His sytle and topica along with the way he speaks and communicates is terrific.Thanks !

A few good tips peppered in with references to right wing groups like Focus on the Family. If that's cool with you have at it. But, if you believe in basic human rights know that listening to and supporting this podcast/man means supporting organizations that fight to oppress people.i reach out to him to discuss and completely ignored me.

An excellent guide on the importance of Lufs with important links to related software in aiding one to create a well tuned podcast, which I incorporated into my latest “Mister Radio” podcast episode. Thanks for this excellent presentation! But, as I mentioned in my unedited review couldn't this also be done simply by listening and adjusting levels as one is recording, like I used to do when working the board in radio? Now I've got to check out my various DAWS to see if they have something to check my LUFS, besides the cans on my ears! And I did find a meter in Logic!

Bad! Avoid! :)

I love this podcast Because it has helped me a lot on my podcast “ What’s That” I have had that podcast for about a year and a half and this podcast still finds ways to help me be better Plz give me a shout out or leave a review on my podcasts Thanks

Thank you, everyone, for the support!

As I’m prepping for my own podcast, I’ve been listening to the Audacity to Podcast. It is an excellent source of great information on the subject. Thank you for what you do Mr Lewis! - Randy Martin (soon to be) host of the IRSProb.com podcast “Helping Good People with IRS Problems”

Thank you so much for this podcast! I learn so much from this podcast and really enjoy it! I would definitely share this with anyone who is into podcasts/podcasting -Matthew, co-host of Tweens Talk Touchdowns

As a new podcaster, I found this to be an invaluable resource. I highly recommend! Lots of useful insight. - Dr. John, The Men’s Self Help Podcast

Daniel's podcast helped give me the tips and tricks needed to finally break through a months long holding pattern and finally launch my own show! I was nervous about all of the new learning curves, software, and other tech, but the step-by-step directions and reviews helped get me out there. I now have an up-and-coming medical show for educating students on accelerated learning, the Medical Mnemonist Podcast.

Thank you for all you do and have done for the podcast world Daniel. Bless you.

I’ve been searching for the same quality/energy/informative/encouraging podcast for podcasters, but I didn’t find any close podcast similarly than yours. Come back dear!

Hey Daniel! Just listened to your most recent episode. Love your heart and willingness to open up. Praying for and with you. When you are ready, I would love to interview you on my podcast that launches soon, Inspire the Mission, which is all about inspiring ideas that advance the mission of Christ. I know it’s a different focus than Audacity to Podcast, but I feel your spirit of giving, support, and love for your listeners is worth sharing.

I am so grateful for resources like this podcast! My co-host and I just launched our podcast (Ladies of the Fright) at the beginning of the year, and this is my go-to resource for whenever I have questions or encounter challenges, or when I’m simply seeking ways to make our show even better. Thank you for all your hard work and all you do to support podcasters everywhere! -Lisa Quigley

This is a *seriously* great value to the podcasting community! Daniel covers an array of topics that will help you improve your podcast. Our podcast, Simple Theology (simpletheology.org), has gleaned a ton from this show. Thanks, Daniel!!

After the most painful moments in my life, after I walked through the dark nights of the soul, I looked back and saw clearly that it was all serving my highest good. Hard. Painful. Scary. My ego didn’t like what was happening, but my soul knew the way.

This is one of those shows that got me started with podcasts. Thanks for that D!

I have listened to The Audacity to Podcast off and on for a few years now. I have wanted to start my own podcast and combed through episodes to learn about it. I am a bit shy and overthink things though and wound up spending time and money learning about podcasts instead of actually making them. During this time though, I kind of had Daniel's gentle nudging voice in the back of my head. Well, finally after a few years, I started Unstructured and am having a good time with it. Daniel is a great host and his podcast serves an important role in the crowded community of podcasts about podcasting. It is very encouraging, but not overproduced. I think that personally his kind spirit, approachability, and authenticity are what makes his show rise over the. rest.

There's so much great info in this podcast. The host's voice is very easy to listen to and understand. He covers everything you'd need to know about making a great podcast. The back catalog is full of priceless info. He covers simple things like gear and more complex things like motivation and content creation. I highly reccomend it for anyone interested in creating a podcast. It's been a great help for my podcast, Abe's Ukulele Podcast. It's a podcast about, yup, ukulele! It's for players and teachers of the uke to get better at that. Thanks, Daniel!

Thank you so much for your tips on how to save time when editing!

The podcast content is amazing and I’ve learned a lot. However, when it comes to the quality of the podcast, it sounds very compressed or quality reduced. For someone that wants to teach people how to podcast, I think it’s important to have good audio quality especially when you have a podcast literally called “The Audacity To Podcast”.

