PodStock
New Pod City - the only Podcast Hosting Company in New Jersey and the 60th Podcast Hosting Company in history, officially announced the first-of-its-kind Podcast focused event in Trenton, NJ, “PodStock”.
“Podstock was ambitious in every way,” says Will Foskey, President of the NPC Network, “Location, Trenton. Podcasting Event, New Pod City. SHURE, RODE, Mr. Wonderful. We’re all-in for Podcasting. Hope to see you at the next one!”
Powered in part by SHURE and endorsed by “Mr. Wonderful”, Podstock is an initiative from the New Pod City Podcast Network and is made possible by its parent company, New Pod City.
“PodStock embodied the Podcast Revolution,” says Christina Sasso, co-owner of New Pod City, “A revolutionary event for revolutionary people in a revolutionary town.”
At Podstock, the participant heard from seasoned pros in the Podcast Industry, (including BluBrry's CEO Todd Cochrane, Rob Greenlee, Travis Chappel, and emceed by comedian/podcaster Christine Blackburn), interacted with other podcasters, got familiar with podcasting equipment and learned how to monetize their Podcast.

Mute Your Microphone When You're Not Talking.
You probably have no idea how loud keyboard typing or sneezing or that little radiator in the corner can be until you’re editing your audio. Suddenly in the middle of your guest’s best answer, the audio spikes with keyboard keys clacking or you slurping your Starbucks. Mute it.

Be Yourself
Trust me, the genuine “you” is always going to be better than some radio voice you could put on. Whoever you are, whatever weirds you wins you. If you have a quirky voice or laugh or a really strange sense of humor, do that thing! Be that thing! On a primal level, vulnerability and authenticity build trust because this indicates transparency to us.

Don't Just Follow A Script
It’s tempting to write out a script of questions and stick to it every episode. As soon as they answer, you say, “That’s great,” and move onto the next question on your list. But that is not how you’d have a real conversation! Try listening to the answers your guests give and then react/respond accordingly.
