    515. Why Podcasters Need a Publicity Plan

    Growing a podcast gets exciting fast, but the moment podcasters need a publicity plan is usually the same moment things start feeling a little more exposed than expected. In this episode, our cast and crew talk with publicist Cyndee Harrison about what happens when your voice starts reaching beyond your own audience and why visibility brings more than just opportunity. We get into reputation, media attention, handling criticism, difficult guest moments, and the reality that people may judge your entire brand off one clip or one headline. You know the one, that comment or moment that sticks in your head way longer than it should. We also talk through practical ways creators can prepare before chasing more exposure, from media kits to personal branding and knowing what your show actually stands for before things go sideways. By the end, the conversation keeps circling back to one uncomfortable truth: the bigger your platform gets, the more important it becomes to know who you are before everyone else decides for you.

    514. 3 Storytelling Tricks That Make Podcasts Addictive

    There’s a reason some episodes stay in your head long after they end, and a lot of it comes down to the storytelling tricks happening underneath the surface that you barely notice while you’re listening. In this episode, the PMS cast and crew break down how a bizarre tech problem from 99% Invisible turned into a fully addictive audio mystery, and why the tension, pacing, curiosity loops, and live experimentation kept everyone locked in even while feeling frustrated the whole time. We talk about how tiny specific problems often create stronger stories than giant vague ideas, why letting listeners experience discovery with you builds trust, and how collaborations can pull audiences deeper into a show when done right. You know the one, that episode where you keep saying “just try this already” but somehow you still can’t stop listening. That’s exactly what this conversation taps into, and by the end you start realizing the difference between simply sharing information and creating something people genuinely need to hear through to the end. Episode Highlights: [01:51] Show Spotlight Plug [02:48] Episode Overview [03:51] Why It’s Obsession-Worthy [05:09] Hook and Stakes [06:34] Curiosity Loop [09:01] Crossover Collaborations [10:22] Proof It Happens [11:54] Testing the Madness [16:26] Escalation and Sound [18:51] Percent Sign Theory [20:18] A New Explanation Emerges [21:24] Creating Podcast Tension [23:28] Intentionally Editing Cliffhangers [24:04] Storytelling with Purpose [24:48] Tomorrow’s Show Preview [25:34] Mystery Payoff Explained [26:40] Mazda Safe Feed Solution [29:30] Debating the Ending [33:35] Obsession Engines Breakdown [37:42] Collaboration Opportunities [42:59] Final Takeaways and Wrap-Up Links & Resources: Feature Your Podcast on the Podcasting Morning Show: https://PodcastingMorningShow.com/spotlight The Podcasting Morning Show: ⁠⁠www.podcastingmorningshow.com⁠⁠ Ways to Watch or Listen:⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.podcastingmorningshow.com/joinus/ Meet the PMS Cast and Crew: ⁠⁠https://podcastingmorningshow.com/people⁠⁠ Join The Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group: ⁠⁠www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredpodcasting⁠⁠⁠ Book A Free Call With Marc: https://calendly.com/ironickmedia/freestrategycall Application To Submit Your Show For Evaluation: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podcastingmorningshow.com/eval⁠⁠ Join us every other Monday at 8 AM ET for the Obsession Worthy Podcasts:⁠⁠⁠ http://podcastingmorningshow.com/owp/⁠⁠ Join us LIVE every weekday morning at 8 am ET (US) on ⁠Clubhouse⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podcastingmorningshow.com/clubhouse⁠⁠ EPC3 Speaker Application:⁠⁠ ⁠https://empoweredpodcasting.com/speakers Powered by⁠⁠⁠ ⁠iRonickMedia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠ ⁠ContentCreatorsAccountant.com⁠⁠ Send in your mailbag questions:⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.podcastingmorningshow.com/contact/⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠marc@ironickmedia.com⁠ Want to be a guest on The Podcasting Morning Show?

