  • More Video, More AI, More Questions
    2026/07/28

    Matt Cundill, Jon Gay, Johnny Podcasts and eventually David Yas explore the shifting landscape of podcast production and distribution. We talked about Apple's Podcasts video rollout and asked if it has reached meaningful adoption among creators and listeners. We examine new measurement standards proposed by the Alliance for Measurement in Podcasting, including redefined metrics for plays and ad impressions that could reshape how the industry values downloads. The story was breaking as we were recording so if you want a better understanding, click here on the story from Ashley Carmen (paywalled), Sounds Profitable or check out the interview with Dan Granger on the Podnews Weekly Review.

    Later in the show, Johnny demonstrates his creation, Podcast Engine AI, a custom tool he built to streamline show notes, social posts, and metadata generation from transcripts.

    Catherine O'Brien was attending an event and was missed. Especially when we were talking about marketing and Apple.

    Other Things We Talked About:

    - The challenge of solo podcasting compared to interview shows and how to approach it authentically

    - Why YouTube Premium's bundling strategy signals a larger consolidation trend in media

    - How AI tools like Riverside's editor and Descript's clip generator are compressing production timelines

  • Is It Worth It?
    2026/06/03
    Matt Cundill, Jon Gay, and Catherine O’Brien dig into the growing pile of tools, platforms, and metrics shaping podcast production today. The conversation starts with a key question for creators and clients: are downloads still the best measure of success, or is time spent listening becoming the more meaningful number? The group looks at the challenge of tracking audience behaviour across audio, video, Spotify, YouTube, and social platforms, where the old podcast measurement rules do not always apply. They also compare production tools including Riverside, Descript, Adobe, OneStream, and AI platforms, weighing features against cost, convenience, and workflow friction. Catherine highlights the importance of strong headlines and audience-first positioning, while Jon and Matt examine how subscription creep is forcing producers to rethink their software stack. It is a practical, candid episode about choosing tools that reduce hassle, improve output, and help podcasters focus on the work that actually matters.Both Johnny and David will be back next week.The Products we spoke about: Here’s a list of the products/services mentioned, with official links and approximate US prices (these change frequently)Riverside – from approx. $19/month (paid plans, annual discounts available) StreamYard – https://streamyard.com – from approx. $25/month (Basic) and $49/month (Professional, annual billing) OneStream Live – from approx. $10–$39/month depending on plan Descript (incl.

  • Questions We Don't Know The Answers To
    2026/05/06

    There is stuff in Podcasting that keeps us up at night. So we tried to answer our own questions the best we could.

    We discussed various aspects of podcasting, including audience engagement, analytics, and budgeting. Johnny Podcasts emphasized the importance of email lists and surveys for long-term data collection. David Yas highlighted the need for high-quality microphones, recommending the Samson Q2U and Rode PodMic. The group debated the value of podcast awards, with Catherine O'Brien suggesting they can be a marketing opportunity. They also discussed using AI for thumbnails and the importance of vetting podcast studios. The episode concluded with a discussion on the cost-effectiveness of starting a podcast, estimating a budget of around $100 for essential equipment.

    Here are the links to a number of the products we talked about:

    Johnny talked about a product he is using called Remini which is an AI photo enhancement tool. It solves the problem of getting hi-resolution photos from your guests.

    Here is our Microphone Recommendation list:

    Samson Q2U (USB/XLR dynamic microphone)

    RØDE PodMic (XLR dynamic broadcast mic)

    Shure MV7 (USB/XLR dynamic podcast mic)

    MOTU M2 (USB-C audio interface)

    FIFINE USB/XLR microphone
