The Global Podcast Editors newsletter
…is a space where we share heaps of podcast editing business and technical conversations about podcast editing for clients.
Mondays are business-oriented AND Thursdays are tech-focused.

Hi Wavie,
Well, tomorrow is a week in Bucharest. We’ve eaten our weight in amazing soup, been to every grocery store on our street (there are SO many), joined a gym with a sauna (pure joy), and worked far too much on top of all that. I’m exhausted, to be honest.
With that in mind and the fact that Thursday is a regular Tech Tech Thursday issue, should I not fall over by then, this one’s going to be brief.
Let’s do this!

Upcoming Collaborations
On September 29th we’re teaming up with Carrie from Just Busters to do a lead-up to International Podcast Day (the following day). Six or so editors shared their experiences live online in a nearly 2-hour session of pure editing joy. We’re no longer taking submissions for the event but we’d love to have you in the chat room with us during the event. Ask questions, comment, chat with other folks. WATCH IT LIVE HERE.
Then on October 20th, we’re doing another live collaboration, this time with Podbean. Norma Jean from Podbean is leading a panel of GPE editors (Fay Fay, Puneeth, David, and I asking questions about how we got started, the biggest technical and business challenges, our advice to indy podcasters wanting to transition into the space, and more. Get your FREE tickets to the live event here.

☕ Business Espresso Shot: Get out of your podcast bubble
It’s important to spend time online in spaces that are NOT podcast-related. Not entirely. Not talking about podcasting anyway. I know it’s weird to say this in a newsletter about podcast editing but it’s true.
Your podcasting silo can slow down your client attraction strategy!
Every once in a while I guest host an episode of The Vocab Man podcast. I’m not a man, true, but Daniel the regular host is, lol. I taught the English language (not literature) to adults for over 15 years abroad. And I love talking about language. So it’s a fun guest spot to do. Especially this recent episode on explaining what heebie-jeebies means.
And it gives me a space to be language geeky with an audience that probably knows very little about podcasting as an industry.
Where do you spend time that’s not talking about making podcasts space?
If you answered, nowhere. This is a good time to go turn your hobbies into genuine connection spaces. But don’t sell. Just be you. And have your profile link ready for when people want to know more.