Because of Daniel and his long achrive of great podcast adivice. It seems like I'll become a well-rounded podcaster fast than expected. Daniel's notes are GRADE A and he's a great teacher. Thanks!

Daniel J. Lewis knows podcasting better than anyone and is so very generous with his expertise. Any time I have an issue with my podcast (40 episodes in and I'm still learning!) I know just where to go to get clear, concise advice.

I feel like this podcast can read my mind, because every time I think of a question or a fear or a problem I have about podcasting, there is an episode that dives into it. Thank you for doing this week! I’m learning so much and excited to dive into the podcasting world!

Daniel's podcast is very informative and useful. I listened to a lot of his archived episodes before starting my own podcast. By the time I launched, I had a lot of issues already worked out. Daniel's podcast is focused on the important things about building and serving an audience. Very highly recommended (especially listening to back episodes) if you are considering starting a podcast. Thanks Daniel! - Jeff B. - Plain English podcast.

Just wanted to send a sincere thanks your way. Listening to your podcast gave me the courage and knowledge to step into the ring. I am on cloud nine today as I proudly launched The Citizen Heroes Podcast with the hope that it helps us continue our important non-profit work. Daniel your podcasts are packed with usable information and it's evident that you are truly a professional at your craft. Bravo Zulu sir.

I am so thankful for Daniel and his detail oriented approach to providing podcasters with the resources they need to improve their craft. As I looked to start the Working Cows Podcast I found Daniel's videos, episodes, and articles vital in making sure I got my podcast off on the right foot. My name is Clay and my podcast is designed to be a platform for producers to share paradigm challenging practices that other ranchers can implement to assist them in producing high quality beef cattle while simultaneously improving their soil and water resources. I hope and pray all is well with you and yours.

I write murder mystery novels for a living. My next series is about a true crime podcaster and while it’s fictional, I want it to sound authentic. I’ve found this podcast to be an invaluable resource. Way better then the six “How to Podcast” books I bought on Amazon. Thank you! Thank you! It’s a six books series so I’ll be back for more information soon.

Highly recommend.

This podcast is amazing. I am a huge numbers guy. Episode 330 was very informative to me. I am new to the podcast game. Thank you for explaining all the different numbers that I see on Podbean. Also thanks for explaining subscribers.

The info is great, to the point, and (most importantly) accurate.

When I was first researching how to start our podcast (San Diego Sabers Radio Podcast) and looking for advice, I kept running into Daniel's website and pocast. His tips & tricks were extraordinarily valuable to helping me select the proper gear, studio setup, how to edit, etc. And now after almost a year, I still find myself following the podcast and finding new tips & tricks that help me make our podcast even better. I love the continuing process of learning and Daniel helps make that easy and comfortable! Much respect & gratitude!!

This is Charone from the Habeas Humor podcast. I recently discovered TATP, and I became a big fan after hearing just a few episodes. There is great information here. For example, one of the recent episodes gives a list of things you should check for with your RSS feed. Before listening to this, I barely knew what an RSS feed was. I also had no idea that a show can make it into Apple's new and noteworthy if it is not new. (I thought both labels had to apply.) This show offers both advice and encouragement to podcasters. Plus, with hundreds of episodes in the archive, you can just browse for the topics you are most interested in. Take advantage of this resource!

Daniel has a angelic voice. His free podcast has been a INCREDIBLE resource for helping me with my own Podcast. I’m so so thrilled I found this when I did.

I appreciate the most minute details you go into on each episode. You provide so much content both on your podcast and your website. Because of you I have stepped out and started a hobby podcast. Right now it isn't that good, but because of you I got the courage to at least start. I am sure many others have done the same thing because of your work. I would encourage other like you do to just start your podcast and you can work out the details as you go. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Daniel for all of the awesome tips. My podcast just turned three month today, whoop whoop! My download numbers were okay in the beginning but when I implemented your SEO tips and advices on giving back to my audience, my numbers slowly started to rise. People have been sending me thank you messages which are really heartwarming and fuel my drive to make the podcast even better. Honestly, I notice that a lot of game developer podcast don't last long, and so I was worried that mines would be the same. You motivated me to keep going and realize that I need to be patient. Thanks again for the awesome show. Tony Chan from Game Dev Loadout podcast.

