Now more than ever, it can seem like everyone and their brother has a podcast, but it's also fair to say that not all podcasts are created equal.

 

If you're thinking of launching a podcast yourself, this episode is all about how to get above that "average," and who better to teach us that than voiceover expert and audio engineer Gary Maholm.

 

Having edited more than 12,000 podcast episodes – and yes, you read that right – over the course of his career, Gary knows firsthand what makes for a killer podcast.

 

He also knows the production elements that torpedo a podcast, even if the content itself is valuable, and make listeners less likely to stick around.

 

Here, he shares all of these tips and tricks, so you can hit the ground running with your own podcast, just like he helped us kick ass with Technically Speaking!
