What exactly is the SMG Podcast Marathon about?
The SMG Podcast Marathon is all about celebrating indie podcasts and creativity. We want our marathon to connect seasoned and newer podcasters alike to each other and to the fans of podcasts. It’s a chance for people to see their favorite podcasts live and hopefully discover some new favorites. Our marathon is full of shows created by people who love podcasting. It’s about creativity, and expression, and the independent spirit, not a means of showcasing corporate produced content and agendas. It’s about having fun in a great setting and geeking out to yourpassions. The SMG Podcast Marathon is what happens when podcasters that are truly excited about their interests get a chance to share first hand with fans that are just as passionate about their own.
What can you expect this year?
How about 13 hours of live podcasting? Sounds cool, right? We’ve got 20+ shows covering a wide variety of topics starting at 8am and running until 9pm. As always, fans attending will witness how diverse the podcast community is, hopefully breaking the misconception that podcasting is only done by middle aged guys hiding in their basements. What can you expect? A good time that’s safe, all-inclusive, fun, and overflowing with creativity.
