Thinking about starting a podcast for your business? Not so fast. In this episode of Pedal Stomper Productions, Josh breaks down the essential framework to help you decide: Is a branded podcast really the right move for your company?

From common misconceptions (“I’ll go viral overnight!”) to strategic questions around audience fit, marketing alignment, and resource management—this episode is the ultimate gut check before you hit record. You’ll learn:

✅ The 4 core goals a branded podcast should serve
