Creative Constipation: Overcoming Podcasting Roadblocks part 1
We kicked things off with some light-hearted banter about the technical difficulties that sometimes plague podcasting, like turning on the mixer and dealing with camera issues. We also touched on the importance of having a good vibe in the studio and the challenges of upgrading equipment.
Bret and I then delved into a more serious discussion about the creative struggles we face as podcasters. Joe opened up about feeling creatively constipated and the difficulty of maintaining a fresh and engaging podcast. We talked about the seasonal decline in podcast listenership, particularly in the hunting community, and speculated on why that might be.
We also explored the challenges of scheduling guests and the frustration that comes with last-minute cancellations. Joe shared his thoughts on the importance of being reliable and how it affects the quality and consistency of podcast episodes.
Bret helps Joe with his creative block, I shared some of my own strategies for staying creative, such as writing down every idea, no matter how silly it might seem. We discussed the importance of having an output for creative ideas and not being afraid to try new things, even if they might seem cringy at first.
Towards the end, we brainstormed some potential changes Joe could make to his podcast, like a brand refresh or adding new elements to keep things exciting. We also touched on the idea of bringing more people onto the podcast team to share the workload and bring in fresh perspectives.
Overall, it was a candid and insightful conversation about the highs and lows of podcasting, the importance of staying creative, and the challenges of balancing passion projects with everyday life.
