The Art of Podcast Feedback: Public or Private?

4/6/2024
In this episode of "Ask the Podcast Coach," we dive into the nuances of adding enhanced content like slides to your YouTube videos. I discuss with Jim the evolving landscape of podcasting, the tricky transition from hobby to business, and the balance needed when offering personalized coaching. We also touch on the significance of community-driven podcasting and the essence of constructive feedback. Additionally, we share our personal experiences with website migration and the tribulations of various hosting platforms. As always, we celebrate our supporters in our "wheel o' names" segment, encourage listener engagement, and humorously banter about everything from pizza pilgrimages to tight jeans, all while anticipating next week's exciting insights.

Engaging Listeners with Giveaways(?)

3/2/2024
On today's episode, "Are Contests a Good Audience Builder?," we tackle a burning question: Are contests really the hidden gem for growing your podcast listenership, or are they just a magnet for spam and fake entries? I'll look at some of the crucial podcasting tools out there, like the demise of Evernote, and the rise of Notejoy, and StreamYard, and we'll dissect what these platforms offer in terms of features and price points. Dave's going to fill you in on the intricate dance of dealing with explicit content in podcasts, especially for those of you hoping to go global—we've got a list of countries with specific content restrictions you'll want to hear about.

Editing Lessons: AI Tools are Not Quite There

1/13/2024
Editing is a subjective art form that often includes the words, "It depends" when explaining how to do it. Today we start off with Ralph From AskRalph.com who shares somewhat of a nightmare he ran into when he let AI do ALL the editing. I also say AI instead of being Artificial Intelligence should be looked at as Assisted Intelligence because AI gets us 80-90% of the way there and you ALWAYS need a human to take one more pass to approve any edits.
