9: Podcasting on the Go
Did you know that the top two reasons for Podfade (podcasts that suddenly drop off the face of the Earth) are overwhelm, and lack of interest in podcasting?
The thing is that Podfade doesn't need to happen to you, if you're proactive and creative about your process.
I've created this episode to help you think of podcasting as an actual process to experiment with. At the end of the day, it's your show, so you can call the shots on the best ways to podcast. But you may be asking yourself…
How can I podcast on the go?
The answer is simple: consider how you best work, and don’t be afraid to try new things!
If your brain gets activated when you:
go for a walk
go on road trips
like to be in nature or gardening
are in new places
Then you have to consider podcasting outside your studio walls.
What types of shows work well for podcasting on the go?
It depends, but they normally include these categories:
Yoga, mindfulness, or active shows
Travel shows
Music shows
Gardening shows
Roadshow podcasts
Conference podcasts (or hosts who travel for conferences often)
Interview-based shows
Architecture shows
etc
What type of equipment do you require for a podcast on the go?
You can use a simple set up: just like your smartphone and an external microphone, or a Zoom recorder (with a windshield), or a laptop, with an external microphone, and camera, or even a DSLR camera with a shotgun microphone.
The sky is the limit, so what will you try?

Takeaways from this episode:
Experimentation leads to newfound creativity in your podcast process.
As long as you set up expectations with your audience, it’s possible to create professional content that is more ‘mobile’, or that doesn’t have ‘studio quality’.
Podfade happens because of a lack of a process that works with the podcaster’s routine and habits.
Not enough podcasters experiment with podcasting on the go because they think they’re supposed to be stuck at the studio, creating content.
