I'm tossing around the idea of starting a podcast network. Not some much for ad revenue but to make it easy and cheap for people who want to start a podcast to get hosting.— Taylor Jadin (@TaylorJadin) July 22, 2018

Basically I'd cover the hosting and standing up the site + RSS feed for people. Then I'd offer guides on equipment to buy and give editing tutorials for newbies.— Taylor Jadin (@TaylorJadin) July 22, 2018

Taylor, If it helps a bit, Manton Reece [(@manton), (@manton)] fairly recently created a microcast network and some tools to help people create, host, and distribute short podcasts with micro.blog. It’s an interesting model and one which could eventually be built upon as a minimal product for adding additional features and tools.
Additionally Aaron Parecki had some thoughts a while back on his microcast (episode 9: Streamlining My Microcast Workflow) about improving his production workflow. Earlier today he also created a discovery website (with subtle hints of a webring) that acts as a discovery mechanism and network of sorts for microcasts which you might find interesting in light of your plans.
I might also submit that if you’re doing it for students, starting with small, short microcasts are always a quick way to get started.
All this to remind me that I just got a Yeti Blue for my birthday and I need to fire it up to continue on with both my microcast and my longer format podcast.
