About The Milt

We believe that you can discover your potential

Welcome to The Milt

We're building Kenya's biggest and most engaged podcaster community

Our Mission

We believe that podcasting can be a career for life.

We're an organisation of over 400 (and growing) writers and makers, startup founders and CEOs, commentators and culture-shakers, question-askers and note takers, listeners first and talkers later. We're amateurs and pros, business-owners and hobbyists, in it for fun and in it to win it.

Our Vision

We envision a Kenya where podcasting is recognized as a vital part of the media landscape, where diverse voices are heard and celebrated, and where the podcasting industry contributes significantly to our cultural and economic development.

To put it another way, we want the Kenya podcasting industry to be internationally recognised as punching far above its weight, just like we do in every industry.

Our History

Foundation (2026)

The Milt was founded on the 2nd of April, 2026 by a Mr. Milton Maingi who recognized the need for a unified voice in the rapidly growing Kenyan podcasting landscape. What started as informal meetups between creators quickly evolved into a structured organization dedicated to supporting the community.

Current Era (2026)

Today, The Milt represents over Kenyans and has become the recognized voice of Kenyan podcasting. Our focus is firmly on three fronts: education, industry growth, and accountability.

We have deepened our commitment to member education — delivering practical content and workshops on topics from monetisation and audience growth to production quality and video podcasting.

Critically, we are now actively interfacing with government, industry bodies, and the broader podcasting community to shape the conditions that allow the industry to grow responsibly and sustainably. We believe that Kenyan podcasting has enormous potential, and that realising it requires thoughtful coordination between Job Seekers, creators, platforms, advertisers, and policy makers.

The Most Important Thing

We're doing our best to help Kenyans connect to each other, share their experiences, cross-promote, do promo swaps, collaborate, and teach each other.
