DAVE JONES | Podcasting 2.0, Value For Value & Innovative Features

Mere Mortals

In Mere Mortals Conversation #54 I got to welcome on Dave Jones; a host of Podcasting 2.0 and integral part of the movement to improve podcasting. In this episode we go over some of the core aspects of how he and Adam Curry are making the podcasting experience better for listeners, developers and podcasters. This includes things like the value for value model, innovative new features and how cryptocurrency is becoming part of the process. Towards the end I get to ask Dave some more personal questions related to books, cars and why he and Adam work so well together.
As always, I hope you are having a fantastic day wherever you are in the world. Kyrin out!
