David Jackson

Dave Jackson is a 2018 Academy of Podcasters Hall of Fame inductee who has spearheaded educational initiatives for the medium since launching the School of Podcasting in 2005. As the former Head of Podcast Education at Libsyn, he specializes in technical production, RSS feed management, and sustainable monetization strategies. Jackson delivers tactical advice through named series such as the Podcast Rodeo Show, where he provides live audits of pilot episodes, and the long-running Ask the Podcast Coach alongside Jim Collison.
