THE FUTURE OF EVERYTHING Panel: How Your Radio Station Can Benefit From These Evolving Platforms?
The future of our business is in podcasting. Unless it's streaming. Or maybe it's video. You'll have to subscribe, unless you won't. And you'll get it all on your phone, unless it's on your "smart speaker," or in your car. Wait... what IS the future going to be for the radio and music businesses? What will we have to do to survive and prosper as the current business models become antiquated? Our panel of forward-thinkers will help you see into the future, and help you steer your career and your company through the technological developments that are already changing how your audience is consuming content.

Doug Salamone
I publish as soon as I'm done recording unless it's a project requiring more editing and creative design.
I like both types of shows. Ones without a co-host and ones with a co-host especially if they have great chemistry.
Joe Bunzerelly
Is there an update on midroll?
Im a recent switch to spreaker, and i thoroughly enjoy this show, i like the balance of hearing my host representative” and also the objective of two seasoned podcasters. I like knowing what's going on in podcasting and Spreaker on particular, but i never feel like you guys are trying to sell me something.
