As a freelancer, I see the value. I'm not someone that enjoys to take people's money for things they are willing to do, but don't know how. Formspring allows you to open up about what you know.

There are plenty of people who have turned their podcasts into their careers, but when you dig deeper you'll find that people aren't making livings off of their podcasts, but what their podcasts allow them to do. If you have a successful podcast, you can run advertising on your show, but most likely your audience won't be big enough to make that income something you can live off of.
Most people who podcast "for a living" have written books, book speaking engagements and have other products and careers podcasting has opened for them. The team behind Ask A Ninja made money selling shirts, DVDs, iPhone apps, creating special episodes, speaking at conferences and eventually got work writing and directing the next Attack of the Killer Tomatoes movie. Gary Vaynerchuk leveraged his show (I'm not forgetting he also owned a wine store) into a book deal, speaking engagements and sponsorships.
Making a living podcasting is similar to making a living blogging. It's all about alternate revenue streams, books and speaking engagements.
