Ways to Celebrate International Podcast Day
Listen Up!
Take time to tune into your favorite podcasts on September 30. Dedicating an hour—or several—to a few shows not only supports this important medium, but doing so will also inspire and inform you. As you’re streaming your top podcasters, consider finding some new shows to subscribe to. Most importantly, don’t forget to share these shows with your family and friends.
Start a Club
Like a book club, you can invite folks to form a podcast club with you. Once you determine which show to listen to, schedule a date and location to discuss episodes as a group. To make it even more interesting, request a different member to select a new podcast to review each time. If meeting in person, provide refreshments and a comfortable environment for a more conversational feel.
Launch Your Own Show
This is your opportunity to shine and share whatever is on your mind! If you have equipment to record, all you need are ideas and a captive audience. The passion for your topics will not only engage your followers but keep them returning.
Beyond Rent “Can’t Miss” Episodes
Three years ago, we launched Beyond Rent—named one of The Best Property Management Software Podcasts of 2023 by Showdigs. Hosted by Joe Easton, Rent Manager’s Senior Channel Partner Manager, the podcast explores every facet of the property management industry. Each episode of Beyond Rent features a new guest and shares insights into the latest industry news and trends.
In honor of International Podcast Day and the third anniversary of Beyond Rent, we invite you to revisit eight of our most popular episodes.
