Question(s) of the Week
Question: When changing the name of your podcast, should you create a whole new account or just change everything on your current account and leave the old episodes?
Answer: Depends… if the rebranded show is on the same subject (or close) then just renaming things and pressing on with all the old episodes still there is the way to go. If the show is majorly different, it’s likely better to kill the show (see last week’s blog post) and start a new one with a new RSS feed.
