Takeaways:* The podcast review emphasizes the importance of knowing your podcast's purpose and audience. They mentioned networking but later said they would judge their success by gaining more business. * Audio quality is crucial; a muddy introduction can deter potential listeners significantly. All the pre-recorded spots needed improvement. * Networking through podcasting can be as valuable as achieving high download numbers. * Hosts should strive for engaging dialogue rather than a formal question-answer format. * Clear calls to action are essential for directing listeners to your offerings effectively. * Using storytelling effectively can enhance listener engagement during interviews and discussions. * We both thought things "picked up about 13 minutes when you got to a topic that inspired a little more passion in the guest, and the conversation became a little more conversational and casual. * The courage to talk about some topics that people may shy away from was a positive step. People love opinions, and living of fear of upsetting people is no way to live. There is a name for those people, "Not your target audience." * The website would look better with the newer version of the Libsyn player. The follow buttons could be a bit more uniform and update date. * The website has a lot of options and was organized in a way that kept some white space. There are a fair number of options for navigation, and you might consider moving some of those to a sub-menu to avoid paralysis by analysis.

The description of the Steve and Jeff show in Apple is, "Comedy, Improvisation, and strange, but cool interviews, are all bundled into one weekly podcast. Steve and Jeff have been friends for more than 50 years, funny since 2022. Enjoy the "Malk Show" (mock talk show) and visit www.steveandjeff.com to find out more.www.steveandjeff.com"
What we Liked About the ShowThe type of humour came quickly and let you identify is "this was for you" or not. You kept that style of humor throughout the episode.
The format of conducting mock interviews with quirky, everyday characters played by local improvisers provided a fresh and engaging approach to podcasting, which Dave and Erik found both innovative and entertaining.
The long-standing friendship between Jeff and Steve translated well into their on-air chemistry, making the interactions more natural and enjoyable for listeners.
The premade mock commercials were some of the funniest parts of the show.
What WE Thought Could Be ImprovedErik mentioned that the opening of the show lacks context and structure, which can lead to confusion for new listeners who might not immediately grasp what to expect from the show.
Dave Jackson pointed out that improvements could be made to the podcast's website, especially in providing more descriptive text on the "About Us" page to enhance search engine optimization and accessibility.
Dave pointed out that having the episodes on the website could boost SEO. It allows people to sample the show before following it, and it makes it easier to share an episode.
It was recommended that a tagline or a concise description be used at the beginning of each episode to help clarify the show's content and provide immediate context to new listeners.
Some sketches seemed to drag and could benefit from concise delivery and sharper punchlines to keep the audience engaged and entertained.
Minimizing overly local references (or ensuring they are explained) could help them be more relatable to an international or non-local audience so as not to alienate listeners who might not understand specific regional humor.
incorporate more structured calls to action, both at the beginning and the end of the podcast, possibly in a humorous manner that fits the show’s theme and effectively encourages listener engagement and conversion.

Episode Feedback* Great audio and a great job of talking to one person * Great voice over * Only one call to action (YAY!) * Could boost momentum by having the music fade in before he finishes * The intro is a bit redundant * Be sure to avoid trying to be everything to everyone * The episode was wide open for stories, and there weren't any * Give a more specific call to action to get more specific answers
Website Feedback* Add some episodic artwork to break the same picture over and over * Update your About Page to show the show's benefits and who Ralph is. * A resources page with one resource could be skipped. * See if you can adjust the episodes so they aren't quite so tall and skinny, which requires more scrolling to see the site.
Branding Feedback* As you get traction on your Sunday episodes based on faith, lean harder into that respect to make you stand out. * Add a tagline to your show to work some of the keywords into the title of your show. * Potentially adjust the open voice-over to include your experience.

Dr. Brad Miller is writing a book and wanted to start building and audience so he launched the show Beyond Adversity with Dr. Brad Miller. His current description in Apple Podcasts is:
Beyond Adversity with Dr. Brad Miller is all about the belief that every person has a God-given promised life of peace, prosperity, and purpose. And that you must implement a planned pathway with the proper people to quickly overcome adversity and depression to achieve that promised life. Dr. Brad Miller teaches practical strategies to defeat depression and live a life of joy as well as interviews successful people who have overcome great adversity to arrive at a place of peace, prosperity and purpose.
His website is https://www.drbradmiller.com/
What We Liked About ItThe intro had a nice vibe with the music. You introduced the guest before the intro clip so people had the context of who he was.
You had a nice transition into the interview.
The website has a nice clean look.
The audio sounded good.
You did a good job of promoting future episodes.
What We Thought Needed TweakedYou introduced the guest multiple times. Once is all we need.
Your guest somewhat ran away with the interview. Instead of making it a three-part interview, identify the key turning point, and get to that content as quickly as possible. Leave the rest on the editing room floor.
While the guest fit one of your "D's" (Depression), the stakes weren't very high in a way that made me wonder, "What is going to happen next."
Have a lead magnet for your newsletter. Give them a reason to sign up.
The audio had some "interesting timing," which you later explained was caused by a cold.

DescriptionPodcast Review Show – Get Your Podcast Reviewed Weekly podcast dedicated to supporting heavy metal music in every way possible. Hosted and produced by Jon “The Vernomatic ‘’ Verno, Metal Mayhem Roc presents a blend of feature interviews with heavy metal legends and stars of tomorrow. With in house created content like ”Streaming for Vengeance”, ” Mount Rushmore of Metal” ‘Metal Confessions” and the “Business of Metal “you, the listener, is left both educated and entertained.
With an emphasis on presentation and professional industry audio imagery, Metal Mayhem ROC is your go-to source for everything metal.
Website: https://www.metalmayhemroc.com/
This is a Special EpisodeToday Jon "THE VERNOMATIC" Vernon paid to have us listen to TWO episodes of his show. Hence there is a bit more feedback, but also, at the end of every show the guest is allowed to ask as many questions as they want (which really adds value in addition to having two consultants at the same time) and Jon had some really good questions (and we kept them in).
Also, the power went out as we were recording you won't hear Erik or Jon at the end.
What We Liked About This EpisodesJon has just the right amount of energy on the microphone.
Dave loved the trivia that had him learning new things.
You all have passion for the subject.
You did a great job of introducing the panel and getting to the topic
The intro leaves no doubt that this is a Metal show
The tease at the end of the show really left us wanting more.
Erik found the story of the upstart record label fascinating.
The artwork on the website is amazing.
What We Thought Could Use Some PolishingOn the interview show, your tease gave away the whole story
There was some tapping on the table(?) and of course, Dave caught the popping P's and ums.
Dave found some of the details about the bands that he didn't know and didn't get to hear dull.
The recap episode, it was very much like a Wikipedia entry. There are facts but no personality
Make your "blog" into the "listen" part of your website and embed the player from your media host. When you force feed people into an app (Spotify) that can rub people the wrong way. Embed a spotify player in the blog posts (making them "episodes) and then have links to subscribe to Apple, Spotify, Google, and Amazon in each episode (and maybe a page on your website to make it simple)
There are times when you sound like you're doing radio (group speak, "Hey everybody") when people don't listen in groups. They listen in the car or in earbuds, etc. "Thanks for listening, I'm so glad you're here (singular).
Inject your personalities into the show. Look at that Metal Show on VH1 Classic where they would have to compile a list. This pulls the audience in as they try to decide if they agree with you or not. You can do this without turning into endless arguments. Jon mentioned you had a timer.
Jon Wants You To Listen to 1986You can check it out here and check out the site at www.metalmayhemroc.com/
The Goal Of This ShowThis show aims to help you make the best episodes and grow your downloads.

Live Well and FlourishIf you’re ready to think beyond material and external success, if you’re ready to take control of who you are and the kind of life you live, if you’re ready to flourish, this podcast is for you. The topics I cover help you understand what it means to live a flourishing life, a life of meaning, satisfaction, and enduring happiness.
Check it out at www.livewellandflourish.com
What We Liked About the Show* The intro is great that lets you know where you're going along with the warm of a campfire in the cabin * Craig does a little housekeeping, but its short * Some great stories about losing weight * Any "fancy" words were explained * Instead of reading someone's bio, you explained why they were important and stuck to the facts that were relevant to the audience. * The website uses Podpage (learn podpage at www.learnpodpage.com ) and has a great layout * Craig had the best ending EVER on this show. One, a completely clear call to action. * Great length. You said what you needed to say, and left. * The "three things" is a great way to summarize the episode. * Audio sounded great, and the musical branding was nice.
What We Thought Might Need Some Tweaking* Craig scripts this show and for 90% of it, his reading is fine, but at times we need a little more smile, and some pauses. * Some of the color choices on the website make it slightly hard to read in some places. * Craig's old branding is on his mastodon community. * Add a few more stories when you make a point (if possible) * Maybe add a "so that you can" to the intro * Potentially add a specific question, "Have you ever done a little thing that ended up with big results? I'd love to read or play it on the show.

