In Part 1 of this 5-part series, I shared some scary numbers regarding the attention span of adults in 2024 and why this is important for podcast creators to consider when laying out their content.

I'm building upon those points in Part 2 today as I share another item your podcast episodes don't need and, ultimately, diminishes your listener's experience if you do it too much.

This particular item can:

- Put more work on your plate
- Take more time than it's worth
- Make things awkward for your guest
- Accomplish more if the guest does it themselves
