    Podcasters Assemble | On Content, Audience & Building Communities

    From Cyrus Broacha's wisdom from 2000 years ago when he was the next big thing on television to how Yogi or Kabeer's 10th cousin would have more rights to their assets should anything happen to either of them - despite being together as an openly gay couple for 9+ years. From Naina Bhan's opinion on the IG page meant exclusively for Tamannaah Bhatia's navel to the appeal for Mantra Mugdh's Bhaskar Bose - a man the audience will never see - the panel discussion captured in this episode is as captivating as a binge-worthy podcast series. Hosted by Rohini Ramnathan, this episode is about content and audience: building and leveraging communities. Because, in the world of podcasting, your community is your lifeline. It’s like having a loyal group of friends who are always excited to hear your latest story and just like real friends they will also ghost you for cancelling plans at the last minute. One might say, if a podcast drops an episode in the forest and no one is there to hear it, does it even make a sound? So how do you create content that builds and leverages a community? Cyrus Broacha, Mantra Mugdh, Yogi & Kabeer and Naina Bhan spill the beans. Tune into this candid episode, as they share their secrets and give a glimpse into the future of podcasting in India. Podcasters Assemble!
