HOST OF LOOKING SIDEWAYS PODCAST

WHY PODCAST?

For the past few years I’ve been posing myself the question: ‘I wonder why there isn’t a decent action sports podcast?’ After a while, rather than keep wondering, I decided to start one myself. After all, I’ve been working in the industry for over twenty years, and in that time have interviewed athletes and written about action sports for everybody from the Times to Transworld Snowboarding.

TIP FOR NEW PODCASTERS

Set a schedule you can keep to. It is a LOT of work running a decent podcast. So don’t commit to an episode a week unless you can really commit to it

Don’t worry about listener numbers. Who cares? If it’s good, people will listen to it. And it’ll only get good by you doing a good number of them. So just do your best and enjoy the process.

INTERESTS OUTSIDE OF PODCASTING

Eating food, reading books, swimming, walking my dog. But really my interests are my topic, which is also really important. Make sure you choose something you have a passion for.
