In this episode Mike and Eric review the podcast "Stuff You Should Know" hosted by Josh Clark and Chuck Bryant. Coming up on 15 years and now over 2,000 episodes Josh and Chuck have managed to continuously challenge each other while providing information you should know in a non-pretentious manner. Now with a large and loyal following of everyday people they are able to host live shows as well as leverage the brand across books and even a board game collaboration.
So, why has this been so successful? Is it just two nice guys who are sufficiently curious about everyday things with great chemistry? Not surprisingly, yes. Combine that with a great podcast title and a bit of a foundation from a formerly-related educational website on which you can hit the ground running and maybe you too can repeat their success.
The SYSK guys can be found on Twitter at @SYSKPodcast. We specifically focused on the episode "Ballpoint pens? Heck yes, ballpoint pens!", which can be found here on iHeartMedia:

In this episode Cliff talks about his career in radio broadcasting and how he's expanded it into a podcasting consultancy.

We love business podcasts and this one is right up our alley, pairing it with another favourite topic -- startup founder experiences. But pulling off a kickstarter podcast is harder than you might think. Getting that balance right between showcasing the founder and the product all while talking about what the podcast is really about, the lessons learned during the crowdfunding campaign, is tricky. What do Eric Byron, Michael Kerr and our guest C. K. Sze, Ubitech founder and Kickstarter-experienced entrepreneur, think this week?
The Art Of The Kickstart podcast exists to help inventors and entrepreneurs successfully crowdfund their products. Billed as the longest-running podcast on crowdfunding, this podcast contains hundreds of interviews with campaign creators who share their stories.
CK, Mike and Eric focused on "Monitor and Control Your Utilities with PowerX" for this review. Find it here:

Like the saying goes "Go niche or go home". Oh, actually, that's apparently not how the saying goes, but if you've listened to any of our reviews on the No Harm In Asking podcast, you're probably aware that we think it should. While building a brand in a narrow subject, like grammar, might seem like an uphill battle, if you can ultimately pull it off you might just find yourself with a fascinating career.
One of our favorites is Mignon Fogarty, a.k.a. Grammar Girl, who has built up such a following that many of her episodes are now provided by fans and other guest contributors, which she simply reads, leaving her time to focus on promoting her tips and books helping us all communicate better.
Five-time winner of Best Education Podcast at the Podcast Awards, Grammar Girl provides short, friendly tips to improve your writing and feed your love of the English language. Whether English is your first language or your second language, these grammar, punctuation, style, and business tips will make you a better and more successful writer.
Mike and Eric listened to "Wick-ED Fun Pronunciations. Deviled Eggs." and many others, including lots of great short tips on YouTube. Find her podcast on Apple Podcasts here:

This week on the show, Michael Kerr and Eric Byron are pleased to welcome our guest Danielle Meadows-Stinnett of the "MoreThanGraphics Podcast" to discuss her favourite podcast -- "The GaryVee Audio Experience"!
For the podcasting perfectionists out there, great is often the enemy of good enough. Especially, as Danielle points out, if your audience is creators and entrepreneurs that need daily motivation to keep on going! Lots of great lessons from GaryVee in this podcast on how to create audio content from virtually anything you do.
The GaryVee Audio Experience is hosted by entrepreneur, CEO, investor, content creator, and public speaker Gary Vaynerchuk. Almost every day Gary offers up a mix of the #AskGaryVee show episodes, keynote speeches on marketing and business, segments from his DAILYVEE video series, interviews and fireside chats he's given, as well as new and current thoughts he records pretty much wherever he finds himself for this "audio experience"!
The "More Than Graphics Podcast" with Danielle Meadows-Stinnett can be found on Apple Podcasts (link below). Tune in as Danielle, her co-host Cicely, and guests put it all on the table, sharing authentic life truths from an array of women (and men) in the tech and creative industries as we sustain and empower each other while in search of their tribe.

This week on the âNo Harm In Askingâ podcast, Michael Kerr and Eric Byron review "The Jordan Harbinger Show". Certainly the old adage "nothing succeeds like success" applies to Jordan as he can definitely get guests that most podcasters can't but there's still some great lessons in the business that he has built. As many reviews have taught us, being nice is never a losing strategy along with remembering that every episode is an opportunity to gain a new fan, so make it easy for them.
Every week, Jordan interviews fascinating people at the top of their game. Now over 700 episodes, "The Show" has become one of the most popular podcasts in the world and was awarded âBest of 2018âł by Apple. A recovering lawyer who speaks 5 languages Jordan covers such topics as disinformation, abnormal psychology, China, criminal justice, cults, scams, conspiracies, cyber warfare and more!
Mike and Eric listened to episode "737: Winston Sterzel : Donât Lose Your Bacon in a Pig-Butchering Scam" as well as a few others for this review. We also love his "Starter Packs" section if there are particular topics you're interested in. They can be found on Jordan's website here:

