Each podcast goes through changes, sometimes that includes a name change. We’re looking to change the name of Your Podcast and want your suggestions. You know what this show is about, and the team is certainly open to your thoughts. Luminary recently launched and caused quite a controversy, on day one. We have some pretty strong opinions about their directory and access to content. On a rare occasion Todd and Mike were together to record this episode, this time in the Columbus studio.

From the Blubrry Convo by Design Studio in Columbus Ohio, YP episode 56.

Support:

• Our new ticket system is LIVE! (You won’t notice much, but it should get you faster and more efficient help and service from the support team.)
• Support on social media, again not the fastest way to get help. And in fact our least favorite way to assist.
• It seems people are on the move. If you’re moving AWAY or TO Blubrry, contact us. We are the #1 experts in moving people TO Blubrry and we would be happy to give you advice if you are moving away (expect a bit of “why” questions though.) It’s a lot better if you plan the move rather than just do it and try to fix something later.

Podcast shows aren’t necessarily meant to last forever with new episodes. That’s where archiving an inactive podcast comes in. We explain how to do just that for your show, among other things. Such as, BBC recently removed podcasts from Google. On our side, Blubrry now offers AudioBurst to hosting customers. Mike got his first experience at the Proclaim event last week and is headed to NAB next week. Enjoy this somewhat abbreviated episode of Your Podcast.

News:

• In a somewhat disappointing move, BBC removes podcasts from Google.
• Always expanding, we’ve got a new partner, Audioburst. We could not be more excited to help podcasters get transcriptions and ‘bursts’ of their episodes to post on social media and elsewhere. Plus, it’s free!

Topic:

• Mike attended Proclaim19! last week for the first time.
• NABshow is happening next week in Vegas. Blubrry team will be there and Todd will be on a panel, learn more about it here. You can find us at the Podcast Pavilion in Central Hall. (booth C3033)

• Archiving an inactive show and keeping it online.
  1. To keep it on Blubrry, downgrade to the lowest plan ($12).
  2. Otherwise, and this is ONLY for a show that is not ongoing, use Archive.org (which is what it’s for).
  3. OR, a folder on your website.
     *****Again, not for an ongoing show. Just for inactive shows.*****

Support:

• CHECK YOUR SPAM Our email is still being marked as spam to a lot of Google email accounts (Gmail and G Suite). If you expected a reply, check your spam.
• New ticket system coming soon!
