I’m Walli Walker, and this is How To Podcast in 5 Minutes, brought to you by Retrospection Multimedia. In this series, I’ll be bringing you quick, bite-sized podcast tips to help get you in the mood to start your own podcast. My goal is to be informative, to give helpful advice, and to spark creative ideas for your podcast so that you can make your mark in podcasting.

Here’s a little bit about me before you dive into this podcast. My first podcast was started in 2018, and is still running to this day. It’s called Retrospection Radio Theatre, and it’s a mental health-based audio drama with seasons and special episodes. Over the course of those years, I also ran Frequency Drift, a podcast series following stories I found interesting. Additionally, I ran Retrospection Radio Hour which was a discussion podcast journeying through the decades of the 1900s. 

I also run Retrospection Multimedia, a multimedia company where we edit podcasts and manage social media for clients. I specialize in individuals and small businesses looking to start podcasts, and I run multiple podcasts for various clients. Some categories include women’s fitness, entrepreneurship, progressive Christianity, just to name a few.
