"You can't make money from podcasting" they say.

"If anything, it will cost you money" they cry.

You can make money from your podcast, if you know what you're doing, and you're willing to play the game wisely, and with long term goals in mind. Podcasting is certainly not a get-rich-quick scheme.

This episode takes you through the most commonly used methods of monetising a podcast, and then helps you avoid picking the bad ones.

We talk about (usually) Indian based 'podcast promoters', and catch an actual podcast promoter in a lie. His name has been spared to protect the guilty.

There's some "lovely listener feedback from an international listener!"

The surprising podcast is all about aviation! Check out Woodrow Bellamy (THE THIRD)s silken tones!
