Previous Episode: Now and Zencastr

Episode #050

We experiment with the shortcast format by speedpodding the show!

What did we learn?

Tim talks about how 3-minutes or less podcasts are not worth it for 90 percent of niches

Kyle talks about who benefits from the 3-minute format and how it could work for your niche

Yup! Tim and Kyle do not agree on speedpodding. It happens, folks!

Podwrecked secretly celebrates a milestone by reaching episode #50
