ReThinking Podcasting: Deep Reflections for Thoughtful Podcasters

ReThinking Podcasting: Deep Reflections for Thoughtful Podcasters

A Path to Flourishing for Podcasters

"RE:Thinking Podcasting" shares a philosophical approach to how you should think about your life as a podcaster. Through philosophical thinking and the Socratic Method, Matthew Bliss unpacks commonly accepted podcasting ideas and advice, and asks questions of his guests and of himself to help you discover your own reflective, self-sustaining podcast workflows and strategy.

For too long, Podcasters have been asking the same basic questions:
❌ How do I get more listeners?
❌ What's the best microphone?
❌ Which app is best for algorithmic growth?
❌ What should I talk about on my podcast?

"RE:Thinking Podcasting" will help you ask the right questions to get the answers you need to make the biggest impact to your podcast. It's through reflective practice and conversational reframing that you will grow to ask for what you really need, and you may even be able to answer your own questions.

It's time for the podcasting conversation to ascend and empower us all to create the shows that bring us happiness and flourishing in all its forms. Join Matthew Bliss on the journey to raise your thinking and find your own podcasting philosophy.
