Real Talk Podcasting

We're sponsoring an awesome event. Learn more by listening this [very brief] episode and by visiting ShareYourPod.com and applying to attend for FREE. See you in a week!

This week we’re speaking broadly and in response to last weeks multiple bombshells on the monetization and partnership fronts. Apple Podcasts will now allow podcasters to charge for podcasts, and Facebook has partnered with Spotify to create a new podcast-inclusive social audio feature within the Facebook ecosystem. Looks like things are getting real on Real Talk Podcasting this week.  Check out UserWay.org https://userway.org ([link]) Read Tanner's article on Apple Podcasts https://realtalkpodcasting.com/2021/04/apples-monetization-move-has-far-broader-implications-than-you-may-think/ ([link]) Read about the Facebook/Spotify "partnership" https://variety.com/2021/digital/news/facebook-spotify-podcasts-audio-messaging-1234954848/ ([link])