Today we are looking at the Skeptic Metaphysicians. Their description is, "Like Mulder from the X-Files, we want to believe. So we've embarked on a journey of discovery. We've talked to people deeply entrenched in the spiritual, metaphysical, mental health and self-help worlds. We've thrown ourselves into weird and wonderful experiences, and we're sharing them with you in an effort to find the trick to self-growth. Whether your interests lie in the metaphysical or the spiritual or even grounded in the three-dimensional world, this show will help you explore the endless possibilities of self-growth....tinged with a hint of the supernatural. New episodes every Wednesday!
Check out their website at www.skepticmetaphysician.com
What We Liked About the Show Some really good* questions were asked * You did a GREAT job of being skeptical without being cynical (a very safe space) * You didn't interrupt the guest when they were in the thick of a story * We loved your description of the show * You did a great job of stepping into the shoes of your guest. * You take the show seriously but still kept it light. * The website looks great using Podpage * Your "final" answer showed vulnerability and was amazing. * Great job explaining the roles (scientist) of the people involved. * The podcast sounds great.
What We Thought Needed Tweaked* We loved your description, but it took a little long to get to that description * Who is Karen? (neither the episode or the website answered this question). * You (in some cases) ask a question and add a description/backstory. Flip the content around and set up the question and ask the question last (so the guest hears the question last). * Don't forget to use people's names when you have multiple hosts. * Get comfortable with awkward pauses * Use one call to action (and rotate if needed). * FYI, ratings and reviews do not help you be found in Apple (social proof only) * Do not refer to the listener as "listeners."

Today we are joined by Perry Carpenter from the 8th Layer Insights podcast.
Description: Get ready for a deep dive into what cybersecurity professionals often refer to as the "8th Layer" of security: HUMANS. Welcome to 8th Layer Insights (8Li). This podcast is a multidisciplinary exploration into how the complexities of human nature affect security and risk. Author, security researcher, and behavior science enthusiast Perry Carpenter taps experts for their insights and illumination. Topics include cybersecurity, psychology, behavior science, communication, leadership, and more
Website: https://8thlayerinsights.com/
Things You're Doing Correct* The audio production is amazing. * The sidekick of "Carl" was creative * Asked some really good questions and stayed out of the guest's way. * As the episode isn't super long, the summaries at the end of a point signaled you were moving on to a new point. * Loved the insights and vulnerability * The website is clean and very useful * Very well put together
Things That Might Need Some Buffering* The show needs an intro to explain "Here is what we do here." You explain it later in the show. I would move it to the beginning of the show. The description really suggests a name change. Start with the end in mind, and look at who hires you to speak? If you're trying to spotlight soft skills, then tie them back to cyber security. * The name is somewhat inside baseball. Maybe add a tagline to make it easier to get found * I would’ve added a link to the sponsor and the steve king book in your show notes. I totally missed it in the sidebar. * You have a lot of voices and from time to time we're not sure who said what.They all sounded different but we forget who is who.

Today we are looking at the Dream Believe with George DeMartino Podcast. The description of the show is:
98% of people live their lives and don't achieve their dreams or goals. They’re not really living - just following a routine. I’m George DeMartino and I hope to inspire you to take the path less beaten through my stories and the stories of others that are just as unorthodox. So step into the arena. Subscribe and listen now to the Dream Believe podcast We hope we can inspire you to take your first step
George's website is https://dreambelievepodcast.com/
What We Liked About the PodcastGeorge has tremendous energy and tons of experiences and stories. He has an enthusiasm to help cheer you on to greater things.
Very conversational filled with great stories.
George has that New York flavor, and his personality shines through.
You have an obvious passion for your subject.
He had some great questions and you built a nice story arch.
You had a great question at the end that brought everything full circle
The website loaded fast
What He Might Want to PolishHis intro was missing a bit of setup to let us know where we are going.
His first questions need a little pacing (one question at a time
Be aware of the curse of knowledge. You may know things about the guest that the audience doesn't. You need to make sure to bring the audience up to speed. What is Hydroflax?
Your editor could remove some of the stammers, which results in you and your guest sounding more confident in what you're saying. There is also a slight buzz in your audio at times.
Work on your call to action at the end of the show.
If you want to monetize, you should start working on an email list with tools like Mailerlite, or Convertkit
The website had lots of different topics from different parts of your life. It was confusing.
Give each episode its own blog post with show notes and a player to attract Google.
Clean navigation at the top of the page would help your website.
Maybe use the blurb on your website as the intro to the show.
At the end of the interview put your stamp on it and summarize and inject yourself into the show.

What We Liked About the Podcast
Good use of Audible. Nice job of going the extra mile to make the sponsor fit the show.
You have a good tease to open the show.
Great presentation. Very natural sounding.
Nice shout out to the listener at the end (where this type of content belongs).
Nice story arc
Your photography is amazing on your website.
Easy to find subscribe buttons on your website.
What You Might Try In the Future
You don't mention your website.
For Dave, there were too many details (who is this for?).
There is music for the sake of nothing. Add a voice over to that to help explain the show.
Change the link on your gear page so it opens in a new window.
In Libsyn add your JioSaavn destination.
There isn't much about you or your unique past (at least in this episode).
There is no close to the show. It just ends. At least ask them to share the show with a friend.

Today Dave and Erik review The Colon Health Podcast. Their description in Apple is, "Interviews with the world's leading professionals and experts in gastroenterology, research, nutritional science, medical technology, and more. If it impacts your colon health, we cover it here on the Colon Health Podcast. Hosted by Dr. Dac Teoli."
Their website is https://www.colonoscopy.com/podcast/
What We Liked About The Show
The intro is solid and gives you what you need.
The phrase, "We have three big problems" really caught my attention (it's a great setup).
I learned some stuff I could use at a dinner party.
The host has great pipes.
I love the “to be fair” and showing of both sides of the data.
Really positioned the other Dr. Dale as the Expert.
The website made it easy to find the podcast.
Some Things You Might Try Moving Forward
Add more about the benefit to the listener.
You give lots of stats/data early in the episode. Numbers are hard to follow in audio. You can put the stats in the show description and direct people to the website.
Erik thought you could sound friendlier, and Dave thought spelling the website and name was a little odd.
You introduce the guest, and then we don't hear from him for a LONG TIME. Then you just dump the show into his lap, and he talks for a LONG TIME. It had the feel like you were doing a presentation instead of a conversation.
At the end of the show, give the listener a benefit to take action.
If possible (realizing Doctors may not be that tech savvy) get them off the phone. It was good that you sounded good and were on a microphone
You have some "group Speak." Phrases such as, "Our listeners out there”, etc. “To you, our listener.” Who else would it be?
A fair amount of calls to action at the end, and be sure to explain the benefits of those calls to action

Today Dave Jackson from the School of Podcasting and Erik K. Johnson from Podcast Talent Coach take a look at the Pharmacist's Voice hosted by Kim Newlove. Here is the description of the podcast: The Pharmacist’s Voice
The Pharmacist's VoicePodcast is a weekly, journey-style podcast about Ohio pharmacist Kim Newlove's career change from pharmacist to voice actor. She alternates solo shows and interview shows. The solo shows are about her career change, and the interview shows feature a variety of people who use their voices to advocate, educate, or entertain.
What We Liked About the ShowKim does a good job explaining why the guest is on a show and has a clear idea of who should (and shouldn't be on her show).
Kim does a good job of bringing the guest back on topic.
Her audio sounds great.
Her website is a PHENOMENAL example of someone who has a business AND a podcast and doesn't bury the podcast while keeping the business front and center.
Some Things That Could Use Some TweakingKim is a voice actor, so her diction is perfect. Towards the end of the show, we conclude that when she slows down the speed of her talking it makes it appear that her diction and delivery is a bit stiff. Her demo is amazing and filled with energy. We want more of that.
While Kim's website does a great job of promoting her business, she barely mentions her services in the podcast. She does ask people to visit her website but could boost this effort by explaining why. We provide a few examples of how to tie her business into her podcast.
Conclusion
As a journey podcast, Kim's podcast has already resulted in her getting some voice work. With 100 episodes under her belt, she is doing a lot of things correctly. He website is a great website where everything appears planned, and her brand just oozes professionalism. We wish her all the best.

