Can't Wait Wednesday- Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You): A How-to Guide from the First Family of Podcasting

 


Hi! Can't-Wait Wednesday is one of my favorite bookish memes. I love seeing what others are looking forward to and talking about a book I can't wait to read. This meme is hosted by Tressa @.wishfulendings, and the meme is based on Waiting on Wednesday, which was hosted by Jill@breakingthespine. The purpose of this meme is to talk about a book we can't wait for. This week, I'm featuring  Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You): A How-to Guide from the First Family of Podcasting by Justin, Travis, and Griffin McElroy. All information comes from Goodreads. 


Title: Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You): A How-to Guide from the First Family of Podcasting

Authors: Justin, Travis, and Griffin McElroy

Genre: Non-Fiction/ How-to

Expected Publication: January 26th, 2021 by Harper Perennial 

Add To Goodreads: Here

Goodreads Summary

"From the #1 New York Times bestselling McElroy Brothers, creators of the hit podcasts My Brother, My Brother and Me andThe Adventure Zone, comes a helpful and hilarious how-to podcast guide covering everything you need to know to make, produce, edit, and promote a podcast…and get rich* doing it! (*Results not guaranteed.)


Justin, Travis, and Griffin McElroy made their names as “advice-giving brothers who have no business giving advice” (New York Times) on the hit podcast My Brother, My Brother, and Me. But while they may not have the best relationship or workplace advice, they certainly make you laugh, and they do know a thing or two about podcasting.  

In fact, the McElroy Brothers have spent the last decade making podcasts, including My Brother, My Brother and Me; The Adventure Zone; Sawbones; and more. From their start, independently producing and releasing the early episodes of My Brother, My Brother and Me, to their eleven currently available podcasts, the McElroys have become experts in creating successful podcasts. And now, they want to share what they’ve learned with you.

In Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You), the McElroy Brothers will walk you through the process of turning an idea into ear-candy for legions of fans, sharing their expertise on everything from deciding on an effective name (definitely not something like My Brother, My Brother and Me), what type of microphone to use (definitely not one from the video game Rock Band), to making lots and lots of money (spoiler: you probably won’t).

A must-read for anyone interested in podcasting, Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You) shares the keys to success as well as the mistakes to avoid and draws on the vast experiences of three of the funniest and most successful podcasters working today."

Why: 

I have talked for a few years now about starting a podcast. I even have a name for it. The only thing is that I have no idea where I would start. I love the McElroy's and I'm hoping their book will have me get started.

    I hope you get a lot of great ideas from this one! I know my husband really enjoys listening to podcasts, but they aren't really something I've gotten into. If you start one though! You just may convince me to start listening to them!

    The title of this one cracked me up before I even read what it was about. Sounds like a good one, especially if it is something you've been thinking about doing! Hope you get this soon!

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  2- Miriam Kendrick from C

Top Ten Tuesday books/ series I would recommend to someone who says don’t like to read.

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl . This weekly meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Each week, Jana will post a topic, and we will all make a list based on that topic. This week, the topic is Books Written Before I Was Born ( These can be books you’ve read or want to read! ) ( submitted by Davida Chazan @ The Chocolate Lady’s Book Review Blog ). I wasn’t feeling this, and so I went through and found a post from The Broke & the Bookish, and I did that. The original post can  be found here . I thought I would recommend some books from some of my favorite genres.   The Classics 1- Pride & Prejudice This is one of my favorite classics, and when making my list this week, I knew I needed to include it. The reason is that I think this is one of the best books by Jane Austen, and we use the story in a lot of modern media. 2- To Kill A Mocking Bird I was so surprised by how much I loved this

Top Ten Tuesday-Books I want to reread

Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by  Jana@thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and brings the book blogging community together. Each week Jana posts a topic, and we book bloggers write a response. This week, it's books I want to reread.  1- Pride & Prejudice   This is a classic I’ve read twice, I think? At least once, anyway, I love this novel so much. My favorite character in the book is Lizzie. I also miss the story. Maybe in 2021? Anyway, I miss this book and I want to reread it. 2- Foolish Hearts   I read this book in the summer of 2019. I had been in a bit of a slump at the time, so this pulled me out of it. I read the novel in about two weeks, and I just loved it so much. My favorite character is Claudia, and I want to revisit the book. That this involves theatre is another reason I need to reread this book ASAP. 3- After Anatevka   I know I talk about this book so much on the blog. I read this a few years ago now, and I want to revisit the charact
