Cara PacettiGuestWell, I think this is so perfect to have you on for this episode, because I know that we've had recent interactions with podcasters.
If you subscribe to the Buzzsprout newsletter, you will have seen a creator spotlight about Tiger Talk.
We talked about them, I don't know, like, six months ago or something like that.
And so I kinda wanna talk about how podcasts will grow the people who are creating the podcast, 'cause we always talk about, like, how to grow the show, how to grow your audience.
But let's talk about how podcasting can grow you as a person, and I have pulled some examples that range from childhood, like, early childhood, into, like, young adult life, because I really feel like these are the most for- I mean, they are the most formative years of your life, and, like, maybe podcasting can really contribute to that.
Um, so like I said, I had done a creator profile on them, talking about how these students, um, started the podcast.
And it was really cool, because I talked to their teacher, and I thought that the teacher had some sort of, like, uh, you know, hands in on the podcast, 'cause you would assume that an adult would be the one, like, you know, really driving it, and the kids would be on the microphone and stuff.
And it was so cool, because when I did the interview with you, with her, she didn't know how to work the Rodecaster or set up the microphone.