What We Liked About the ShowDave enjoyed the Emotion Wheel and felt it was something he would look deeper into that topic when the show was over.
Your voice over guy did a nice single call to action.
Solid interview style. Very comfortable.
The questions set him up to give a ton of useful info.
I like the big “subscribe” button on the home page.
The intro tells us exactly who the show is for and what it is about.
I like the category section - easy to binge listen
What We Thought Could Be ImprovedI would prefer you tell me why YOU are excited to have this person on instead of reading his bio.
The show doesn't mention authors, and it would help to tie any strategies back to authors.
Dave felt you repeating what the guest just said was not helpful.
Remove Google Play from you website and add Google Podcasts and Spotify. (maybe make a subscribe page with directions)
While there is an "About" for the podcast, We need a paragraph to answer, “Why should I listen to Susan?”
The call to action would come across better if it came from you.
The WordPress theme you are on is from a company that went out of business. Check out Second Line Themes.
The answers were very technical. Get the guest to tell some stories. Engage. Examples.
Lots of “schedule appointment” buttons. You ask “Need help with book marketing?” Is that the real pain? or is it “get noticed” “sell more books” “become a best seller”?
“Contact” is just “schedule an appointment” again. Maybe e-mail or phone.

Today we look at Paypod the payments and fintech podcast. Here is their description from Apple podcasts:
Welcome to PayPod, a show that explores the fast-changing world of payments and fintech. The show features interviews with leaders and entrepreneurs in the payments and fintech industries.
Each episode, you’ll hear an interview directly with a leader of the payments industry. We talk with fintech entrepreneurs, security experts, mobile developers, eCommerce pros, and more...
From credit card processing to bitcoin... from retail point of sale systems to cutting edge digital payments software… merchant accounts. mobile checkout, lending marketplaces, and beyond… we cover it all!
What We Liked About the Show
Once the interview started Scott seemed very relaxed and enjoyed having a conversation with his guest.
While there was some "Bitcoin Rah Rah" it wasn't 100% a pep rally for bitcoin.
Great short introduction that gets right to the point
It was a good discussion about cryptocurrency itself worldwide. You do a good job balancing the discussion of the app with the discussion of the industry overall.
The courage to cover contrarian views was great, and you did a great job of setting up the guest and then getting out of his way as his passion came through.
I liked that you attempted to skip the guest's backstory (even though he admittedly went on some tangents).
The website was clean and does a great job of having a podcast page without distracting from the business.
Things That Might Need Improved
You really need to determine who this show is for and talk specifically to that audience. There may be more than one type of listener, but you really need to embrace one.
Erik thought a bit more on the benefit of the show for the listener. How am I going to benefit?
Leave yourself a little room at the beginning of that before the discussion starts to demonstrate your authority in this space and what you do and how you help people.
Not sure what you could do about this, but an Australian only app cuts out a chunk of the world.
A walk through of the process of the app, what it does, and why I would use it.
A fair amount of jargon. Depending on who the audience is, you might need to explain some of the terms.
The guest had mentioned he had authored a book, and you mentioned you would put a link in the show notes (but didn't).
You did a great job of having a single call to action, but that one call to action wasn't in alignment with your goals. You had stated you wanted more feedback on the topics that interest the audience. If this is the true goal, you need to specify this as your call to action.
Add some more obvious subscribe buttons (instead of links) in the episodes (it is all about the subscribers).

Today Dave and Erik touch base with Adam from Tactical Breakdown to see how his podcast is doing since the last time we reviewed his show.
Adam niched down to his audience, and really focused on his target audience and realized not everyone is his audience.
Adam has delegated the production work to a company that allows him to focus more on the courses and live events.
He started and launched an online training program, and now does his podcast full time.
Adam had questions about creating an Amazon Flash Briefing (and we explain there is a difference between an Amazon Skill, and an Amazon Flash Briefing).
Adam also has people in his audience and industry to have Adam consult on running their event, and help with their podcast.
Adam updated his intro based on our suggestions and fixed the audio issues he had in the past.
Check out Adam at https://www.thebreakdown.ca/ and check out his monthly roundtable for instructors and SMEs

What We LikedGreat energy. Great guest
Glad that reminded me who the guest is and why he's there.
Good job of explaining CCTM might do that more often.
Nice job of talking to one person most of the time.
Nice job of teasing “coming up on the podcast” (maybe get more specific).
Have a good shift – you really know your listener.
Nice job of staying out of the guest's way, and letting him state his opinion.
Nice job asking the guest to clarify.
Nice focused call to action.
Great resources and easy contact page. The website is easy to navigate.
What Might Need a Little PolishA lot of history of the guest. Do we need all of his backstories?
Your volume needs adjusting during the intro.
Have a first question that gets into the content instead of a generic history question.
Some low hanging ums, but not enough to worry about.
No way to share episodes.
If you're using an iframe, those are horrible for SEO.
White text on a black background can be taxing on the eyes.
The occasional use of group speak.
Your newsletter needs more of an incentive.

DescriptionRob Fonte is the host of the Leadership Jam Session Podcast, where every other week you'll get to hear leaders at all levels of management share their practical solutions to the management challenges you face every day. On this podcast, Rob shares leadership experiences with listeners by bringing in leaders from all different levels to “Jam” on a variety of leadership topics. Some of the best insights are captured from just listening and learning from each other as they share their experiences. More importantly, we learn to see things through the lens of a different perspective and how to move forward with a different approach. With that concept in mind, the Leadership Jam Session podcast was born. Be sure to stay up to date at leadershipjamsession.com.
What We Liked About it* Great short introductions and you got right to the content * The intro identifies who the show is for and what to expect. * Great stories and insights from your guests * Great transitions from speaker to speaker and getting everyone involved * I liked the occasional summary of what your guests said. * You had a great space for guests to be vulnerable and share insights.
What Might Need Some Polish* Do a quick recap of the question when getting others involved. * “almost out of time” is a holdover from the radio. * Always talk to one person and avoid group speak * Work more of who you are and why people should listen. * Maybe work the guest's name in more so we know who is talking. * Direct people to the website for calls to action. * Add a Google Podcasts to the website and update Captivate to show subscribe buttons * Position yourself as the expert and do a summary of “what did we learn” to inject YOU into the content. * Determine who your true target audience member is and design the content with them in mind.

What We Liked About The Show* Nice opening. Nice story. You get right to it. * Lovely Dirty Harry Imitation * The website looks amazing and very professional * It's precise. You make your point and get out.
What We Thought Needed Tweaking* Dave thought this was close to being a performance it was so well-read * There was some confusion about who the story was about. Was this you golfing? * The audio level on the Dirty Harry clip was a little low * When you say “Folks” its “group speak” * Add a “Book Trent” button to the website * A little stronger connection of the opening story to the topic. “Today we are going to talk about”

DescriptionRhonda Orr is the president and founder of Rhonda's STOP BULLYING Foundation. On this podcast, she expands on the newspaper advice columns she writes with Dr. Cheri L. McDonald, “Dear Rhonda & Dr. Cheri..” Rhonda speaks directly to you, with real-world, actionable advice
Find the show at https://bullyinglifeandstuff.com
What We Liked About The Show* The audio quality was great and Rhonda has an authentic passion for this topic and it comes through. * The opening got right to the point * Nice clip to open the show that really hit home * The website has a nice clean look and easy to navigate. * Good job of boosting the theater of the mind * Good call to action at the end of the show
What Needed Some Tweaking* Some confusions with wording coming from a column to a podcast “She/Her” * The intro was a bit long and you might want to focus in who is the show for, and what the goal of the show is for. Then right an intro to really pull in the listeners and use the parts of your background that fit the goal of the show (credentials that don't fit aren't needed). * Dr. Cheri got a lot of attention for someone who is not on the show, and is barely on the website. Also do we care that she is from West Lake Villiage? * If the goal is to get more speaking gigs, add some pictures of you in that setting to the website. You might also consider mentioning it to the audience. Example: “I was speaking to some high school kids….” * The 12 seconds of music at the end could be faded out at the end. * This opening really isn't focused on anyone. “from business management to fear”, but we are talking about bullying. Who are we really trying to reach?
Additional CommentsAs Rhonda is transitioning to a new podcast and website, when the podcast isn't tied to the structure of the column this will free you up to speak more from the heart, and loosen up a bit (not that you were stiff). We look forward to hearing Bully Buster when it becomes available.

