What is a bad podcast?
Show notes
There are over 4.5 million podcasts in the world. Statistically, some of them have to be bad.
What makes a bad podcast? We asked five experienced podcasters, producers and editors to find out.
In this episode of Too Long Didn't Listen, five podcast creators share the biggest podcast mistakes they see time and time again. Some believe poor audio quality is enough to lose listeners instantly. Others argue that a lack of planning, structure and clear purpose is what really makes a podcast fail.
Not everyone agrees, though. One guest argues there isn't really such a thing as a bad podcast if you've found your audience. Another believes every successful podcast starts with knowing exactly who it's for. Whether you're starting your first podcast or looking to improve an existing show, these podcasting tips will help you avoid the most common mistakes.
