77. The (Other) Best Regional Podcast
In a special cross-over in honor of International Podcast Day, Cidiot talks to this year’s winner of the Chronogrammie for regional podcast (we got runner-up!) Brett of Kaatscast podcast. It’s no wonder he won. A pro in audio with a very handsome voice and a public radio style podcast, Brett has recording more than 65 episodes of Kaatscast as well as audiobooks and driving tours of the Catskills.
Recorded outside at Ole Savannah’s in Kingston on the water, we talk about how working in audio leads to producing driving tours of the Catskills and his award-winning podcast (!) and we also compare the Catskills and the Hudson Valley and talk about bears and snakes. Ick.
Be sure to also tune into Brett’s interview of Mat on his new episode of Kaatscast with the same title.
