    How to handle a situation where you forgot to press the record button?

    Episode Transcript Hello, podcasters.  Welcome to another episode of Jeff's Podcast Academy.  A Podcast dedicated to Podcasters.  In this podcast, we don't just talk about the how-tos but how not to as well.  I am an AI-generated voice created by Jeffrey and he wrote this entire episode script.  Don't worry it's not from ChatGPT but rather his own experience.  In today's episode we will see how to handle a situation where you have forgot to hit the record button and it's already been 20 minutes or worse even more.  There was one time in 2019 when Jeffrey had a guest who was a podcast consultant.  He has almost 20 years of experience in the podcasting space. Basically, he was into radio first then came on to podcast production.  So Jeffrey and the guest started the recording and it was a pretty smooth start.  That's when Jeffrey saw the dashboard on Zencastr. The horror! The big red button was not pressed.  As much as Jeffrey wanted to abruptly stop the guest from going on he couldn't do it.  It was his first time in a situation like this.  But somehow getting up all the courage Jeffrey said "Hey Matthew I'm so sorry let me just stop you right there. I kind of have a bad news." The guest asked, "Why what happened?" Jeffrey said, "I forgot to hit the record button." Normally in situations like this, the guest would have said "Come on man how can you be so careless?" Fortunately, it wasn't in this situation.  The guest said, "Oh man it's alright this happens even to the best of us. I just talked about my introduction in these past few minutes I think you can make it your own version and add it as an intro right?" Jeffrey can't and shouldn't say no to this. he said, "Yes Yes, thank you so much." Then Jeffrey happily hit the record button and the recording went on for almost an hour.  An important point to note here is that - this kind of gesture isn't shown by everyone.  Only people who have been in this situation will understand how it is. If it's someone who values their time so much this might backfire.  So always double-check and say once the guest hops on to the platform that we are going to hit the record button and say "3, 2, 1 and start" then start the question or the introduction.  So let us know about your experience of not hitting the record button on time.  Before you leave Jeffrey has added a template called "Podcast guest instruction." So basically this template would stop the back-and-forth email to your podcast guest and make it a single point of communication - A google doc or a notion doc.  The template has been tested for different shows and it's proven to be extremely effective.  The link is available in the description. It would mean the world to him if you check it out and download it.  https://jeffreyboopathy.gumroad.com/l/tjygb

    I creeped out my guest once.

    Episode Transcript:I remember a particular instance with a guest named Lucy. She's a journalist, and to prepare for the interview, I decided to do a deep dive into her LinkedIn profile. While it helped me identify potential pain points and discussion topics, I'll admit it felt a bit strange at times. During the interview with Lucy, I brought up something from her past, something that happened around 10 years ago. Her surprise was palpable—she couldn't believe I knew about that particular detail. I chuckled as she asked, "How did you know this?" I had to confess that I had simply gone through her LinkedIn history, tracing back to her earliest posts. Reflecting on that experience, it's clear that while researching your guests is essential for crafting meaningful conversations, there's a delicate balance to maintain. There's the risk of creeping people out, or worse, making them feel uncomfortable with how much you know about their past. It's a reminder that thorough research should be handled with care, focusing on areas that are directly relevant to the interview's objectives. -------------------------------------------- Disclaimer:Hey guys Jeffrey here with another episode. So you might have noticed a strange voice which is not but an AI voice. Before you go and unsubscribe me hear me out. I have been sick for the past 2 weeks and the promise of posting episodes every day - I just couldn't follow up. No matter how much good content I have because of my health I can't do it. So I have written the episode script myself and I have posted it. Hope you enjoy the episode. --------------------------------------- Audio - Elevan Labs

    Media Kit Checklist for Podcast Guesting.

    Episode Transcript:When it comes to creating a media kit, especially for platforms like Pod Match or other podcast guest directories, it's crucial to focus on providing impactful information right from the start. Assume that people might not look past the first page, so that initial impression matters a lot. 1. Eye-Catching Introduction: Begin with a compelling coverage image or design related to your book, consultancy, or expertise. Follow this with a concise yet engaging summary that highlights the essence of what you bring to the table. This is your chance to grab the attention of potential hosts. 2. Bio and Photo: The next page should include your professional photo along with a brief but impactful bio. This should emphasize your qualifications, expertise, and accomplishments related to your field. This helps hosts quickly gauge your credibility and relevance. 3. Social Proof: Incorporate any relevant social proof that boosts your authority. This could be awards you've received, accolades, recognition, or quotes from credible sources that endorse your work. Social proof adds credibility and indicates that others value your contributions. 4. Sample Questions and Angles: Dedicate a section to possible interview angles and example questions. These questions should be well-thought-out and aligned with your expertise. This not only gives hosts an idea of the kind of topics you can discuss but also makes their job easier. It showcases your preparedness and commitment. 5. Specific Topics or Chapters (if applicable): If your expertise covers multiple areas or if you've authored a book with distinct chapters, consider providing an outline of specific topics you can delve into. This demonstrates your versatility and depth of knowledge across various subjects. 6. Contact Information: Always include clear contact information. Make it easy for hosts to reach out to you if they're interested in having you as a guest. Provide your email, website, or any other preferred method of communication. 7. Formatting and Design: Keep the media kit visually appealing and easy to skim. Use headings, bullet points, and concise paragraphs to ensure key information stands out. Maintain a consistent design that aligns with your brand and showcases professionalism. Remember, the primary goal of your media kit is to make a strong impression quickly. You want hosts to see that you're a credible, prepared, and valuable guest. -------------------------------------------- Disclaimer:Hey guys Jeffrey here with another episode.

