• Question of the month and your knowledge of podcasting
• Learning the best ways to podcast
• The up to date changes that would affect the day to day podcaster.
• You consistently provide concise, actionable advice to help podcasters be successful.
• Interviews with interesting podcasters  and how-to content
• Multiple topics and specialized guests this way I can identify with other podcasters who’ve encountered the same trials & tribulations in connecting with their audience
• I really like the real-world examples you cite of how people have made (or are making) their podcasts successful.
• The high-quality production, how much you assuage my concerns about podcasting, identify speech patterns that drive me crazy, and overall the feeling that you're actually talking to me.

• The interviews with industry personalities and gear/service reviews. But most of all, it's just your personality that keeps me listening.
• Your humor,  varied topics, pace, transitions, and awesome ideas and content.
• I love the end of episode bloopers.

• The same podcasters on all the time, how about some variety? For example, if the horse podcasting guy is on, I turn the show-off, sorry, but it's just not my thing. Other than t
