Podcaster Dan Cummins (@dancummins) runs four—yes, FOUR—popular podcasts. But success didn’t come easy. Media gatekeepers slammed the door in his face, rejected him, and told him his ideas about horror movies and internet conspiracies were too weird for a podcast. So he did things his way. Today, his flagship pod TimeSuck is one of the most popular comedy podcasts on the market. In this video, Dan takes us through the highs and lows of his career in seven meaningful objects, ranging from microphones to lizard masks to a horrifyingly realistic (fake) severed bloody arm, of course. Watch to find out how Dan launched Bad Magic Productions, Timsuck podcast, Scared to Death Podcast, and Is We Dumb Podcast — despite all the cards stacked against him. #comedy #dancummins #timesuckpodcast #scaredtodeathpodcast #iswedumbpodcast #secretsuckpodcast #audioequipment #buildyouraudience #funny #jokes #podcasting #patreon Learn more about Dan Cummins and his podcasts on his website: https://dancummins.tv/ And you can find some of his podcasts on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/timesuckpodcast https://www.patreon.com/scaredtodeathpodcast Check out some of Patreon’s other videos: The thing to remember about creative burnout https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0U4YeacBdk This musician makes his own flame-throwing instruments.
