    Podmatch still hot!
    Podmatch has been hot for years, and Alex keeps it going with accessible episode hosts with relevant topics for podcasters. He also reached out when we first started our podcast and gave specific positive reinforcement, which led to me getting involved in their excellent content & community on their website. Their survey helped me learn about my podcasting style, as well. Definitely recommend getting involved in the Podmatch community, even if just by listening to this pod, if you’re a podcaster or an interested interviewee!
