Show #59: A chat with Shel Holtz about his new podcasting book; plus Podcasters Across Borders 2007

If you’re interested in podcasting, particularly in podcasting for business, you’ll want to hear this interview with my podcasting hero, Shel Holtz, co-author (with Neville Hobson) of How to Do Everything with Podcasting, just published by Osborne. Shel and Neville host one of the best podcasts out there, For Immediate Release: The Hobson and Holtz Report.

I chatted with Shel at a geek dinner in Toronto in late June. Plus, you’ll hear a few tidbits about Podcasters Across Borders 2007, recently held in Kingston, Ontario.

The whole podcast is a just 26 minutes. Please listen and then let me know what you think!
