After doing things for a few years, I’ve noticed “patterns” of those who make it and those who, well frankly don’t and have a hard time enjoying podcasting.   After all, it is supposed to be a little fun..right? At least?   I know this, winning = fun not winning = no fun :(   So following that logic, this episode should be called, "How to NOT Lose at Podcasting." (Avoid these handfuls of mistakes)   Great.   Now that we have a good title, enjoy this episode, avoid these mistakes and email me at luis@podcastdomination.co if you need help growing or launching your show.
