Hey man. So I've done a bunch of podcasting stuff before, from short form content to full episodes. One of the things you can do is to allow other members of the community to submit short form content to your show. This can be from as short as 90 seconds, to up to 15-20 minutes depending on what you want. This can be people talking about a specific topic/giving their perspective etc.Mark_MSX wrote:An update on interviews for the podcast:
Hey everyone, I have been spending the last few days thinking about how I am going to regularly get guests on the podcast. As I mentioned in my first episode, I would like to conduct live calls with members of the community. However, when I think about some of the barriers many members of the community will face for coming on the show (like audio equipment, matching my time schedule, and perhaps feeling unsure of what you want to say) I thought that it would be good to introduce an alternative as well.
So this is the idea that I have come up with. In addition to the call in option, I also want to see if you guys would be interested in taking part in written interviews. How it will work is that I will send you a link to a google doc. On that google doc I will write a question and you can write a response. Then, I will write my response to your response and we can have a conversation back and forth. What is nice about this is that is doesn't have to be done in one sitting and we can conduct the interview according to our own schedules. This could potentially be a much more reliable method for getting guests as well. Then, once the interview is completed, I will read through the interview for the podcast. This is also nice because I could fit in more interviews per episode.
What do you guys think? Anyone interested in trying this style of interview for the podcast? I at least want to try it once and see how it goes.
Sincerely,
Mark
That's one idea anyway.
