Podcasting is SELF TALK?
I am Always Listening. My name is Joel Sharpton, I’m a podcast consultant and editor & I have been since January of 2016. Welcome to the latest iteration of Always Listening, a podcast ABOUT Podcasting.
We’re going to have some interviews & if you look in the feed for this podcast you’ll find three bonus episodes that ARE existing interviews with Tyler Mahan Coe, Cameron Reilly and Jay Soderberg, tremendous podcasters & pioneers in one way or another that I was lucky enough to talk with on a previous iteration of this show. More of that to come.
But sometimes, it’s gonna be like this. Just me, talking about content creation, philosophy and my philosophy of content creation. :)
Podcasting is an incredibly powerful medium because it’s an opt-in medium. People don’t stumble on your show accidentally. No one is forced to listen to your podcast in the lobby of a mechanic or doctor office. They CHOOSE you.
My first show was more than anything, an excuse to spend time weekly with a friend. For this show, it’s about sharing my own joy in creation and learning from those who enjoy their own creation experience. We’re gonna talk about stats and software. We’re gonna talk about mics and media hosts. But MOSTLY, we’re gonna talk about podcasts. Why we love them, what they’ve done for us, and what we’ve done through them.
If that sounds up your alley, then make sure you FOLLOW the show in your preferred app, or SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube channel to get more of it, it’ll be a lot more fun if you folks are along for the ride, but I’m probably gonna do it even if I’m just talking to myself.
Remember, I’m Joel Sharpton, and I’m always listening.

Always Listening to Jay “PodVader” Soderberg, Sports Podcast Pioneer
Originally recorded as part of season three of Always Listening, presented here as part of my attempt to restart the show with sporadic interviews from great creators using podcasting as their primary medium.
Jay Soderberg is THE reason that ESPN has a podcasting empire. That may be a simplification, but he’s the cog that held it all together in the early days for Mothership as they made their first steps into the world of Podcasting. Since then, he’s been an exec at a FEW different major Podcasting outlets & continues to be an inspiration to independent podcasters everywhere. He’s also a cool guy and a friend of mine.
This is a great chat. I liked it so much I hosted a weekly show with the guy for a couple years!

Always Listening to Cameron Reilly, Australian Podcast Pioneer
Originally recorded as part of season three of Always Listening, presented here as part of my attempt to restart the show with sporadic interviews from great creators using podcasting as their primary medium.
Cameron Reilly was one of the first podcasters that I fell in love with AS a podcaster, breaking through the celebrities and sports figures that I'd listened to in my own early days consuming podcasts. Cam is brilliant, passionate and he's been podcasting since we still weren't sure what to call it.
This is a great chat.

Always Listening to Cocaine & Rhinestones with Tyler Mahan Coe
Originally recorded as part of season three of Always Listening, presented here as part of my attempt to restart the show with sporadic interviews from great creators using podcasting as their primary medium.
Tyler is one of my favorite podcasters and storytellers and he’s telling the story of country music in the 20th century (and the lives of the people who brought it to us).
It’s a story he was probably born to tell.
