Hey guys. I listen to many podcast and I'm even considering starting one with some friends. The problem is that there are no great apps in which you could do all the podcast on them instead of using several softwares. It would be awesome if there was a podcast-creator-app, with already back sound tracks, templates, interviews questions, story telling ideas, ways to do conclusions , even quotes. Give the opportunity t…

I'm picturing something like this http://www.soundboardarchive.com/game/603/George-Takei.html but with audio and recording functions as well?

A quick google search turned up http://www.mobilepodcaster.com/ which is somewhat similar. What's the killer feature that sets your idea above this one ? Also, what are your ideas for an impressive demo of this idea?

As a related aside, it's often possible that the software you want exists. It's extremely tiresome and boring and frankly awful to weed through and try them all out.

As an example, I tried to find some good RC helicopter simulator software recently. Horrendous. Top scoring links are talking about software from the 90s. Stuff like that.

Solve that issue and you'll probably do really well.

The capability of giving anyone a monetization channel. Mobile Podcaster is really good, but its just a recording/publishing app. The main features they have is to add intro and publish directly to WordPress. There is no editing to add commercials or ads that can monetize your podcast. Also the feature I'm talking about should be from the listener to the producer (not the other way around). So if I listen to your podcast and I want to advertise my site in it, I just select a "free space" on your episode and record myself or upload my ad.
