What if your podcast could run like a real business—not just a weekly upload?
In this episode, we talk with the founder of podup, a platform designed to simplify everything from recording to growth and monetization. After building and exiting multiple companies, he saw how fragmented podcasting had become—and built podup to bring it all under one roof.
We get into what’s actually working right now when it comes to growing a podcast, why most creators burn out, and how to think beyond just audio episodes.
You’ll learn:
- Why most podcasts stall (and how to fix it)
- The shift from podcast → full content engine
- How podup replaces dozens of tools
- Monetization strategies that go beyond ads
- Why recurring revenue matters more than downloads
- The role of AI in speeding up production without losing quality
If you’re trying to grow, monetize, or streamline your podcast workflow, this episode will give you a clearer path forward.
