Your Mic Podcast: Freddy Cruz
Twenty years ago, podcasting was the infant and over-the-air radio was the parent. That relationship has gradually morphed over the last two decades. The sharpest of the radio personalities recognized that podcasting could offer them new opportunities for recognition, success, and the satisfaction of their entrepreneurial spirit.

Becoming Self Made Podcast
We fetishize success in the U.S. industries, which have grown up promoting strategies for success. Books, classes, instructional and inspirational videos, gadgets, systems, and even podcasts all promote the avenues to success. I must confess that I am conflicted by podcasts that promote success.

Echoes In The First Person Podcast

History And Factoids About Today Podcast
History and Factoids About Today is a daily podcast about all the interesting and historical events of that day, birthdays, national days, fun facts, and trivia. Producing a podcast every day is the Mount Everest of podcasting. A terrific show like Arielle & Ned’s Daily Tips… also accomplishes that Herculean task, yet episodes are about two minutes in length. On History and Factoids About Today, 12 minutes seems to be the average length. Incredible.

The Groove Radio Unplugged
Not many were around during the OG times of podcasting. A recent survey found that 90% of current podcast fans began listening in the last five years. Today, podcasters and listeners grumble about too many podcasts. I remember (NOTE: This is much like the “I walked 20 miles to school in the snow” type story) when it was a struggle to find enough podcasts to listen to.

Uncovering Roots Podcast: The Tragedy Of War
Uncovering Roots made an impact in December 2023 with its three-part series about the Armenian Genocide of 1915 and beyond by the Ottoman Empire (modern-day Turkey). In those two years of the genocide, over 1.2 million Armenians were sent on death marches to the Syrian Desert. In addition, about 200,000 Armenian women and children were forcibly converted to Islam and integrated into Muslim households.