If faith plays a role in your life, there is one podcasting genre that comes with a loyal and dedicated audience in the millions, ready to support you with their time and often money â Religion. This week Michael Kerr and Eric Byron listened to numerous religion-focused podcasts and found a diverse collection of offerings catering to all believers. However, at Compelled we feel we found one that combined the right mix of inspiration, scripture and hope told through current and relevant stories of transformation and redemption.
Compelled is a seasonal podcast that uses gripping and immersive storytelling to celebrate the powerful ways that God is transforming the lives of Christians around the world. Hosted by entrepreneur Paul Hastings and produced with a small team, Compelled is a niche podcast worth cheering for.
Mike and Eric listened to many of Compelled's uplifting stories including âSentenced to 500 Years in Prisonâ, âHope for the Porn Addicted Pastorâ, âLoving the Forgotten Through Foster Care & Adoptionâ, âFrom a Jail Cell to Ministryâ and "Transgender to Transformed". They can be found on Paul's website here:

How do you determine if you have the authority, the experience or the ârightâ to produce a podcast on a given topic? Obviously you can choose to do a podcast on anything, there are no rules or restrictions. But should you be able to authentically connect with your guests for ultimate success? We think you do. In this episode Mike and Eric discuss authenticity, niche topics, how long we think this particular podcast can and should last and showcase how Anderson uses audio elements to engage the listener and deliver unfiltered emotion.
On âAll There Isâ Anderson Cooper takes listeners on a deeply personal exploration of loss and grief. Episode 1 shares his experience of packing up the apartment of his late mother Gloria Vanderbilt along with memories of his brotherâs suicide decades ago. In subsequent episodes he talks with other guests that have lived through similar grief in a series of emotional and moving conversations about the people we lose, the things they leave behind, and how to live on.
On No Harm In Asking, hosts Eric Byron and Michael Kerr are on a journey to gather insights into why podcasts succeed or fail and to explore the myriad of different patterns, structures, topics, techniques, and personalities that have evolved this industry. Through our podcast, we hope to inspire and encourage the next generation of storytellers and visionaries.

Thinking of producing a podcast to showcase your corporate brand? We think every large corporation should explore this opportunity. But getting it right is harder than you might think, requiring effort and clarity of purpose. In this episode Mike and Eric deep dive into Netflixâs podcast for attracting future employees from engineers to creatives and break down why we think Netflix mostly misses the mark with this one.
That said, thereâs still lots to like about the WeAreNetflix Podcast that features employees talking about work and life at Netflix, hosted by Netflix Senior Software Engineer Lyle Troxell.

Many people want to develop something that takes them down a different path than the usual nine-to-five routine. Indeed, the dream of the nomadic lifestyle supported by a podcast represents (to many) the perfect life. But settling on a podcast topic, and one that could be developed into a monetizable business, is always the first obstacle. Is the solution perhaps to share with the world the most challenging, the most sensitive and the most intimate details of your relationship? In this episode, Mike and Eric discuss the pros and cons of this podcast choice and where this could lead.
Life with Steph and Dalt is a podcast about the ups and downs of life as a young couple. By sharing their thoughts and life experiences they hope to inspire others to strengthen their relationships through candid discussion.

Many say this is the podcast that started it all. In fact, a survey of Serial newsletter subscribers revealed that for almost a quarter, Serial was the first podcast they'd ever listened to! Furthermore, with the conviction of Adnan Syed recently overturned as a result of Sarah and her team's work in Season 1, Serial has cemented its place in podcasting history. However, as odd as it sounds, can too much success lead to your downfall? This week Mike and Eric discuss these things and more in our review of Serial.
A podcast from the creators of This American Life, Serial is hosted by Sarah Koenig and tells a single true story over the course of a season. Typically grouped within the true-crime genre, Season 1 investigated the 1999 killing of a Baltimore teenager, Season 2 examined the story of an American Army soldier held for 5 years by the Taliban and Season 3 was an analysis of the American criminal justice system reflected over a year at the Justice Center Complex in Cleveland, Ohio.

Learning from the best of the best. Crime Junkie has been at or near the top of the charts since 2019. With great power (and profits) comes great responsibility. Join Mike and Eric in a discussion around the ethics of profiting off other peopleâs painful stories.
Crime Junkie is a weekly true crime podcast dedicated to retelling many of America's most compelling murders. Host Ashley Flowers takes us through the details of a crime sheâs been obsessing over that week in a straightforward, easy to follow format with suspense twisted in and few âfull body chillsâ.

