You won’t want to skip an episode

Dylan is an excellent podcaster and mentor for anyone looking to build their expertise in podcasting. He is both detailed and empathic enough for the beginner and educated and experienced enough for the intermediate and expert. His style is very easy to listen to, and most episodes are short enough to listen to on a commute or during a short walk. His podcast and content will always be a staple in my library. Highly recommended!

Electrical_Coffee ,

I can’t get enough

So many podcasts out there have so much fluff and it takes forever to find the actionable strategies. I love how straight to the point he is, and with his guests!
