Welcome to the Post Status Draft podcast, which you can find on iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, and via RSS for your favorite podcatcher. Post Status Draft is hosted by Brian Krogsgard and co-host Brian Richards.
This week the Brians put their brains together and discuss content distribution across various mediums and platforms as well as subscriptions for both digital and physical products. The conversation shifts between different tooling and platforms that exist for enabling content distribution as well as some of the societal shifts that have shaped how we share and consume both content and products.
This is a good episode for anyone who is developing sites and selling solutions around content distribution or subscriptions as well as anyone who is running (or looking to run) a business based around a subscriber model (paid or otherwise).

Great episode. We have been working on solving this exact thing for local newspapers and niche magazine publishers for the past few years using WordPress.
We have a free plugin called Leaky Paywall on the plugin repo: https://wordpress.org/plugins/leaky-paywall/
We’ve seen lots of publishers have success with this method of content distribution and revenue generation.
