94: How to Get Good Sound for Your Podcast Part 6: Talk To Your Guests and Co-Hosts
September 29, 2022 10:00 - 12 minutes94: How to Get Good Sound for Your Podcast, Part 6: Talk Through Audio Gear with Your Guests and Co-Hosts Before You Start Recording Good sound quality isn't the only thing you need to be successful in podcasting, but bad audio quality will cost you listeners.

93: Good Sound Part 5: On Recording Remotely
February 27, 2021 22:50 - 13 minutesIf you only need to record your own voice, or maybe a couple people in the same room, you won't have a hard time ending up with a podcast that sounds good. However, if you want to record interviews or episodes with guests or co-hosts that are in different locations, getting good sound becomes harder. You won't have any control over which microphones the other people are using, if they use good mic technique, if they know how to set input gain levels correctly, what kind of room or location th...
92: Good Sound Part 4: Your Room
February 06, 2021 18:24 - 5 minutesLast episode I talked about mic technique and how to set gain levels. This week I'm going to talk about how the room you're recording in might affect the quality of your sound. The most important thing is to pay attention to how you sound in your room. The room you're recording in is probably only going to cause problems if there are a lot of hard surfaces that reflect your voice back enough to make it hard to understand what you're saying. If you hear an echo in your recording that bothers y...

Just a heads up: If you're listening to this episode in a podcast app, I'd recommend switching over to the YouTube video, as I believe it's easier to understand mic technique and input...

How to Get Good Sound for Your Podcast, Part 1: Why It Matters, and Why Buy a Nice Microphone
January 16, 2021 18:44 - 23 minutes - 21.1 MBI've been obsessed with things that sound good for as long as I could remember. I've always loved music and the effect it has on my body and brain, so I got interested in the process of creating and capturing sound when I was young. The first podcasts I started listening to back in 2008/2009 were professionally produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered by folks who had been working in radio for a long time. So they sounded really good. Then I started listening to some shows produced by norma...

December 12, 2020 22:18 - 25 minutes - 17.4 MBWhy are you procrastinating? This is an important question, and is worth considering, reflecting on, and writing about. It could be a few different things. You've decided that something else is more important. What are you doing (or what should you be doing) that's more important than your podcast? Maybe a podcast isn't what you're supposed to be focusing on right now. That's ok! You can come back to podcasting later. I'd suggest prioritizing sleep and rest, exercise, time with family...

Dealing With Haters
September 12, 2016 09:00 - 31 minutesIf you podcast long enough, you're going to get criticism or negativity. You can't create work and share it with the world without experiencing it. I say you haven't really made it until you've got haters. If people feel strongly enough about what you're doing to love it, then someone is going to feel strongly enough to hate it, or at least severely dislike it. I'm still pretty unknown, and I know that because I've only ever received negative feedback once (ok, a couple times now). I coul...
