Hey, Podcasters!
Most podcast advice focuses on how to keep your show going. But this week on Buzzcast, we explored a different question: When is it time to start something new?
We're not talking about quitting podcasting. In fact, quite the opposite.
We're talking about when a podcast naturally reaches the end of its run.
Sometimes it's because your interests evolve. And other times, you've learned so much from your first show that you're ready to apply those skills to a new idea.
One of my favorite takeaways from the episode was that some projects end like a funeral, but others can end like a graduation!
You finished what you set out to do, and now you're excited about what's next.
In this episode, the Buzzcast team talks about several reasons podcasters start a second show:
• They've discovered a new topic they're genuinely excited about • They've outgrown the original format • They want to experiment with a different style of podcasting • They have uncovered a new idea while creating their current show
The good news is that none of the work from your first podcast goes away! You still have the skills, the experience, the confidence behind the mic, and everything you've learned along the way.
So if you've been kicking around a new podcast idea or wondering whether it's time to explore something different, I think you'll really enjoy this conversation!
Episode of the Week
The past few weeks, you've heard me talk a lot about video podcasting. It's an exciting time to be thinking about video, but it can also be confusing to know if it's the right fit for your podcast.
In this episode of Insider Secrets to a Top 100 Podcast with Courtney Elmer, Alban and Courtney discuss how to know if video is worth adding to your show and what it takes to do it well!
