b'This weekend was the 20th anniversary of 911 in the United States. I recently had a slight health scare, so I brought on a friend of the show Gordon Firemark to answer the question, "What happens to your podcast if you die." We also get the last report from Glenn Hebert as he winds up his tour to meet his audience. I also am trying something new with my book Profit From Your Podcast.\\xa0 Sponsor: Novel Marketing Podcast A lot of podcasters plan to write a book but they don\'t know where to start. Our sponsor the Novel Marketing Podcast is here to help. Thomas Umstattd Jr is a wealth of knowledge and he can get you going in the right direction. Check out https://www.schoolofpodcasting.com/author What Happens After You Publish Your First Episode Today I talk about School of Podcasting student Mark Hasara who has a great background as a speaker, author and pilot but was still nervous to release his first episode.\\xa0 When he released it he was amazed at how many downloads he received. We mention "The Feed" from Libsyn which shares industry stats. Currently, 50% of podcasters get less than 131 downloads per episode, and 50% get more.\\xa0 What Happens to Your Podcast if You Die? I talk with Gordon Firemark about what happens to your podcast if you die. While we all plan to be around much longer, taking the time to designate what happens to your show if you are no longer able to continue (or if you\'re dead). This is an awkward conversation to have with people, but you should be planning your estate as well, so don\'t forget your podcast (and dog) when you create directions on what to do with your show.\\xa0 You might check out the book, "I\'m dead, now what?" on Amazon For more information about Gordon see thepodcastlawyer.com Glenn\'s Reflections on His Tour Glenn "The Geek" Hebert is from the Horse Radio Network. He went on a five-week tour with thousands of miles across the east coast to meet his listeners and sponsors.\\xa0 He loved his Zoom Podtrack P4, and thought staying three days in one place was the best. Next tour he will also plan some time to site see (as they didn\'t do any). He said that even though traveling in an RV is different, after some time you just get used to it (and it beats hotels, or staying in the listener\'s homes).
