Todd Cochrane starts the conversation by reflecting on the broad perspective that podcasting and online media have become synonymous with mainstream media. Rob mentions specific shifts, like Comcast’s move away from mainstream cable channels due to declining audiences. Rob Greenlee expands on the idea, discussing the role of video in podcasting and how major platforms have influenced the industry’s evolution. He talks about the derogatory treatment of video podcasting by more giant platforms like Spotify and the industry’s potential mistakes in handling video content.

This leads to a discussion about ‘new media’ and whether traditional platforms like radio and cable are still relevant compared to the rapidly evolving podcast space. Toward the end of the episode, Rob reflects on the potential future of podcasting, suggesting that it might increasingly blend with general online content creation rather than be a standalone format. This leads to their final thoughts on the importance of maintaining an open platform for podcasting, contrasting it with more closed ecosystems like YouTube or proprietary streaming services, where creators have less control. This episode provides a comprehensive overview of the podcast industry’s current state and challenges, particularly focusing on the impact of technological changes, platform policies, and the shift toward more controlled content environments.

Cheri-CreationScience4Kids

Sure they're old school, like ground floor old school. Sure they are biased towards their respective companies' approach to podcasting. But they care about us. A lot. And it shows. I listen to keep up with the cutting edge of the industry and I listen to relax. It's not a show for everyone, but I'm not "everyone" and I enjoy hearing from those who fight to improve our community. It's fun to get to know some of the most passionate and influential people in the podcasting space as real people!
Embarrassing

I tried this show for more than a year. There was occasionally an interesting topic, but too often the discussion was completely uninformed and therefore uninformative. It’s actually embarrassing, considering.

Todd and Rob are a wealth of knowledge when it comes to podcasting. I like the offer for a NMx VIP! Todd thanks for posting on Podcaster’s Master Mind. The discussion of equipment and of millennials is very interesting. Reference to sound, Todd sound is very good but Rob is slightly distorted.
