Before we get going, just a reminder that prices go up TONIGHT to join us at Podcast Movement 2024. Register today to join us before that happens!
Happy Thursday, PM Family!
With just two more weekly newsletters to go before the podcasting event of the year gets underway, we’re packed with goodies for you to enjoy, so there’s no time to delay.
If you’ve not yet bought your ticket, now’s the time to do it before prices go up again!
Let’s get into it!
Braindate is an initiative we launched at PM23 and was the biggest hit of the event. Thanks to our friends at NPR Podcasts, we’re bringing it back bigger and better in 2024, and we couldn't be more excited. Braindate helps you tap into the experiences and expertise of your fellow attendees at Podcast Movement.
These are one-on-one or small group conversations based on topics posted by you and fellow attendees in the Braindate Topic Market. They can be used to brainstorm, solve challenges, and share expertise or experiences while meeting new (brilliant!) people.
Post your topic to host a Braindate. Book times to join Braindates hosted by others. Learn something new, and make connections to last a lifetime.
Watch this video to see how it works!
