Behind a good podcast... is good podcast tech.
When we started Code Story in 2019, I had no idea about the podcasting world and what went it to it. Though it is not rocket science, there are a number of things that are required…. a good mic, headphones, a quiet room – and of course, good podcast technology, specifically partners around hosting, publishing, streaming, discovery, etc. Enjoy our podcast related episodes, from the great tech visionaries in the space.
