I'm the owner of the Poduty Live podcast 15 00:01:05,020 --> 00:01:08,340 theater, the world's first live podcast theater. 16 00:01:08,420 --> 00:01:11,700 And we put this podcast together just to 17 00:01:12,100 --> 00:01:15,780 show different live events happening around the world with the 18 00:01:16,100 --> 00:01:19,860 hopes that you want to come to our theater and watch some live podcasts, 19 00:01:19,860 --> 00:01:23,540 some live events. We do a lot of things happening. Let's go 20 00:01:28,060 --> 00:01:31,260 to that first story. We're going live from the final frontier. 21 00:01:32,380 --> 00:01:36,140 This was brought to us by space.com and 22 00:01:36,140 --> 00:01:39,660 episode 166 of this Week in Space Touchdown 23 00:01:39,740 --> 00:01:42,980 Live at the International Space Development Conference in 24 00:01:42,980 --> 00:01:46,420 Orlando, where hosts Rod Pyle and Tariq 25 00:01:46,420 --> 00:01:49,660 Malik covered everything from starship explosions 26 00:01:50,150 --> 00:01:53,990 to dark matter mysteries. The duo also answered listener 27 00:01:53,990 --> 00:01:57,390 questions about astronaut comms, space camp, memoir, 28 00:01:57,390 --> 00:02:00,790 memories, and the future of human exploration beyond 29 00:02:00,790 --> 00:02:04,590 Earth. As editors of AD, Astra 30 00:02:04,590 --> 00:02:07,990 and Space.com Pyle and Malik continue to make 31 00:02:07,990 --> 00:02:11,830 cosmic conversations accessible and fun, reminding us that 32 00:02:11,830 --> 00:02:15,470 all the universe isn't just out there. It's 33 00:02:15,470 --> 00:02:19,270 happening right now, right here at the conference, doing a live 34 00:02:19,270 --> 00:02:22,880 show. One of the things we stress is you think outside of the 35 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,720 box. Where can you do your podcast? If you're in a niche and that 36 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,480 niche has conferences or meetups, chances are you can go 37 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,880 to those places and record an episode of your podcast. 38 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,520 Our second story, brought to us by Belive. Cash me on 39 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,320 the camera, cash me outside. How about that?

From donations and tipping features to paid 43 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,280 shoutouts, affiliate links and exclusive content the 44 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:02,079 blog breaks down actionable ways for you to turn your audience into 45 00:03:02,079 --> 00:03:05,840 income.

So every stream has the potential to pay off. Now, 48 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,840 live streams are something we talk a lot about at the theater here, and 49 00:03:16,920 --> 00:03:20,440 streaming live and making money is just one way to do things. 50 00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:24,200 We also think when you do a live show in front of a live audience, 51 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,040 the returns can be as much as 250 times greater 52 00:03:28,439 --> 00:03:32,280 than if you were just doing a digital version of your show. So think 53 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,120 outside the box again. You can sell sponsorships to live events. 54 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,250 You can put up banners, you can sell the tickets, you can 55 00:03:40,250 --> 00:03:43,930 sell merchandise. You can sell bonus events or special 56 00:03:43,930 --> 00:03:47,530 occasion meet and greets after the show. There's a lot of ways to 57 00:03:47,530 --> 00:03:51,170 monetize not just live streaming, but live in real 58 00:03:51,170 --> 00:03:54,450 life. So take a look at these. These are some great tips from belive. You 59 00:03:54,450 --> 00:03:58,090 can apply these to a live show and to a real live 60 00:03:58,090 --> 00:04:00,530 show in front of people, in front of a live audience. 61 00:04:02,290 --> 00:04:06,100 Let's go to our third story tonight. This comes 62 00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:09,140 to us from inside radio and this just in. 63 00:04:11,220 --> 00:04:14,820 Podcast go prime time. Following the U. S. Military 64 00:04:14,820 --> 00:04:18,140 strike on Iran, political podcasts like the rest is 65 00:04:18,140 --> 00:04:21,380 politics and the rest is politics, US 66 00:04:21,860 --> 00:04:25,500 responded in real time, broadcasting live to 67 00:04:25,500 --> 00:04:29,260 millions across YouTube and podcast platforms. With 68 00:04:29,260 --> 00:04:32,820 over 50,000 live viewers and 1.8 million 69 00:04:32,900 --> 00:04:36,570 total plays in under 24 hours, the lines 70 00:04:36,570 --> 00:04:40,170 between live news broadcasts and podcasts continue to get 71 00:04:40,170 --> 00:04:43,970 blurred. Viewership on televisions made up nearly a quarter 72 00:04:43,970 --> 00:04:47,810 of all streams, showing that audiences now turn to podcasts 73 00:04:47,810 --> 00:04:51,210 for both breaking news and on demand analysis. 74 00:04:51,850 --> 00:04:55,290 As creators push for the return of Spotify live and other streaming 75 00:04:55,290 --> 00:04:58,690 tools, the future of podcasting might look more like 76 00:04:58,690 --> 00:05:02,460 primetime than ever before. Now this gets into that 77 00:05:02,460 --> 00:05:06,020 gray area of what is a podcast? Is a live stream a podcast? 78 00:05:06,340 --> 00:05:09,340 A lot of us will say it is if you take that audio and then 79 00:05:09,340 --> 00:05:13,100 release it as a podcast. So another way to take a 80 00:05:13,100 --> 00:05:16,420 live event live current events and 81 00:05:16,420 --> 00:05:19,980 capitalize on them, especially if you're in the news industry, especially if 82 00:05:19,980 --> 00:05:23,740 you're delivering real time information. If you can live stream that, 83 00:05:23,740 --> 00:05:27,550 record it, and then release it as your podcast, you're just, you're knocking 84 00:05:27,550 --> 00:05:29,070 off two birds with one stone. 85 00:05:31,150 --> 00:05:34,830 Our fourth story tonight comes to us from CBS 86 00:05:34,830 --> 00:05:38,590 Austin.
