Hey guys, it's summertime. It's the perfect time to create your own podcast. Spotify has

0:04.8

a platform that lets you make one really easily, and you can distribute it everywhere and

0:09.4

even earn money all in one place for free. It's called Spotify for podcasters, and here's

0:14.6

how it works. Spotify for podcasters lets you record and edit podcasts right from your

0:19.1

phone or computer, and so no matter what your setup is like, you can start creating today,

0:23.9

and then Spotify will distribute your podcast everywhere that podcasts are available.

0:28.9

And best of all, it's free with no catch. So if you've got a message to get out and

some time to begin, I highly recommend you give it a try. Download the Spotify for podcasters

Come on now. How's it going with you and your kids? You know, there's something raising