Then describe what is on the episode in a way that makes people want to keep listening. * There is quite a lot of “group talk” such as “Hey everybody.” Talk to ONE person to boost the intimate feel of podcasting. * Be sure to mention whatever people are there to plug upfront and set the stage so people know where we are headed. * While many podcasters don't share enough, at one point the interview flipped and she was interviewing you as we had taken a fairly long tangent. We LOVE your personality. Share that on your “10 minutes with” episodes, and make interviews where the guest shines. * Add a call to action even if it is “tell a friend” and let people know where they can find more information about you and your guest. * You can share about yourself in regards as to why YOU are excited about (reason) the guest is on today. This shows you did some homework while allowing people to get a glimpse into you. * Be careful getting too random. Make sure there is a common theme amongst your guests.

Beyond Westworld IntroductionDESCRIPTIONAward-winning podcast duo Aaron Peterson & Troy Heinritz live without limits as they bring you into analysis mode on the very first podcast for HBO's Westworld. You may question the nature of your reality as the “hosts” dig deep into each character's journey through the maze to find the door. Break the code with a sectioned off part of the park for theories and deep dives into not just the show, but all the website, Instagram, and other ancillary items they can find. What are your drives? If you answered Westworld, then subscribe today!
WEBSITEwww.beyondwestworldpodcast.com
WHAT WE LIKED* Troy and Aaron put in a lot of work into each episode via research. * Their audio quality is good and their intro gets right to the content quickly * Their show notes included some GIF mini-movies that really grabbed your attention along with a quick history of Westworld * There were passionate discussions of topics that were DEEP into the topics of die-hard fans. * There is good chemistry between the hosts.
WHAT NEEDS TWEAKED?* Some of the tangents went a bit long and really stopped the momentum of the show (or were just inside jokes that the audience didn't get). * Some of the information that is delivered in each weekly seemed rushed and at times, hard to understand. * There were many calls to action at the end. * You could use each other's names a bit more to help the audience keep track. * Without doing a “and now its time to” type of segment remind the audience of the purposes of each segment (beyond “going deeper”). * Your banding is a little clunky. This will be remedied when you switch to a new website but there is mention of Golden Spiral, as well as your website, which then has a header at the top with a different name.

DescriptionExplore human anatomy and physiology (A&P) teaching and learning with host Kevin Patton. An experienced professor, textbook author, and mentor, Kevin is a recognized leader in A&P teaching. The A&P Professor builds on the practical approach taken in Kevin's popular blogs, newsletters, and websites. Want some ideas to supercharge your A&P course? How about some support from a fellow A&P professor? This is the podcast for you!
What We Liked* Nice intro – I know where we are going, and you’re right into the content * Did a great job of talking to one person – no “Group Speak” * Lots of great tips for fellow teachers * Nice job referring back to episode 50 * Nice transitions and the ads were short, relevant, and to the point. * Solid bio on the site
Things That Need Polished* Gave good qualifications at the end. Move it up to the front of the show. * It's against Amazon's policy to say shopping through your link will help you (go figure…) * A few too many calls to action at the end. * The website lacked an overall style. The two players may cause confusion. * We would like to hear who the show is for at the beginning.

Description:
A podcast that explores the beauty and connectedness of musical cultures from every part of the globe. We bring you interviews with world-renowned musicians from every part of the globe, as well as our own explorations of musical styles, instruments, and artists. If you believe, like us, that open ears = open minds, then come with us into broader horizons!
What We Liked About the Episode* Great storytelling. Feels like you are telling rather than reading. The format of storytelling mixed with interviews makes for a great pace. * Great teasing of future episodes. * Great mentions of the website without being a giant plugging machine * Loved the passion, especially the “Aw C' mon!” * Website makes it easy to subscribe
What Might Need Some Work* The introduction needs a little more information to explain what the SHOW is about (and maybe just a tab more about what was going to happen in the interview) * The volume levels of some of the clips were low, and others were very high. While this didn't require the audience to grab the volume knob (Except for the very first bit of music) you want to keep an eye on it. * As the goal is to get more people to support the foundation, add a button for the foundation on the website.

Description:Being an engineer is challenging, but can be such a rewarding career. Every Friday, Mel & Dom will be sharing a beer with an engineer who will tell you all about their career and provide thoughts and advice for future engineers. If you are concerned or interested about the current and future life as an engineer, then this Podcast is for you.
What We Liked:Overall it's a good conversation. The open is nice & clear “On a mission to shine a light and share a beer with our incredible heroes that are today’s engineers.”
The beer sound effects are a nice touch without being too cheesy.
Some really good questions. What was the highlight of your career?”
I love the quotes in the show notes.
Nice touch with a video on the “about” page.
The website looked good on the phone.
Nice “be our guest” page on website.
Suggestions For Improvement:Possible add a little more “ I’d like to hear what’s in it for me.” into your introduction
The guest had a great background and we would've loved to hear more stories.
Maybe use “Why did you get into engineering” as a first question instead of “tell us about yourself.”
Some of the custom fonts might be a little hard to read.

Our ThoughtsWhat this podcast was really missing was a better intro. “This is Unstructured.” It didn’t even give me the tagline “Dynamic Informal Conversations” or the host name. You had the curse of knowledge where you knew the guest and jumped write in, but never clued the audience in to who we were talking to.
The introduction of the guest was, ““I read her first book a couple of years ago. I read her most recent book last year. This is Sharyl Attkisson.” There are other things the guest had on their resume that would've been very beneficial to the interview. She was a correspondent for CBS News from 1993-2014. Before joining CBS, Attkisson was an anchor and correspondent for CNN (1990-1993). From 1996-2001, in addition to her CBS News duties, Attkisson hosted a half-hour weekly medical news magazine on PBS entitled “HealthWeek. This would have made a better intro.
For example, you stated, “you have an amazing past and a really wonderful history. It’s kind of a weird situation because I find you completely brave but at the same time I find it troubling that you’re having journalistic integrity as bravery.”
I like the bold question. But we had no idea what you are talking about. If we had a better setup we might have. For Dave, he was preoccupied trying to figure out who this person was to the point that he was having a hard time listening to her answers.
There was a really nice discussion on free speech in the middle of the interview. The questions were deep. It was clear he did his research. At the end, we talk about her lawsuit against the government and her podcast. Those sound like great topics. I wish we would have touched on those during the shows.
The ending of the show was invisible. With no setup, you played two promos for other podcasts. With a better setup this might make more sense, but you also might consider coming up with a call to action to have people tell a friend and subscribe. If you want your audience to engage with you, you need to ask them to engage.
The WebsiteThe website had a very clean look with a great contact page and social proof. Dave was curious why there was no “About” page. Also move the searchbox up (don't make people search for the search box) and move the RSS buttons down.

