If the Pope needs to do a Podcast maybe you do too!

Well maybe the Pope doesn't have to after all he is the Pope. But maybe he wants to. But he is a missionary just as I was a missionary and still am, and that means that we will do any media in any way we can to reach people with good news and good ideas and tell good stories. That's where I learned to do radio, as a missionary radio guy broadcasting all around the world.

But the thing that turns me on right now is the fact that you don't have to be a big shot and have lots of money and stuff like that to be on the radio. You can be on the radio with your own program and even your own radio station.

It's a wonderful opportunity, and remember that Donald Trump did not become president because he had lots of money and was a real estate development leader. ... He became president because he was the only one running who knew something about using the mass media and had been a television star... And the chance is that he was re-elected because he went on all of the podcasts.

And as I used to say on late night radio, "just let that sit on your head for a while."

And now STOSH the robot wants to add his two cents to the conversation.

If the Pope Can Podcast, Maybe You Should Too

*By Stan the Radioman*

Let’s get real for a moment: when the Pope decides it’s time to do a podcast, it might be a gentle nudge from above that it’s time you considered it too. Yes, that’s right—His Holiness behind a microphone, reaching out with stories, insights, and blessings via a podcast. Now, if that doesn’t make you stop and think, what will?

Hello friends, this is Stan, your friendly Radioman, and today I want to have a heartfelt conversation with you—one that starts with a bit of humor, moves through the madness of modern media, and ends with a serious call to action. Because in a world where even the Pope is podcasting, you and I have something important to consider: the voice we were given is meant to be shared.

A Podcast with a Purpose

The idea of the Pope doing a podcast might sound like the punchline to a late-night monologue, but it’s real—and it’s revealing. It shows us that no matter who you are or what platform you occupy, communication is changing. The microphone isn’t just for professionals anymore; it’s for teachers, leaders, creators, dreamers, and everyday folks with something meaningful to say.

I’ve been preaching this for years. As someone who’s been part of the podcasting world since its scrappy early days, I’ve seen firsthand how it empowers people. Podcasting is not just about talking—it’s about performing, persuading, connecting, and even healing. In a world heavy with war, noise, and division, there’s something beautiful about claiming a little corner of the digital universe to speak your truth.

And trust me, it’s not just about becoming famous or building a brand (though it can do that too). It’s about making sure your story, your message, and your mission aren’t left unsaid. That might be for your business, your ministry, your family legacy—or even just your sanity.

Why This Matters Now

We live in war-like times. Cities burn, nations battle, and the noise of conflict seems louder than ever. But in the middle of all that, there’s room for something different: storytelling. Hope-sharing. Peace-making. And that’s where podcasting becomes more than just a marketing tool—it becomes a mission.

You don’t need a studio or a big audience. You just need your voice and the courage to use it. Take it from me—and now from the Pope—your message matters.

You may try it and discover, like I did with golf, that it’s not quite your thing. That’s okay. But at least you’ll have explored it. And maybe along the way, you’ll discover a new version of yourself. You don’t have to be a podcaster. But you need to understand the power of this platform because the world is listening—and they need voices that speak truth, peace, and hope.

Key Takeaways for You to Remember and Share

• Podcasting isn’t just media—it’s mission. Your voice can be a force for good in chaotic times.

• You don’t have to be perfect—just present. Try it, test it, and see what happens.

• Performance is the new marketing. People respond to authenticity, personality, and presence.

• Storytelling is soul work. It heals the speaker and the listener.

• If the Pope is podcasting, you’ve run out of excuses.

A Gentle Challenge and a Call to Peace

So here’s the deal. I’m starting a podcast on podcasting. Why? Because I want to help people like you discover that your voice can make a difference. Whether you want to grow a business, write a book, teach a lesson, or just speak peace into a noisy world, I want to help you do it.

And in the spirit of peace—real, deep, abiding peace—I leave you with this thought from Jesus himself: *“My peace I give to you.”* That’s the kind of peace we need more of. And maybe, just maybe, your next step in building that peace starts behind a microphone.

So let’s do this together. Reach out to me at [email protected]. No pressure. Just possibilities. Because in this day and age, if the Pope can do it… well, maybe it’s your turn.

**Amen. Let’s go.**
