Looking for Podcast Partners


As you may know, for several years I’ve been doing transportation podcasts via Transportation Radio. Over a year and a half ago, I began a partnership with the Institute of Transportation Engineers for the ITE Talks Transportation podcast. With the new year less than a month away, I’m looking for others who might have an interest in collaborating on a transportation-related podcast. While the topic should relate to transportation, it could be a mode-specific podcast such as rail or aviation, a topic such as ITS, or one aimed a geographic-specific audience. I bring extensive broadcasting experience in the largest radio market in the US along with 35+ years of transportation experience. The partnership could be with an organization or it could be with a company interested in sponsoring the podcast. Please contact me at bernie@transportationradio.com for more information.
