“How do you start a podcast?”
I have received this question many times. You can see our Book Flood Podcast here.
You can spend a great deal of money to produce a podcast. I would not recommend doing so. It’s possible to get quality at an affordable price and it’s my thinking that you start from there.
Take a look at what I purchased below. These purchases all seemed reasonable to me.
| Product | Location | Description |
Riverside.fm | Research it here | This is your virtual studio; it’s what you buy, for not a lot of money, to see if podcasting is for you! |
| “Podcasting Made Simple” (Daniel Larson) | Research it here | This book jumpstarted me into podcasting! |
Blue Yeti Microphone | Research it here | The price/performance ratio makes this microphone a good choice for the new podcaster. |
2024 MacBook Air | Research it here | If you need a new computer at a reasonable price, the MacBook Air is the way to go. I love mine! |
OneOdio A70 headphones | Research it here | You will want headphones that you can plug into the microphone or into your computer. |