The Stuff We Liked* Great inside look at being a cop * Great stories – would have loved even more * Great introductions * Good quick transitions * Great music * Erik liked the “game” of guessing how much the movie made (once) * I didn't even look at my phone until we were two hours in
The Items that Need to be Polished* While you explained that some of the cops were authors, Dave thought the inclusion of content that leaned toward “Film school” was the weakest content. If you cut ut out the show would be amazing * Use their names more often so we can keep track. The one person had a very identifiable accent, but the others didn't * Be aware you are exporting at a very high bit rate that is slower to download, takes up more room on your audience's devices and doesn't really deliver much better quality than 128 kbps. * As the movie was old, Erik would've been a bit more description of what was happening in the scene.
The Website* Whatcopswatch.com is a wall of text, no play buttons or subscribe buttons when you go to whatcopswatch.com * The site has improved since the last review * You do a good job of including every single thing in the show notes. * The black background can cause eye-strain after a while

Today we look at Curious Goods a show that takes a deep dive in the Friday the 13th television series and looks at the storytelling aspects and other areas that made this a great show. Audio Player at the bottom of the page The Stuff We Liked We enjoye...
The Stuff We Liked* We enjoyed the sarcasm and entertainment as you did the re-enactment of the episode * The ads were well done and to the point * The show is a very unique mix of story writing clinic and very old television series * Nice production * The female voiceover at the start of the show * Nice job of mentioning other shows and cross-promotion without being too spammy. * Good call to action “What was your curious good from this episode?” * Stopping the music let the audience know we've moved to a new section
The Items that Need to be Polished* Dave found the intro confusing. Erik would've liked a bit of a table of contents. * Explain what a curious good is sooner (you did a great job at the 35-minute mark) * Try to talk to one person and avoid group speak * Dave felt the background music got too loud at times * Identify yourselves sooner (but no need to say “I'm your host) * Add some credentials – why am I listening to you? * You guys agree on everything. Maybe find some different points of view. * The commercials break was very long. Possibly break these up into smaller chunks * Didn't get to the content until 7 minutes in and Dave thought this was too long * The easter egg at the end didn't deliver much value and the space between the end of the show and the easter egg is VERY long.
The Website* The site is cluttered and hard to navigate * Needs a style guide * iTunes link goes to the wrong show (and your subscribe buttons are lost in the clutter) * The Curious Goods show is missing on your show page. * The tag cloud ads no value to the visitor. See if you can move it down the page. * There is a lot of material for your business. There is more than enough advertising on each page. * Convocation is a very fancy word. * The logos have a nice theme that is followed in each logo.

What we liked about the podcastYou have a great website, with phenomenal show notes.
There was often good content, but it needed to be shortened
It's nice that your transcript is separate from your show notes
What Could Be ImprovedThere was an issues with “popping P's” that can be fixed with better microphone placement
Your little wrap-up up points were not little. These could be improved by shortening them. These are summaries (bullet points)
The “fun” questions were entertaining, but putting them at the very beginning may not be a good first impression
Be listening for places where a guest can tell stories
The recap led into a show close that felt like it lasted forever.
You have too many calls to action

Today we are joined by Leslie Eiler Thompson who is the host of The Rogue Ones podcast.
DescriptionConversations with extraordinary individuals on their own unique “rogue” journeys. We explore the experiences and opportunities afforded these rogues as they share successes and failures they've encountered along the way. We then, in turn, learn ways to adopt this rogue attitude for ourselves. These are the rogue ones, and these are their stories.
What Is WorkingOne of the best intros ever. Leslie is awesome at talking to one person and sounding sincerely friendly. You can hear your smile
I love the definition of what makes something rogue, and what the show is about, “We explore extraordinary people doing fascinating things. And we learn from them so we may adopt the same attitudes to develop a rogue lifestyle.”
You did a great job of incorporating the listening into the conversation as if they were sitting at the table with you.
Great website, great about page, and nice use of the logo/glasses
Nice tease at the end of the show for future episodes
What Needs Some WorkThere were sometimes when you had some great opportunities for stories, and you didn't follow up with a question (Billy Joel, “I learned a lot of lessons…”). “I spent a lot of time asking for forgiveness rather than asking for permission.” Give me an example. “Tell me about the time you really pushed the limit or broke the rules to get a result.”
With such great content, I would've left off the travel down memory lane about a pseudonym.

The description of the Route 66 Podcast is “talks with people living and working along the Mother Road.” You can find it at http://www.route66podcast.com/
The episode we reviewed is http://www.route66podcast.com/18-mojave-desert-route-66/
What We Thought Was Done Well* The opening with Dennis’ voice was unique. The phone quality added to the nostalgia of the episode. * Nice rustic opening music * Nice plug of the earlier episode * You do a good job of asking the questions and letting the guest talk * Nice tease with the trivia answer to keep people listening
What We Might Tweak* Dave thought taking 11 minutes to get to the interview was a bit too long, but Erik thought it was OK but would change the “Now let's start the show” to something different as you had been doing the show for 11 minutes. * There are times when you read that you need to add a bit of voice inflection and make some effort (either via pauses, or music) to make smoother transitions. * Your website has not title tag which is a vital ingredient to SEO and being found * Three calls to action at the end of the show. try to narrow that down to one. * The yellow highlighter color is a bit much to look at for long periods. * As your audience may be older, you might want to add a page with instructions on how to subscribe to the show * You have a great resource page, but didn't mention it much on the podcast. You can drive traffic by saying, “we have a video of this at the website route66podcast.com”

Websitehttp://amidlifetraveler.com/
What we loved about the show:Laura has a great voice and you can hear her passion. I did like that you were talking to me. You seemed relaxed. You were talking to one person. It was Nonscripted and loose.
Your website is a phenomenal resource.
It's great that you are interviewing the local people and getting that information you can't get anyplace else.
What Can Be TweakedThe laundry list of people that we’ll hear from at the beginning was hard to follow.
Figure out what you want your audience to take away from the episode and move that to the front.
You had said, “Famous for their moonlight kayak – sunset, near the woods, luminescence in the water, starlight serenade, violin and Irish songs.” Those are the details we were wanted. There is a tremendous opportunity to create a theater of the mind, and when someone did start to explain the lights on the water they were interrupted.
You brought friends on to help explain their experience, and they said:
- Amazing
- Awesome
- Cool Experience
- Fun and Super Cool
- amazing and beautiful
- Awesome, I love it
- Great Day
- Fantastic
- Great fun
but you never dug in deeper as to why it was cool or great, etc.
You seemed to be explaining how qualified the guides were to the point where I started to wonder if you were getting paid. You had already stated that you would be going back, so for me, that is enough to know the guides were good. I'd rather hear more about the experience than the guide.
You have a GREAT website, and we would get people excited about the destination, and then direct them to the website.
Get Your Podcast ReviewedIn today's episode, you don't hear the extra questions and a private lesson on Hindenburg Journalist that Laura received.

Ageless Hockey has a description of ” This is a podcast for hockey players over 50 years old.” The website is agelesshockey.com
Things We Liked in This EpisodeThere was some wise advice about not coming back from an injury early and how to NOT get your gear stolen
He did a great job talking to a single person. There was no group speak.
Shared some vulnerability which builds intimacy with his audience.
The audio sounded fine
The website is simple and easy to navigate.
Great “Start Here” option on the website
Great tease to get people to your website.
Things He Might Want to TeakThe transitions were very rough. You might want to see if the stories you are covering and be lined up in a way that makes it easier to transition from one to the other. Use your voice to signal you're changing topics. If nothing else, pause for a half a second.
The “something about me” section at the end didn't really tie into anything.
Erik would like to see you “turn up” the grumpy old man character a bit more.
Be sure to turn the focus around and ask your self, “Whats in it for the listener?”
Your call to action needs to be refined down to ONE.

DescriptionThe Copeland Coaching Podcast is made for job seekers who want to jump-start their job search. Each week we dive into career topics from interviewing to personal branding to applying and negotiating. If you want to switch industries, change careers, or make more money, this is the podcast for you!
Websitehttps://www.copelandcoaching.com/
What We Thought Was GreatIntro: “Turn job search into a slam dunk”. Great, short intro that told me everything
You did a good job of connecting the interview into this theme.
Your website the clean look. The homepage is very focused. It shows a lot of credibilities.
The second half of the interview had great questions that would be immediately beneficial to your audience.
What Could Use a Little EffortPart of the audio had a fair amount of static
There were no links to his books in your show notes
There was some low hanging fruit (The guest said, “That's a good question, and stammered at times) that Dave would've edited out.
Work some more stories into the conversation and drop hints into what services you offer
Your audio is being exported at 320 kbps stereo which is overkill
Avoid talking about things that happened before the recording
Avoid any group speak “Hey everyone.” talk to a single listener
Your courses button takes you away from your main page, and has no way to get back to the main site.
Try to limit your calls to action to one at the end of the show.

