September 30th marks International Podcast Day™ which is an international celebration of the power of podcasts. To help commemorate and celebrate the day, The Audacious Living Podcast is pleased to welcome Audley Stephenson's former podcasting running mate, Dave Mendonca.
For five seasons, this dynamic duo co-produced and co-hosted the popular NBA podcast, “The Breakdown with Dave & Audley”. It was a fun, high energy call-in basketball talk show featured over 250 entertaining interviews from current/past NBA stars, coaches and celebrity hoops fans and finished its run with over one million downloads.
“We didn't go into that show thinking we're gonna be millionaires. Like we knew this was a new medium, right? We wanted to create our own little media outlet, our own little playground and talk about something that we were really jazzed about. So at the time, I saw this as an opportunity.”
Dave is a former Canadian national television sports reporter, entertainment writer and author of the book, 100 Things Raptors Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die (100 Things...Fans Should Know)
He joins Audley on The Audacious Living Podcast to reflect on their humble and hilarious podcast beginnings, the opportunities that podcasting created for each of them as a result of trying something new, keys to being successful at podcasting and memorable moments from their escapades.
Its a fun show with a lot of great worthwhile lessons. #HappyInternationalPodcastDay #Podcast #Basketball #NBA #Experiences #Successful #Motivational #BestLifeEver #AudaciousLiving #BeAudacious
