  Who

  knew
• 5:25
  when
• 5:25
  we
• 5:25
  decided

  develop
• 5:26
  a
• 5:26
  Children's

  Podcast,
• 5:28
  there
• 5:29
  would
• 5:29
  be
• 5:29
  so
• 5:29
  much
• 5:29
  interest
• 5:31
  our

  could
• 5:32
  be
• 5:32
  considered
• 5:32
  a

  niche
• 5:33
  subject.
• 5:34
  Our

  are
• 5:35
  published
• 5:36
  children's

  authors.
• 5:43
  Listeners
• 5:44
  are
• 5:44
  great
• 5:45
  metrics
• 5:46
  in
• 5:46
  terms
• 5:46
  of
• 5:46
  how
• 5:47
  you
• 5:47
  measure
• 5:47
  your
• 5:49
  engagement
• 5:50
  throughout
• 5:50
  the
• 5:50
  world.
• 5:51
  And
• 5:51
  like
• 5:52
  all
• 5:52
  podcast
• 5:53
  shows,
• 5:53
  when
• 5:54
  you
• 5:54
  embark
• 5:54
  on
• 5:54
  your
• 5:55
  podcasting
• 5:56
  journey,
• 5:57
  you
• 5:57
  are
• 5:57
  unsure
• 5:58
  whether
• 5:58
  you
• 5:58
  will
• 5:59
  find
• 5:59
  an
• 5:59
  audience.
• 6:01
  However,
• 6:02
  we
• 6:02
  needed
• 6:02
  guests
• 6:03
  and
• 6:04
  we
• 6:04
  had
• 6:04
  no
• 6:04
  idea
• 6:05
  how
• 6:05
  to
• 6:05
  attract
• 6:06
  engaging
• 6:06
  published
• 6:07
  children's
• 6:07
  book
• 6:08
  authors,
• 6:09
  what
• 6:09
  the
• 6:09
  interview
• 6:10
  process
• 6:10
  would
• 6:11
  entail,
• 6:11
  which
• 6:11
  questions
• 6:12
  to
• 6:12
  ask.
• 6:13
  Our
• 6:13
  goal
• 6:14
  was
• 6:14
  to
• 6:14
  interview
• 6:15
  doers
• 6:16
  publish
• 6:17
  children's
• 6:17
  book
• 6:18
  authors
• 6:18
  who
• 6:18
  not
• 6:19
  only
• 6:19
  wanted
• 6:19
  to
• 6:19
  share
• 6:20
  their
• 6:20
  children's
• 6:20
  book
• 6:21
  and
• 6:21
  attract
• 6:22
  more
• 6:22
  children's
• 6:23
  readers,
• 6:23
  but
• 6:24
  also
• 6:24
  to
• 6:24
  share
• 6:25
  their
• 6:25
  story
• 6:25
  with
• 6:26
  behind
• 6:26
  the
• 6:26
  Story
• 6:27
  to
• 6:27
  motivate
• 6:28
  aspiring
• 6:28
  children's
• 6:29
  book
• 6:29
  authors
• 6:30
  to
• 6:30
  take
• 6:30
  action.
• 6:31
  A
• 6:32
  journey
• 6:32
  of
• 6:32
  a
• 6:33
  thousand
• 6:33
  miles
• 6:33
  begins
• 6:34
  with
• 6:34
  a
• 6:34
  single
• 6:35
  step
• 6:35
  is
• 6:35
  a
• 6:36
  Chinese
• 6:36
  proverb.
• 6:37
  We
• 6:38
  took
• 6:38
  our
• 6:38
  first
• 6:38
  step
• 6:39
  into
• 6:39
  podcasting
• 6:40
  in
• 6:40
  2024
• 6:41
  and
• 6:42
  decided
• 6:42
  to
• 6:42
  publish
• 6:43
  one
• 6:43
  episode
• 6:44
  per
• 6:45

• 6:45
  for
• 6:45
  a
• 6:46
  total
• 6:46
  of
• 6:46
  12.
• 6:47
  We
• 6:48
  came
• 6:48
  up
• 6:48
  two
• 6:49
  episodes
• 6:49
  short.

  concluded
• 7:09
  that
• 7:09
  this
• 7:09
  indicates
• 7:10
  that
• 7:10
  many
• 7:11
  podcasters
• 7:12