    3 important elements for appearing as a guest on the podcast show

    Episode Transcript: I'd be glad to share some tips and a template for those who are looking to appear as guests on podcasts, especially if they have a book, consultancy, or something valuable to offer. 1. Create a Compelling Media Kit: When reaching out to podcast hosts, make it easy for them to see your value. Craft a media kit that highlights who you are, your expertise, and what you can bring to their audience. Include your credentials, notable achievements, and prior podcast appearances. This way, hosts can quickly assess your suitability and the value you can offer. 2. Utilize Podcast Matchmaking Tools: To streamline your efforts, consider using podcast matchmaking platforms like Pod Match. These platforms connect hosts and guests based on compatibility and mutual interests. I've personally found Pod Match to be effective—it's like a dating app for podcasters. It helps you connect with hosts who are actively seeking guests with your expertise. 3. Offer Value and Network After Each Episode: When you're a guest on a podcast, your interaction doesn't have to end with the recording. After the show, ask the host if they're seeking other guests who align with your experience. This shows your willingness to help and can lead to recommendations for other podcast appearances. Additionally, inquire if the host knows other podcasters who might be interested in your insights. This fosters a reciprocal networking environment that benefits everyone involved. -------------------------------------------- Disclaimer:Hey guys Jeffrey here with another episode.

    I once had a guest that talked for an hour straight

    Episode Transcript:I once had a guest on my show who, despite being sent a list of questions in advance, answered all the questions in one continuous monologue that stretched for an hour and a half. Reflecting on that, I now understand the importance of maintaining a balance between depth and brevity in responses. For me, it highlights the significance of knowing the intended episode duration. When both the host and the guest are aware of the expected length of the episode, it becomes a useful guide. It indicates when to provide in-depth insights and when to keep the discussion concise and engaging. In my own approach, I've incorporated the practice of keeping my responses within a reasonable timeframe. I aim for responses that range from around 30 seconds for succinct points to a maximum of two minutes for more complex explanations. This strategy allows me to offer valuable insights while still enabling the host to steer the conversation and maintain an interactive and engaging dialogue. Ultimately, as hosts and guests, our goal should be to create a podcast experience that truly resonates with the audience. This involves striking a harmonious balance, facilitating an engaging exchange of ideas, and delivering content that is both insightful and manageable for listeners. -------------------------------------------- Disclaimer:Hey guys Jeffrey here with another episode.

    The importance of "Pre interview talk" for host and guest.

    Episode Transcript: When it comes to being a guest on various shows, there are several crucial aspects that both hosts and guests should consider to ensure a successful and meaningful conversation. As a guest, my approach centers around delivering value to the audience. Instead of solely focusing on self-promotion, it's essential to emphasize what knowledge, insights, or experiences you can offer that will genuinely benefit the listeners. This audience-centric mindset is key. From the guest's perspective, it's also important to establish your credibility without overshadowing the core message. Sharing your background and expertise in a humble manner can help the host and audience understand why you're a valuable source of information. Shifting to the host's standpoint, transparency is crucial. Providing guests with a clear understanding of the format, expectations, and technical details of the show helps create a comfortable and informed environment. For instance, if video will be involved, it's considerate to mention it, especially considering the varying degrees of preparation required. Considering the editing process is equally important. Being upfront about whether the conversation can be edited allows guests to adjust their responses accordingly. Knowing whether it's a one-take scenario or if there's room for adjustments can significantly impact the flow of the conversation. Understanding the intended audience is paramount. As a guest, knowing who the audience is enables you to tailor your insights and examples to be relevant and relatable. If the listeners are professionals in a specific field, aligning your discussion with their interests creates a more engaging experience. In summary, effective communication between hosts and guests prior to recording is vital. Guests should focus on delivering value to the audience, establish credibility, and be receptive to the show's format and audience. Hosts should provide clarity on technical details, editing, and the intended audience to ensure a seamless and impactful conversation. This collaborative approach sets the stage for an engaging and informative podcast episode. -------------------------------------------- Disclaimer:Hey guys Jeffrey here with another episode.
