A podcast about the pre-columbian Americas which in all honesty would be a Hardcore History knockoff.

Just because you’re a history enthusiast doing a podcast doesn’t mean you are ripping off Dan Carlin, and that is definitely a subject he has not given a lot of attention. You should go for it! I have produced podcasts professionally on the side (I’m a producer/video editor for main job), sorry if you have any questions let me know! And no I’m not talking about how to monetize and all that garbage. If you want to do a passion project, I can give you some resource suggestions (budget friendly) so you’ll be very happy with your results.

People give people shit for starting podcasts, but the fact is it’s not very hard to get one off the ground, you don’t have to invest much, and if you really enjoy it, there’s nothing quite like it. I really value some of the relationships I’ve developed over the years

Edit: cleaned up voice text elements lol

While that is a nice fantasy I am unfortunately spending the grand majority of my time daily filling out job applications and watching coding tutorials at 2x speed.

Unless I receive a grant or some sort of income I can live off of up front I don't have the luxury to do a passion project at this time.

Totally understand. Hope that changes for you soon!
