Howdy Reader! If you hosted a meetup and ten people came, would you call it a win? Most of us wouldn't. DJ Strick would. "10 people in the room is a big deal," he says. Strick spent 13 years on the radio in Birmingham. Now he's building that city's podcast scene, one small room at a time. He started the Birmingham Podcasters Collective, put on a Podcast Summit at Innovation Depot, and hosts a weekly show about the people moving Birmingham forward. Today we're sitting down with Strick, who also hosts The Stream Show with Ecamm, to talk about taking your podcast offline. We're exploring: → Why a small room can beat a big feed Come watch live and put your questions in the chat. Join us live TODAY, Friday, October 2 at 10 AM Central See ya there! P.S. Strick hosts The Stream Show with Ecamm, and Ecamm is what we use to make this show every week.

Now, every Friday, her company books her as the client. The project gets shot, edited, and published that same day, or...
Howdy Reader! Truth time... This one's going to be short. (I know. You're devastated.) I'm getting ready to speak at Ecamm's Creator Camp, and right after that I head to Momentum. That's two stages back-to-back, so my life right now is slide decks, clicker tests, and rehearsing out loud to an empty office like a man who lost an argument with his imaginary AI friend. So this time YOU do the talking. You've sat through more presentations than you can count (conferences, webinars, that one...
Howdy Reader! Kirk Nugent tried to buy kirknugent.com and couldn't. Another Kirk Nugent, a poet and speaker, already owned it. So Kirk added his middle initial, took a nickname nobody else has, the Geek Speaker Preacher, and started deciding for himself what shows up when people search for him. Most of us have never looked.