Description of ShowThe show is about the Delaney Family and living with someone with dementia. My mother has had dementia for two years now and I ‘m hoping that this podcast will help someone who's in the some situation. Also, I talk about my feeling on a lot of things like religion, politics, and there may even be a lot electronics.
So basically the shows is a little bet of everything that we do and get into as a Family. Check out the show at https://babymountainradio.com/
What We Found Michael Was Doing WellStarted off the show with a story and got to the story quickly
The stream of consciousness of the show.
The listeners feel the emotion and frustration.
Transparency of “I don't know all the answers.”
Nice call back at the end
Things that Need TweakedThe opening line of where podcasting’s hard work made fun is a bit confusing.
Maybe explain more what the show is about and what is in it for the listener.
I don’t see where I leave you a comment. Is it just on the “contact us” page?
The website is somewhat hard to read and the links get lost in the background
You are publishing at a very high bit rate, and that makes the file download slower and take up more room on people's devices.

Today Dave and Erik review the podcast “A Modelerslife.” All modelers have a life but what do we know of it. This podcast is as much about the people in model railroading has it is about the hobby itself. I've met so many interesting people in the hobby over the years I decided it would be fun to share their back stories with everyone else. So come along with me, Lionel Strang my trusty sidekick, Jim Rindt and Bruce the mail boy as we discover just how many fascinating folks there are in this great hobby.
Checkout their website at https://www.amodelerslife.com/
Things We Liked
Good chemistry with the crew
The audio quality was good for having such a large crew
Good follow up questions
A lot of in-depth analysis and tips on being a model railroader
Erik loved the story of how the father got his son into trains at an early age (because that's how most people get into trains)
Things that Could Be BetterAs new listeners, there was no introduction to the show (Welcome to the ___ where we ____). This doesn't have to be long, but tell people what the show is about and tell them what is coming up on the show, if you're not sure, this can always be added in post.
Dave is afraid having the name modelerslife all one word will make it harder to find in directories like Apple iTunes
While there is a nice “guys just hanging out working on their stuff” vibe, Dave felt there were time when you could edit some of the “Where should we go now?” discussion out of the show (and just leave you moving on to the next topic)
On your website, you have a link to explain what Patreon is, but on that page, there are no links to actually join and become a patron.
The music at the end could be used underneath the “goodbyes” and then shortened.
Toward the end when you were flipping through the facebook, it seemed like you were running out of ideas. This would be a good strategy for topics, but maybe do it in show prep, and then frame it better.
There are no links to subscribe to the show for Android people.

What is Working
I love the beginning of the show. There was a great tease and the housekeeping was quick
The advertisement was quick and to the point and the music behind it was fine.
I like that you gave a shout out to the latest patron
Good follow questions
Nice about page on your website
The shopping cart was smooth and looks nice.
It sounded more like a conversation than an interrogation.
What Needs Work
The intro music was a little long
The biggest issue is your guests audio, and you don' have much control over that.
You ask the question, and then you frame it. It's better to frame it and then end with the question
The menu area at the top of the website was annoying.
Be sure to keep the newbies in the loop

What We Liked About the ShowYou get right to the guest quickly
Very comfortable as an interviewer. Solid journalist.
The audio quality was fine.
You did a great job of asking questions and letting the guest talk
What You Might Consider TweakingThe first segment of the interview seemed a bit like a giant pitch for your guest
Your podcast is a bit hard to find on the site, and you have text links, but those could be hard to find on a mobile device.
Tell me about your history and how you got here” is like asking the guest to tell you their life story with no real direction. You know what your audience needs to know. Your guest doesn’t. Intro your guest and ask a question.
While you do a great job of spotlighting the guest, I didn't get to hear about you at all.
I would take the ad spots and use them for your products instead of promoting the competition
Your phone system breaks up on a consistent basis.
There is a lot of calls to action to call the show (and yet there is nobody calling). You might look into voicemail, and then set up a call.

Today we are joined by Dave the Producer and Juliette Miranda of the Unwritable Rant podcast. A great podcast featuring bourbon and great stories.
Find the show at http://www.theunwritablerant.com/ as well as in iTunes
What The Podcast Did Well
Juliette did a phenomenal job describing the bourbon, and the stories were great. The nicknames you had for your characters and the way you described them really showed off your writing chops. The theater of the mind was in full effect and had both of us laughing out loud. It was like we were in a scene of a movie as you revealed all the action (especially in the second story).
The audio quality is great, and you had nice pacing of the story.
The web design had a very minimalist approach making it easy to find things.
What Needed a bit of Tweaking
Both Erik and Dave were a bit confused as the intro didn't really explain what the show was about and at first, we thought the show was about bourbon. Juliette slid into her first story so smoothly, and neither one of us picked up on the fact that she was starting her story.
The website is a little confusing as you have two websites that bounce back and forth between the two. You might be losing some “Google Juice” by embedding a page with all your shows. Instead, why not write some notes as a blog post and put the podcast player on the post. It might bring more traffic to your site.
The call to action mentioned other stations, but if the goal of the podcast is to promote Juliette's books, it didn't do that very well. You might want to step back and consider what is the goal of the podcast and focus your call to action on that. You can do things like have all your subscription buttons on one page, and all the ways to contact you on one page (and then promote the site)
Your delivery was a bit like a casual reading of an author at a store. It was still being read but sounded very practiced. You sounded very close to being “off the top of your head.” If you're going to read, then announce it, and if you're not then maybe not practice so much so that it sounds more like a play performance than a friend telling a story.

Today we have Logan Anderson from the Say the Damn Score Podcast. His description is, “Say the Damn Score: An unprofessional podcast on professional sportscasting.” you can find it at www.saythedamnscore.com
Here is what we liked About the ShowThe intro helped shape the atmosphere and branding of the show (a fun, edgy podcast)
You got to the guest in less than 1 minute.
The volume levels were good.
The website has a clean and easy to navigate.
The interview was great
Logan did a TON of homework for his interview and it showed
He asked great questions, and because he paid attention to his guest, great follow-up questions.
What Might Need Some TweakingHis link to iTunes on his website started with “itpc://” which works, but you don't get credit for the subscribers (add your iTunes link in PowerPress under the destinations tab).
Erik enjoyed the somewhat sarcastic opening but thought that spirit got a little lost and would advise “putting a little more smile” into his voice at times.
At the beginning of the show, you might consider explaining what the show is, “Welcome to the Say the Damn Score show where we _____ for (typical audience). The average user can figure out it's a sports show but we should identify if we are talking about teams, leagues, etc.
Instead of having multiple calls to action (iTunes, email, etc) put those items on a single page so you can give one call to action.
Make the about page a little more outward focuses on what the show is about, how you're going to benefit, and who it's for.

The Fish Nerds podcast has a tagline, “Best fishing podcast that is always interesting, usually funny & mostly true.” This week Clay comes on to has us put the Fish Nerds Show under the microscope.
Here is What We LikedGreat branding. Everything seems well coordinated between the website and the podcast. You instantly know that you take fishing seriously, but not so much yourself (and this show is going to be fun).
Hugo's cooking segments were “Super Real” and we loved the quality from a field reporter. The “Take one for the team” mention of mercury in the fish was humorous.
Clay does a great job of sending people to his Facebook Group to keep the conversation going.
Loved that his guest was someone he didn't agree with and brought him on to have a dialogue.
You got to the content quickly.
Some Thing That Need PolishingA couple of dead links on the website
If Hugo could paint a picture a bit more with his words
Clay refers to “We” when it's really only him.
He has to be careful to not make sponsors sound like “the bad guys.”
You might want to change the word “Blog” to podcast (or make two categories and have both)
You might consider getting some swag made at Tee Spring as you have great quotes from your show that could make great swag
There were a couple of Facebook pings during the recording. At times the volume was a little unbalanced (check out www.auphonic.com)
Don't forget about the new people (or people outside the US) to explain the details.

Toastmasters 101 is a podcast for those people looking to know more about Toastmasters. Think if it is a beginning course for toastmasters. Kim Krajci, is the host and she also does the onthetablepodcasts.com (which for more advanced toastmasters)
Here are the things we likedI like that what you’re reading is not in the show notes.
Liked real life example of leaning on one arm
I like that you showed your own struggles
Love the actionable items, like “take the role of the toastmaster of a meeting”
Love the production, gavel tap & “meeting adjourned”
I like the light heated Tease
Some Things That Need TweakedThere is nothing wrong with reading your podcast unless it sounds like you're reading. Most of the time you can't tell, but you had a few glitches.
Where can I contact you or find more info? Where do I go from here? What if I am not in a Toastmasters group?
You mentioned the manual. Yet I can’t find a link to it.

