79: Women in Podcasting: A Conversation with She Podcasts' Jessica Kupferman
When Jessica Kupferman and I started podcasting in 2013 and 2012, around 10% of podcasts were hosted by women. Today, that number is up to around 30%. An improvement. But not enough.
We need more women in podcasting. We need you!
“That’s why I think independent podcasters are irritated, because don’t call what you’re doing what we’re doing.” -Jess Kupferman re indie podcasters
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why Jess founded the Facebook group that would eventually become She Podcasts—with over 21,000 members
- Why we believe the world needs more women podcasters
- How we define an indie podcaster (hot topic!)
- How women are changing the landscape of podcasting
- What the brand new Sonic Bloom Awards are all about and how you can nominate a woman podcaster
- What She Podcasts LIVE is all about and how you can attend! (I want to meet you there!)
Jess is the CEO and co-founder of She Podcasts and the event planner of She Podcasts LIVE. She is a co-creator of the Sonic Bloom Awards.