• 7:13
  early

• 7:15
  Late
• 7:15
  in

  2024,
• 7:17
  we
• 7:17
  set
• 7:17
  our
• 7:18
  goal
• 7:18
  for
• 7:18
  2025.

  straight.
• 7:25
  And
• 7:25
  as
• 7:26
  mentioned,
• 7:26
  by

  the
• 7:27
  time
• 7:27
  2025
• 7:28
  comes
• 7:29
  to
• 7:29
  an
• 7:29
  end,
• 7:29
  we
• 7:30
  all
• 7:30
  have
• 7:30
  accomplished
• 7:31
  this
• 7:31
  rewarding
• 7:32
  goal,
• 7:33
  totaling
• 7:34
  52
• 7:34
  episodes.
• 7:36
  How
• 7:36
  did
• 7:36
  we
• 7:37
  go
• 7:37
  from
• 7:38
  10
• 7:38
  episodes
• 7:39
  in
• 7:39
  2024
• 7:40
  to
• 7:40
  52
• 7:41
  episodes
• 7:42
  in
• 7:42
  2025?
• 7:43
  What
• 7:44
  are
• 7:44
  the
• 7:44
  secret
• 7:44
  ingredients
• 7:45
  to

  success?
• 7:49
  Drum

  roll
• 7:50
  please.
• 7:51
  Number
• 7:52
  one.
• 7:53
  Pure
• 7:53
  naivete.
• 7:54
  We
• 7:55
  didn't
• 7:55
  know
• 7:55
  how
• 7:55
  we
• 7:56
  were
• 7:56
  going
• 7:56
  to
• 7:56
  do
• 7:56
  it,
• 7:56
  but
• 7:57
  we
• 7:57
  felt
• 7:57
  we
• 7:57
  were
• 7:57
  building
• 7:58
  some
• 7:58
  confidence,
• 7:59
  experience,
• 8:00
  and
• 8:00
  something
• 8:01
  we
• 8:01
  had
• 8:01
  no
• 8:02
  idea
• 8:02
  was
• 8:02
  going
• 8:03
  to
• 8:03
  happen.
• 8:03
  The
• 8:04
  second
• 8:05
  secret
• 8:05
  ingredient
• 8:06
  is
• 8:07
  our
• 8:07
  guess.
• 8:07
  You
• 8:08
  might
• 8:08
  be
• 8:08
  saying,
• 8:09
  thanks,
• 8:09
  Captain
• 8:10
  Obvious,
• 8:11
  but
• 8:11
  how
• 8:11
  did
• 8:12
  you
• 8:12
  ever
• 8:12
  get
• 8:12
  enough
• 8:13
  guests
• 8:14
  to
• 8:14
  publish
• 8:14
  a
• 8:14
  weekly
• 8:15
  show?
• 8:15
  2025
• 8:16
  has
• 8:17
  been
• 8:17
  a
• 8:17
  year
• 8:17
  in
• 8:17
  the
• 8:17
  making.
• 8:18
  If
• 8:18
  you
• 8:19
  listen
• 8:19
  to
• 8:20
  our
• 8:20
  first
• 8:20
  nine
• 8:21
  episodes,
• 8:22
  you
• 8:22
  will
• 8:22
  notice
• 8:22
  we
• 8:23
  used
• 8:23
  two
• 8:23
  techniques,
• 8:24
  one
• 8:24
  as
• 8:25
  a
• 8:25
  solo
• 8:25
  podcast
• 8:27
  and
• 8:27
  second,
• 8:28
  we
• 8:29
  had
• 8:29
  four
• 8:29
  episodes
• 8:30
  in
• 8:30
  which
• 8:30
  we
• 8:31
  interviewed
• 8:31
  our
• 8:32
  grandchildren
• 8:33
  who
• 8:33
  are
• 8:34
  co
• 8:34
  authors
• 8:35
  in
• 8:35
  our
• 8:35
  children's
• 8:36
  book
• 8:36
  series
• 8:36
  the
• 8:37
  Adventures
• 8:37
  of
• 8:37
  Caboose
• 8:38
  the
• 8:38
  Rocky
• 8:38
  Mountain
• 8:39
  Bear.
• 8:40
  Doing
• 8:40
  these
• 8:41
  nine
• 8:41
  episodes,
• 8:41
  as
• 8:42
  mentioned,
• 8:42
  gave
