0:00.0	You're listening to Podcasting Made Simple. I'm your host, Alex San Felipe. For this episode's
0:06.8	guide and resources, please visit podpros.com slash 211. And now let's get to the episode.
0:14.7	Did you know that 90% of people who start a podcast stop or fail within the first 12 months of the

1:12.2	and you've heard me say before you've ever heard me talk about podcasting. Number one, the first
1:16.3	thing every podcaster should do right now is develop your why. Develop your why. What is your reason for
1:23.1	podcasting? Who does it serve? How does it serve? These are questions that we need to ask as podcast
1:30.4	host. So first and foremost, what is the reason for your podcast? You need to sit down and write this on a
1:36.3	piece of paper. Like, don't even write on your computer. Start off on a piece of paper with a pen. I don't
