In this episode of iCantCU, I look back at five years of the podcast. I discuss what episodes have been the most popular and what countries have the most downloads. I play clips of the very first episode and the most downloaded episode. Whether this is your first time listening or you’ve been along for the entire ride, I am grateful for your support. I really appreciate it.
Curious about episode 001? Give it a listen https://pdcn.co/e/traffic.libsyn.com/icantcu/iCantCU_Podcast_-_Introducing_David_Thats_Me.mp3. There was no editing of this episode or the first few dozen.
Correction
Maybe I haven’t improved over the last five years. The podcasting conference that I attended in Philadelphia in 2018 was Podcast Movement. Podfest is a conference I attended in 2020 in Orlando.
