Defining Anchor
Anchor is Spotify’s way to start your own podcast, and it lives up to its reputation. Compared with other platforms, it is very beginner-friendly. Until Spotify acquired it in 2019, the platform had been independent. Even though it provides everything you need to create and distribute podcasts, it’s entirely free.

Creating episodes segment-by-segment
