I noted how similar Podbean is compared to Libsyn. Libsyn was the original podcast hosting company which started in 2004.
Zoom, Skype and other services work for interviews. Ecamm Call recorder with a mac for skype works well.
The Rodecaster Pro is a nice audio recorder but there may be better methods for remote recording.

Today in IOS is Rob’s main solo podcast show that launched when the iphone first launched.
We talk about the ipad pro and the macBook pro and why the ipad is a killer device now. There is no fan device. Rob is talking on a blue yeti in this episode.
A few of the apps to record on for the ipad pro.
Rob is using a Blue Yeti while we were recording.
Duct Tape Marketing is a good example of how to get leads and utilize a podcast.
