To those who work in the podcasting industry, connecting and sharing ideas with professionals of this field is a great opportunity. That’s why the Talent Farm was born. WePod's Talent Farm is a kind of Linkedin of podcasting that seeks to facilitate progress and connections between audio professionals from different parts of the world. To learn more about the Talent Farm, Javi Caminero is joined by one of the minds behind that idea: Henar León, Project Manager at Prisa Audio, WePod's Spanish partner.

To get an in-depth look at how the English remakes of the WePod project are done, Javi Caminero is joined by Alex Ricci, Coordinator of all the productions in WePod and Chief Operating Officer of Europod.
