The Battle Against Irrelevancy In Podcasting [S3E70]

I'm afraid of becoming irrelevant to the world of podcasting.  Not outdated. And not even unimportant. Simply irrelevant.  My assumption is that the longer one is in the podcasting game, the more changes to the game have been witnessed, and that feeling of irrelevance or obsolescence starts to build.  Perhaps my own self-evaluation and coming to terms with it might help when those feelings hit you. Or if they’ve hit you already. Upping my game certainly helps. I’ve brought a slew of people-better-than-me into my life in recent years. But the smartest move I’ve made thus far is working closely with https://twitter.com/walkersam?lang=en (Sam Walker) of ex-BBC and currenthttps://whatgoesonmedia.com/portfolio-item/sam-walkers-desert-diaries/ ( Desert Diaries) fame.  Trying out innovative and disruptive forces that impact podcasting helps. Hence my current focus on tools like https://www.descript.com/ (Descript) and https://www.joinclubhouse.com/ (Clubhouse).  Establishing and keeping strong ties with the generation(s) of working podcasters that came after my wave is key. So thank you, https://twitter.com/steph_colbourn?lang=en (Steph) from https://editaud.io/ (Edit Audio) and https://twitter.com/HighFiveRPG (Brian) from https://soundsprofitable.com/ (Sounds Profitable)! Sitting on advisory boards of some podcasting-related companies certainly helps. A big shout out to both https://www.captivate.fm/ (Captivate.fm) and https://maps.fm/ (Maps.fm) for formally asking me to sit on their advisory boards. But even with all of that... I'm still afraid of becoming irrelevant. I’ve never been one to talk much about my feelings, but here we.  If you can, https://www.joinclubhouse.com/event/rM5RaA4m (join me on Clubhouse to talk this out on Friday, Jan 29th at 11:00a )Phoenix time for an actual conversation about how we keep ourselves fresh and current so we keep those feelings of irrelevancy at bay.  ----- Read the full article and share with a friend: https://podcastpontifications.com/episode/the-battle-against-irrelevancy-in-podcasting (https://podcastpontifications.com/episode/the-battle-against-irrelevancy-in-podcasting) https://twitter.com/evoterra (Follow Evo on Twitter) for more podcasting insights as they come. https://buymeacoffee.com/evoterra (Buy him a virtual coffee) to show your support.