I've been listening to Daniel's incredibly helpful podcasts for about a year. Not surprising, the audio quality is perfect. That alone should get the attention of would-be podcasters. This guy knows the technical side to everything we need to know to make a great podcast too. The beauty is, Daniel is so skilled in simplifying the tech details and is completely prepared with every episode he delivers. The information is priceless and presented in a clear and concise manner. I love the delivery and format he's developed over the years. Thank you Daniel for all you do. The podcasts, videos, and training you offer are the best! Joe Lamp'l (The joe gardener Show)

I listened to this wonderfully informative podcast about listening to podcasts on iOS 11 on iOS 11. This review is proof of the new simplicity of user interactivity of the Apple podcast app. I’m from Clinton, Iowa and I will be a podcaster someday. This show keeps inspiring me to do so!

Daniel provides INCREDIBLE value every week! He is always up on the latest in the podcasting world and always offers tips to help you make your podcast better. As a result of listening to his show, I was able to launch my podcast with confidence! Daniel, Thanks for always putting out great episodes! - Gloria Mitchell from the Living a Phenomenal Life podcast.

I've only been on the air for a week and Daniel's The Audacity to Podcast has been a lifesaver! He gives clear, actionable advice on how do the best job possible on your podcast with the least amount of headaches. I highly recommend subscribing and then going back and reveiwing his show notes afterwards so you can put in to place his recommendations. Thanks, Daniel! Kit from the Active Travel Adventures podcast : curated multi-day active vacations for adventurous folks

When I started my podcast, the Reformed Brotherhood, I didn’t have a clue what I was doing. I stumbled through it like a blind man. After about 40 episodes I discovered TAP and it was an eye opener. Daniel helped me understand what I had done right, and what I had done wrong. My podcast is demonstrably more successful than it would have been otherwise.

Thank you Daniel for encouraging me to start my own podcast. Your episodes are so in depth and I am so glad I found your podcast. I even went back and found older episodes that walked me through my specific needs: SEO, Podcast Titles, etc. This podcast is a must listen to for even the most seasoned podcasters. My new podcast is "Fastpass to the Past: The Theme Park History Podcast." Explore the outlandish origin stories of your favorite theme parks, attractions and shows. Thanks again! - Austin Carroll

This podcast is clear and easy to follow with the right mix of practical knowledge and personality. I’m a television reporter at ABC27 News in Harrisburg, and we launched a podcast called On Deadline almost one year ago. At first, it was difficult because we didn’t have any other comparable podcasts to follow as a model. But discovering your podcast allowed us to set concrete goals and develop strategies to get us there. The media landscape is changing, and it surprises me that more news organizations aren’t branching into podcasting. By the way, I especially like your episode about fixing interviewing problems; great insight for journalists, regardless of podcasting experience. Thank you for developing this resource!

Thanks Daniel for providing so much information and being a fantastoc resource to podcasters. Your blog/podcast really came in handy recently when I was up late one night uploading files to Libsyn for the first time. With the help of The Audacity to Podcast, my podcast Inspired Money has been launched. Thanks and keep up the great work! I enjoy listening to your show.

