Have you ever wanted to start a podcast to stay in touch with friends?

I thought I wanted to start a podcast with my friends, turns out I just wanted to use the format to stay in touch.

I travel quite a bit so I have friends in many timezones. Some of us attempted to start a podcast by each recording an audio clips and stitching them together into an episode. We quickly realized we didn't want the discussions to be fully public, however, the format of communicating through these audio podcast-like messages was a game changer.

This is what lead to the development of Roads Audio.

So have you ever wanted to start a podcast? What was that experience like?

Yesterday I had a 30 min call with a new acquaintance. Time just flew by, typically a sign that there is a lot to talk about (or bad time management if you will). I wasn't ready for what happened next. He asked me if we could continue the conversation on his podcast. He said he'd done almost 300 episodes and it'd be a 60 minute conversation. Until I read the topic of this thread, I'd never considered the idea of running a podcast to stay in touch with friends, but I actually don't think it's such a bad idea.

@per_clingweld I don't have an actual podcast myself but I suspect that it allows people to have a dedicated conversation either on a specific topic or just to catch up. Are you going to do his show? Have you been a guest on a podcast before? Sounds like a fun experience!
