How do you run a daily podcast and newsletter every single day without burning out? Today we’re joined by James Cridland, founder of Podnews, to find out how he keeps up with the fast-paced podcast industry while staying committed to an open ecosystem. We ask him about his daily workflow, why he chooses to self-host, and how he builds custom tools to simplify his process. James also elaborates on Podcasting 2.0, explaining new features like funding tags, Podroll recommendations, and cross-app comments that make podcasting more dynamic for creators and listeners alike.