    513. Why Independent Podcasters Are Losing Control

    Independent podcasters are slowly losing control of their reach. In this episode, the PMS cast and crew talk with podcasting veteran Rob Greenlee about RSS, platform control, and AI-generated content. They explore why creators are being pushed into closed systems, how video and API distribution could erode podcasting's open foundation, and why trust keeps surfacing as the real problem underneath everything. The conversation also covers AI creeping into production, cloned voices, and the feeling many creators share when the tools move faster than they can keep up. You won't leave with easy answers, but you'll probably think differently about who actually owns your audience and your future in podcasting.

    512. The One Question That Keeps Listeners Hooked

    Some podcast conversations feel casual on the surface, but the PMS cast and crew noticed there’s usually one deeper thing keeping you listening, and in this case, it all came down to the question that keeps listeners hooked: what would you do if your adult child needed help again? As the episode unfolds, a simple story about a tire issue slowly turns into a conversation about parenting styles, communication between couples, assumptions we carry into decisions, and the moments where listeners quietly start comparing the story to their own lives. We talk about opening hooks, co-host chemistry, story structure, and why certain questions create tension that makes people lean in instead of tune out. There’s also a bigger takeaway about conversational podcasts in general: listeners stay engaged when they feel recognized, not lectured, and the strongest moments usually happen when hosts stop trying to sound polished and just let the real discussion happen. By the end, it’s less about whether the tire got paid for and more about the uncomfortable little questions that keep following you after the episode ends. Episode Highlights: [00:50] Sponsors and Co-Hosts [01:47] Spotlight Clip Submissions [03:21] Show Evaluation Setup [06:00] Who Is This For?

    511. The Video Race Reshaping Podcast Hosting | Podcast News

    Video podcasting keeps creeping into every corner of the industry, and the PMS cast and crew get into why reshaping podcast hosting may have less to do with audience demand and more to do with platforms racing to keep up with each other. We talk through the growing push from hosting companies adding video support for Apple, Spotify, and YouTube, what that means for indie creators already stretched thin, and whether all this added complexity actually improves the listener experience. You know the one, that feeling when every platform suddenly acts like you’re behind if you are not doing the latest thing. That tension sits underneath this whole conversation as reshaping podcast hosting starts changing how creators publish, distribute, and think about their shows moving forward.

    510. Stop Telling People to Check Out Your Podcast

    Most podcasters assume discovery is the hard part, but the PMS cast and crew get into what really happens after someone clicks on your show. We talk through that moment when a listener is deciding where to start, and why telling people to “Check Out Your Podcast” without direction usually leads to them leaving instead. From trailers and websites to hand-picked episodes and social clips, this conversation keeps circling one idea you’ve probably felt before, you know the one where you open a show and have no clue what to play. If you don’t guide that moment, someone else will get their attention instead, and they may never hear the episode that would have made them stay.

    509. The Lie Keeping Podcasters Broke

    The belief that great content will eventually turn into money sounds right, but it’s often the very thing holding creators back. In this Money Monday conversation, Ralph Estep Jr., me and our cast and crew get honest about why so many podcasters stay stuck, showing up consistently, building attention, and still not seeing income follow. We talk through what actually changes that path, from having something clear to sell, to understanding what your audience truly needs, to getting comfortable promoting yourself and hearing no. Here’s the thing, you know that moment when your podcast feels like it’s working but your bank account says otherwise? That’s where this episode sits, calling out the mindset that ends up keeping podcasters broke and reminding you that content alone isn’t the business, it’s just the starting point.

    508. Why Going Viral Won’t Save Your Podcast

    In this episode, we talk about the viral moment so many creators secretly hope for, that one clip, one guest, or one algorithm push that suddenly changes everything. But the PMC cast and crew get honest about what actually happens when attention spikes, why it does not always bring the right audience, and how chasing views can pull you away from serving the people your show is really for. We also get into the quieter kind of growth, the slow drip of better episodes, clearer messaging, stronger systems, and listeners who come back because the work actually connects. Here’s the thing, a viral moment might open the door, but it will not build the room for you.
