It’s time to celebrate!
We released the 300th episode of the 95Podcast. Wow! That’s so hard to believe. Our first episode was released on July 31, 2019, featuring Austin Savage as our host. Austin played a pivotal role in launching the podcast. He had a vision and an understanding of the potential impact a podcast could have, specifically in serving small and mid-sized church leaders. As of today, the 95Podcast has had over 150,000 downloads since its launch.
95Network teammates Jon Sanders and Jason Allison join Dale in the celebration on today’s podcast. It’s a fun look back at the podcast’s impact over the years. We have had so many wonderful guests who have joined us. We’ve included 12 of our favorite conversations in today’s show notes in case you may have missed them.

Key Takeaways
1) We had no idea that we would eventually record 300 podcast episodes when we started on July 31, 2019.
2) The underlying thought in the back of my mind when I’m interviewing someone is to think about what I wish someone would have told me when I was a struggling pastor.
3) Podcast Episode 59 w/ Bob Hamp entitled “Doing Ministry From Jesus Instead Of For Him” is by far the most listened to episode of all time.
4) The ultimate goal for the future of the podcast is to raise up a successor at 95Network who can take it and the podcast to a much higher level than I could possibly do.
