Thank You For Joining Me: Inside Indie Podcasting
Thank You for Joining Me is for the newbie and indie podcaster. It's about what happens before (and after) the episode and most importantly, what happens in between.
From the excitement of episode one to avoiding the podcrash after episode ten, we'll not only cover the nut-and-bolts of creating your podcast, but also the mindset that will keep you going!
Join in for episodes ranging from my personal podcast thoughts to sharing the space with podcast friends who will share their podcasting process, as well as insights of how to balance it outside of real life.
We'll also talk about the hurdles of sharing our voice, and how to keep the creative spark going. This is a space where we can talk about what's working - and what's not working - in our podcasty life, share insights, and stay inspired so we can all keep hitting PUBLISH!

11. Podcasting with friends: Celebrating 10 years of podcasting with Julio Olivera (co-host, The Contrarians Podcast)
Today's episode* is a casual chat with my dear friend (and fellow podcaster and writer), Julio Olivera (co-host, of The Contrarians podcast).
The Contrarians podcast is a show where Julio and his co-host, Alex Mattis, take on popular opinion, trashing movies everyone loves and praising movies everyone hates, and is currently celebrating it's 10th year! No small feat.
Julio met during our screenwriting days at AFF (Austin Film Festival) and it was during that time I learned about this thing called "podcasting." Julio was doing it before many of us, so I wanted to sit down with him in a vibe similar to many panels we sat in at AFF, where we'd watch two seasoned writers talk about their process, their ups, and downs, and give their advice to new writers.
In this episode, we'll talk about how we bring our writer/editor hat to the podcast space, get nerdy about recording software, editing, Youtube, and Patreon, and learn what has helped Julio publish episodes for ten years. Spoiler alert: it's having good friends.
Julio will also share some advice for anyone starting in podcasting and it's a GEM!
