JerryvonKramer Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 You can now support the PWO-PTBN Podcast Network by donating here: https://www.powr.io/plugins/paypal-button/view?id=1379254 Hi all,When I started doing WTBBP with Chad three years ago, obviously neither of us had any idea what would become of it. We were both fans of Will's podcasts and other shows. About a year later, when my website was nuked for "excessive bandwidth usage", we opted to join Sound Cloud for the new home of WTBBP. It was expensive, but the extra space meant that we no longer had to worry about web hosts complaining about bandwidth. Soon after, Will came on board bringing his old shows and listeners with him. And I launched Titans. Then Steven brought his show on the feed. And over the past year output of content has exploded. There are off-shoot shows galore as well as Kris Zellner's awesome new show Exile on Badstreet. So a feed that once just had a couple of shows on it, now has about a dozen. And you get about 3-4 new shows every week. As a wrestling fan, I know a lot of the content is high quality: historically informed and often discussing things you just don't see discussed elsewhere.The feed, I think, has really become a community thing. "By the community, for the commuinity".None of us do this to make any money, we do it for the love of wrestling. Sometimes hours of work -- in research, in editing, in setting up the site pages, in actually recording -- go into these shows. We're grateful just that people listen and that is mostly enough to keep us going. However, subscribing to a Soundcloud account big enough to support all these shows isn't cheap, so this is my one-time ask: "any donations would be greatly appreciated".You can donate by following this link: https://www.powr.io/plugins/paypal-button/view?id=1379254Or by finding it through our Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/PWO-PTBN-Podcast-Network/1495440050725136Even if it is just a few bucks, anything will help with the running costs. And even if you don't, we'll keep pumping out shows if you guys keep listening Cheers,Parv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bix Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 You can upload the files to archive.org, put them in the feed, and not have to pay for anything. Plenty of fairly large podcasts do it. You wouldn't have to play for anything other than maybe hosting the blog itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted August 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 If you'd like to do that by uploading 323 tracks across over 12 different shows (including two that you feature on prominently yourself), manually plugging each one into an RSS feed, and ensuring that the URL of every entry is re-edited on PTBN, be my guest.

Well, they have a bulk uploader. So that part is actually really easy. That said I'll PM you about the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted August 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Guys, we are not long till the annual renewal date. Some people have sent in donations, and very grateful. We are not that far from target. Anything you can send will help, even if it's a couple of bucks. Many many thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
