S3 Ep 48Reviving Print in a Digital Age: GoodTape's Bold Move
bonusIn this special bonus episode of the Honey & Hustle podcast, Dane Cardiel, the founder of GoodTape and a member of the Gumball team shares his perspective on community fractures in podcasting and discusses the importance of innovation in marketing efforts. We recorded this episode at Resonate Podcast Festival, the perfect backdrop for this conversation about podcasting and podcast monetization. We delve into the importance of understanding the depth of audience affinity to a show in the podcast industry. While downloads can indicate the scale of a show, they may not be the best metric for determining the audience's affinity. Advertisers really want to know if an ad campaign effectively reaches the audience and if that audience converts. We raise the question of whether there is a resurgence of physical media, such as vinyl records and cassette tapes, and how this may impact the podcasting industry. This conversation truly highlights the historical overlap between print and audio, and the desire for a separate and tangible media experience. Dane shares how the skills and knowledge gained in newspaper journalism can be applied to audio production and storytelling.

S3 Ep 44Finding Black News Media, from Hayti to Harlem and beyond
When the Carolina Times went out of business in 2020, Cary Wheelous began looking for other Black-owned media outlets. When he was unsuccessful in finding them in one convenient place, he decided to create a space where Black news outlets were aggregated together. The birth of the Hayti app may have started in Durham, but is now home to Black media outlets of all shapes and sizes, from indie to major publications. From written news stories to podcasts, the Hayti app has something for everyone (and a few new upgrades on their roadmap). If you're looking to create an app, Cary also breaks down how we was able to get Hayti off the ground.
