Behind the Mic: 20 Years of Podcasting Secrets from Libsyn’s VP
Description
What happens when you get a 15-minute phone call from Joe Rogan asking for help with his struggling podcast? Rob Walch found out in the early 2000s when the future king of podcasting was just another comedian whose hosting couldn't handle the traffic. As VP of Podcaster Relations at Libsyn and creator of the first podcast about podcasting (Podcast 411), Rob Walch has spent over 20 years watching the industry evolve from hand-coded RSS feeds to billion-download juggernauts. In this episode, he shares the behind-the-scenes stories and battle-tested strategies that shaped modern podcasting. Rob's journey from customer to employee at Libsyn gives him a unique perspective on what actually works versus what sounds good in theory. Whether you're just starting out or looking to optimize an existing show, his 20+ years of hands-on experience offer actionable insights you won't find anywhere else.
