Book Launch Special: Join the Video Podcast Revolution!

We Make It Easy for You

Video podcasting is the hottest content format for good reason: it’s a powerful medium for connecting with and growing your audience, sharing your message and informing and/or entertaining people on the most popular platforms.

It’s also a great engine for building your brand and business without much selling. Video podcasters are expanding their professional networks and growing their influence through long-form dialogue with industry leaders.

Viewers Can't Get Enough

As the host, you enable your viewers to hang out with you and your guests in a more natural setting and have conversations that go deeper than you can with micro-content and other types of produced videos.

If you’ve ever thought about starting a video podcast or leveling up your existing show, we have a brand new book for you.

In Video Podcasting Made Easy, Kevin Kolbe and I show you that video doesn’t have to be difficult, scary or expensive. We take you step-by-step from selecting the gear and setting up your home studio to editing, producing and promoting your video podcast.

We both started our careers as radio personalities and, along the way, integrated video — Kevin as a creative director in television and then as a YouTube creator and me with live streaming talk shows and events. It’s a polite way of saying we’ve been around for a while and our insights are shaped both by our experiences as professionals in broadcast media and as digital creators with thousands of hours hosting and producing content for online platforms.

Why does this matter to you?

• Get inside the minds of seasoned creators: Learn from the same discussions that shaped our approach to video podcasting.
• Access actionable strategies: We’ve distilled our conversations into practical tips you can use immediately—no fluff, just real-world advice.
• Feel like part of the conversation: The book’s unique format makes you feel like you’re right there with us, learning in real-time.

Podfest Multimedia Expo founder Chris Krimitsos wrote in the book's foreword, “The future of podcasting is intertwined with video.”

The best part is that if you’re thinking (even just a little bit) about joining the video podcast revolution, the Kindle ebook is only 99 cents for a limited time.

As the back cover says, “Get your copy today and start creating compelling video content that stands out!”
