Q & A with Shaun from ETMF Podcast
When did you start podcasting?
I (Shaun), Derek, and Andre started our podcast in March of this year.
Why did you start podcasting?
We love podcasts! They help us get through the day at our 9–5 jobs and we thought it would be cool to entertain people the same way other shows entertain us.
After a few podcasts talked about how they just started their podcasts because it’s what they wanted we decided to stop talking about it and actually act.
What’s your show about?
In the ETMF Podcast we like to cover an array of topics. Every week we talk about what’s going on in our lives and if we’ve played any video games the past week. But we have also covered TV, movies, music, and things happening in pop culture.
We try to cover what’s hot at the moment.
What’s your podcasting set-up?
We usually record at Derek’s apartment on his Mac using Garage Band and microphones.
We are currently testing recording using Garage band over Google Hangout since we always can’t get to his place when we planned.
How have you promoted your podcast?
We use Facebook the most. We have a page for the show as well as share on our personal pages and friends also share the podcast.
We also use Twitter and tell people we meet about the show and our webpage.
What do you know now that you wish you knew when you started?
We wish we knew all the steps to just get the first show out. We didn’t factor how long it would take to order equipment, get an rss feed, create a webpage, submit to iTunes and Stitcher, and finally get the show recorded.
It’s a much bigger undertaking than we anticipated but it gets much easier as time goes on.
If you want to stay abreast of what’s hot then subscribe to the ETMF Podcast! If you have any feedback or wanna reach out to the guys you can email them at etmfpodcast(at)gmail(dot)com. Also they’ve just started another spin-off sports podcast called According 2 Sources. How cool is that?
