From the #1 New York Times bestselling McElroy Brothers, creators of the hit podcasts My Brother, My Brother and Me and The Adventure Zone, comes a helpful and hilarious how-to podcast guide covering everything you need to know to make, produce, edit, and promote a podcast…and get rich* doing it! (*Results not guaranteed.)

Justin, Travis, and Griffin McElroy made their names as “advice giving brothers who have no business giving advice” (New York Times) on the hit podcast My Brother, My Brother and Me. But while they may not have the best relationship or workplace advice, they certainly make you laugh, and they do know a thing or two about podcasting.

In fact, the McElroy Brothers have spent the last decade making podcasts, including My Brother, My Brother and Me; The Adventure Zone; Sawbones; and more. From their start, independently producing and releasing the early episodes of My Brother, My Brother and Me, to their eleven currently available podcasts, the McElroys have become experts in creating successful podcasts. And now, they want to share what they’ve learned with you.

In Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You), the McElroy Brothers will walk you through the process of turning an idea into ear-candy for legions of fans, sharing their expertise on everything from deciding on an effective name (definitely not something like My Brother, My Brother and Me), what type of microphone to use (definitely not one from the video game Rock Band), to making lots and lots of money (spoiler: you probably won’t).

A must-listen for anyone interested in podcasting, Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You) shares the keys to success as well as the mistakes to avoid and draws on the vast experiences of three of the funniest and most successful podcasters working today.

The McElroys have done it again!

These boys have taken over every corner of media and books are no exception. This book is not only entertaining but also helpful for new and upcoming podcasters.

Lot's of obvious advices, good for an entry level

Things like "be a good person" or "don't sell a t-shirt for 20 if it costs 30" are among the most obvious and less insightful tips, but besides that, there are some interesting advices aswell. An entertaining listen for sure!

Genuinly informative and funny

A very great listen wether you really intend to actually start a podcast or not.

Fantastic for even an experienced podcaster

Every part of this book is perfect in length, easy to understand and useful.

They break down complex concepts in a way that I've struggled to do when explaining things about recording, social media and the general point of so much of it.

I've been podcaating for years and this was a fun way to school myself on the basics again. For anyone wondering about whether to pick up the physical or audio version, do both! and audio one for yourself because audio is great. And a physical one for the person you know you want to suggest the book to. it's just harder to hand over your login info to get them to listen to it.

amazingly informative

this is super helpful for anyone looking for some insight for the ins and outs of the world of podcasting. even if you already have a show and you're just looking to increase your audience or figure out how to start monetizing it, there was loads of primo information.

got to love those good good boys
