And they specify that they are trying to show the reader some &#8220;beginner-friendly&#8221; options to purchase if you want to start going into podcasting. And note that you will be interspersed with pop-up ads and other calls-to-action to subscribe to their pages. But they continue:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The right computer for the right price;<\/li>\n<li>The right microphone (and they present the AT2020 mic and the Snoball mic &#8212; which were popular and promoted back in 2007);<\/li>\n<li>Audio interfaces for your microphone;<\/li>\n<li>Audio-mixing and editing software options;<\/li>\n<li>Windscreens (with no mention of pop-filters);<\/li>\n<li>Headphones and amplifiers;<\/li>\n<li>Microphone stands;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Now, for this podcaster who has been creating and publishing podcast content for the past 15 years, I would look at this list and immediately see that many key options are missing. This could be (for the neophyte) a bit confusing &#8212; especially if the new and aspiring podcaster has been consuming podcast episodes from shows of more experienced and knowledgeable podcasters (e.g., <a href=\"http:\/\/schoolofpodcasting.com\"><em><strong>Dave Jackson in The School of Podcasting<\/strong><\/em><\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/theaudacitytopodcast.com\"><em><strong>Daniel J Lewis of The Audacity to Podcast<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>For if you go and peruse the site of <a href=\"http:\/\/schoolofpodcasting.com\"><em><strong>Schoolofpodcasting.com<\/strong> <\/em><\/a>(as an example), Dave Jackson actually gives you an updated version of different courses for the aspiring podcaster, such as:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items\">\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Planning your podcast<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Content is king<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><strong><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Podcasting Equipment<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Skype 101 and recording remote interviews<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Your Podcast Website<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">The mechanics of podcasting<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Podcasting with Audacity<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\"><a class=\"pretty-link-keyword\" title=\"Adobe Audition Professional Sound Editing Software\" href=\"https:\/\/schoolofpodcasting.com\/audition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Adobe Audition<\/a> Basics<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Podcasting with Hindenburg journalist<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Using the PowerPress plugin<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Podcasting with Gargeband<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Publishing your podcast (Libsyn, Blubrry and more)<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Communicating With Your audience<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Submitting your show to Apple and other directories<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Growing your audience<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fas fa-microphone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Monetizing your podcast<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Notice that podcasting equipment is just one of the courses offered.

So free consulting for basic questions can be answered live by Dave and his co-host, <a href=\"http:\/\/theaverageguy.tv\"><em><strong>Jim Collison of theaverageguy.tv<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So I, myself, as an experienced podcaster and podcast consultant would recommend Dave&#8217;s course and his podcast shows to help you get the most out of considering the &#8220;best&#8221; equipment and other issues in beginning your podcasts. And, of course, what is &#8220;best&#8221; for you is unique, because your show and your situation is unique &#8212; it all depends on your objectives, your audience targeted, your themes and your time and effort that you wish to put into podcasting.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your attention.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright (c) 2020, Matrix Solutions Corporation and Dave Jackson of schoolofpodcasting.com.
