You’ve got your podcast concept figured out, now what about your hosts? Will you go solo, or find some talented friends and/or colleagues to join you? Arguably the most important part of a podcast is having a great presenter. They’re responsible for putting your concept into action, guiding the listener through each episode and establishing a parasocial relationship with your audience. This episode we feature three podcasts with excellent host teams. Throughout the episode, we’ll break down what makes these hosts so effective, the strengths each sized team brings to their series,  and how to improve your own hosting skills.Produced by the RTA School of Media at X UniversityTo read the complete show notes click hereVisit our website to view the transcription or access hyperlinks in this description: https://bounced.buzzsprout.com/Timestamps1:04 - 5:46  What makes a great host?5:47  - 25:45  I’ll Have the Chicken Tenders 25:46 - 29:09  Host authenticity 29:10 - 39:21  Pressbox Chatter 39:22 - 41:43  Smart writing and understanding your market41:44 -  1:14:02  TV Toybox1:14:03 - 1:19:34  Giving context and having a balanced teamFeatured Projects:I’ll Have the Chicken Tenders - Megan Pierotti (RTA 996 W2021)Not yet graduated off the kids menu?
