<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ed Snible, post: 3100201, member: 82322&quot;]Rather than going with my gut let&#039;s look at comparables.&nbsp; I have the Podcast Addict app on my phone and a 45 minute commute.&nbsp; I enjoy several history podcasts such as <i>Hardcore History</i> with Dan Carlin and <i>Revisionist History</i> with Malcolm Gladwell.&nbsp; These guys are polished speakers who write their stuff first.&nbsp; I haven&#039;t found anything great on coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are the coin/artifact related podcasts I&#039;ve tried</p><p><i>CoinWeek</i> - decent, comes out about twice a month, sometimes covers ancients, I listen to about half of them</p><p><i>Museum of Lost Objects</i> - Funded by the BBC with real reporting, I gave up half way through this series</p><p><i>Coin Show Radio</i> - I stopped listening, probably because these guys only like modern coins and think they are humorous</p><p><i>The Detecting Lifestyle Network</i> - I think they stopped making this after a few episodes</p><p><br /></p><p>I have also watched American Numismatic Society&#039;s YouTube channel.&nbsp; The problem with this is that I can&#039;t listen in the car because the speakers depend on their slides and because the talks are often so technical they require concentration I can&#039;t muster while driving.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unless you have a radio-quality voice and interesting contrarian opinions about coins it will be hard to create content.&nbsp; You have to figure out how &quot;produced&quot; you want to be.&nbsp; Unless you have skilled raconteurs / improvisors you can&#039;t just turn on a microphone and get listenable content.&nbsp; You want writers and audio editors if you can get them.&nbsp; Read the graphic novel <i>Out on the Wire: The Storytelling Secrets of the New Masters of Radio</i> for ideas.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
