Episode 132: Jeff Schmidt 2019 – Ryan Drean

Another returning guest, Jeff Schmidt is back for a very specific reason: He is producing some of the biggest and most successful podcasts available. Jeff is atop-tier radio imaging producer and sound designer based in the Bay Area. Most recently, as I mentioned, he’s focused on podcast production. In this “new” podcast realm he has produced DR. DEATH, DIRTY JOHN, FEAR, OVER MY DEAD BODY, IMAGINED LIFE, GLADIATOR, The “INSIDE” shows, well…I could go on and on.

I wanted to get a deep look at what goes into the creation of these high-production-value shows that have simply blown up in the last 3 to 5 years. And, in my opinion, it’s only been in the last 1 to 3 years that have seen podcasts finally become ubiquitous. I try to discuss it all from how he started to the workload and the money and the general process from start to finish. I found it all very interesting and hope you do too!
