Daily Hunt

@rrhoover Thanks Ryan! Yeah, I realize I'm crazy for doing a "daily" podcast (Mon-Thu). I figured I'm spending all this time on Product Hunt each day, I might as well do something useful that others will enjoy. I've always been very curious about the backstories, technologies, and people behind the products we see here everyday. Sometimes the maker of the product will tell the story in a blog post, but not always and I usually don't take the time to search for it. But if there was a place where the stories are shared in real time, and you can count on a new story everyday (Mon-Thu); then maybe I would gain a deeper understanding of how successful products are built. The Daily Hunt is just that! I interview one maker behind one of the popular hunts each day. Then I publish the episode that day! If you don't like founder stories, then you won't like the podcast :) Eventually (pie in the sky) I would like to have small team of people to help interview founders and make producing the episodes a more turn-key operation. But for now it's just me. This podcast is for the Product Hunt community, so you tell me what you want from a daily podcast!

@joshmuccio YES! We've discussed internally how much time to spend telling maker stories ourselves. I'd love to create a destination of written content, video interviews, audio podcasts, etc. highlighting the backstory of the 16-year-old kid that made a cool app to well known CEO's launching a new product. But that takes a lot of time and talent to do right and we need to focus. I love the idea of the community -- yourself and others -- helping tell the story of makers. Let me know how we can help. 👊

@rrhoover @JoshMuccio dig the show, thanks for sharing. +1 subscriber

@rrhoover @erictwillis's Product Hunt Stories [http://makersuccess.com] is another great example of a collection of maker stories. I would LOVE to create what you mentioned ☝️- There isn't a shortage of good stories for sure! It's only a matter of time and resources needed to build the team behind it. Sure sounds fun though! 😀

@joshmuccio So impressed with this man! It was great to be your first interviewee on the show and I'm thrilled that you're using PodClear to record these interviews. Keep up the awesome work!

@rrhoover @christoy @spencer414 Perhaps this is weird, but I can't wait to hear the first round of feedback from listeners! I love doing the show and I'm eager to find ways to make it better. It's not like an app where people submit bugs - the feedback is far more subjective. We shall see! Def think intro/background music is needed.

@rrhoover @spencer414 @joshmuccio I think you should ask founders to pick their own entrance music, ala WWE. May be projecting my own dream though :D

@rrhoover @spencer414 @christoy Whoah! Cool idea. I wonder how that works with licensing? Is there an easy way to give credit and link to the song on iTunes or something?

@brian_lovin Thanks for the support Brian. Yesterday's episode was a lot of fun!

@mdekuijper Thanks Martijn! Here's a link to your episode: https://dailyhunt.co/revue/ Oh, and let me know what you think of the site design Martijn, you've obviously got some mad skillz in UX/Design.

@joshmuccio @mdekuijper loved that episode and being (a small) part of it! Josh is doing a great job, excited to see where this goes!

@alexmuench Thanks Alex! Your episode (https://dailyhunt.co/short/) surprised me! Had no idea you built your app as a final project in university. I'm excited to see what you do next!

@thedavidjohnson Thanks David! If there's anything you think I can do to make the show better, please let me know 👌

@samatrouh Thanks Sam! Today's episode (which tells the story of MY launch today) is about to go live. I don't think today's show will disappoint! #DailyHunt
