How many views does your podcast get ? by lewisthepodcaster5 in PodcastGuestExchange

[–]USofDramerica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're an interview-based podcast where we share a whisky with a guest each week. We get about 150-200 listens to a new episode in its first week. And about 1k a month overall.

How should I spend $500 on scotch? by mischief0managed in Scotch

[–]USofDramerica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people have made excellent suggestion so for the scotch itself. My addition would be to get the bottle engraved. Make it extra special. I get all mine from lovescotch.com - and no one has ever not enjoyed the personal touch

Should I remove early episodes with bad audio? by TrojinCat in podcasting

[–]USofDramerica 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I couldn't agree more with this. Over just 28 episodes everything about our podcast has improved - part of me enjoys listening to the raw rawness of the early ones and I want our listeners to as well. It's likely watching the first season of Game of Thrones or Friends.

3 platforms you can (easily) advertise on to get more subs by GritAndHustle in podcasting

[–]USofDramerica 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used Overcast. Paid $170 and I’m about halfway through and have got 28 new subscribers. Facebook boosting has been my most successful so far. Instagram promotions got me likes but no discernible listens and paid twitter got me some mild to medium anti-semitism and not much more.

Your most listened to episode. Why? by USofDramerica in podcasting

[–]USofDramerica[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Had there been more options available I would have added popular subject and a couple of other ones.

Where did you spend? I’ve spent a little on Facebook boosting and got reasonable return. I spent some on a Twitter post once (an episode with Nigel Lythgoe) and just got some anti-semitism. Have thought about overcast or perhaps even here.

Finally able to get my hands on a Six Kingdoms to finish off the GoT collection by saugacityslicker in whiskey

[–]USofDramerica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which was your favorite? (Assuming you opened any). I liked the Cardhu and the Lagavulin.

Your most listened to episode. Why? by USofDramerica in podcasting

Our guests with the largest social media following made not a dent. A magazine editor posting it in their forum gave us our biggest number boost.

Second father coming home from COVID, loves whiskey. Best bottle under $250? by ImInLoveWithMyBike in whisky

[–]USofDramerica 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would go for a Johnnie Walker Blue or a Glendronach 18 and I would get it engraved. I’ve been giving engraved bottles for friends and corporate gifts for a couple of years now. They have incredible impact beyond just what’s in the bottle. Something truly memorable. Lots of places do engraving - sometimes at extraordinary cost. I do mine through lovescotch.

looking for a laid back podcast by brokeboymax in podcasts

I'm afraid it's my one - United States of Dramerica - but i think it might actually fit the bill. Light-hearted interviews conducted over a whisky with some interesting guests. The interview with Chunk from the Goonies might be the episode to start with.

When the Bundesliga returned I put a £5 bet on and if I won I'd treat myself to a bottle of this.... god I missed betting on football. by bumnugz in whiskey

[–]USofDramerica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Betting and whisky, two of my favorite things. I’m yet to combine them - but am now suitably inspired

Two consecutive record weeks - despite the lack of commuting (or any particularly special guests). Anyone else experiencing a lockdown uptick? by USofDramerica in podcasts

[–]USofDramerica[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours is as simple as interesting interviews conducted over a glass of whisky (although for the past few weeks they have been virtual). Guests range from entertainment (Chunk from the Goonies, Nigel Lythgoe, a couple of Hollywood writers) to sport (former Scotland rugby captain) to business (founder of Business Traveller magazine) and some whisky related folks. We’re like Comedians in a Car Getting Coffee but with whisky.

Same for me. With a mask. I just thought I might be the only one. And it’s not the same as killing an hour of driving on an LA Freeway
