Since the dawn of time in the podcasting industry, there hasn’t really been a compelling reason to create episode-specific artwork for your podcast. It was often put in the “I’ll do it later” basket and because podcast platforms couldn’t display specific artwork anyway, it felt like a bit of a waste of energy.

This is no longer the case, and with the changes coming to the latest version of iOS the artwork that you’re able to see on your podcast players can be specific to your episodes. This opens a whole new world of possibilities for podcast branding!

As a podcast producer and media professional who has been working in this space for over eight years, I’ve seen many evolutions of podcasting. One of the largest shifts in recent years is the discussion around how to effectively monetise your podcast if you’re not part of an established podcast network.

This platform has evolved into the frontrunner in the race to deliver exceptional audio and video quality and we’re going to break down why it’s winning right now.

At the time of this recording, the Rode NT USB Mini has already established itself as a favourite among our clients due to its portability and ease of use. It's compact and comes with a magnetic stand, making it perfect for travellers and content creators on the go. On the other hand, the Rode PodMic USB/XLR is relatively new to the market, and we're eager to see how it stacks up against the NT USB Mini.

Podcasting isn't always easy, especially when you're in a creative slump. We've all been there. Staring at a blank screen, desperately hoping for that lightbulb moment to strike.
