Speaker 1 (00:00):
When creating arrow dot net, it was my goal to
tap into your life and style, not say this is
the way that it is followed by my rules. I mean,
I know your life is filled with sports, spiritual journeys
as well as your love for spine tingling mysteries from
amazing new authors. Aro dot net, aarre dot net. Everything
(00:22):
has its own channel, it's for you to explore. My
name is Arrow, host of the weekly podcast Podcrashing, four
hundred and twenty six episodes that connect listeners to podcasts
specialists around the world. Now, my goal has always been
to inform our community with subjects that deal with everything
and beyond. Podcast hosts are usually open and always filled
(00:45):
with a spirit that spreads their skills as journalists, medical specialists,
true crime soldiers, gamblers, motivators, spiritualists, actors and their famous children.
I mean literally, there's a podcast for every subject. The
podcast pod Crashing has been with me since March of
twenty nineteen. The original goal was to put focus on
(01:05):
helping up and coming podcasters to have the right information
about hosting as well as surviving. I'm not selling anything.
The idea went fifty four episodes before adopting a new plan.
Why not talk directly with the podcasters those that are
limited every single day. The purpose of Podcrashing one on
(01:26):
one is to help you build your own platform, to
promote it and maybe make some cash. This is Podcrashing
one on one episode number four twenty six. If you
aren't a writer, is podcasting for you? I mean, how
important is script preparation plus the infamous written out interviews
(01:48):
before the questions? I love the short answer? Now, you
don't have to be a writer or be anything close
to it. Research shows most podcasts hosts don't invest honing
their skills as a writer. In fact, the only real
skills and qualities are more about being authentic and present
with your own gifts to gap. So what matters most? Okay,
(02:12):
we're going to do a list here. Number one curiosity
If you're truly connected to covering the story on the
podcast and those connected to it, visibility is everything. Podcast
listeners accept you as you being you, but that's the
picture you're painting for them. Just be curious. Number two consistency.
(02:35):
I mean, I know podcasters who set free a podcast
at least once a week, and they are doing amazing
with their analytic numbers and followers. I happen to do
it seven days a week. Yeah, I do, because I'm
old school radio and that's what we did in radio.
We showed up every day. And I openly admit that
being a daily writer and published author does get in
(02:57):
the way of my podcasting. You've been trained to stick
to the rules. I mean, who, what, where, why, when?
And how has always got to be answered either way
you look at it. Your play on that stage has
got to stay connected to your followers with brand new content. Hey,
coming up next as this podcasters, if writing isn't your thing,
(03:22):
how can you work onlifting your game? Hey, welcome back
to the Daily Mess as a podcaster. If writing isn't
your thing, how can you work in lifting your game?
Having a point of view is very important, and I
laugh at things like this because multiple digital top dogs
are relying on their grammar to be unpolished just to
(03:46):
have something to say. Number four have an endless willingness
to be the learner the student. New study show that
checking in with you actually brings you closer to your
relationsationship with those that are checking out the podcast. So
why don't you have to be a writer? Then podcasts
(04:07):
are spoken people want your voice, not a handwritten essay.
No cross t's and dotted i's. You'll probably have run
on sentences and question marks in areas that should have
been more of a statement. Writing does help when it's
required coming up with the body of the story, the beginning,
the middle, and of course the end and title. Writing
(04:28):
short descriptions on your digital platform upload is very important
because you've got to organize your ideas and bring them
to life in a true crime story or investigation. Here's
one thing to remember though, if you choose not to
write but rather lean on AI technology. There are a
(04:49):
lot of digital platforms right now that want to know
about your AI use. If you didn't write it, you
kind of have to tell them I didn't write it.
I gave it to AI to put together. They want
to know this stuff because they're covering their own butts.
I'm Marrow and that's pod crashing one on one
