As a podcast consultant, I’ve trained tens of thousands of people on how to successfully launch their show and build a profitable business around their expertise. Podcast Answer Man is where I share what actually works in podcasting after two decades of experience. It’s a place for thoughtful creators who use podcasting as a tool for building something meaningful with their voice. In each episode, I explore the decisions behind a podcast that grows trust, attracts the right audience, and supports a real business. I cover tools and workflows when they matter. More importantly, I focus on clarity, positioning, consistency, and the long-term thinking required to make a podcast worth creating. If you’re looking for quick hacks, this probably isn’t your show. If you want a clear signal in a noisy industry, you’re in the right place.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-26T14:17:28.392621+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/podcast-answer-man-4254375"},"episode":{"title":"485 - An In-Depth, Thoughtful Defense of Why RSS Still Matters","slug":"485-an-in-depth-thoughtful-defense-of-why-rss-still-matters","published_at":"2026-02-13T05:01:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/podcast-answer-man-4254375/485-an-in-depth-thoughtful-defense-of-why-rss-still-matters","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/podcast-answer-man-4254375","url":"https://www.cliffravenscraft.com/podcasts/podcast-answer-man/episodes/2149166083","audio_url":"https://app.kajabi.com/podcasts/medias/2149166083.mp3","summary":"In this episode, I share a conversation that was recorded at the Cincinnati Podcast Studio with Brian Erickson . I originally invited Brian to join me for an episode of my What Are You Creating? podcast, which I typically produce as an audio-only show. Since Brian runs a studio devoted to high-quality video podcast production, he invited me to come to the studio and record the conversation there. What took place was a very unscripted conversation that began as an interview, but it naturally became a genuine exchange between two podcast professionals exploring how we each think about content creation. Where it’s been. Where it is now. And where it might be headed. At one point, Brian asks me to share my perspective on what makes content a \"show\" vs. a \"podcast.\"   That is the part of the conversation that I have included in this episode of Podcast Answer Man.
