ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Things are changing a little around here (don't worry, we're not going anywhere! You're stuck with us!) and we're very excited to share the future of the Growing Small Towns podcast with you. Brodie Mueller, one of our favorite people and frequent Guest of the Pod, is here to talk about what that looks like, how he fits in, and what we would like to hear from YOU, our listeners. About Brodie: Brodie Mueller, owner of Market on the Plaza, has lived in Aberdeen for the past 8 years and owns the downtown business Dakota Territory Brewing Company. Dakota Territory is the first and oldest brewery ever in Aberdeen and services the community by creating small-batch craft beer, root beer, and cold brew coffee. Brodie has a Masters Degree in social work and has been involved in community building both downtown and city-wide through different groups and projects. The brewery is involved with various community projects and fundraisers throughout the year, gaining a reputation as a business that supports the community. As a fellow downtown business owner, Brodie is committed to making downtown better by supporting new ventures and The Market on the Plaza is a shining example of bringing new and innovative services to the neighborhood. Brodie also just happens to be a podcast editor, audio-quality snob (in the best way) and someone who really understands podcasting world—hence why here's here with us talking about the show! In this episode, we cover:
- Our goals for the pod in 2025
- How those goals fit in with the overall mission of GST
- Why podcast metrics are crucial but tricky, and how listeners can help
- Some new ideas for podcast episodes and series
- What we need from YOU, our listeners!
