Podcasting in the Metaverse? Really? The Co-Founder of Buzzsprout, one of the leading podcast hosting platforms, joined Brian Curee (aka KillerB), from Killer Bee Marketing, at their virtual studio (Killer Bee Studios) to explore the potential of podcasting in the Metaverse.

Brian asked Tom what his initial thoughts were when he told him that they host a podcast show in the Metaverse with a live audience.