This week we look at This is Rammy a podcast that is here to keep you informed and entertained about news and events in and around Ramsbottom, that’s the one line description right there. Lee is a super nice guy.
Here Is What We Liked
Good audio, and the website is nice and clean.
We loved the hyper local focus. Lee could become THE source for local news.
Lee shared some short stories about what was going on with this life. We both felt like he was talking directly to us.
He put the personal stuff at the end for the die-hard fans.
He did a good job of “Shouting out” his audience
The events section is a great resouece
Things He Could Tweak
He was a little stiff (announcer-ish) at the beginning.
We both thought he should invest in some stickers to promote the show.
It's a touch call because he doesn't need to state the obvious, but there may be people listening that need those details.
We both would've appreciated a way to help the person who had the fire
Maybe give a little more details on the owner of the restaurant (again, hard to balance)
Promote your website address a bit more to help drive people to your website.
Maybe give bonus content to the email list.

Punched up is a podcast by Michael Malone and this is not your typical comedian interview show. Mark takes the stories that are only heard in the “Green room” backstage at comedy clubs and brings them to life in a well produced format similar to a style you might hear at NPR.
The Good ThingsThis show is so well edited, and produced.
We liked the quick into and how he got right into the story
The website has a simple/clean design, and the occasional colors make things stand out.
There are lots of opportunities to subscribe on every episode.
Things That Could Use a TweakingIn the event someone downloads your episode (which Mark had turned off) you are missing the ID3 tag for the image.
Eric thought the music at times should be used more as a transition, not to be used to set the mood (there are times when that works, and other times when it becomes distracting).
Be more specific with your call to action. If you want tweets, give your Twitter handle, make it easy to subscribe.
Mark is using Feedburner, which was a good idea in 2006. It does occasionally stall, and its not needed (it causes some issues every now and then).

Today we talk with Bruce from the Germ Free Zone. Bruce has done something no other podcaster has done. He has brought Dave and Erik in before he even launched his show. He wanted feedback before he gets into iTunes. Here is what we found:
Good Stuff:
Bruce has a great intro, his kids are cute, and his passion is obvious.
Bruce has great fats, and great personal stories that really sucked you in.
Things That Could Be Improved:
His use of music throughout the episode became distracting.
He needs to get his kids to slow down when they read.
Work on the layout of the show. It might make better as a shorter show with a great tease about the next show.
A little focus on the germ free zone, and the membership site, and the complaint form.
Bruce's show will be coming soon

Today Dave and Eric take a look at the VR Workforce Studio.
Here are the things we feel are working:
Like the highlight intro and creative intro. It got our attention, had a certain “what’s coming next” with the changing voices.
Nice job getting guests to tell stories.
Very descriptive in Rick’s intro, and we knew what to expect.
“Tell us about the view from the passenger seat” great question
Great pace, and you keep things moving.
Here are some things we feel could be improved:
You introduced George's story, got me teased in and then went to the other guest.
Music in middle of George’s answer was a little distracting.
Music between George and Mary sounded like we were going into another story
Your headline, “George Dennehy and his rise to stardom as a guitarist and singer” has no mention that he has no arms
Dave felt a little lost going to Mary's story and then back to George.
At time some radio cliche's snuck in.

Doug Salamone aims to bring interesting stories and interviews with points of view from a different mindset on his Mind Drippings show. The world needs innovative, artistic, entrepreneurial disruption to develop and evolve.
Today Eric and Dave go over his episode, his audio, and his website. Here is what we found:
What is WorkingThe intro was nicely produced and made a great first impression. It sets the stage and let's people know what to expect.
He made some really good points, and worked in some stories to help make points
The website has a clean interface
The podcast feels like a discussion rather than a question/answer session.
Great logo
What Could Be TweakedDoug could work on starting out the show by introducing his guest and really explaining who the person is, what they bring to the table, and why they are on the show. Then the first question could push the conversation in the direction Doug is looking to go.
At time his transitions from topic to topic was a bit choppy. There is no reason to announce that you are changing topics (just change topics).
There are no ID3 tags in his mp3 file. While the mp3 file will still download the file, you can look like a hack when someone listens in certain programs.
You image is set to a resolution that can't be viewed by web browsers. Change the image to 90 DPI, and I would resize it (it's currently thousands of pixles).
The paragraphs above the subscribe buttons didn't quite fit.
There were two “About” pages, it might make more sense to combine these with the top section being about the show, and a second paragraph about the host.
Great discussion of the history of work and the possible future. It might've been nicer to have more useful info that listeners can put to work today
Dave felt that the show could've used a bit more editing to get rid of what he felt was “excessive” ums.
If the goal of the show is to build your email list, you might want to add incentives to get people to sign up.

The Short Time Wrestling Podcast covers the world of Wrestling (not the TV type). Jason Bryant comes on the show to see what he’s doing great, and identify items that may need some tweaking. Doing Well Doing a great job pulling stories out of guests Obvious show prep and really knowing your guest Great forum with lots of activity Content moves quickly Well produced Nice information on website Could Improve A bit of a band confusion with URLs, names and website (who is TOM). Could use a bit of white space on the website Be careful with yes no questions Avoid the obvious question, and find a new slant on those. When I am on TheOpenMat.com, the podcast is hard to find (under features) -
The Ministry Encouragement podcast is to help encourage Christ Followers. It is hosted by Jim Hollis. Here is what we thought.
The intro was nice. You might consider explaining a bit more what the podcast will be about.
You need a pop filter
You seemed a bit stiff (it almost sounded like you were reading the contents)
When you talk about personal stories it is more engaging. The story about witnessing on a plane really grabbed our attention. That was great. You could take it one step further and use descriptive words to really pain that picture in the theater of the mind.
Come up with a call to action, and don't be afraid to mention your service.
Use bullet points for your show notes, and just talk into the microphone as if you are talking to a friend.
Your website is clean. It needs an "about" page.

What are you thoughts about the Ministry Encouragement Podcast?

Fat Pitch Radio and TV is great a podcast put together by Gary Lealand. In the episode we listened to he pulled his community in by soliciting questions from his facebook group.
His website looks great, and his audio is well done. The advertisements that he inserts into his show are entertaining and brief.
When interviewing people he should just go to the next question instead of announcing that he is going to the next question. All in all a great podcast for those who love past pitch softball.

Today Dave and Erik review the Catholic Travel Jounral. This podcast is "The weekly audio journal about our pilgrimage preparations. We publish a new show every Monday." You can find them in iTunes
The Good Stuff
Good job of keeping things flowing, and sticking with theme (St pats).
Good audio.
Nice album artwork
The way the hosts engaged with the guest. Nice follow-up questions.
The personal, conversational style felt like we were talking at the kitchen table
Great use of vivid words with the dinner and backyard descriptions
Things That Could Be Tweaked
Define the show for the audience right in the intro every episode. Set it up. Why am I here?
Control your guest. He sometimes talked a long time. Ask questions to get him to focus.
Use more vivid descriptions and great follow-up questions. Ask what your audience is asking in their heads.
Depending on your choice, non cathloics are a bit lost (but then again, I’m not your audience).
Don’t send people to pages with nothing. Would you keep a question in your podcast if you asked a yes or no question and they answered “no”? same things for websites.
Overall, I got confused if you went on the trips or just read about it. I felt the intro could have included an explanation of the show

Due to a family emergency the show we were going to review could not make the show this week. In its place I went back into the vault of the podcast review show. I found episode 1 from May 2009. I chose a show I really liked called Digital Flotsam from from P.W. Fenton.
This is a well produced podcast that is delivered with lots of warmth and preparation. P.W. Fenton doesn't produce on a redictable schedule, but when a new episode is out he comes with a great story. If you want to feel the power of stories, click the play button below.

Why are You Podcasting and Who is Your target Audience
One of the great things that the live format allows is we can understand the reasoning behind what you're doing.
We love to help you identify your goals, and your audience.
Identify What You Do Right
Our goal is not to just beat you down, but to identify what you're doing right (so you can do more of that).
We will point out those items that need tweaked. In some cases you think your content is coming across one way, and we heart it in a completely different light. They key to this is we provide constructive criticism.

