EVENTS No events at the moment MEET THE TEAM JOSH WILHELM I’m the owner and lead designer of JW Creates, where I specialize in cover art, logos, and website design. I’m also the host of Judged by the Cover, a podcast exploring cover art design and music discovery. Since starting in podcasting in 2019, I’ve produced, recorded, and launched shows from the ground up, which eventually led me to take over leadership of Podnooga. Now, I’m passionate about helping other podcasters and creators in Chattanooga grow and thrive through community and collaboration. ERIC CLAJUS I’m a video editor rooted in the Apple universe with a passion for helping people tell their stories. My background in broadcast news gave me years of experience interviewing, recording, and editing stories that gave a voice to the unheard. Today, I bring that same storytelling focus to podcasts, short-form narratives, and social media content. From producing podcasts to creating marketing pieces and testimonials, I help individuals and businesses amplify their voice and make a bigger impact. PHIL HYLAND Phil has a passion for bringing people together and connecting creatives with each other and to valuable resources. He launched his first podcast, Originals, in Los Angeles and has been featured multiple times on Freightwaves’ What the Truck. Today, he co-hosts the music discovery podcast Judged by the Cover. Phil is excited to collaborate with and support the creative community in Chattanooga. RESOURCES Behind every great podcast is a team of skilled creatives from audio editors to branding experts. At Podnooga, we’re creating a directory of trusted resources to help podcasters and content creators find the right people to help them grow. It’s about building relationships, not just contracts. When Your Podcast Upgrade Becomes a Headache (And Why You Shouldn’t Quit) A real story about new podcast cameras, technical issues, and pushing through a failed recording... You ever invest in something you’re convinced is going to take your content to the next level… and then it completely falls apart the very first time you use it? Yeah… that was me recently. For the Judged by the Cover podcast, I decided it was finally time to level up our video setup. Up to this point, I had been running a single DSLR-style camera, which got the job done, but I Josh Wilhelm Introducing Pawdnooga: A New Era of Podcasting in Chattanooga Podcasting is growing. Community matters. And new voices deserve to be heard. But as we’ve continued to look at the podcasting landscape, both locally and beyond, we’ve noticed something… missing. An entire category of voices has been overlooked. Underrepresented. Undervalued. Dogs. Josh Wilhelm Signs Your Podcast Cover Art Needs an Update Podcasts live or die in the scroll. When someone is browsing shows in apps like Apple Podcasts or Spotify, your cover art is often the very first thing they see before deciding whether to learn more about your show. Josh Wilhelm Creativity Needs more than Prompts The fear everyone has of AI is, it will replace creativity. It will do it cheaper and maybe better. Anti-AI proponents will say it will never be better. Is that true? Eric Clajus Your Podcast Niche Matters, But Your Video Setup Matters Just As Much! Most podcasters spend a lot of time shaping their niche, and that’s important. A niche should be focused, clear, and broad enough to carry you through fifty episodes without running out of ideas. But there’s another part of podcasting that deserves the same level of attention, and it’s the part many people overlook: your video setup. Eric Clajus Best Podcast Gear for Beginners: My Setup + Budget and Pro Alternatives Starting a podcast can feel overwhelming, especially when you fall down the rabbit hole of gear videos, reviews, and people arguing online about what microphone is “right.” Josh Wilhelm NETWORK As Podnooga grows, so does the opportunity to build something special a network of like-minded creators who elevate each other.
