Main topic of the Show: Lessons from 7 Years of Podcasting
From Micah
How about podcasting?
Equipment, guest form, interview tips, how it fits in with a business, how it incorporates with other areas of life, etc.
Software, workflow
Podcast lessons:
- The how it happens matters less than the actual happening
- Consistency and predictability
- Developing categories or segments helps keep focus (Also scripting vs outlines vs winging it)
- Committing to a co host can get you in trouble
- Streamlining the process:
- The Guest Form (From Jack Spirko)
- Audio Editing for Mistakes
- Prepopulating the website and social posts, etc.
- Community, Network, Keeping Things Growing
- The Money: webinars, books, events, coffee, podcasting 2.0 and fountain, social capital
- how it fits in with a business, how it incorporates with other areas of life, etc.
- Successful Interviewing: (Research, Do not be afraid to ask, have things you can bring up ready to go if things lag. Only interview people you think are interesting, THE FORM)
- Ok, I will talk about gear and software: Scarlett solo box, Rhode NT 1, Alesis studio mixing set, Lighting, Garage Band, Levelator, iMovie, Canva – other options!!!
- It doesn’t matter - just start recording, create your rss feed, and register on itunes – from there you will find other places that require registration or adjustment and add them as people complain that you are not on one platform or another.
Make it a great week!
GUYS! Don’t forget about the cookbook, Cook With What You Have by Nicole Sauce and Mama Sauce.
