Mark Asquith: From Geek to Podcasting Guru

Podcasting had this perception of being complex and having an elite crew that know how to do it, like all of that's gone because people are more savvy now, because interfaces have been designed to match expectations.
Ever wondered how a love for the DC Universe can spark a successful podcasting career? Meet Mark Asquith, the CEO and co-founder of Rebel Base Media, who has been a staple in the podcasting world since 2013. In this episode of 'Podcaster Stories', host Danny Brown chats with Mark about his journey from a comic book geek to a podcasting expert.
Mark dives into why he thinks like a geek when it comes to his approach to podcasting and how this mindset has helped him identify gaps in the market that led to the creation of Rebel Base Media and Captivate.fm. Mark also shares his thoughts on the evolution of the podcasting industry, including the shift away from technical jargon and the impact of Spotify's entry into the scene.
He offers valuable advice for podcasters, emphasizing the importance of networking and providing value before worrying about sponsorships. And for a fun twist, Mark recounts his days in a hair metal band, sharing the stage with rock legends like Whitesnake. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for both budding podcasters and seasoned pros.
Whether you're curious about the technical side of podcasting or looking for inspiration from someone who's been in the trenches, Mark's story is both enlightening and entertaining. Tune in to hear how a passion for geek culture can translate into podcasting success and what it takes to stay ahead in this ever-evolving medium.
