Have you ever found yourself in a position where you question whether you should publish an episode of your podcast because it doesn't meet your standards?
If you haven't yet, chances are it's something you'll encounter at some point in your podcasting plight.
In Part 5 of my "5 Things Your Podcast Doesn't Need" series, I'm diving deep into one of the most critical items you need to consider with your production: compromising your standards at the expense of your audience.
In podcasting, the unofficial golden rule is you always consider the listener's experience above all else. If you feature a guest who goes into business for themselves and does nothing but sell - to the point your listener may wonder if this content is for them - you may want to consider other options instead of exposing your listeners to something that will sour them on your show.
You want to ensure you bring value to your listeners at all times. And if that means 86'ing an episode because it doesn't meet your standards, so be it.
