RE: Announcing "PandaCast" - Panda's Official SteemIt Podcast - 3-5x Weekly, Featuring You, Your Stories, & More (& Funded by Our Very Own Loan Shark @Neoxian)
Let's get it rolling bro! I am all on board with this idea!
Thanks for your support man! Glad to know you're on board. Any ideas or suggestions for me?
I think you could do a general Q&A that you keep pretty standard so that the listeners can get a feel for your guest, but then I think it would be best to let each podcast flow into what you and the guest feel is the best direction. Got a cooking blogger on, definitely talking about some recipes, something like that you know. Obviously a cool thing to do as it grows is have the guest maybe pick a few folks that they want to share the spotlight with as well, help them curate on top of your curating. I'll keep thinking of more and more ideas.
Great idea - this is something I need to develop (and would probably change over time as I work out the "kinks" in each episode - but yeah, I definitely want to let each episode sort of flow into a natural conversation - the Q&A would be questions we'd discuss prior to the interview just as a sort of "launchpad" to the discussion - I want my interviewees to feel very natural, the conversations to just feel relaxed and calm - just like I'm hangin' out with a buddy and we're shootin' the shit, you know?
I definitely like the idea of allowing them to "phone a friend" or "tag-team-interview" - that's a pretty awesome idea. Thanks man!
I am so excited with all of the possibilities, and I can't wait to hear from as many people in the community as possible - we all have things we can learn from each other, and my aim is to help pull at least 1+ thing out of each person that others may not know and can benefit from (as long as the person is comfortable sharing, of course). This could also be a platform for someone to come out sort of like I did, about my addiction - I came out on a big Digital Nomad Entrepreneur/tax podcast about my heroin addiction for the first time (conversation just ended up there and I decided to dive into it, never looked back) and it made it one of the best episodes they said they've ever done.
I am really trying to build a potentially large platform for people to speak freely from here!
There is a ton of potential here and I can tell you're going down the right path here. Best thing to do at this point is probably dive in and see what happens. Like you were saying no more just kicking around ideas, time to make those ideas happen. Let me know what I can do to help you out!
True that man - I'm gonna have a lot of fun with this. Just spending the rest of the next few days tying up prior obligations/researching some good portable mics/etc - putting together my basic script and getting a list of people in order - and then it's game time! :D Would love to have you on as one of the early guests if you're interested bro!
I would be honored man! Definitely interested in that. I'm excited for you to have this up an running, there are so my possibilities for you to take this!
Thanks man. I just put up another post about an official launch date (this weekend I plan on posting up my very first interview with @SkinnyThames) and would love to schedule you for an interview - you can either email me or check out the latest post and comment on there expressing your interest.
I've also decided that it's only right if I gave back through this podcast gig - so 50% of all SBD generated from upvotes will be directly donated to a charitable cause/SteemIt member in need each week.
Also, anyone that wishes to sponsor an episode would receive a shoutout on the episode, a link to their work or profile, and 100% of funds generated would be directly donated along with all other proceeds to be donated.

Awesome man. I'm going to shoot you an email now. We'll talk soon for sure!
