This passion-fueled episode of Let's Blow This Up is a little outside the lines of content you'd expect to hear, but there's something to say for creating podcast content simply for love of the medium AND love of your hobbies and passions.

It's another installment from The Co-Host Collective Series and myself, Marc Ronick, and Jay Franze are primed to explore what it means to build an entertainment-based podcast from the ground up --- diving head first into why loving your medium is the foundation for creating something that truly resonates.

Throughout this conversation, we discuss how launching a podcast around your interests helps develop core podcasting skills and creative confidence. It’s not about chasing numbers early on...it's about building something meaningful and sustainable.

Discover how podcasting can be a tool for community-building, personal expression, and even self-discovery as we share stories, insights, and laughs around what it takes to keep showing up for your audience and yourself.

Whether you’re already podcasting or thinking about getting started, this episode serves as a reminder that passion leads the way. The rest (monetization, growth, recognition, etc.) follows when you focus on creating what lights you up.

Key Takeaways:

• Passion should be the driving force behind launching a podcast.
• Entertainment-based podcasts allow for creative freedom and personal connection.
• Monetization is a long game. Focus on quality and consistency first.
• Podcasting is a valuable tool for building skills in communication, production, and branding.
• A podcast can become a platform for building a like-minded community.
• Creating content you enjoy makes the process more sustainable and rewarding.
