BONUS – 02- Real Academy of Life — about episodes and format

This episode contains the content of a “PASSION PODCAST PROJECT” that I have had for a while — in fact, I did talk about this in one of my prior episodes that dealt with “passion podcast projects.”


So now, the Real Academy of Life information center presents some history episodes about Sgt. Fred, who is the

In this episode of The Real Academy of Life Podcast show (which is being delivered to you care of The Podcast Reporter) I deliver the lessons learned about my own life in my own situations — and how I did create a learning set of resources that would put me on the road to my success in life (that is, spiritually, mentally, physically and not just monetarily).

Why did we include this podcast program with episodes within the Podcast Reporter Show?

We did this so that you can follow the ideas of my historical development in what I consider my own training grounds — an academy of learning, which I then call “THE REAL ACADEMY OF LIFE.” And until I get the web site completed for realacademyoflife.com, I will continue to use the Podcast Reporter podcast show as a way to host my audio files to my flagship audience, with the hope that new and aspiring podcasters can learn from my experience in how to create the content for autobiographical episodes.


Here we have the links and the podcast episodes within this content management system of WordPress for the first 2 episodes from this particular show. It is a short way and a good way for you to get the content without having to go to a separate WordPress page and try to either follow or subscribe or download. And these episodes are brought to you in a non-scheduled, unrehearsed and streamlined method very much like a stream-of-consciousness format.

And you can access the audio content in episodes from this site, for your listening pleasure and learning. But, please note that that these are presented to you so that you can get the content NOW as opposed to waiting for the final creation of the web site which will be at realacademyoflife.com (for I do have the domain name, but the site is not yet active). So when the final website is available, I will be publishing and releasing episodes both here and at the future site for the podcast episode. So you will have either location to choose from in obtaining the free content.

And we chose the album art for this show, as I was once a struggling entrepreneur, chasing income while expanding my base of podcasts since 2006 to over 19 podcast shows (where all but 4 have been podfaded as of the date of this writing). So I have always considered myself a “struggling entrepreneur” — which used to be the name of my past flagship podcast called The Struggling Entrepreneur (from 2006 to 2018).


The episodes of The Real Academy of Life can be accessed here using the following links:

Episode 1:  Inaugural podcast episode — what is this show about?


Episode 2:  Planned episode content and format of the show


Thus, we hope that you will find these episodes informative (as to my own personal experiences in the real academy of life), as well as entertaining and educational for new and aspiring podcasters.

We will continue to look forward to providing you with more information about my journey as I became educated by the hard-knocks in THE REAL ACADEMY OF LIFE.

Thank you for your attention.

497- A broadcaster and his journey in podcasting — a look back

In this episode of The Podcast Reporter, we deliver a look back at one of the original podcasters who came from the area of radio and internet broadcasting. This is Richard Cleveland, who had his production company called Naked Ape Production (the twitter handle is @naked_ape_prod). We were lucky enough to interview him from his site in Canada and learn what the difference would be in the world of “internet broadcasting” and podcasting.

And so, from almost a decade ago, we look at a moment back when the people in the internet did not understand podcasting. And here is how a veteran of over 20 years was able to launch successfully podcast shows with the intent of monetizing businesses in the podosphere.

This was originally an episode from an earlier podcast show called The Struggling Entrepreneur. And we thank Richard Cleveland for his time and his talent. By the way, later on in the years, Richard was a guest podcaster who contributed to one of the “rounds” of the Podcasters’ Roundtable podcast show, created and hosted by Ray Ortega.


In the early days of podcasting, we were forced to educate inquisitive minds about podcasting — we had to explain what a podcast was, and how subscriptions to shows did not necessarily mean a paid amount to subscribe, etc. And thus, Richard found an eloquent method of education so that people initially understood the concept of podcasting — it was an “internet broadcasting show.” And he has always been a proponent of the question: “are we podcasters or internet broadcasters?”

Now, although some of the links or sites may have changed or faded out from the podosphere, we owe much to early podcasters like Richard Cleveland who paved the way for today’s successful platform of new media in podcasting and getting it close to today’s broadcasting on the internet.

Thus, we hope that you will enjoy this repurposed episode from the archives of the early podcasters. And you can see, then, how much has changed, but how much has also stayed the same.

Thank you for your attention as we deliver some memories of podcasters in their journeys from the past.
