204-Stop, Collaborate And Listen

The true crime podcasting community has come together for the holiday season to discuss all things true crime podcasting. Over the next two weeks, ten shows will be dropping bonus episodes sharing these conversations. In this episode, I'm joined by Josh Hallmark (True Crime Bullsh**) and Javier Leiva (Pretend) to discuss how we started our shows, true crime as an industry, how we've grown and lessons we've learned, cases we've covered, monetizing true crime, television, the future of our shows, and more. HAPPY HOLIDAYS! :) Our Sponsors:* Check out Diet Smoke and use my code AMP20 for a great deal: https://www.dietsmoke.com* Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code AMP for a great deal: https://happymammoth.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/affirmative-murder/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
