Send us feedback/questions via TextIn this episode, we talk about the unpredictability of podcasting when things like power outages shut things down, strategies for running better interviews, and the importance of prepping your guests and your own questions. We dig into what actually makes a podcast “advanced,” swapping thoughts on whether it's about the gear, the content, skill, style, or just deeper expertise, and debate the value and pitfalls of reading guest bios and how to make your intros less boring. We explore why podcasting should stay fun (using Kevin Chemidlin's rebranding example), how to analyze whether your episodes are resonating through completion stats, and why being flexible and responsive to your audience is key. We also field questions about buying email lists for podcast marketing, talk about using AI for scripting and idea generation, and share advice for podcasters who want to stand out and grow their shows, emphasizing relationships and community over shortcuts. As always, we have a ton of laughs, plenty of audience participation, and the kind of practical tips and real talk every podcaster craves.Sponsors:PodcastBranding.co - They see you before they hear youBasedonastruestorypodcast.com - Comparing Hollywood with History?Mentioned In This EpisodeSchool of Podcastinghttps://www.schoolofpodcasting.com/joinPodpagehttp://www.trypodpage.comHome Gadget Geekshttps://www.homegadgegeeks.comEcamm Livehttps://supportthisshow.com/ecammEmber Community Training https://supportthisshow.com/emberDealcasters Appearancehttps://www.podpage.com/dealcasters/unlock-your-podcasts-front-door-with-dave-jackson/Video VersionChapters:00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:31 Power Outage Stories01:40 Sponsor Shoutouts04:57 Interview Tips and Techniques20:04 Advanced Podcasting Discussion30:50 Listener Questions and Feedback41:46 The Value of Longer Content44:06 Effective Call to Action Strategies44:39 Monetizing Your Content45:35 The Importance of Audience Engagement47:27 Challenges with Facebook Groups49:36 UnderThis week's awesome supporter is Greg from the Indie Drop-in Network.
