Good to see Cliff back in a seat that not only guided me but thousands of others in the world of podcasting. Looking forward to seeing his new podcast and learning again from him!!

I met Cliff Ravenscraft many years ago and have listened to him incessantly to understand how to create a world-class podcast. If it weren't for this show and the work of Cliff, I know that the many podcasts that I went on to found would likely not nearly be as good as they are currently, including the Social Media Marketing Podcast and the AI Explored Podcast. I owe a lot of my success to this podcast and this man.

You’d be hard pressed to find someone who has been so passionate, knowledgable, and helpful when it comes to podcasting — and for so long — as Cliff. He’s the original podcast consultant.

VERY few have as much experience and knowledge on podcasting as Cliff, and he brings excellence to every episode.

Cliff consistently offers great value in his podcast that matches his focused help in coaching. Highly recommended.

I am so excited! I’ve been listening to podcasts for over two decades. I started my first show back in 2009 because of inspiration from the original incarnation of Podcast Answer Man, and I can honestly say that this is by far my favorite podcast of all time. The return of Podcast Answer Man feels like a welcome homecoming. What makes this show stand out is that it goes beyond “which mic should I buy” or “how to edit an episode.” Cliff Ravenscraft delivers deep, honest, and actionable insight on the strategy, business, and mindset behind podcasting. How to treat a show as more than a hobby, how to grow it, and how to make it part of a sustainable business. Over the years, I soaked up so much technical advice from this show, but the real value was always in the strategic side: how to attract the right audience, build consistency, and leverage podcasting for long-term growth. If you’ve ever wondered what makes a podcast “work,” what separates the hobby-casters from the ones who create impact (and income), this is the podcast for you. Cliff doesn’t just preach. He draws from decades of experience and real results. He understands the psychology of podcasting, not just the gear and workflow, but what truly resonates with listeners over time. To old fans: your favorite podcast is back. To newer podcasters: if you want a clear guide through the noise of gear reviews and trendy advice, a steady framework grounded in real world experience. Trust me — just hit “Subscribe” and give this a listen. Whether you’re just starting out, restarting, or trying to scale, Podcast Answer Man will equip you with clarity, direction, and honest encouragement. If you care about doing podcasting right, creating something that lasts, builds audience, and supports a business (or a meaningful hobby), you’d be hard-pressed to find a better show. Five stars, no question. — Mark Mason (MarkMason.com)

I’ve been listening to Cliff Ravenscraft for well over a decade and I can honestly say no one deserves the title “Podcast Answer Man” more than he does. Cliff has an almost unbelievable ability to take complex technical and mindset topics and break them down into bite-sized, immediately actionable pieces that even total beginners can understand and apply right away. What sets Cliff apart from every other podcasting “guru” is that he genuinely cares about your success. You can feel it in every episode. He’s not just sharing information, he’s rooting for you. Whether you’re just thinking about launching your first show or you’ve been podcasting for years and want to level up, there is always real, tangible value in every single episode. If you’re serious about podcasting (or even just curious), do yourself a favor and subscribe. Cliff doesn’t just teach podcasting. He mentors you toward building something meaningful that can truly change your life and the lives of your listeners. Forever grateful for this show!

Amazing that Cliff continues to bring great value after all these years. A true leader in the space and a must-listen for anyone who wants to level up their podcast.

Cliff Ravenscraft got me started in podcasting a long time ago and I am so excited that he’s going to start up his podcast again! Great value and fun to listen to!

I’m so glad that Cliff is bringing back The Podcast Answer Man Show. Missed listening to his wealth of knowledge on this subject. Not only is he knowledgeable but he’s also entertaining and soothing to listen to. Welcome back PAM!

I started following Cliff’s advice for podcasting about 10 years ago and it continues to serve me well. Even his advice on how to process audio files so they sound good on every device is the process I’ve followed for a decade and still works great. Cliff’s podcasting advice is timeless, practical, and insightful for growing an audience and a successful business around that audience.

So happy for the return of the podcast answer man show! The content is always top notch, and Cliff is an amazingly passionate and giving person. His knowledge surrounding podcasting and online / business coaching is second to none. The information I received both technical and personal has had an amazing impact on my business and life over the last 18 years! Can’t recommend this show enough! Must Listen, and get to know this guy!

Cliff has been instrumental in my development as an entrepreneur. I remember listening to this show forever ago as I was starting my own podcast. His practical tech advice, his passion for helping others, and the way he digs into mindset and how it shapes both your work and your life have all had a massive impact on me. My show is now nearing 500 episodes and my business has grown as a result of what I first learned from Cliff. Grateful for you, Cliff — thank you!
