Podcasting Morning Chat

Why did you start your podcast? Was it for money, passion, or both? Today, we play a TikTok clip from the Okay Sister Pod that lays out three honest tips for launching a show. Their takes sparked a lively debate. Some agreed that podcasting shouldn’t begin with money as the goal, while others argued that it is possible to earn if you approach it with a clear plan and treat it like a business. We also discuss the reality of low early downloads, why consistency matters more than a weekly schedule, and how to reframe your analytics. To close out the week, we keep our Friday tradition alive by sharing and celebrating wins from our community.Episode Highlights: [03:21] TikTok Clip: Okay Sister Pod Launch Tips[06:00] Don’t Do It for the Money Debate[09:00] Business Plans, Sponsorships, and Monetization[13:00] Why Podcasting Is Harder Than It Looks[26:00] Slow Growth and Managing Expectations[36:00] Consistency and Communication [41:00] Friday WinsLinks & Resources: Join The Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group:www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredpodcasting⁠Get Your Tickets for The Empowered Podcasting Conference:www.empoweredpodcasting.comClip From Okay Sister Pod:www.tiktok.com/@okaysisterpod/video/7362940797903310122It’s Amanda Yoa:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/its-amanda-yoa/id1646444562ReThinking Podcasting by Matt Bliss:https://rethinkingpodcasting.com/episode/alive-internet-theory-and-actually-seeing-your-listenersLate Bloomer Living by Yvonne Marchese:https://www.latebloomerliving.com/Remember to rate, follow, share, and review our podcast.

Today, we’re focusing on what podcasters can learn from shows that break the mold and still manage to form deep connections with their audience. Jonathan Howard continues our Obsession-Worthy Podcast series with a look at "Everything Is Alive," a show that turns simple ideas into emotionally charged, memorable storytelling. We explore how a strong creative constraint can open new doors and why unexpected formats can be effective when rooted in intention. We also weigh in on sound shaping emotion and creating space for humanity in any format, even the most unconventional ones.

Are filler words quietly sabotaging your podcast? In this episode, we dig into how subtle speaking habits like verbal crutches, awkward pauses, or rushed delivery can affect how confident and trustworthy you sound to your audience.

Recently, I had one of those gut-punch moments every creator dreads: a dream interview, a perfect conversation… and I realized afterward that I never hit record. It was embarrassing, frustrating, and, honestly, it shook me more than I expected. Instead of hiding it, I’m bringing the whole story here, the missteps, the emotions, and the lesson I learned about giving myself grace when things go wrong. And I’m not alone. In today’s episode, other creators from our community open up about their own podcasting fails. What starts as a collection of mistakes becomes something much more meaningful: a reminder that every podcaster, no matter how experienced, eventually stumbles.If you’ve ever felt the sting of a creative setback, this conversation is here to remind you you’re human… and you’re in good company.We’ll be taking Thanksgiving week off (Nov 24–28) to rest and recharge.

What truly keeps a professional audience listening? Today, we put Exam Room Nutrition under the microscope to find out. We evaluate how storytelling flow, clarity, and pacing shape that crucial first impression, and all of this plays into listener trust. We look at how clearly the episode speaks to its target audience, where the messaging connects, and where it drifts. We also review the title, cover art, and episode description to see if they clearly match the promise of the show. We also break down what keeps a professional crowd engaged and what may cause them to tune out.Shout out to an OG podcast coach, Cliff Ravenscraft for joining us and being a part of the evaluation team this morning!Episode Highlights: [02:10] Podcast Evaluation Overview[04:36] First Impressions of the Podcast[06:46] Audio Quality and Technical Feedback[15:30] Discussion on Podcast Descriptions[21:44] Cover Art and Title Suggestions[29:58] Optimizing Episode Titles[31:54] Podcast Players and Episode Numbers[32:21] Episode Descriptions and SEO[52:14] Podcast Outro and Listener EngagementLinks & Resources: Join The Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group:www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredpodcasting⁠Exam Room Nutrition: www.examroomnutritionpodcast.com/123-carnivore-omnivore-nutrivore-how-to-shift-from-calorie-counting-to-nutrient-densityTo Have Your Podcast Considered For Evaluation, Please Complete This Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc8-Xv6O6lrNPcPJwj3N0Z5Osdl-5kHGz_PiAU45U57S-XgoA/viewformCliff Ravenscraft:https://www.cliffravenscraft.com/podcastRemember to rate, follow, share, and review our podcast.

How often do you feel overwhelmed by all the steps it takes to produce content? From research to recording, editing, publishing, and repurposing, it’s a lot. Today, I’m putting the spotlight on co-host Nick Nalbach, who recently built a custom project management app to tackle this exact problem. Even more impressive? He built it in just 48 hours using AI, and he’s not a coder.We talk about the mental load that comes with content creation, what inspired the build, and how his app helps track time spent on each task. The idea is simple: know how long things really take so you can plan better and stop beating yourself up. We also dig into how AI will soon help the app suggest when to work on creative vs. admin tasks based on your personal productivity rhythms.Plus, I share my first impressions of the new Zoom PodTrak P4Next, a portable, affordable podcasting tool that could be a smart option for creators on the go. Whether you’re a gearhead or not, I think you’ll find this conversation equal parts inspiring and practical.Episode Highlights:[01:21] Meet the panel and podcast evaluation reminder[04:14] First impressions of the Zoom PodTrak P4Next[08:49] Justifying new podcast toys (yes, it’s a write-off)[13:10] P4Next vs. original P4 — what’s different?[14:54] Why Nick built a custom project management app[18:57] How the app tracks workflows and time spent[22:56] Future AI features: research, recommendations, and more[31:18] Using mood to guide task planning[32:33] Why Nick isn’t sharing the app name just yet[33:26] Claude Pro vs. ChatGPT for coding tasks[39:22] The surprising tool Nick used to build the app[41:42] How to join the beta and test it for yourselfLinks & Resources:Nick's Article about his new app: linkedin.com/posts/marcronick_content-creators-of-linkedinpay-attention-activity-7392959995354501120--b_0Email Nick to join the beta: nick@nextgenpodcaster.comFollow Nick on IG: https://www.instagram.com/ninebythree/Zoom PodTrak P4Next: zoomcorp.com/en/us/podtrak-recorders/podcast-recorders/podtrak-p4next/Join us LIVE every weekday morning at 7 am ET (US) on Clubhouse:https://www.clubhouse.com/house/empowered-podcasting-e6nlrk0wOr join us on Chatter:https://preview.chattersocial.io/group/98a69881-f328-4eae-bf3c-9b0bb741481dLive on YouTube:https://youtube.com/@marcronickJoin The Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group:⁠www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredpodcasting⁠Brought to you by iRonickMedia.comPlease note that some links may be affiliate links, which support the hosts of the PMC.
