Ever wondered what it's like to run a successful podcast? In this episode of the Podcast Cave we sit down with Nicole Engelbrecht, the creator of 'True Crime SA' - one of South Africa's most successful podcasts - to find out how it all began. She'll share her story of her podcast journey, from that first, terrifying 'record' button press to now - and why this podcast is so important to her and her listeners.

We dive into the world of podcast monetisation, discussing her Patreon account and whether it's been enough to support the show. We chat about what support there is for local podcasters and finally, Nicole gives us a sneak peek into her future plans, including the release of her new book "Bare Bones" later this month. If you've ever thought about starting a podcast, this episode is a must-listen.
