Q & A with Wade Wingler from The Indy Vegan Family Podcast<\/h2>\n
\n

When did you start podcasting?<\/h3>\n

We just started Indy Vegan Family<\/a> in February when my doctor told me that I had to change to a vegan diet, but we have been podcasting on other shows for a couple of years prior to that.<\/p>\n

Why did you start podcasting?<\/h3>\n

When my doctor told me to change my diet to all plants, no meat, no dairy and no eggs, to better control my diabetes it meant a lifestyle change for our whole family.<\/p>\n

During the first few days we realized that we could share our journey and what we were learning with others.\u00a0 We started a blog right away and recorded our first podcast episode a few weeks later.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your show about?<\/h3>\n

We live in the Indianapolis area, are a family of five and are in the process of shifting to a totally vegan lifestyle.\u00a0 We include recipes, reviews of restaurants and cookbooks and plenty of insight into how this dietary change extends into other areas of our lives.<\/p>\n

Our kids range in age from 16 years to 6 months old and veganism is a totally different experience at each age and developmental stage.<\/p>\n

In fact, our picky teenager refuses to be vegan but at least tries new recipes.\u00a0 Her perspective in an otherwise vegan household is angsty and interesting for sure!<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your podcasting set-up? Hardware, software, CMS, etc.<\/h3>\n

We use a Heil PR\u201320 microphone with a Roland R\u201305 recorder.\u00a0 The production is done in Adobe Audition and we host with Libsyn.\u00a0 Our blog is a WordPress site hosted on BlueHost.<\/p>\n

How have you promoted your podcast?<\/h3>\n

Our entire family contributes to the show so we all work on promotion.\u00a0 (At least the ones old enough to use the computer!)<\/p>\n

We promote via Facebook, Twitter, cross-promotion with other food bloggers, cross-promotion with the restaurants we review and we\u2019re planning to cover an upcoming national Veg-Fest event that will result in some significant exposure.<\/p>\n

What do you know now that you wish you knew when you started?<\/h3>\n

Set up a production schedule that you can deal with and stick to it.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t over-extend yourself and burn out.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not loving your own show, others won\u2019t either.<\/p>\n

We realized from a previous show that a weekly podcast from us was too much.\u00a0 Indy Vegan Family is a monthly show, but we plan to throw in some bonus episodes from time to time.<\/p>\n
