Going into my 2nd year on the Podcast World Tour.

Born in Miami, raised in Central Florida, High School in Virginia Beach, College at Florida State and Fresno State University then moved back to the east coast - Atlanta GA where I owned a franchise and later began my podcasting career. And that's my life story in 17 seconds LOL

I began my broadcasting career in California as a radio DJ then built an entertainment company whose staff and crew entertained over 100,000 people.

I got the radio bug early and thought how great it would be to get back into radio interviewing thought leaders which led to becoming the Founder of a Podcast Network.

Within the first 18 months the network generated over 750,000 downloads which evolved into GlobalPodcastStudios.com offering a full range of podcasting services i.e. professional audio engineers, editing, jingle production, and more!

I spend my time now on an online community I created to connect podcasters and podcast guests which allows me to travel full-time as a digital nomad.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I began traveling on the Podcast World Tour and loved it! Now I'm traveling the United States as a digital nomad as the founder of an online community which connects podcast hosts with podcast guests - kinda like couchsurfing but for podcasters and guests. www.PodcastersDirectory.com

I'm working on relaunching the Podcast World Tour which was created as part of our social enterprise initiative where as I visit cities I interview people doing good in their community. One of the tour goals is an awareness campaign to help tell the story of the nonprofit we 'adopted' that works with kids who are born deaf to restore their hearing to 100% eliminating the need to rely on lip reading or sign language!

I have most of my accommodations covered along my journey but when I heard about couchsurfing I thought it seemed like a cool way to meet some interesting people, visit new places and enjoy compelling conversations while living like a local.

Cheers,
Rich

P.S. I often say I'll try "almost" anything twice?
