I'm surprised how little I've seen someone trying to sell pickaxes for the gold rush of podcasting.

I don't know whether that's an indicator of a trend, or whether the domain knowledge just makes such a venture unfeasible, but I'd imagine to see people renting out recording studios and selling bundled podcasting setups with training and the like, if this were such a huge trend.

Is anyone currently doing this?

Both Panoply and Gimlet (two popular podcasting companies) are getting into that business to various degrees. Panoply recently co-produced and co-promoted a podcast with GE while Gimlet seems to be more focused on doing pure "white-label" podcasts where they'll do all the production work, but their name doesn't appear on the final product.

Basically if you are company and want a podcast they'll make it for you (or work with you to make it).

Here in Atlanta http://businessradiox.com/our-studios/ is doing it on a regional scale. They are very knowledgeable in the domain, and they are very active in the local start up scene.

Also I have been working on this https://www.chirbit.com/ on the distribution/consumer side.

If anyone knows, please let me know of a company selling podcast production service... I'd love a sharp, reliable pick axe. :)
