How to Record a Podcast
Lessons learned after 30 episodes
It’s now been over a year since I began to learn how to record a podcast. That’s right — Keeping Up with Joe is now over a year old. And, after 30 episodes, thousands of downloads, and plenty of great guests, I’m ready to teach you what I’ve learned. And it’s been a lot.
How to Record a Podcast — Don’t Be Afraid to Explore
A year ago, I had a process in place for my show. Get an awesome guest — check. Come up with good questions — check. Send guests a zoom link — check.
After a while though, I’ve only just now realized how much I didn’t know about podcasting. Subsequently, I’ve decided to revamp my show, and upgrade everything from sound quality to topics and beyond.
I could tell you all the lessons I’ve learned (and I will tell you some of them) — but of all the lessons I’ve learned from producing my podcast up to this point, my best advice would be this — don’t be afraid to explore.
Start somewhere — it doesn’t even matter where! You don’t need to be a recording master, a great interviewer or anything else. You just need a microphone, an idea, and the guts to make noise.
