Episode 498 - You Have What You Need To Start A Podcast - Don't Over Spend When Starting Out - The Daily Dave - Podcasting Tips
The Big Idea - Don't let technology and lack of finances stop you in your tracks when starting your show. Yes, you can always improve and upgrade - there are many companies and resources that will be perfectly happy to accept your money for new gear, resources, tools and advice - but don't fall into a money pit that you can't escape from when starting your show!
I share how Aerosmith used a sugar packet to record the intro of Sweet Emotion, yes, a "free" package of sugar just lying around was the perfect tool required in the intro to this song. A free, again, free, package of sugar.
Aerosmith had all the money to buy the perfect whatever for the intro to Sweet Emotion, but instead, they simply used what was at hand, in the moment and it was perfect.
I would hazard to guess that you have everything you need to start, don't spend money you don't have - use what you have and grow from there!

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
