Send a question for 'Ask Megan'
Hey, Podcasters!
At nearly every conference or meetup, someone says the same thing: “I didn’t realize how much I needed to meet other podcasters.” Because most of the time, this work happens alone.
But that isolation doesn’t have to be part of the job. For many creators, local podcast meetups have helped turn solo work into a shared community!
This week on Buzzcast, the team sat down with Badr Milligan, host of The Short Box Podcast and co-founder of JAX Podcasters United, to explore how a small meetup in 2018 grew into a 500+ member community.
He breaks down exactly how to get started, including:
How to plan your first meetup (even if you’ve never hosted an event)
- Where to host it, and why restaurants often welcome podcast groups
- How to market it without a big budget
- When to introduce workshops, education tracks, or even a charity element
- How to keep events free without burning out
If you’ve ever wished podcasting felt more connected, this episode is for you!
