Coming Soon - Podcast Atlantic


      I am scared ... and excited ... and scared.  After, what seems like a very long time I am returning to a world that is very familiar, new and challenging?  Over these last few months I have been working towards a new path for my life.  Baring any issues with Trademark or Copyright I would like to officially say that I am starting a new production business called Podcast Atlantic.

     Podcast Atlantic will be more than just a production company.  It will be a network.  My hope is to create a home for currently produced podcasts that are coming out of the Atlantic region.  Many podcasts do not get the marketing or promotion they deserve so that is where I will come in.

     Also, I will produce podcasts as well.  I will start with two and hopefully, if there is success, the number of in-house projects will grow.  Down the road, I will also offer technical assistance for those who want to produce their own podcasts but do not want to get into the production and post-production part of the experience. 

     I have never run a business.  I worked twenty-seven plus years for the community channel.  It was non-profit so making money was not my concern.  That has changed with the creating of Podcast Atlantic.  I have just started the process.  I was recently accepted to the Centre for Entrepreneurship Education and Development (CEED) and over the next forty weeks I will learn how to run a successful business.  I am so grateful. 

     I am also nervous.  There is a great deal about this process that I know nothing about.  I will be coming to some of you for advice and help.  I hope that is not too presumptuous of me.  I'm too damn old to do this will out some help. Hopefully you will indulge me. 

     To wrap things up, and to leave the most important to last, I want to thank my wife Lorraine for her support during these last few months and years.  This would not be happening without her being on my side.  So, keep an eye out for announcements about the drop dates of the network and individual podcasts.  Be ready to share everything with all your followers and I hope that you join me on this new adventure.
