A large percentage of people who start podcasts crash before they make it to their 10th episode. I suggest that one big reason is because there are 3 things they don't know well enough when they start recording. In this episode I share 3 things you need to know before you start a podcast.

Here it is... passion is the secret to a successful podcast. Many podcasters start out focused on topics they like or subjects they enjoy, which will carry them for some time. But it's not usually enough to keep them motivated for the long haul when the audience isn't growing and the views aren't climbing.
What are you passionate about? How do you turn that into a podcast?

No two guests are alike and that's probably why you have them on your podcast. But it also means you never know how well prepared each guest will be coming in.

In this episode we'll share some tips that will help you prepare your next guest for a great podcast interview.
Key points:
In the last episode we covered more of the technical aspects of recording remotely. If you missed it, check it out here.

You've heard from a number of veteran podcasters on this show who all have had something valuable to share with new podcasters. But this episode we're changing it up to offer some wisdom from a new voice on the scene.

At the time of this recording Drake had released his 13th episode with the 14th in the queue.
Drake is also a client of mine at Summit City Studios. He creates the content and we do the editing and post-production work prior to release.

You know the power of good brand recognition - the Nike "swoosh," the McDonald's arches, the Amazon smile. When you see these logos or hear these names you already have a sense of what to expect and what they have to offer. That's because a brand is so much bigger than a logo. It's the feelings and thoughts elicited inside of us by something as simple as a two dimensional icon. So what does that have to do with Good Podcasting?
The same is true in the world of podcasting. Everything from the name of your show, the cover art you create and even the way you mix your sound says something to listeners about what they can expect from your podcast. So in this episode of Good Podcasting we'll share a few ideas to help you create a great brand for your podcast.

Every podcast host site is similar but they are not all the same and choosing the right one can be a daunting task. In this episode of Good Podcasting we'll help you understand what a host site is, why it's important and we'll even walk you through some options to look for that may not be apparent on first glance. And if that's not enough we've managed to tie the conversation back to one of the most iconic songs of your... er... our childhood.

The fan support of a start up minor league soccer team in Cincinnati that not only put the team on the map but helped propel them into Major League Soccer was one of the greatest phenomena I've ever experienced as a Cincinnati sports fan. Supporter groups popping up around the city. Pre-game marches to the stadium. Coordinated match day chants. All things I wish I could have participated in, but since I no longer live in the city of my youth, I had to find alternate ways to connect with those passionate fans. Thankfully I discovered Cincinnati Soccer Talk, a podcast for fans and by fans of FC Cincinnati.
In today's episode you'll hear from Boston Brazzell, one of the fans responsible for the launch and the growth of Cincinnati Soccer Talk. Though we could have talked soccer all day long, we focused our conversation on how a small group of passionate fans launched a podcast they weren't sure anyone would listen to and developed it into a network of podcasts that has become the model for many fan-based media outlets.

Believe it or not, most podcasts never make it past ten episodes. And that number is SHOCKINGLY high. There are plenty of reasons for that -- burnout (pod fade), too much work, not enough to say, etc. -- but ultimately, for most podcasters it comes down to your "why," or your reason for podcasting in the first place. If your why isn't strong enough, it's far too easy to turn off the mic rather than pushing through the challenges of those first few episodes.
In this episode, Chase and Brian ask the question, "does your why need more than 10 episodes?"

This week we welcome Anthony Carley, host of Conserving Christianity and owner of MagReel Media. In this episode Anthony shares how his experience as a light and sound engineer have uniquely prepared him as a podcast host and producer but says that with a little time and a little commitment, anyone can learn what it takes to produce a good podcast. Two conversations of note in this episode include why Anthony believes the most coveted podcast mic is not really a good mic at all for podcasters and how live streaming episodes has led to increased viewership and engagement for his show.
All that and more in this episode of Good Podcasting.

Molly Sider hosts I Am This Age, a podcast full of stories and interviews with individuals who, sometime after 40 years old, chose to pursue the things they've always wanted. She is also a storyteller, a life coach and the founder of a podcast production company called Jellyfish Industries.
In today's conversation she shares how her podcasting journey began when she recorded her first episode in 2019 and was suddenly struck by fear and anxiety which prevented her from releasing it for another year and a half. But once she did, she says she was blown away by the response. I think you will be as well.
I was honored to be a guest on Molly's podcast as well. If you are interested in hearing my story of changing directions at 43 years old, I'll post that link below as soon as the episode airs.

Millions of people right now are thinking about starting a podcast. For some it's a new idea. Others have been dragging their feet for years unsure of how to make it happen and what they would even talk about. The truth is, it's easy to start a podcast but most don't make it past their 7th episode. In this episode I'll share a few things I've learned about what it takes to create a good podcast so that by the time you hit your 7th episode you're just starting to hit your stride to go for the long haul.
Post-production notes:
I did very little additional processing of my audio in this episode. I thought I would need a de-esser with this microphone but as it turns out none was needed. I did very minimal work with the EQ settings and added just a little compression. Otherwise, the audio you hear is straight out of the Audio-Techica BP40. If you are interested in this mic, there's a link below to get you to it quickly.

No two microphones are quite the same which can make choosing one to use for your podcast an exciting adventure. However, to many podcasters, the mic doesn't matter. And to some extent that is kind of, sort of true in a way. But there are other factors that should come into play in your decision to purchase a microphone and most of them have nothing to do with the mic itself. In this episode of Good Podcasting, Brian shares four tips to help podcasters choose the right microphone.

It took me awhile to embrace the idea that podcasts did not have to be audio only but could actually include a video component. In my mind those were two forms of communication that existed in different places (i.e. Spotify and YouTube) and therefore were two very different things. I know. That sounds ridiculous, right? Vaughn Sanders was a key player in changing my mind, and he joins me for this episode to talk about it.
Vaughn is a man of many talents and wears many hats throughout the week as a cyber-security expert, pastor of a local church and host of the Work It Out Podcast, which as you may have guessed, can be found in both audio and video formats.

Starting a podcast may not be as difficult as many think it is. There are really only 3 things you need to make it happen and in this episode I'll walk you though all three. Ironically, I recorded this episode entirely in the dark with no power due to a storm that knocked out the electricity in our region for more than two days. That being the case, I could not use my normal equipment and only had access to my laptop (battery powered) and a USB mic (powered by that same battery).

Welcome to the very first episode of Good Podcasting. I am kicking things off with an interview I did with Harry Cunningham, host of the goodMRKT Live! podcast. Harry is the Co-Founder and Chief Brand Officer of the innovative retail concept, goodMRKT, and Vice President of Retail Brand Experience, at Vera Bradley. His podcast, goodMRKT Live!, showcases the inspirational stories behind the brands at goodMRKT.
If you are interested in hearing more from Harry and his co-hosts, Mary Beth Trypus and Adam Taft Lambert, and the stories of the brands they carry in the store, check out goodMRKT Live!
