Your show has given me the confidence to start a podcast. I plan to go live in a couple of weeks and I really appreciate your show. Thank you!!
A great inspiration.
I've been podcasting for only a few months and two of the main inspirations have been Dave Jackson and Glenn Hebert. I'm writing this as I listen to the two of them on a show together. This show is great for tips and tricks that would take years to stumble upon. I highly recommend listening to this if you have any interest in starting your own podcast.

simply the best
I have been really enjoying this show. Dave's humour, knowledge, authenticity and his passion to serve his audience give Dave his secret sauce ...... and its earsmackin good !!
A fun show
Whether or not I ever have a Podcasts I will probably always listen to Dave's show. Sure, he talks about podcasting, how to podcast, and other podcast stuff but the show is usually entertaining on its own. It is worth a listen even if you never plan your own show but enjoy the medium of podcasting.
Always fun & great info!
If you're just about to start or have been podcasting for a long time, this is great show for you. Great info, practical advice, no snake oil nonsense and I'm always entertained. Dave is also very responsive to off air questions. He jumped in to help me with an issue. It was a quick & easy fix but would've taken me days if not weeks of research on my own. Thanks!
Favorite podcasting resource!
I am addicted to this podcast. Learn something new and valuable every week. This led me to sign up for Dave's School of Podcasting course - not only a comprehensive & up to date resource for starting (or growing) a podcast, but also a great community of people. Thank you Dave!
Thank you, Dave.
My girlfriends and I run a fan site, and decided to do a podcast several months ago. We purchased our microphones, bought our hosting and prepared our site to house a podcast. Your advice gave us the courage to just hit "record". Not just the technical aspects of it (that's easily found via different outlets), but the philosophy of the actions behind it. Providing 'value', focusing on your audience, and keeping it fun for you to make it through the long haul. Invaluable. I found you on the podcaster's roundtable, and followed you to your site and downloaded your episodes. I enjoy your entire catalog. :) Keep doing what you are doing, and thank you again!
Best of the Best!
Hello Dave, I'm one of the many silent faithful listeners of your shows (yes, shows). I started listening to this show a little over a year ago. You've helped me find the courage to pick up the microphone and start something I've been wanting to do for a long time now. Podcast! For that I'm Grateful. As the International Podcast Day nears I cannot remain one of your silent followers. I cannot think of a more deserving candidate for the Gratitude award. I look forward to submitting my story to your "because of my podcast segment." I'm proud of what I'm working on and I can't wait for the rss to appear on iTunes.
Love love love!
Just simply thank you to you, Dave for all that you do for the platform of podcasting and for us, the podcasters out there learning from you every day. Thank you!
If you're a podcaster, Dave's your guy
I've been listening to Dave for something like 4 years now, about as long as I've been podcasting. I've listened to most of the other podcasts about podcasting, but Dave is the only one that I listen to regularly. Always informative, always has value, AND when I sent him an email a while back, he responded with a video! How cool is that? Rock on Dave, keep it up.
Learned a lot
Dave is teaching me a lot about podcasting. I'm trying to get one going and have lots of questions. The School of Podcasting is answering a lot of those questions for me. The cat bits are hilarious, and you can tell Dave really loves what he's doing.
I've got a dave jackson earworm
I love dave's honest, authenticity and expertise. He's a funny guy too. The real deal, thanks dave
Awesome and educational..
i love being a podcaster, however, there is so much i need to learn...and i learn from people like dave jackson-- thre is one thing you need when you start a podcast..thats guts! it takes guts and passion to start businesses...and podcasting is a business- ( Positive Phil )
Great show!
Helpful for Podcasters.
Funny, entertaining, information - a great listen!
This is a fabulous podcast :-) It's packed with practical information and great advice. I really like the way Dave doesn't 'over-geek' everything - he always gives free/cheap/medium/elite options rather than recommending kit which most people can't afford. He's encouraging, entertaining and highly motivational. I've done the circuit of the 'how to podcast' shows, Dave is my first choice now for tips/tools/resources/news and advice. You must put a load of time into all this Dave, thank you, it's very much appreciated!
Easy to listen to and very informative podcast
If you're getting started in the world of podcasting or looking to polish some of your podcasting skills, the School of podcasting is a great podcast to do just that. Subscribed and tuned in!
The best
The only podcast that you need to listen to if you want to know about podcasting,he usally knows the answer,if not he will find out he is a great resource
This is the Real Deal
I subscribed to Dave's School of Podcasting after listening to several episodes of his show. There are other people out there who teach podcasting with a bit more hype, pomp and circumstance, but I don't believe that those methods will produce long term results. What I like about Dave is he seems to actually care not only about people individually, but about the podcasting field in general. Dave will never tell you to exchange reviews. I know this practice exists, and yes, of course I've been tempted to go this route myself, but think about it.... why should you get someone to review your show who will never listen to it? Don't you want REAL listeners to review your show? You will only gain listeners by producing great content and marketing your show to actual potential listeners. Also don't be fooled by Dave's humility. He really knows his stuff and if you spend a few shows listening to him, you'll start to learn it too. I've greatly improved my podcasting skills by listening to his show, and being a member of his School of Podcasting hasn't hurt either because he always answers my questions, usually within an hour of my emailing him. If you are going to pay for a podcasting coach, the value you get from the School of Podcasting can't be beat.
Learning time
It's not boring and you do learn new things on each episode.
Fantastic Resource!
What a fantastic resource this show has been for me. As a 51 year old professional in the entertainment industry, I knew nothing about podcasting when I decided to have my own show. The School of Podcasting has and will continue to be my GPS (great podcasting source). Thanks Dave for doing your homework! Alan Bruess, Tailgate Entertainer
Simply The Best Content!
Thanks Dave! For years now, every time I needed to research something related to podcasting, you are always one of my 2 goto sources. Thanks for being a great teacher, for delivering your show with passion and fresh enthusiasm in every episode. I get sucked in overtime and listen to your entire episodes because they are so engaging. Love hearing your opinions, suggestions and wisdom. Thanks for investing the time to serve and help millions over all these years!
