Erika Ensign of Verity! and many, many other podcasts joined us at the July podcasting meetup to talk about growing a fandom.

Erika is one of the most prolific podcasters I know, and one of the most successful. She has a hand in these:

In this episode, you'll hear a whole lot of wisdom from Erika about such things as: how nerdity and fandom led her to podcasting; how Verity was instigated on Twitter; how to encourage interaction in comments and on social media; the glory and weirdness of meeting fans in real life; how Verity uses Patreon to generate some funds; the benefits of being involved in The Incomparable, a network of nerdy podcasts; how being generous can help you; what makes her a fan of a podcast; and how to keep going when you're not sure anyone is listening.

Erika also has a podcast production business called Castria, which produces this very show. Many thanks to her and Steven for that, and thanks too to these folks: our meetup hosts, Variant Edition; our door prize donors, EDMojis; and our catering sponsor, CafeRista.

Sign up for the Edmonton Podcasting Meetup to meet local podcasters and improve your craft. The next one is planned for Oct. 22.

In this episode, you'll hear my daughter Elizabeth talk about how happy she was to open a bank account at ATB. (Seriously, she was really happy.) Learn more about how to get an account here.

ATB might just listen better than I listen to my own kid. Find out how at atb.com/listen.

You'll also hear a shout-out to two fellow members of the Alberta Podcast Network, powered by ATB.

To follow the ups and downs (but mostly ups, lately!) of FC Edmonton, subscribe to Loyal Company of the River Valley. To celebrate the Canadian national women's soccer team and the teams its players play on, listen to For Kicks.
