The Origins of Rob & Akiva Need a Podcast

Rob Cesternino and Akiva Wienerkur need a podcast and every week, Rob and Akiva spin a wheel of listener-submitted podcast ideas and whatever the wheel lands on is what they podcast about next. This week, things are going to be a little different. This podcast details how the 94-episodes and counting “Rob & Akiva Need a Podcast” became an idea in the first place.

Part 1 was on July 28, 2018, after the Seinfeld rewatch on Post Show Recaps wrapped up and was called “What Happens Next? Rob & Akiva on the Podcasting Comeback Trail.”

Part 2 was on August 12, 2018, also in the Seinfeld feed on Post Show Recaps, was called “Rob & Akiva are STILL Trying to Figure out What to Podcast Next.”

For the link to the spreadsheet that Rob and Akiva use to compile ideas, check it all out here: Rob and Akiva Need a Spreadsheet (compiled by the great Will from America).
