As tools for podcasting have evolved, the question of, “Can I start a podcast” has changed to, “should I start a podcast?” And importantly, will it help you grow your business?

Morten Rand-Hendriksen is an incredible developer and teacher who brings it all to his online courses. In this extra-long Season 3 Finale, Morten and I run the gamut on topics, including courses, empathy, technology, WordPress, and more.

In this episode, we get pretty deep into the woods on how he built WP101, and in typical Shawn fashion, he imparts some great advice all along the way. This one is a little longer that usual, but it’s packed full of fantastic content, including his recording setup.
