From the number-one New York Times best-selling McElroy Brothers, creators of the hit podcasts My Brother, My Brother and Me and The Adventure Zone, comes a helpful and hilarious how-to podcast guide covering everything you need to know to make, produce, edit, and promote a podcast...and get rich* doing it! (*Results not guaranteed.)

Justin, Travis, and Griffin McElroy made their names as “advice giving brothers who have no business giving advice” (New York Times) on the hit podcast My Brother, My Brother and Me. But while they may not have the best relationship or workplace advice, they certainly make you laugh, and they do know a thing or two about podcasting.

In fact, the McElroy Brothers have spent the last decade making podcasts, including My Brother, My Brother and Me; The Adventure Zone; Sawbones; and more. From their start, independently producing and releasing the early episodes of My Brother, My Brother and Me, to their 11 currently available podcasts, the McElroys have become experts in creating successful podcasts. And now, they want to share what they’ve learned with you.

In Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You), the McElroy Brothers will walk you through the process of turning an idea into ear candy for legions of fans, sharing their expertise on everything from deciding on an effective name (definitely not something like My Brother, My Brother and Me), to what type of microphone to use (definitely not one from the video game Rock Band), to making lots and lots of money (spoiler: you probably won’t).

A must-listen for anyone interested in podcasting, Everybody Has a Podcast (Except You) shares the keys to success as well as the mistakes to avoid and draws on the vast experiences of three of the funniest and most successful podcasters working today.

The McElroys have done it again!

These boys have taken over every corner of media and books are no exception. This book is not only entertaining but also helpful for new and upcoming podcasters.

Lot's of obvious advices, good for an entry level

Things like "be a good person" or "don't sell a t-shirt for 20 if it costs 30" are among the most obvious and less insightful tips, but besides that, there are some interesting advices aswell. An entertaining listen for sure!

Genuinly informative and funny

A very great listen wether you really intend to actually start a podcast or not.

Fantastic for even an experienced podcaster

Every part of this book is perfect in length, easy to understand and useful.

They break down complex concepts in a way that I've struggled to do when explaining things about recording, social media and the general point of so much of it.

I've been podcaating for years and this was a fun way to school myself on the basics again. For anyone wondering about whether to pick up the physical or audio version, do both! and audio one for yourself because audio is great. And a physical one for the person you know you want to suggest the book to. it's just harder to hand over your login info to get them to listen to it.

amazingly informative

this is super helpful for anyone looking for some insight for the ins and outs of the world of podcasting. even if you already have a show and you're just looking to increase your audience or figure out how to start monetizing it, there was loads of primo information.

got to love those good good boys

Don't reinvent the wheel! Get this book!

My partner and I have been planning a podcast in the very narrow niche of veterinary practice management. Over the last several months, waiting for this book to be available, I have read several other similar books. I found this one to be the most informative and down to earth.

Fun and informative :)

Lots of good advice, helpful for overcoming that first starting hurdle. It covers just about everything you need to start a podcast in an approachable, nonjudgmental way. Some of the jokes and japes fell flat for me, but overall I enjoyed those signature McElroy goofs. Worth a read if you're truly unsure where and how to start a podcast!

Exactly what I was looking for

Bouncing around pod ideas for some time. This is what I needed. I will come back to this down the road to help me along the way in creating a podcast.

A good honest retelling of their success story.

I knew a good chunk of what they where saying already, but there was still some worth while nuggets of wisdom that I genuinely didn't know. A plus also was that it was entertaining. But while I feel it was an honest retelling of their story, they also promoted their shows, other books, and etc every chance they could which as someone who is listening to learn made the book sometimes feel like a bit of a cop-out.

Another great book from the McElroys

I have no intention of ever doing a podcast so the content doesn't really apply to me, but it seemed like a good overview of podcasting details that someone who does want to start would benefit from hearing. I downloaded the audio book simply because I enjoy the array of podcasts the McElroy family puts out. This book gave me the chance to enjoy more content from them and to gain an appreciation for the work all of them put in to create shows I love. If you are interested in the how-to of podcasting or simply enjoy listening to the various McElroy voices as you go about your day, this is an audio book for you.
