About this episode
How do you create clear and open communication with your podcast guest? Every podcast—and every episode, for that matter—has a lot of moving parts. As podcast hosts, we know that in order to stay organized, we need systems in place. But those systems should extend to more than your recording and editing tools, and how you publish your episode. You need systems in place for your guest interactions, too. An unfortunate experience shared by a fellow podcast host prompts Mary to explore podcast etiquette and guest/host interactions. She outlines how to approach this important relationship before, during, and after the interview to make sure you're setting the clearest possible expectations. Consider how you could fine-tune your own podcast guest etiquette: Ace the early interaction that will set you up for that "easy yes" Keep your guest in the know as the interview begins Make sure you're both set up for success once the episode airs Red flags to watch out for when you're the guest!
