    Are PowerPoint Templates In Our Future?

    Episode #246 - New episode of The Presentation Podcast now available! In this episode, Troy, Sandy, and Nolan discuss the value and challenges of PowerPoint templates. They agree that well-built templates save time, make brand consistency easier, and improve efficiency. But everyone also agrees PowerPoint templates are frequently misused, broken, or ignored. While AI tools can generate content and slides, that is not the same as creating slides with the backend formatting and presets of template. And observations from testing multiple AI systems, all currently lack the ability to build or maintain proper template structures. Join The Presentation Podcast hosts for a great conversation centered around PowerPoint templates. Episode Show Notes https://thepresentationpodcast.com/2026/e246 Show Suggestions?

    e245 - Inside the Creative Process: Designing a Partnership Pitch Deck

    In episode 245 of The Presentation Podcast, Troy and Lori Chollar of TLC Creative Services give us access to their team's design process by pulling back the curtain of a completed partnership pitch deck project. This project got them thinking about how we all approach presentation design. Everything starts before a single slide is designed with understanding and defining the purpose and type of presentation this is, which then influences the visual design and on-slide messaging. Their candid conversation is a great listen full of strategies and ideas for crafting visually rich, purpose-driven presentations. Listen now!

    e244 - When Bullet Points Go So Bad They Are Not Needed

    In Episode 244 of the Presentation Podcast, hosts Troy, Sandy, and Nolan use a real client slide as a case study to discuss when bullet points hurt rather than help a slide. Join the conversation as they explore how unnecessary bullets clutter slides, disrupt narrative flow, and actually reduce audience retention. Get into design alternatives, and if bullet points are needed in numbered lists, icon layouts, diagrams, timelines and visual hierarchies.   Oh, and they also catch up on recent travels and share industry news! That part of the discussion includes Microsoft's new AI image tool, practical travel tips on Global Entry, a new podcast tracking site... and plant pest control!   Listen at The Presentation Podcast website, or just click play and listen now!   Full Episode Show Notes https://thepresentationpodcast.com/2026/e244   Show Suggestions?