I'll preface this by saying, my listening habits and experiences are far from the norm. I began listening to The Audacity To Podcast in early July. It is now early September and I am caught up. That's right, in about 2 months, I have listened to over 300 episodes of TAP. I'll start with the good. Daniel is very good at what he does, presenting. You don't lsiten to someone talk in your ear for 200 hours if they aren't a good presenter. He is extremely knowledgable at his topics. I have learned so much information that I can, and am, using to improve my podcast since listening to his show. TAP is what gave me the drive to stop pointing my podcast domain at free services and get my own webhost and my own wordpress site up and running. It is still a work in progress. I learned about Chris' Dynamic Compressor and feel that using that has greatly increased my sound. I've been learning all sorts of tips and tricks for my SEO and how to market myself and my podcast. I have binged through everything and the content is so good I will continue being a loyal listener. However, the show isn't without what I would consider some faults. In the beginning, the ads for citrix drove me crazy. Keep in mind, I was hearing a new, hamfisted, citrix ad every hour for days on end while listening through, while if you listened early on or at a slower pace, it's only once a week. It really bummed me out when Daniel made the switch from Audcaity to Audition. I get that this was a good move for him, but to me, this was the beginning of the show losing it's amateur feel. I use Audacity, largely because I can't afford to move to something like Audition, and Daniel's use of Audacity, as well as his routine of focusing on how to use it every 5 episodes really connected me to the show and told me that I could have a successful and profitable podcast with this free software. That being said, if I could afford the switch, I'd look into it too. My biggest criticism of TAP is his cross and self promotion. I don't mind his promotions for mypodcastreviews.com so much because of a few pieces of criteria, but I can't stand the ads for podcasterssociety. Mypodcastreviews.com gets a large pass for me because Daniel does offer a free version that you can use to get a feel for the tool and see what value it brings to you. I am signed up for it, though I am haven't gotten any reviews from foreign stores to really benefit from it so far. I also enjoy his usual way of promoting it, by reading some of these reviews and promoting the shows of those that leave him a review. Sometimes when he tries to work it in in other parts of his show, it carries on a little too long for something you already know about and was only brought up as a promotion tool. Podcasterssociety.com has really ground my gears, for a few reasons. This has especially been an issue while binge listening. I wish he could work things out to have the "free for an extremely short amount of time" webinars be free indefintely as a trial. As an amateur and a hobbyist, I just simply cannot afford the $50/mo it takes to join his elite club. I understand that there is a lot of work that has gone into the society, but there isn't a good way to check it out and see what value would be brought by joining at such a high price. There is also the issue of it being closed to new members so often. Even if you have the money to join, you often can't because he closes it to new members regularly. It's exceptionally annoying to be advertised to for a service that you couldn't even join if you wanted to. I digress though, this is another thing I know I would sign up for without any issue if it wasn't so out of my budget. It's unfortunate to hear about a service I am sure I would get great value out of, but know I cannot experience. If I have such a problem with a big part of his content, why am I still giving it 4 stars? The answer to that is simple. Daniel runs a business. He needs to make money off of his products and services to provide for his family. He also offers a ton of knowledge outside of his premium tools for absolutely free. If listening to him talk about a product he worked hard on that I can't afford for a few minutes is the price I have to pay for him to keep doing what he's doing, so be it, he deserves a high review, and it'd be 4.5/5 if I could. And for you Daniel, as I know you are reading this. Thank you for what you do for the podcasting community, please don't take what I said too harshly. My podcast is Adventures in Erylia over at adventuresinerylia.com. We are currently on a hiatus because we switched from a Blue Yeti for 5 people to a Zoom H6 and 5 Dynamic mics. We will be relaunching on September 30th, aka, International Podcast Day.

Daniel's passion, energy and wisdom combine for an incredibly informative and entertaining listen. I have started my own podcast and his advice has saved me from making mistakes early on that may have otherwise railroaded me and got me off track. I've been working on listening to many relevant podcasts in the catalog and look forward to a new episode every week. Thank you Daniel for your on-going support!

Daniel J. Lewis (the host of this show) is brilliant, and has always been my go-to for podcast information (should mention I am not affiliated with, or know him personally, in any way). His information on Audacity to Podcast and other podcast sites/shows is informative, clear, very to the point, and always unique in that he strikes the perfect balance of nerding out with nuanced detail, but keeping the broad level important points in place, in a way that's organized and easily digestible. Kudos for this podcast production information! Folks may also want to check out "Podcasters Roundtable" which includes Daniel with other podcast show guests having round robin conversations about all things in the podcast production world.

I've been listening to Daniel for years now and it only took me about 8 months to realize that his name WASN'T the same as the famous actor!! Nevermind that tho - Daniel is a natural teacher and encourager and is open and honest with his audience. I've learned so much from him and can tell you for sure that my podcast, Disciple Up (at discipleup.org) would not exist without his help. That help includes several personal e-mails he took the time to send me. He doesn't just share information, he cares about his audience as well and that really comes through. Thank you Daniel for all you do and please keep on doing it!!

When I first realized that a podcast would be a good fit for my project God and Gigs, my faith-centered community of mainstream artists and musicians, I was immediately worried that I wouldn't be able to figure out all the nuances of yet another broadcast medium. I previously had figured out blogging relatively well, but podcasting seemed out of reach - both because of the technical aspects and the hurdles of figuring out what equipment I really needed. After a few fruitless Google searches I found Daniel's show, and his clear and concise style immediately made it seem less stressful to find information. For example, when I struggled to figure out what loudness meant, I could hop right to the podcast on loudness. (I was scared by all the jargon, but it made sense when I applied the information). Using his recommendations for minimal equipment and simple fixes fixed problems before they became problems. Some experts can sound way too "expert-like", but I've never felt like Daniel talks down to us newbies. I'm thankful for this show for helping me successfuly launch the first episode of the God and Gigs Show. I hope my future listeners and subscribers will recognize the contribution it made to the material I'm now able to share.

Thank you Daniel. Your positivity and passion have inspired me to start my own podcast. Your episodes helped to give me confidence to just start. I feel like my content has gotten better over time and I owe a lot of that to you. So thank you sir. The Good in the Bad by the Ugly podcast is a passion project of mine to try and get people to rethink their initial ratings of movies. With your enthusiasm, I was able to add a voice to my thoughts. Now, with my ramblings, the army that are my listeners can help bring a movie from the brink of obscurity to the safety of mediocrity. Thank you.
