Cliff, just listened to episode 479 and it brought back such great memories. The episode was excellent along with the value and actionable ideas you’ve always provided. I was in your Podcasting A to Z class in March of 2016 and had followed you long before that.

The Podcast Answer Man podcast is required listening for anyone serious about podcasting. My longtime friend Cliff Ravenscraft is a true pioneer in the space, generously helping thousands of creators launch, grow, and optimize their podcasts long before podcasting was mainstream. Cliff combines deep technical knowledge with real-world experience, clear strategy, and an authentic desire to see others succeed. It’s smart, practical advice from a genuinely good man who absolutely knows his stuff.
Cliff Ravenscraft is and will always be one of the most influential persons in my podcasting journey. I have learned so much from Podcast Answer Man over my years and truly enjoy listening to the podcast. If you ever are in need of feedback or help, Cliff is a great man to ask! Enjoy the return of a wonderful podcast for podcasters.
Cliff has been doing this for years, yet it’s still fresh and relevant for today’s challenges.
He continues to provide the fundamentals of podcasting as well as the latest updates and challenges to running a successful & impactful podcast.
I started listening to Cliff’s original version of this show back in 2012. It’s what inspired me to produce my own podcast “Evolution Talk” and multiple audio dramas. Hearing Cliff’s return to ‘Podcast Answer Man’ is like catching up with an old friend.
