Wise Advice From Very Smart People Oct 05, 2020

Show notes

A couple of years ago, I witnessed a moment of sage wisdom while sitting in a roomful of computer programmers and software engineers. These math geniuses, fluent in speaking the language of code were presented with a flustering problem that stopped everyone in their tracks. Until the wisest of them all stepped forward and asked the room...

"did you google it?"

In this episode, I share this complete story and remind you that when you get "stuck" with a tech issue as a podcaster, there are have been many before you that have already solved that problem.

Thanks so much for listening and I hope this helps you with your podcast! :)

Out Of Your Comfort Zone Sep 21, 2020

The act of doing a podcast, for many, is truly stepping outside of your comfort zone. I hear this from all of the amazing people I work with.

And why not? When recording a podcast, you are basically in a room, alone, talking to yourself :)

But, in stepping out of your comfort zone, you can create something amazing. And in this episode, I share with you the secret to finding "comfort" when stepping outside of your "comfort" zone.

For Podcast Interviews, You Gotta Be Prepared! Sep 07, 2020

Show notes

Continuing the conversation around conducting incredible interviews, this week I am going deep into the "preparation" part.

You see, an incredible interview, is like dinner with your bff that you haven't seen in three weeks. You come into this conversation prepared and ready to listen. This is how all interviews SHOULD be...but they're not.

And often, it's because the host isn't prepared.

I share with you how bad this can sounds, how to get prepared and the time Matt Damon called. And we weren't prepared.

Three Secrets To An Amazing Podcast Interview Aug 31, 2020

Show notes

Why do some interviews sound incredible? Where you listen for 45 minutes, or an hour, or even longer and you feel like you can't get enough of a conversation...

And some interviews sound like a bad interragation...where it just feels like the host, straight from a bad WWII movie, is drilling the guest with a bunch of questions.

This episode of Your Podcast Coach goes through THREE secrets to know before you jump into your next interview!

A (Podcast) Conversation Amongst Friends Aug 10, 2020

Show notes

After publishing a new episode every day for 30 days, I got a call from my best friend and podcast "muse", Kevin and he wanted to interview me about the 30 day process. With Kevin's background as a talk-radio host, I knew he would bring a good conversation out.

This is a rich discussion about publishing consistently, being vulnerable and what makes good podcasts...great!
