Speaker:

So you want to start a podcast, but you're stuck on episode

Speaker:

ideas. I feel your pain. So here are five

Speaker:

unique concepts that I've just dreamed up off the top of

Speaker:

my cerebral cortex just for you.

Speaker:

Try recording an episode while taking a walk. You can take

Speaker:

in the sounds of nature and that will add an extra bit

Speaker:

of ambience to your recordings.

Speaker:

Grab it all crunching leaves, tweeting birds,

Speaker:

and maybe even some dogging

Speaker:

love, history and true crime. Why not visit a haunted

Speaker:

mansion or museum? The haunting sounds and

Speaker:

your own unsettled voice will add to the atmosphere.

Speaker:

If you're covering wellness topics, then maybe recreate the

Speaker:

car map. But slightly more interesting. Get yourself on the

Speaker:

beach and get all the crashing waves and the shrill

Speaker:

seagull noises. Do you meet friends for coffee?

Speaker:

I bet you any money you get political, right? Why not turn that into your

Speaker:

podcast? Meet your podcast host in a Starbucks or

Speaker:

Costa and start discussing the events of the

Speaker:

week. Have the sounds of fellow coffee lovers enjoying their brew in

Speaker:

the background. It absolutely adds to the effect. And if you're doing a

Speaker:

comedy podcast, why not think about actually doing

Speaker:

it? In a comedy venue, deals can be struck

Speaker:

and ambience is there to be grabbed. Remember, great content is

Speaker:

all about creativity, not just plugging in and hitting record.

Speaker:

Try these ideas out and let your imagination run wild.

Speaker:

Oh, and let me know what you do. Party master

Speaker:

by casting quick tip.

About the Podcast

The Podmaster: podcasting growth advice and insights for people and brands
Guiding you towards podcasting mastery
I'm 'The Podmaster', here to help you with podcasting growth advice and insights, whether you're a brand or an individual who's looking to grow your podcast and attain 'podmastery'.

My name is Neal Veglio and I've been in the podcasting game since 2001, when I became the first person in the UK to upload audio of my then radio show online, and generate an audience.

This audience followed me throughout my radio career and engaged with my various other podcasts.

But it wasn't always easy.

And when I took a career break from radio for a few years in 2007, I had to learn how to build audience without the lift of an FM frequency.

I now help other podcasters to achieve their goals through my company Podknows Podcasting.

Each episode, I'll be offering you some insights into what I've done and what I've helped my clients do with our podcasts in the hope we can help YOU increase your podcast's chances of becoming more successful!

And ensuring you can avoid the dreaded 'podfade'!

As the UK's longest serving podcaster (having started in 2001 before it was even known as a 'thing') I've seen a lot of changes to the industry. Having launched more than 100 podcasts over the years, I help brands and entrepreneurs to get their marketing messaging out 'in the wild', but in a compelling, not boring way.
