  • Re-releasing old episodes

    This was one of my favorite podcasts until I noticed that lately they’ve just been re-releasing old episodes under different titles. I’d love some new episodes, but if they’re just repeats then unfortunately I’ll be unsubscribing.

  • I listened to a few episodes but the program is only useful for the earliest beginners, not seasoned freelancers who are trying to scale. Each episode starts with 3 minutes of ads. The last episode I listened to was 11 minutes in before they started talking about the topic, and that included a second bank of ads. The advice was, I think, weak. They recommended joining your local Chamber of Commerce and spending $1000 to join a local networking group to find leads. These tips might be ok for ... more

  • Drives me insane

    I would listen to this show a lot more if the show info appeared at the top of the page when I clicked on it in my Apple Podcasts. Unfortunately, the most recent show is always at the bottom! This is the only podcast that does it that way and I’m not a fan of scrolling!
