Notes de l’épisode
Adam Curry, the “Podfather” and co-creator of podcasting, explains Podcasting 2.0, value for value, and how to build a podcast community that helps sustain your show.
From his first pirate radio station in the Netherlands to No Agenda and Podcast Index, Adam shares what he’s learned about finding a co-host, inviting listener feedback, and defining success beyond download numbers.

- Why listener feedback makes a show better
- How No Agenda developed its value-for-value approach: time, talent, and treasure
- How Bitcoin’s Lightning Network enables small payments and revenue splits
