Pod help me, I’m doing all three shows

Thanks for taking the podcast survey! The results are in, and there’s solid interest in all three proposed shows. So starting Jan 1, I’ll be producing episodes for three podcasts every week — How Music Does That, Raising Freethinkers, and The Lucky Ones.

How Music is already 10 episodes in, so you can find that on iTunes, Spotify, etc. The others will need 3 episodes each to propagate to those services. So to goose the process, here’s one more preview of Raising Freethinkers for the holidays.

Thanks for listening!

Music, Secular Parenting, Mortality – Which of These Podcasts Would You Listen To?

In September, I launched a podcast about music to support a book proposal on the topic. But something unexpected happened: within a few weeks, the podcast overtook the book for me. It’s the perfect way to talk about music. But I also fell hard for the medium in general, especially in a storytelling mode, and creating and publishing continuously is SO much more satisfying than the two-year timeline of the average book from proposal to print.

So I want podcasting at the center of my creative work for the coming year. HOW MUSIC DOES THAT is now 10 episodes in, and I’ve recorded pilots for two new shows: RAISING FREETHINKERS, about raising kids without religion, and THE LUCKY ONES, about an aging atheist’s complicated relationship with death (humor and philosophy). Now I need to know which of the three shows are worth continuing.

If you can take a bite of the three episodes below, then complete the survey, that’ll help me decide whether to re-launch in January with 1, 2, or 3 shows. Thanks for your help! – Dale

Where Should I Put My Energy in 2019?

In September, I launched a podcast about music to support a proposed book on the topic. But something unexpected happened: within a few weeks, the podcast overtook the book for me. It’s the perfect way to talk about music. But I also fell hard for the medium in general, especially in a storytelling mode. And creating and publishing continuously is so much more satisfying than the two-year timeline of the average book, proposal to print.

So I want podcasting at the center of my creative work right now. And if I could move continually among my three favorite topics — music, secular parenting, and mortality — that’d be ideal. So I put the music podcast on hiatus to design and record pilots for two more shows: RAISING FREETHINKERS (raising kids without religion) and THE LUCKY ONES (an aging atheist’s complicated relationship with death). Now I need to know if the interest is there for one or both of these new shows, as well as HOW MUSIC DOES THAT, now on its 10th episode.

If you have the time, please sample the three episodes below, then complete the survey. Depending on the results, I’ll re-launch in January with 1, 2, or 3 different shows. Thanks for your help! – Dale
