About

Are you looking to use your social media to help your hobby podcast? If so, this episode might be for you. There's been a TON of changes in social media since we last talked about it, so in this episode we'll run down several potential social media platforms that you may want to consider, we'll chat about some challenges you may face as a hobby podcaster, and we'll recommend some best practices for navigating the wide spread of platforms currently available.


In the Better Podnerings this week, topics include:



    VDO.ninja multi-track audio
    Stephen explains his editing workflow
    More Rodecaster Pro issues

Finally, in this week's Better Podback topics include:



    Initial feedback about a Garage Sale channel
    PodTrak P4 use
    Rodecaster Pro 2 update options
    Request for a pic
