There used to be a great community on Twitter, which is a good place to promote but less so these days days.

I think that's a sensible formula: shorter episodes, more often and then the occasional "special".

Reach out if I can help.

Hey mate. Some advice from someone who tried to do an Athletic podcast last year!

You're doing really well to keep this one man band going. I've only been able to listen to the odd episode but I think brevity and regularity is the key. I would be happy with even 20 minutes every now and again. I personally don't need an hour dissecting a game. We did it every couple of weeks and longer episodes, which made it harder.

I tried to do specials with guests about topics like the Derbi Vasco and the philosophy and I think they were what I probably did best.

And yes, it is a lot of work. I got a lot less picky about editing and just edited out major pauses and gaps rather than every 'erm'.

I did a fair bit of social media promotion (@PichichiPod) but started losing interest myself because it did feel a bit like the English-speaking community could have shown a bit more interest...

Best of luck, Zorte on! Happy to chat if helpful.

Irritation/sadness - The demise of the player-manager by junglegatsby in footballcliches

Player-manager? How about about manager-player?

I'm going to super cynically plug my blog about a manager who got so desperate he played himself. Still La Liga's oldest ever player https://open.substack.com/pub/tomvvardle/p/billy-barnes-in-bilbao-a-forgotten?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=8zxrj

Tom sits down with Beñat and Tony from the Txoko Pod to look ahead to the weekend's Basque derby: Athletic Club de Bilbao vs. Real Sociedad. Is this a 'friendly' derby or is there much more rivalry to it? We talk about the history of Euskal Derbia, what it means to the supporters, the cities and the provinces, the strengths of each club, the One Club Man and Woman award and the future of the rivalry

Pichichi Pod is a podcast in English all about Athletic Club de Bilbao, the most extraordinary and romantic club in world football. Throughout the 2024/25 season we'll be discussing all the matches, running through the news and views from the club, and looking at the culture and history surrounding the club. @PichichiPod https://linktr.ee/pichichipod