Description:
TWO MINDS. ONE WORLD. ZERO PATIENCE.
Marc Raco and hosts discuss what’s wrong with the world, showcase new artists, and throw around pop culture, entertainment, food, news–everything’s on the menu!
There’s curmudgeon producer Elsie, inventive games, fun, interviews, guest jokes and much more in every one-hour episode—plus there’s always the infamous End of Show Food!
With more than 535,000 worldwide downloads/streams since releasing our first co-hosted episode October, 2012—and growing every day—everyone is becoming a monkey!
Dave’s Thoughts:
The Good Parts:
They have done a good job of changing their episodes names.
I liked the dialog more than the forced funny.
You seem to do a good job of getting out of a topic once you hit it.- for the most part
Your website better, but still needs work
You have better titles than the last time.
Parts That Need Tweaked
Marc should invest in a dynamic microphone - its right at the point of annoying.
Lose the background music in the background ot get some without lyrics
Move the second intro closer to the beginning to help your momentum.
My complaints about Blog talk radio are not your fault. You are somewhat screwed, and moving away from them will be difficult if you want your audience to follow. (Blog talk radio messes up your ID3 tags, points to the wrong website, and hijacks your RSS feed).
Erik's Thoughts
The Good Parts
The details of the stories were solid. They become genuinely funny when you are mentioning cartoons you watched or describing skiers collapsing.
Know what you hope to accomplish with the story. Lead with an intriguing intro. “My girlfriend called a help desk and I totally busted they guy with his bait-and-switch move.” Then tell the story.
Parts That Could be Tweaked
Jokes tend to be predictable. Name one president that wouldn’t be included in a Presidents Day Sale? Nixon. How about Vladamir Putin? Somebody people don’t expect. Funny is when you lead people where they think you should go and then do the unexpected. Of course the sales call ended with “no”. Where else could it end?

The Engaging Life and Leadership podcast is Discussing relevant answers for Christian men AND women in leadership positions. Easy to remember – Simple to apply. It is hosted by Darren Dake and Anita Brooks. You can find their website at www.engaginglifeandleadership.com. Today episode features Erik K Johnson better known as the Podcast Talent Coach.
This show will stick in my mind for a long time. It took a LOT of effort to get through this. I am not a prude. I laugh at comedians like Louie CK, Chris Rock, and Eddie Murphy (back in the day). I loved Sam Kinison. I laugh at South Park and the Family Guy. I love to laugh. This show is billed as a comedy. I didn't hear any sarcasm. I didn't hear an commentary on life that pointed out ironic behavior. There is (under neath it all) formulas that work in comedy and in opinion (and that's all this is) this show doesn't follow any of them. If you think the phrase "Who doesn't masterbate at funerals" is funny then this show is for you. For me, it's stupid.
I watched Saturday night Fever. I watched the Wold of Wall Street (which set a record for the number of times "The F Word" was used in a movie). There was a story. There was CONTENT. This podcasts seems to swear because they want to be edgy. They have icing, but no cake.
The premise of the show is they take words that have been submitted by the audience and make a show out of that one word. This is something similar that improv groups do where they pull multiple words from a group and try to fit them all into a sketch. I've seen Second City in Chicago (a group that was supplied much of the cast for the first season of Saturday Night Live), and even that group had 30% of their content bomb. In general, good content does not happen by winging it.
In today's show the highlights are:
A girl sings I'm a little teapot out the window
One of the hosts is leaving
They do a prank call
They talk about the co-hosts surfing for porn on his phone.
I typically say content should move your audience. It should inspire them. My question is, "What do the crew and One Word Go Show want us to do with this?" OK it's a comedy show. They expect us to laugh. I get that. For me (being in my late 40's) I didn't find it funny. Maybe if you're between the ages of 15-22, you will.
The Lightning Bolt That Is Breanne
If you are a offensive enough person on reality TV, you will get your own show (see Honey Boo Boo, see Ambrosia, etc). On their website she is described as "She’s very open about her life, and doesn’t give a crap what you think. " She reminds me of Cartman's "Whatever I do what I want, only Breana would say "I do whatever I F#*king want Bitch."

For me, they lost me in the first 3 minutes with the endless unnecessary swearing. I do thank Mat for giving us a heads up that what was coming was immature, "dirty", and at times violent.
How to Swear Properly
The F word is a word to accent a level of intensity. If you you broke up with me, I might say you broke my heart. If you broke up with me after I bought you a leather Jacket for Valentines day and you're now dating my brother, I might say you F#*king broke my heart. If I use the word without respect for its power, you drain it of all it's power. It loses it's effect. Please respect the F word. It's one of the best words we have.

You might look at a post that I did a while ago that talks about Howard Stern had more than just dirty word. When he was on regular radio that required him to be creative.
I have a sneaking suspicion that heavy drinking occurs before this show starts recording (as some of these topics are - in my opinion - are not as funny as the laugh they inspire).
What This Show Does Well
They provide a disclaimer at the beginning of the show
They have easy to find subscribe buttons
They made sure to have proper ID3 tags
They put together some production music to introduce segments etc.
Nice Mickey Mouse imitation
What This Show Could Do Better
Get to the word first. I didn't know who Breanne is, so I didn't care that she was leaving.
Start well and end well. Come up with something funny at the beginning of the show (you may think your disclaimer is funny).
Add some treble to Dan's voice,
Aside from the confusing name, this podcast starts off hot out of the gate and sucks you in with usable step by step advice on being a better person and handling life's little problems.
What They Are Doing Right
They have GREAT titles for their episodes.
They have good audio quality, and they get right to the point
They are honest, and provide strategies and tools to deal with situations.
Charlie does not hold back on telling relevant stories about himself (key word relevant).
Technically their file was in good shape.
The podcast clocked in at 32 minutes. They came in, hit the topic and quit.
They have the latest podcast one click away for new visitors.
What They Could Improve
There was one spot where Tony repeated exactly what Charlie had said. You might want to do this while recording so you both are on the same page, but I would cut it from the published podcast. Diane found the double confirmation a bit annoying.
Fade the music in at the end under the talking.
Add a subscribe button under the one episode on the front page (strike while the iron is hot).
Get a better email address that you don't have to spell
Explain up front what the heck Seishindo means.
You went over nine steps in the podcast, and then listed none of them on your site. Your post had less than 90 words. If you want more Google juice bump that up to 300.
I'm a but confused why they have a membership, but didn't mention it on the podcast.
Conclusion
This was a podcast that had us both listening intently, and both want to hear another episode. Great stories and skills to put to good use.
Find them in iTunes
Today we review the Photo Business Exposed Podcast (at photobizx.com) by Andrew Hellmich. This is a podcast for people who are doing photography professionally and are looking to grow their business. The podcast has received a ton of 5 star reviews in iTunes and I was worried about reviewing it (as I appeared on an episode). Luckily, I didn't find much room for improvement. Here is the break down.
Could Improve?
At the beginning of the show there is a bit of hiss. Not a ton, and under most circumstances you wouldn't even know it. It sound like Andrew is using a noise gate which takes the noise down to zero when nobody is talking. For me this typically draws my attention to it. Once the interview started, it seemed to go away.
I like the small bit of chit cat at the beginning (I typically want all chit chat to tie in with the podcast topic, but this was brief). He then went into subscribing to the podcast using other tool like iTunes, stitcher, etc. I would move this toward the end. It was 6 minutes before he got to the interview, and you hadn't given them any "real" information to make them go, "Wow I want more of this in the future." This would be something to do at the end.
While he has links to iTunes and Stitcher, he needs a regular RSS button (for those on android, or other platforms that the ultimate flexibility - and this is what I use to put a player on this website). I forgot to mention this on the podcast.
What He Did Correct?
Good name - its obvious.
Great looking website using the Avana theme that was east to navigate, and lots of great pictures. I liked that when you go to listen to the podcast, the subscribe buttons are more obvious.
Great audio levels, and proper ID3 tags.
It wasn't a giant commercial for his membership site, and he gave a full interview to his audience. He didn't stop mid interview and go "If you want the rest, you need to join." Instead we got a full interview and if you want to go deeper into the topics, you can sign up for $10 at his membership site.
He asked good questions, and let his guest reveal great information. He listened and didn't try to inject his opinion. I felt like he was asking the questions his audience would want him to ask. The guest spelled things out in a clear to understand, easy to act on, manner.
He is building an email list. As there is a business behind this podcast (his membership site) this is a good idea.
If you are into photography (and maybe if you're just looking to grow your business) you can gleam alot of information out of this podcast.
Find his podcast at photobizx.com and in iTunes and Stitcher.