• 8:43
  us
• 8:43
  the
• 8:43
  experience
• 8:43
  and
• 8:44
  confidence
• 8:44
  to
• 8:45
  keep
• 8:45
  moving
• 8:45
  forward.
• 8:46
  However,
• 8:47
  the
• 8:47
  real
• 8:48
  confidence
• 8:48
  booster
• 8:49
  came
• 8:49
  when,
• 8:50
  out
• 8:50
  of
• 8:50
  the
• 8:50
  blue,
• 8:51
  I
• 8:51
  had
• 8:51
  two
• 8:52
  children's
• 8:52
  book
• 8:53
  authors
• 8:53
  and
• 8:53
  one
• 8:54
  author's
• 8:55
  public
• 8:55
  relations
• 8:56
  person
• 8:57
  reach
• 8:57
  out
• 8:58
  to
• 8:58
  ask
• 8:59
  could
• 8:59
  they
• 8:59
  be
• 9:00
  guests
• 9:00
  on
• 9:01
  our
• 9:01
  podcast
• 9:01
  show?
• 9:02
  If
• 9:03
  the
• 9:03
  average
• 9:03
  podcaster
• 9:04
  quits
• 9:04
  after
• 9:05
  three
• 9:05
  episodes,
• 9:06
  and
• 9:06
  here
• 9:06
  we
• 9:07
  were
• 9:07
  with
• 9:07
  three
• 9:07
  times
• 9:08
  that
• 9:08
  many
• 9:09
  in
• 9:09
  2024,
• 9:11
  that
• 9:11
  would
• 9:11
  prove
• 9:12
  to
• 9:12
  be
• 9:13
  a
• 9:13
  way
• 9:14
  to
• 9:14
  attract
• 9:15
  more
• 9:15
  guests.
• 9:16
  It's
• 9:16
  like
• 9:17
  striking
• 9:17
  podcast
• 9:18
  gold
• 9:19
  and
• 9:19
  we
• 9:19
  had
• 9:20
  no
• 9:20
  idea
• 9:21
  we
• 9:21
  use
• 9:21
  an
• 9:21
  incredible
• 9:22
  podcasting
• 9:23
  platform
• 9:24
  service
• 9:24
  Captivate
• 9:25
  fm.
• 9:26
  They
• 9:26
  not
• 9:27
  only
• 9:27
  made
• 9:27
  it
• 9:27
  easy
• 9:28
  for
• 9:28
  us
• 9:28
  to
• 9:28
  create
• 9:29
  and
• 9:29
  publish
• 9:29
  podcast
• 9:30
  episodes,
• 9:31
  but
• 9:31
  they
• 9:31
  also
• 9:32
  provided
• 9:32
  the
• 9:33
  booking
• 9:33
  infrastructure
• 9:34
  to
• 9:34
  create
• 9:35
  a
• 9:35
  booking
• 9:35
  link
• 9:36
  and
• 9:36
  get
• 9:36
  started.
• 9:37
  And
• 9:38
  even
• 9:38
  though
• 9:38
  our
• 9:39
  podcast
• 9:39
  shows
• 9:40
  our
• 9:40
  audio
• 9:40
  only,
• 9:41
  we
• 9:42
  do
• 9:42
  tape
• 9:42
  the

  podcast
• 9:43
  interviews
• 9:44
  in
• 9:44
  Zoom
• 9:45
  video
• 9:46
  and
• 9:46
  through
• 9:46
  the
• 9:47
  magic
• 9:47
  of
• 9:47
  zoom,
• 9:47
  it
• 9:48
  separates
• 9:48
  the
• 9:49
  audio
• 9:49
  files
• 9:49
  for
• 9:50
  us.
• 9:51
  Will
• 9:51
  we
• 9:51
  ever
• 9:51
  use
• 9:52
  the
• 9:52
  video?
• 9:53
  We've
• 9:53
  learned
• 9:54
  never
• 9:54
  to
• 9:54
  say
• 9:54
  never,
• 9:55
  but
• 9:56
  it
• 9:56
  is
• 9:56
  not
• 9:56
  a
• 9:57
  pursuit
• 9:57
  we
• 9:57
  are
• 9:57
  interested
• 9:58
  in

  at

  this

  point.

  If

  weren't
