In this special bonus episode, I want to share how you can be part of an awesome social good initiative thanks to the good folks at Podchaser and Captivate.

Podchaser is a podcast directory – think of it as the IMDB of podcasting. Here, you can follow shows, follow creators, create lists of your favourite podcasts, and more.

As part of their #Reviews4Good program, Podchaser will donate $0.25 for any review left on their platform to Meals on Wheels America's Go Further fund. Additionally, for every review left on an individual episode, they will donate a further $0.25.

Not only that, but any time a podcaster replies to a review, they will donate a further $0.25.

Double the Donation Thanks to Captivate!

But it gets even better! My podcast host, Captivate (disclaimer: I'm on the Captivate team) will match these donations for every review (show or episode) as well as podcaster reply, up to $1,000.

So, technically, if you leave a review for your favourite podcast, and the podcater replies to that review, the donation to the #Reviews4Good program will be $1.00, thanks to Captivate's match.

This initiative runs through the month of April, so, what are you waiting for?

Hey, welcome to this special episode of Podcaster Stories. This

week's going to be a really quick one, and it's

about a, a, a cool initiative by the folks over

at Podchaser the is Lake, The IMDP of Podcasts, and

it's a great place to find new podcasts and new

creators create your own lists, et cetera, as well as

real leave reviews and ratings from your favorite shows and

episodes. And what they are doing during the month of

April is they've got the Reviews for good initiative and

Reviews for Good is partnering with Meals on Wheels, America,

to help provide food aid, wellness checks, et cetera, for

Seniors impacted by COVID 19 in the us. Right now,

it doesn't matter that you're not in the U S

I'm in Canada.

It's just a great initiative to be part of the

van, you know, to give back to, and it's really

simple to give back to it in the month of

April, thanks to Podchaser. And also My podcast host Captivate,

which I'm a part of the team as well. So

a lot of just clean or that, but basically what

Podchaser is doing for Reviews for Good is for every

Review that has left for a podcast in the month

of April, they will donate 25 cents to Meals on

Wheels. America is Go Further fund for every episode Review.

They will also donate 25 cents. And if the Podcaster

replies to that, have you either a day for the

show or episode, Totani a father of twenty-five cents. So

essentially they can be at an eight and 50 cents

per Review that you'll leave it for your favorite podcast

or your favorite episode.

However, thanks to Captivate. We are going to match these

reviews before show level and episode level, as well as

it applies from the podcast. And in question, and we

will match that up to an amount of a thousand

dollars. So for example, you'll leave a review for your

favorite podcast and a podcast that applies that's 50 sense

from Podchaser, but that will also be 50 cents from

Captivate, making a dollar, going to Meals and Wheels go

for the fund for that one single review, which is

pretty awesome. So if you want to be involved and

you want to help, you know, my little humble should

get some more interviews as well on Podchaser, or you

can do this really easily head on over to Podcaster

Stories dot com forward slash Review, and you'll see the

instructions there on how you can leave it to view.

It will take you over to the Podchaser website. We

can create a quick account using, you know, either your

social profile, our Gmail or something like that. And then

you can leave a review for the show and I'll

be notified. I can jump on and say, thank you

and apply it to the Review. No, because my podcast,

as I mentioned, has hosted on Captivate. Not only will

that a Review get 50 cents because of your review

and my reply from Podchaser, it will kill a Further

50 cents from Captivate, meaning that your view has no

send $1 to the Meals on Wheels. America is Go

Further fund, which is pretty awesome. You can go to

Podcaster Stories dot com forward slash Review, scroll down a

little bit. Do you see the purchase?

So details, head on over saying up, leave a review

and you're good to go. And it's just a really

cool where to help Seniors. I have been impacted by

the COVID-19 pandemic. So again, thanks. So you got involved.

I really appreciate it. And let me know if you

do a little bit of youth, like I say, I'll

get in a fight, but you know, send me a

quick email or tweet me at Danny Brown CA and

I'd be more than happy to give a shout-out on

a shot. Thanks a lot. We'll be back with the

final episode in season three next week, I'll be taken

a small break a juror the month of may. I'm

trying to remember what month it would. And so we

take out a small break during a month of may

to a regroup, RE you going to re-energize myself, or

if you're like, Oh, and then the returning with season

four in between that I we'll have to use your

end of season recap on some other details of bonus

episodes until then take care and stay there.
