Patreon is a crowdfunding platform which is interesting for creators in two ways: they can make money from their creations, and also create a more solid bond with a part of their community. If you have a podcast, take the time to explore this option!
When you launch your podcast, the aim is rarely to make money, but it may become possible over time for various reasons; you may want to buy stuff to improve your sound, get money for investing so much time in your podcast, or even just make money out of something you like.
