What gear and tools does Shola Ajibade recommend for aspiring podcasters?

Shola Ajibade loves keeping podcasting simple, organized, and connection-focused, especially for aspiring podcasters.

From Shola’s content, one of the main must-have tools recommended is PodMatch. It is used to:

• Find and vet great guests who fit your niche
• Match with hosts if you want to be a guest yourself
• Streamline booking, messaging, and organizing interviews

Alongside PodMatch, Shola generally encourages:

• A reliable mic (USB is fine to start)
• Headphones (to avoid echo)
• A simple recording platform (Zoom, Riverside, or similar)
• Basic editing software (Audacity, GarageBand, or Descript)

Would you like Shola-style recommendations for a specific budget (e.g., “under $100” setup)?
