I didn't quote anyone in my post so what conversation was I part of?
The conversation that consisted of the latter part of this thread. Were you simply butting in to change the subject?
Quote:
My first post mentioned barn burner and boomer only. Again, you were wrong and arguing for the sake of arguing which you're good at.
So explain to me why the salary of a Home Depot manager is relevant to anything. I'm still waiting on that one.

I have a friend who left a radio job for podcasting. I wish we weren't having drinks when I asked about the new job so I can remember details but the long and short of it is more money.
You're not allowed to talk about radio here. ZM has made it clear this thread is about podcasts only.

No my post was only about podcasts and boomer and barn burner. You can talk about anything you want.
Unless I quote you in my post, in which case I'm not allowed, apparently.

It's cute when you're wrong in another thread about Kylington
No, I disagreed with you about Kylington, as did everyone else participating except Dion.
Which banned poster are you again, and how many times have you been banned before? Because you certainly seem to be sucking around for another ban.

I think there was a bit of a podcast bubble that burst last year but it's still an extremely popular form of content. CliffFletcher might be cute but he's out of touch.

Who cares what they make? It is one of the best things Calgary Flames over the last few years.
They have the perfect chemistry between the 3. And all of the guest appearances are great for the most part. You have to be a pretty negative person to crap on any part of Barn Burner.
Well said, Rhettro

It’s an extremely popular form of content (I’m subscribed to about 20 podcasts). There are loads and loads of people creating loads and loads of podcasts - hundreds of podcasters in Calgary alone. But very few of them make real money for the creators.
Strange Brew made a post that seems to have been ignored where he pointed out he knew someone who had a legit branded sports podcast in a bigger market than Calgary and he didn’t earn anything close to a full-time income from it.
That is what the digital age of media is: the low barrier to entry means huge amounts of content being generated by large numbers of creators, with very, very few of those creators making much money because the market is so fragmented, and because listeners/viewers like us don’t pay anything. This is true of podcasts, music on Spotify, Youtube, etc. It’s far easier to get into media creation than it was 20 years ago, but far harder to earn a living from it.
A friend of mine has taught journalism at SAIT, focusing on digital media. He tells his students not to expect to earn a living from their work unless they cobble together 3-5 different gigs. That’s the reality today. Digital media has made the field less lucrative, not more.
And none of this is a criticism of the Barnburner guys. I enjoy their content. Just like I enjoy the content of the other 20 or so podcasts I’m subscribed to created by people doing it as a side-gig or passion project.
