Six stories deep. Let
the podcast thrill ya. Six
stories deep, that's correct. We built this theater that I'm sitting in right now
to do live podcasts for live events. It's Poduty.com
P-O-D-U-T-Y.com and this podcast
specifically supports people who are doing live event
podcasts all over the world. Every week I come to you with about six stories.
I share those links with you in the show notes. You can go to the
website for this podcast is news.p.com
all the links for all these stories
will be in the show notes. Let's go to that first
story tonight. Swipe right on Real Talk.
This comes to us from WGN tv. Are you still
swiping? With no luck, radio star and relationship guru
Kendra G. May have the solution. She's taken her
viral single series to the next level with the Singles
Live app now available on Android and Apple devices.
With millions of viewers turning tuning in for her no nonsense dating
advice, Kendra is proving love might just be one
download away. Now how does this relate to live podcasting? Well, last
week she brought the conversation to the stage. On
July 14, Kendra G. Hosted the live podcast
Taping at the Promontory in Chicago, connecting
singles and sharing stories in real time. If you're tired of the
apps and ready for some unfiltered matchmaking magic,
this event might be your next first date. Very important
lesson here. Businesses who supply services to people
generally have a community of people who are interested in the same thing. So what
Kendra did is she went out and recorded a live podcast,
brought in fans of her app, fans who are single,
looking for relationships, and brought them all together for an event,
connected them for her business through a live podcast event.
So business owners take note. This is one way to monetize
your business. We'll go to our second story
tonight. Another time. Shaq made this podcast. We got Shaq
Vegas and a knockout guest what do you get when you
mix Shaquille o', Neal, Mike Tyson and a room full
of fans in Las Vegas. A wildly entertaining
live taping of the big podcast with Shaq. Of course. This
past Saturday, Shaq and co host Adam Lefkoe brought their
podcast to life at the industrial event space where fans got
an up close experience filled with stories, jokes and
two back to back episodes. Special guest Mike Tyson
kicked things off with colorful tales about boxing, his cannabis
business and life in the spotlight, leaving the crowd
in stitches. The event, which was capped at around 100
attendees, created an intimate vibe despite the star power
on stage. While Tyson got candid about aging and
his gym routines, Shaq lightened things up with the future plans that
include Florida retirement living, minus the caretaking from
his kids. It was a bold, hilarious and unmistakably
Shaq. This is another example of Shaq going out into the world,
into the crowd, connecting with his fans, thinking long term, like what happens
after basketball, after hosting, after commentary, after he's
building this little media empire on the side that he'll be able to go
out for years to come after retirement and just go around,
connect with fans who watched him play, who watched him commentate and
just another way to extend that career.
Our third story tonight, taking it from Vegas to Wall Street.
We got Wall street on stage. The Acquired podcast goes
live with Jamie Diamond Radio City Music
hall turned into the financial world's hottest ticket as the
acquired podcast hosted its annual live show
complete with a special guest, JP Morgan Chase CEO
Jamie Dimon. In an energetic hour long interview,
Dimon broke down the bank's fortress strategy, crediting
interconnected businesses and relentless long term investment for
JP Morgan's edge. While rivals chase short
term games, Dimon says his team looks straightforward through the economic
cycle. And yes, he's teased a secret sauce he
wouldn't spill. But it wasn't all business. Diamond got
personal, sharing that his deepest commitments are to family,
country and his purpose at the bank. Hinting at
the possibility of a future public service role, he left the
crowd buzzing. The evening also featured appearances from
Meredith Cop at Levin, Barry Diller
and high profile guests like Howard Schultz in the audience. For one
night, Wall Street's biggest minds traded the boardroom for the big
stage. And this time you look at the economy, people are maybe it's a little
bit unstable, but here's a way for a bank to have an event with
people, reassure them of what they're doing, their strategies going
forward. Another way for a business to connect with an audience
and showcase their superpowers. What are they doing? Why should
you have confidence in them in the system? We're going from
Mike the Spotlight Turning Podcasts into Live
Events this one comes to us from Route Note Blog, and this is
just an article about live event podcasting. I've been sharing these in our new group
Pittsburgh Podcasters Live on Facebook. If you want to join a group
of local people who are doing live events on this stage,
go over to Facebook Pittsburgh Podcasters Live. I've been sharing stories
like this that I've been finding this one from the Route Note Blog.
Podcasts aren't just or earbuds anymore, they're
hitting the stage. A new guide from Route Note breaks down how
podcasters are turning their shows into dynamic live events,
creating new revenue streams and deeper audience engagement.
Whether it's panel style chats, audience Q&As or full
on multimedia productions, live podcasting opens
up fresh, creative and commercial opportunities. The
article encourages creators to start small, maybe with a free local
venue or a part of an existing event, then scale up
with ticket sales, sponsorships, merchant live streams. It's not just about
the content anymore, it's about creating an experience.
The message is clear if you've got a mic, you've got a stage,
and your audience is ready to show up in person. You've probably
heard me harp about this on the first 15 episodes of this
podcast. This is where podcast is evolving into. If
you're just thinking about staying home and recording an
ad to put into the middle of the show, you're missing out on a tremendous
opportunity to connect with local people, even virtual people. When you
can live stream like you can here at this theater, you're not connecting
on a deeper level. You're only releasing an MP3 file once a week.
These types of events build you an audience, build you a community,
and set you up for long term success. And
if you want to ask me about it, I will show you how an in
person watching your podcast is worth 250
times more than somebody downloading your podcast. I've got the math
and the receipts to prove it. Story number five

404 Media plugs live event
Independent journalism meets underground vibes as 404
Media gears up for its first ever live event on July
30th in Los Angeles. Hosted at the DIY hacker space
Rip Space in the Arts District, the night will kick off
with a live podcast investigating surveillance tech used by
ICE with a hyperlocal focus on tools active in la.
They'll also dive into independent reporting, audience Q and A,
and maybe even a live reveal of an editor's
Instagram algorithm. After the deep dives, the mood
shifts to party mode with free drinks, a set by DJ AV
and plenty of good conversation. Tickets are free for subscribers
and $10 for the general public or just subscribe for
instant access. It's shaping up to be a bold mix of journalism,
tech and nightlife and you're all invited.
Another community example. Setting a stage to interact with
the community, share ideas, talk about journalism. Another
thing to do. I believe it's July. It's on the screen, isn't
it? Oh, July
30th coming up. July 30th. If you're in the LA area, check
it out at Rip Space and our
final podcast story Live Story of the Night. This
is a very interesting story. This is a podcast who Everybody
on the podcast is also a musician. So they put together this
crazy event in Portland. Triple Check leveled up with
a live show that was more than just a podcast. It was
a full blown fan powered celebration. Hosted at
the Alberta Rose Theater, the packed house turned into a community
of joy, games, sax solos and good vibes.
The event was months in the making and marked a major milestone
for the host, especially for one who called it their first big live
show in over a decade. Listeners
can catch the first half of the performance on the public triple click feature
feed while Max Fund members get access to the
full 2 hour experience complete with bonus content.
Behind the scenes magic. It was a big night in the
Rose City, proving once again that podcasting isn't just
for earbuds anymore. It's for the stage, the
spotlight and standing ovations. Just a
really cool spin on what it means to take your podcast live.
In this case, these hosts had other talents and they brought
all those talents to the stage. They played games, you can see they had a
wheel where they were spinning and playing games, singing songs.
It was a packed house. Congratulations to Triple Click Podcast.
