The podcasters are gathering at the Spring Hill Suites in Latrobe, PA for a conference about their craft. These podcasters range from some of the most popular, most backed entities on Patreon to an absolutely obscure, nobody but their mom listens to it type outfit. The conference itself consists of live shows open to the public, panels about the tips and tricks of the trade, and of course, an exhibitor hall where microphone companies, software bros, and budding producers line up to hawk their wares. Unfortunately, there will be a murder at this conference.
