LOCAL + INDIE SPONSORSHIPS

Put Your Brand in the Middle of the Nerd Debate

Podcasting While Nerdy gives local, indie, and nerd-culture brands a natural place inside the conversation—across YouTube, podcast audio, and the PWN website. Every host-read partnership is built to sound like PWN, not a commercial pasted onto it.

Host-Read, Not Robotic

Adrian and Uncle Black deliver the message in PWN’s established conversational voice.

YouTube + Audio + Web

Packages can connect the episode, show notes, pinned comment, and PWN website.

Built for Local + Indie

Founding rates give smaller brands, shops, events, and creators a practical test.

Measured Honestly

Tracked links or offer codes support a clean recap—without inflated promises.

All sponsorships are subject to approval and must be a natural fit for the Podcasting While Nerdy audience.

Payment is required before recording. Sponsors must provide their tracked link or offer code, talking points, pronunciation guidance, logo, and offer details at least seven days before the scheduled recording.

Packages include one round of factual corrections. Final wording and delivery remain in the authentic voice of Podcasting While Nerdy.

Campaign recaps use the analytics available to PWN at the time of reporting. Audience size and episode performance vary, and PWN does not guarantee a specific number of views, listens, clicks, sales, or conversions.
