Step #1
For this tutorial we need to go to the dashboard and grab two links. I’m going to copy and paste them into my notepad so I can access them later. You could also just leave this tab open. The two Links I’m going to copy are:
Podcast RSS Feed
Public Station
 The Podcast feed has the same audio files but formatted differently.

You’ll see info from your Episode, I want the title so that the tweet will always be different.Â
The episode title is “Just Enjoying a #BigMac”

Your listeners can listen and share from your Public Station
You can see the tweet now looks like this:

Make sure you turn this on and you’re good to go!
Zapier checks your feed every 15 minutes so be patient when you upload!
All done!
This same method can be used for most social media channels, next we will be testing a few lesser thought about mediums such as Google My Business. See you then!
