One reason creators love Blast Radio is that streams are only available to listeners for 24-hours before they expire. The ephemerality of the platform creates a low-pressure environment to share audio without worrying about it being perfectly planned out, polished, and edited.
That said, those low-pressure streams often turn out really great – and when they do, you will likely want to get more life out of them. An easy way to do that is to upload them to other platforms as a podcast. Read this blog post for examples of others doing this and steps to do it yourself.
