“This public radio doc is a symptom of the problem and not the problem.”
We all know what needs to happen (RadioInk) to avoid this and keep it out of the press. Declaring it a war just brings more negative attention to the problem that does exists that is being referred to as the “Wild West”.

Here is episode #7 of the “My Digital Life Show” for Tuesday, July 16th, 2013. This episode topic is about “The Future of Radio and Podcasting from 2005 to 2013 with Radio Expert/Consultant Mark Ramsey.
In this episode we cover these more specific questions:
How Podcasts and Radio Content will blend together in the Car?
Possible changes coming to broadcast radio?
Does radio needs some of the current podcasts talent to succeed now and in the future?
I interviewed Mark Ramsey back in 2005 for my ITConversations Network “WebTalk with Rob Greenlee” show. Back then, we both talked about the potential of podcasting in the face of shrinking radio audiences and how major celebrities will lead to audience growth in podcasting in the early days of podcasting. Here is a link to that full interview from 2005. I replay a key 9 minutes from that interview in the current episode here.
Fast forward 8 years, to 2013 and how have things changed and did we get it right back in 2005? What are the predictions for radio and podcasting going forward from 2013?
