wagner Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 One of the things I'm kicking around at work is starting a weekly pod cast for the magazine. It will be drag racing focused since that's kind of what I do, but I want to hear what some of you would want to hear from a weekly pod cast. Here are my ideas: Cover news from the magazine to generate traffic for the articles Have weekly guest(s) on show Talk with industry people about tech items Listener questions for experts or guests What would be the length of a pod cast you'd be interested in and what items am I possibly missing? I want to make this something that racers and performance lovers would enjoy and want to check out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Nice Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Podcast lengths vary, obv, but the ones I listen to the most are around an hour long. If the content is good the time flies by. This gives you time to have those multiple segments in each episode. Some folks like shorter listens due to not really liking any type of talk radio but all of the big ones I subscribe to stay right around that hour mark. I think your content ideas are great. Weekly guests may or may not be a problem but I wouldn't promise one every week just in case something happens where that person can't show up or call in or whatever. Our tiny little podcast is just comedy based BS. We aren't big, have done 13 episodes, but we're starting to get a feel for it. I found out today we've got, like, 13 listeners in Ireland, 8 in Sweden, and 5 in the UK apparently. LOL Never know who will listen so just focus on content ideas and let the convo flow naturally. What kind of equipment and hosting are you thinking of using? I recommend Podbean. From there it can cast out to Spotify, iTunes, Google Play, etc. It's silly cheap and fully customizable as well. Here's ours for an idea: https://buckhornpodcast.podbean.com/ It's totally free for listeners to sign up, subscribe, leave comments, etc. I'd also recommend checking out The Joe Rogan Experience and The Last Podcast on the Left for some good ideas.