Are people born podcasters or can the skill be learned? Obviously, it can be learned, but sometimes it's worth taking a look at the people that were clearly born to do it. Ira Glass serves as the director, senior producer, host, administrator, librarian, researcher and (perhaps most importantly) lead visionary for This American Life. To be fair, Ira did put in his time at various newsrooms cutting tape and doing odd jobs, but it very much seems like this was his life's calling.
This American Life is a weekly public radio program and podcast that began in 1995 and now comprises over 780 episodes. The jury is still out as to whether we'd search this one out on a weekly basis, indeed it's a lot to process, but the way they intertwine often three, four or even more seemingly disparate stories into a cohesive unit is pure genius.
Heard by more than 2 million listeners each week on over 500 public radio stations in the U.S., and with another 2.3 million people downloading each episode as a podcast, there are many great lessons in here for any podcaster.

S-Town, a seven "chapter", 6-plus hour podcast was released on March 28, 2017. The podcast was downloaded a record-breaking 10 million times in four days, and had been downloaded over 40 million times just a few months later. This week Mike and Eric review S-Town, along with The Trojan Horse Affair, Brian Reed's follow-up to S-Town. Drawing on both comparisons and contrasts between the 2 series, we attempt to highlight the techniques and styles that makes Brianâs podcasts so ground-breaking and a must-listen for anyone doing podcasts that involve storytelling.
S-Town begins when a middle-aged man, living in an Alabama town he despises, emails Brian and asks him to investigate a murder that he believes has been covered up by the local police. In The Trojan Horse Affair, an unlikely duo chases down the origins of a mysterious letter that caused a national scandal in England.

This week Mike and Eric review the podcast Freakonomics Radio hosted by Stephen J. Dubner. We also take a look at his sister show No Stupid Questions that he co-hosts with research psychologist Angela Duckworth. Looking at both shows, we debate why we believe FR comes across as a much more engaging show than NSQ despite the likability of Angela and the similar goals of each podcast.
Freakonomics Radio attempts to discover the hidden side of everything and tells you things you always thought you knew (but didnât) and things you never thought you wanted to know (but do). Indeed, they do a great job in this superbly done podcast!

For the finale of our short series on sports podcasting, Mike and Eric review a six-part special on Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck hosted by Zak Keefer that he did for The Athletic Football Show. In this review we discuss the sports storytelling genre, one that we feel is open to many and underutilize by sports podcasters. We also talk about the growth of The Athletic and how they grew into a force to be reckoned with.
The Athleticâs flagship football podcast covers the NFL and breaks down the biggest stories throughout the world of football. On LUCK, the series explores the fundamental question, why did one of the greatest quarterback prospects of all-time end up walking away from the game before he turned 30?

Continuing on with our short series on sports podcasting, Mike and Eric look at the show that, in our opinion, set the bar for all that followed. Originally a half-hour TV show on ESPN that began airing in 2001, it is now available as a podcast with over 200 episodes.
For all the 1 or even 2 hour-plus sports podcasts out there, it's important to look at what can be delivered in 26 minutes with a rigid format all while mixing in debate, often an interview, and numerous other elements to make it original and fun.
Inserted clips and sound bites were taken from the PTI 20 documentary. You can check it out on YouTube here:

This week we try something new as we kick off Season 2 of the No Harm In Asking pod where Eric and Mike debate what makes a great sports podcast.
After listening to dozens of sports podcasts, as well as looking at innovative formats from radio and television, we discuss how you might get started in this game if you don't come from a journalism or athletic background based on some that have done it. We also suggest some things to avoid that will help give your podcast a chance in this highly competitive genre.

Were we too confident go in to our podcast? What have we learned? What has surprised us? Are we having fun? Who is our tribe? These and other questions are discussed as Mike and Eric look back at the first 20 episodes of our podcast.

This week we go back to the one that started it all, well, at least for Mike.
From a little town in Southwestern Ontario to Toronto to Washington to the world, it seems obvious that few can tell a story like the truly talented, and always inquisitive, Mr. Gladwell. As well, for those out there doing 1 hour or even 2 hour-plus podcasts, it's worth listening to what a master of the trade can pack into just a half hour.
In this episode Michael Kerr and Eric Byron tackle why we believe this podcast is always a pleasure and a privilege to listen to.
Revisionist History is Malcolm Gladwellâs journey through the overlooked and the misunderstood. Every episode re-examines something from the past â an event, a person, an idea, even a song â and asks whether we got it right the first time.
This week we focus on Malcolm's recent Season 7 episodes, including "In Triplicate" and "The Magic Wand Experiment". We also listened to a few back in Season 6 for our review, including "Project Dillard", "Lord of the Rankings" and "I Love You Waymo".
