Should you be doing an audio-only podcast or adding video into the mix? Is YouTube even considered a podcast platform? In this episode of Profitcast, The Real Brian breaks down the difference between audio and video podcasting and helps you determine what’s best for your business content strategy.

You’ll learn the technical definitions, practical applications, and why the "rules" don’t matter nearly as much as your marketing goals do. This short commentary is going to help you clarify what will move the needle most for your brand.

Topics explored in this episode:

(01:14) Audio vs. video: what does your business need?

(01:52) Why voice creates trust, and video increases reach

(03:04) Defining a “real” podcast (and why it doesn’t really matter)

(04:23) What really matters in 2025 content strategy

(05:00) Why audio + video is the best option for most businesses
