- 0:34Speaker 1: of the weekly podcast Podcrashing and Podcrashing one on one.
- 0:39Speaker 1: These episodes are connecting listeners to podcast specialists around the world.
- 0:44Speaker 1: The goal has always been to inform our community with
- 0:47Speaker 1: subjects that deal with everything and beyond. Podcast hosts are
- 0:51Speaker 1: usually very open and always filled with the spirit that
- 0:55Speaker 1: spreads their skills as journalists, medical specialists, true crime solvers, gamblers, motivator, spiritualists, actors,
- 1:01Speaker 1: and even their children. You know what, here's the thing,
- 1:04Speaker 1: There is a podcast for every subject. Do not ever
- 1:07Speaker 1: be afraid to share a podcast or a message. Podcrashing
- 1:11Speaker 1: one on one has been with me since March of
- 1:14Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. The original goal was to put focus on
- 1:18Speaker 1: helping up and coming podcasters to have the right information
- 1:22Speaker 1: about hosting as well as surviving inside the podcast world.
- 1:26Speaker 1: That idea win fifty four episodes before I finally got
- 1:29Speaker 1: this idea. Wait a second. You're talking to all of
- 1:31Speaker 1: these podcasters. Why don't you let them share their expectations
- 1:36Speaker 1: and their journeys growing forward? The purpose of Podcrashing one
- 1:40Speaker 1: on one is to help you build your own platform,
- 1:44Speaker 1: to promote it and earn money. This is Podcrashing one
- 1:49Speaker 1: on one episode number four hundred and sixty two. What
- 1:53Speaker 1: happens when your podcast is something that you bang out?
- 1:57Speaker 1: Ugh Man, that's a pet peeve word with me. Do
- 2:00Speaker 1: not ever use that word bang out around me. But
- 2:03Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I got to learn something here, Okay,
- 2:05Speaker 1: because you got to brace yourself on this one. Because
- 2:07Speaker 1: research is showing that banging out a podcast actually exists.
- 2:11Speaker 1: But but, but but we aren't going to start there,
- 2:15Speaker 1: because we need to have something that isn't negative. There
- 2:17Speaker 1: are actually positives when it comes to banging out your podcast.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Listeners love it because it's raw, off the cuff, it's honest,
- 2:25Speaker 1: and more importantly, it's not smelly and stinky, like something
- 2:28Speaker 1: that's been overproduced. Now we can bring in the downside
- 2:32Speaker 1: of this thing called banging out a podcast and inconsistent identity.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Many of them can't figure out who they even are.
- 2:40Speaker 1: There's no tone, there's no point of view. It's fuzzy.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Banging out a podcast creates shallow moments. If you aren't
- 2:47Speaker 1: investing time in the show, prep openly talking about it,
- 2:50Speaker 1: and mentally preparing yourself, then you should expect a downpour
- 2:53Speaker 1: of shallow moments. Now, what happens after you finally realize,
- 2:57Speaker 1: oh god, I'm banging stuff out. You don't have to
- 3:00Speaker 1: start all over because it's not gonna be a thing
- 3:02Speaker 1: that you can easily shake off. So let's say we
- 3:05Speaker 1: just keep doing the banging out of our podcast. Well,
- 3:08Speaker 1: here's the thing. If it's not broke, you don't have
- 3:10Speaker 1: to fix it. There are long term forks in the road,
- 3:14Speaker 1: and you're gonna need to know how to slip and
- 3:16Speaker 1: slide without fading away, which is what most who bang
- 3:19Speaker 1: out their podcasters do. Those who choose to bang out
- 3:24Speaker 1: usually last about maybe ten episodes. Coming up next, let's
- 3:28Speaker 1: put focus on this thing called long term forks in
- 3:31Speaker 1: the road. Hey, welcome back to podcrashing. One on one
- 3:35Speaker 1: long term forks in the road. We've all had a
- 3:39Speaker 1: podcast where we really do just bang it out. I
- 3:43Speaker 1: admit to it. It's happened. No gilt trips here. But
- 3:46Speaker 1: if you bang things out once and it feels good, oh,
- 3:50Speaker 1: there's a big chance you're gonna return to the big
- 3:52Speaker 1: bang out. Okay, the long term fork in the road
- 3:57Speaker 1: when you bang it out and the podcast becomes content
- 4:01Speaker 1: for content. Uh oh, what you're doing within your podcast
- 4:05Speaker 1: and coming across ass is actually something that's burned out. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Wait before we can go on. Please no, I won't
- 4:13Speaker 1: say no to a good bangout, but what I will
- 4:17Speaker 1: say no to is something that was lazily put together.
- 4:21Speaker 1: I'm banging it out because actually, on a serious note,
- 4:26Speaker 1: studies do show that misquotes are usually shared when the
- 4:30Speaker 1: broadcaster or podcaster is loosely sharing a story. You know
- 4:34Speaker 1: that fake news stuff. Oh, it's based upon this, it's
- 4:37Speaker 1: based upon this, This is what I read. Really, do
- 4:39Speaker 1: you know what you're talking about or is it based
- 4:41Speaker 1: upon what you thought you were going to talk about?
- 4:44Speaker 1: Loose on the truth, listeners make what they call a
- 4:48Speaker 1: secondhanded opinion, and it calls for whether they believe you
- 4:52Speaker 1: or if they don't believe you. You are the one
- 4:55Speaker 1: who originally decided what you're going to bang out. Is
- 4:58Speaker 1: it a direct quote or is it the truth? And
- 5:01Speaker 1: here's the truth. The definition of banging out is in
- 5:04Speaker 1: the hands of the beholder. You know when it feels
- 5:07Speaker 1: like a good or bad bang out. If you feel it,
- 5:11Speaker 1: guess what you're gonna get. We talked about that already.
- 5:14Speaker 1: It's okay to bang out your podcast. It's your decision.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Just do some editing before posting it. Your bangout gets
- 5:25Speaker 1: old stale. When you're lost, so are we. And that's
- 5:31Speaker 1: when we hop out. And if you're connected to advertising dollars, oooh,
- 5:35Speaker 1: you just lost out. I'm Marrow and that's podcasting one
- 5:39Speaker 1: on one
