Now that you've laid the groundwork and prepared yourpodcast, it's time to start recording your first episode. Learn quick, easy methods, to high quality, pro approaches.
Learn how to make a podcast, from simple, quick ways to high-quality, professional ones.
First thing, what are you going to talk about? If you choose the wrong episode topic, then your costly equipment wont do any good. Listeners won’t care about the show
Figure out what your ideal listener care about.: * What questions are your listeners asking? * What problems are they experiencing? * What are they struggling with, right now?
First, start with a detailed script, until you find your confort level on the mic. Then, reduce the detail, till you find that balance between time spent, benefits gained and recording style.

While recording a podcast with other people in-person , that’s when a digital recorder comes in handy. The reason being, it’s hard to record with more than one USB mic into a single computer.
A USB audio interface connects to your computer as if it were a USB mic, but you then plug in and run XLR mics into it. This is a great option for computer-based podcasters who want to improve their audio quality
For solo recording or a two-person interview, use a lavalier mic (tie mic or lapel mic – those you see clipped to a shirt!) and it plugs right into your smartphone.
