A lively “Show and Tell” episode of Podcast Super Friends, five podcast producers from across North America—Catherine O’Brien, Johnny Podcasts, Matt Cundill, Jon Gay (Jag), and David Yas—gather to share their latest insights, tools, and strategies for podcasting success.
The group kicks off with a roundtable on podcasting hardware, comparing microphones like the Shure SM7B and the RØDECaster Duo, and offering practical advice for both new and seasoned podcasters.
The conversation shifts to the power of AI in podcast production, with detailed discussions on using ChatGPT and Descript for editing, show notes, and creative brainstorming. The hosts share their favorite AI-driven workflows, tips for interview prep, and the importance of human review in the editing process.
Monetization is also on the agenda, as Matt explains how RedCircle’s programmatic ads can generate passive income, even for shows not hosted on their platform.
Johnny and Jag had a few helpful plugins for those who want to go beyond Adobe Enhance.
