Unless you're famous, wildly charismatic, or have some very specialized knowledge I'm not sure how you break into the podcasting game. I mean you could have a podcast, but it wouldn't earn you a living.

Farming you could have microgreens or mushrooms in customer hands in a few weeks and that could be done from a closet after watching some youtube videos.

Yep, just that easy to earn a living through farming!

That comment 🀣

I'm not saying working your way up to earning a living farming would be any way easy, but you could be earning something a lot sooner than a podcast if you're starting from zero in both scenarios.

You could also just Uber and make 4x as much for less effort.

Unfortunately yes, this is very true.

There’s a lot you can do in the closet after watching some YouTube videos.

I spent all of my teenage years in the closet and I did indeed watch YouTube as a kid

There are only two real options:

  1. Be part of an existing popular podcast. If you get to be a guest appearance and you're charismatic enough, you can get invited back more often until you're a regular. Get good enough to get your own following and then you can eventually break off and do your own thing with sponsorships from the get-go.

  2. Be famous for something else first. If you're a celebrity, author, streamer, YouTube personality, etc., you can start a podcast from nothing and have your sponsors and listeners already lined up.

Ha ha ha ha. "It'll be easy they said! You'll be raking in the profits in weeks they said". LOL.

It took me three years of busting my ass to make a profit, and that's considered exceptionally good.
