LA Times, Podcast Guest; Final Thoughts on Portable Media Expo
A great event for sure, especially for the first year. Big kudos to founder Tim Bourquin and all of his staff.
I would expect that this will grow quite a bit for next year as well as have plenty of other businesses and media suits checking it out.
Some of the highlights:
- The 2 themes of the event were "Passion" and "Content" (Attention! The majority of podcasters understand both of these!)
- Meeting podcasting friends face to face (too many to list, but you can check out the photos to see just a few)
- The Thursday night "unofficial launch party" featuring Brother Love and Chance
- All of the panels, especially the "monetizing" ones. FYI, no one quite has this figured out, but expect a number of podcast "networks" in the next few months. Note: there will be plenty of these netorks that fail as competition for talent and dollars begins
The LA Times printed an article about the panel I moderated. Check it out here.
Also, I was a guest on my brother's podcast over the weekend discussing the Expo. You can download the interview here (.mp3, 33 minutes, 40 seconds).

I wholeheartedly 100% agree. I could not have said it any better
