Thank you for this little bit of insight, i know a lot of my readers are very pleased with the value they get from your work. I think that in addition to your podcasts, you should set up a separate blog, or a dedicated section on your own blog that has all of your podcast in the streaming audio player.

Best

Hearing what you had to say in regard to "Music News Hooks" gave me more to work with what I have.
Thanks

Thanks Bob! Some of your advice is stuff that seems almost common sense once I hear you say it, but you have a knack for putting these concepts into simple terms that are easy to remember and act upon. Your books and podcast have been a good source of information and encouragement, I appreciate what you do. Thanks!
