast and Words To Mouth Podcast. I know many of you are inspired by the stories and insights of other podcasters and Carrie is one of those people who is really passionate about what she podcasts about. This to me is among the greatest traits that any podcaster can have.

Marketing Your Podcast
In this email, I share a direct message that I received from my friend, Daniel Johnson, Jr. He had provided me a link to this wonderful blog entry from Seth Godin. That of course inspired some additional thoughts on my mindset related to marketing your podcast.
Also in this episode, I answer a few listener questions. Steve McQueen from MCNationPodcast.com asked about placing a TalkShoe recording and putting it on your own podcast site. I also gave just a brief example of the sound of the JK Audio Broadcast Host. Finally, I took two calls from Tess from London, England regarding Wordpress and iTunes.
