Hi everyone! In this inaugural episode, we explore the critical role of audio quality in podcast engagement and listener satisfaction. We examine a recent Twitter poll which revealed that over half of the 305 respondents consider poor audio quality the primary reason for abandoning a podcast.Listener grievances include subpar audio, the perception of amateurism, the annoyance of excessive sound effects, and the frustration with easily avoidable technical issues. We also talk about:The impact of audio quality on the listener experienceCommon audio pitfalls that plague podcasts and alienate audiencesSimple yet effective strategies to elevate audio quality, regardless of budgetListen now to discover how prioritizing audio quality can be a game-changer for your podcasting journey!Mentioned in today's episodeDispelling the "Audio quality is less important than content" mythProducts Used for Be a Better PodcasterNote: these may contain affiliate links, so I get a small percentage of any product you buy when using my link.Equipment:Google NotebookLMHindenburg ProAuphonicRecommended resources:Captivate.fmSubstackBoomcaster remote interviewing Be a Better Podcaster is a tips and growth podcast brought to you by Jamie and Jaayne.

For the last 14 years, I’ve been involved in podcasting. Okay, that’s not quite correct - I published my first podcast episode back in 2009 on BlogTalkRadio, but then didn’t record anything else until 2016. So, technically, I’ve been in the space for the last 7 years - my bad!Over that time, as podcasting has grown in popularity both for podcasters and listeners, it’s safe to say that growth has also attracted the usual crowd of experts and gurus that offer their “expertise”, usually for a large sum of money, to unsuspecting podcasters looking to grow their show(s) and enjoy whatever modicum of success they’re looking for.Now, that’d be fine - after all, everyone deserves to make a living. But, sadly, a lot of the advice given is misunderstood at best, and outright shilling at worst, where they just want to make a quick buck out of a new and eager audience.So let's bust the myths that these "experts" shill.Support the show: Become a Premium Member for ad-free early access, exclusive live streams, and more.Contact me: danny@dannybrown.meProducts I use for Pod ChatNote: these contain affiliate links, so I may get a small percentage of any product you buy/use when using my link.My equipment:Shure SM7B dynamic micRodecaster Pro II production studioSony MDR-7506 Studio Monitor HeadphonesElgato Wave Mic Arm Low ProfileRecommended resources:Captivate.fmBoomcaster remote interviewingPoddin transcriptsReel.so audiogram creatorMentioned in this episode:Enjoy Pod Chat?

There are a lot of studies on how podcasting can benefit listeners when it comes to their mental health, but this isn’t the case when it comes to the creators behind the podcasts. And that’s more than a little disconcerting. Because podcasting can be such a lonely endeavour, this only exacerbates the issues someone might be going through that are multiplied when their anxieties about their podcast start to take over.For those that are suffering, it’s often in silence. Even though it’s 2023, mental health still carries a stigma around it - according to the American Psychiatric Association, more than half of people with mental illness don’t receive help. A lot of this can come down to the fact that people are so unwilling to talk about it - going back to that belief they're weak, or there must be something wrong with them and only them. Or, worse of all, they believe it's "all in their head" because they've been told that often enough.This is where talking about mental health, and encouraging open conversations around the topic industry-wide, can be an important step forward in recognizing the loneliness and fear that can come with podcasting.Support the show: Become a Premium Member for ad-free early access, exclusive live streams, and more.Contact me: danny@dannybrown.meProducts I use for Pod ChatNote: these contain affiliate links, so I may get a small percentage of any product you buy/use when using my link.My equipment:Shure SM7B dynamic micRodecaster Pro II production studioSony MDR-7506 Studio Monitor HeadphonesElgato Wave Mic Arm Low ProfileRecommended resources:Captivate.fmBoomcaster remote interviewingPoddin transcriptsReel.so audiogram creatorMentioned in this episode:Enjoy Pod Chat?
