Fact: If you have a somewhat popular podcast, you will be approached by publicists trying to book guests on it.   Also a fact ... It's easy to get on a "publicist sucker list" and have pay-for-bookings publicists dump low-level guests that they can't place elsewhere on you. So you need to get good at saying "No."   In this episode, I talk about the good that can happen when working with a competant publicist to create good episodes for your podcast and give you advice for getting both the guests and the episodes you and your listeners want.
