A wonderful experience and valuable conversation
Empire State University's president, Dr. Lisa Vollendorf, thoroughly enjoyed her conversation with Joe and guest host Michael Horowitz. The topics were relevant and timely, the questions pointed and informed, and the discussion lively and engaging. We look forward to guest hosting later this year! Thank you for the opportunities!
Sophisticated dialogue about higher ed
Thank you for bringing forward real issues facing all of us in higher ed today!
Edup is the premier education podcast out today
Joe does a fantastic job connecting with today's leaders in higher education allowing them to broadcast their ideas across the community. The way he blends fun with relevant and important information is far beyond anything out in the podcast space today. Keep it up!

Innovative, Positive, and Passionate About Higher Ed
As someone working within EdTech for some time, I am so grateful to have found the EdUp series. It is refreshing to hear from leaders within our industry - hearing them genuinely discuss the challenges and opportunities ahead. It's become my latest go-to when I need a pulse check, or if I'm looking for inspiration. Thanks EdUp!
Keep It Going!
I appreciate the wide range of guests you have on the podcast and think you do an excellent job of getting some important information and stories out into the community. Please keep grinding!!
Fantastic podcast
I'm a fan of the EdUp podcast and was thrilled with the opportunity to join as a guest. Joe, Elvin and team put on a great show every time and are true thought leaders in Higher Ed.
Engaging Discussion
Engaging discussion on important topics. Joe and guest co-host Mark allowed the space for in-depth conversations that were relatable and informative. I enjoyed speaking with them.
Unscripted and Real - Simply the Best
I've been a podcast guest for multiple shows over the past 30+ years and Joe's is one of the best. I joined the Zoom session a few minutes prior to going live and the conversation just started flowing without any scripting required. Before long, an hour had passed and we could have kept discussing the challenges and possible solutions facing EDU for another several hours. Always comfortable and confident, Joe has a winning program format with the EdUP show.
Fantastic Higher Education Podcast
Joe is a pro! My guest experience on the EdUp podcast was great. It was relaxing, entertaining and very professionally done. We covered some great content about Alston & Bird's higher education conference while having some fun. Thank you very much for the invitation to participate in such a great podcast. I am looking forward to another opportunity in the future!
Wonderful - Engaging conversation
It was truly a pleasure being in conversation with Joe and Richa on the EdUp podcast. Having the opportunity to engage in a conversation on what it means to be a great place to work and how to create the conditions was an honor.
A fresh take
I appreciate the collegial nature of having important conversations about the future of higher education. The hosts are knowledgeable, engaged and bring out the best in their guests. I enjoyed being a guest, but really appreciate the other voices from EdUp. If you care about the future of higher education; make sure EdUp Podcast experience is part of your playlist.
Michael Hatten Chairman/CEO, NYADI, the college of transportation technology
The interview was conducted in as very professional manner and I felt at ease during the process, thus allowing for a great exchange of ideas. Nice job, EdUp
Fun and engaging time
I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of being interviewed. We covered a lot of important topics to our university, higher education and, most importantly, our students. We are in the business of educating our students to become successful in life with a high quality online experience. I think the podcast kept the focus on the students - which is who we are here to serve.
Practitioners in Practice!
Great podcast that allows us to hear first hand from decision makers, stakeholders and vendors working together in higher education. I very much enjoyed our conversation and learned a lot from past episodes. Keep up the great work and important conversations.
This sessionshowed me there's a lot more to do to make digital resources in higher ed more accessible.
This was an interesting podcast. I didn't ask when asked to be a guest if Joe was having it captioned. (I should have) But I think it made for an interesting discussion when I raised it during the podcast. I do believe the podcast at least made the hosts more aware of the basics of accessibility. It was a great reminder for me that there are a lot of folks in higher education that have yet to understand the need to make digital resources fully accessible for people with disabilities. I didn't go into the podcast with a plan to do a presentation on accessibility. I do think that would have maybe provided more information but wouldn't have been as much fun. Joe was great taking responsibility and acknowledging that this wasn't an issue he'd really thought a lot about, and that I may have been only the second guest in the history of the podcast to talk about accessibility, though both hosts continually said it is important. I had fun and I do believe Joe did, even when I was being "shocked" with his lack of awareness in taking action in his instruction to make his materials more accessible. The podcast made me more aware of folks I'd expect in higher education, to be more aware of accessibility, and the actions to address it.
Important conversations
I had a great time recording this episode with Joe Sallustio and Douglas Carlson. It is refreshing to dig into the big issues in higher education in a long form like this and to take the time to really talk about the joys and challenges of higher ed. I appreciated Joe and Doug's insightful questions and true curiosity.
What a Great Experience
It was great talking with Joe and Douglas. They asked all the right questions, were tremendously knowledgeable about the industry, and made the whole experience fun. After listening to other episodes, I encourage everyone interested in anything education to subscribe. Lots of great stuff here!
Great Conversation!
I had a great time talking to both Joe's. I am hugely grateful to have been invited, and I think we covered a lot of really interesting topics. Thanks again!
Weighty Topics and Fun Conversations
What a great conversation -- with weighty topics considered in a less stoic way than the typical podcast on these kinds of subjects. Looking forward to listening in on many more!
Google's Wonderful Job
Episode 526 titled "A Certificate & A Degree - with Lisa Gevelber, Founder of Grow with Google" features a great interview with Lisa. She helps people who need certain career skills, especially during the covid-19 pandemic. Some of these people have college degrees and some don't. Lisa created Grow with Google, in which people learn from Google experts and receive their training to qualify for entry-level jobs. Grow with Google can also help those with specialized knowledge credits to earn professional certifications. In fact, Grow With Google partners with some colleges and universities like Johns Hopkins University, Columbia University, ...provide these trainees with vocational certificates after they have successfully completed specific corriculous. In my view point, this is a great example of the transformation of higher education, as it involves vocational skills trainees, colleges, Google experts, and also the needs of the job market. Between the people who need jobs, and the market that needs skillful labor workers, entrepreneurs or businesses and colleges or universities to come and join. It's such a capable and efficient fusion. This could be a good viable structure or form for American higher education in the future. It is worthful and should continually practise and explore.
Great Experience
The EdUp Podcast provides valuable information to the higher education community and those who care about the future of our students. The entire team is wonderful at sharing relevant information in a fun and interesting way.
