Better Podcasting: Live Chat

Hosted ByStephen Jondrew, SP Rupert & Guests

Recording in between seasons of the Better Podcasting main show, Stephen Jondrew & SP Rupert of Better Podcasting, chat live with the audience, taking podcast questions, sharing stories and talking about recent updates in podcasting.

Unlike the main Better Podcasting show, “Better Podcasting: Live Chat” is posted with little editing. While this stream is best consumed through the video-format, we do release these episodes to a special feed called Better Podcasting: Live Chat.
