Make it Better Than "Just Another Podcast"
A growing number of people are creating and sharing podcasts. Despite the increased competition, there is still demand for better, unique and different.
​
We'll focus on an ideal topic, show format, on-air style and listener connection.
Ideal Topic
A passion for a topic is important, but that topic or theme also has to be able to generate episodes for 20-40+ weeks a year. We'll make sure you pick the ideal topic for your show and audience.
On-Air Style
Along with helping you develop a comfort zone behind the microphone, we'll develop an on-air style that is uniquely yours.
Show Format
A lot of business or industry podcasts sound the same. Your audience probably listens to some of them. So, we'll develop a format that empowers your show to stand out from others.
Listener Connection
Everything we do to develop and optimize your show format and on-air presence aims to engage and grow your podcast audience.

Proven On-Air and Podcast Experience
The Power of Creativity & Communication
My audio production work began in 2007 at the Dallas/Fort Worth NPR affiliate and evolved into podcasting in 2011. For the next 13 years, podcasting became a big part of my work as a host, producer and consultant.
Podcasting Career Highlights
2011
First show and Interview success
Despite being a newbie, I quickly developed a solid reputation with publicists, agents and managers as a prepared, high-quality interviewer and producer. I had the opportunity to talk with several TV & film actors.
2013
Creativity and Consulting
I launched a unique pop culture show that grew its audience by 7x in a year. I later evolved it into a network, hosting and producing several shows. One podcast grew a loyal listenership of 3,000+. Another creative show caught the attention of the Agent Carter writers and Hayley Atwell. She was a guest on the show later that year.
2016
Business and Podcasts
After helping colleagues launch and improve successful shows, I started incorporating podcast services into my offerings. I've been working with solopreneurs and businesses on podcasting ever since.
Dan Zehr
Host, Brand Director
Scott Murray is one of the most professional, polished, and informed members of the podcasting world that I have had the pleasure of working with. His organization and planning are top-notch, as is his knowledge of media, both behind-the-scenes, as well as on the microphone and on camera. He would be an asset to any company!
Daniel Manu
Communications Manager
I had the pleasure of speaking with Scott on his podcasts during my time at Television Without Pity. Scott was a pleasure to work with behind the scenes, and a deft, articulate and extremely well-informed host to speak with on the air. Always enjoyed my time talking with him, and appreciated the opportunity to appear on his shows.
Jeff Takacs
Director of Content
"We used Scott's skills for blogging, videography & editing, maintenance & upkeep of YouTube, and podcasting (an area in which he definitely qualifies as an expert). I highly recommend him!"
