Back of the Pack Podcast

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast: Second Wind, we take a brief look ahead to this weekend's Hospital Hill Half Marathon before diving into a heartfelt conversation about the behind-the-scenes reality of podcast creation. We open up about the costs, time, and passion that go into bringing you twice-weekly episodes, and introduce you to our Patreon community at patreon.com/TheBackofthePackPodcast where listeners can directly support the show's growth and sustainability. We share our genuine appreciation for the 17 incredible supporters who've already joined our mission, while explaining how Patreon benefits both creators and the running community we've built together. From exclusive content to the unique rewards we offer our patrons, we break down exactly how these monthly contributions help us invest in better equipment, expanded coverage, and more engaging content for the entire back-of-the-pack family. We even share our ambitious (and slightly ridiculous) goal of reaching $550 monthly support – complete with Kyle's promise of a half marathon in a nightgown if we ever hit that milestone! Whether you're curious about supporting your favorite podcasts, interested in the business side of content creation, or simply want to understand how small contributions can make a massive difference in keeping independent media thriving, this candid conversation shows our appreciation for every listener who makes this community possible.
