No, you don't have to release an episode of your business’ podcast each and every week. Or every two weeks. Or even every month.The myth of “publish or die!” is an ad populum fallacy. Most podcasts are made by hobbyists. Most of those hobbyists are “playing at radio” with their podcast. Or they're inspired by traditional media -- television, newspaper, magazines - that issues new content on a consistent (often weekly) basis.

Or maybe your business is putting on your own event? And even if you aren’t planning on attending, perhaps there's an event that is incredibly popular within your industry, attended by potential customers, existing clients, and even your competitorsIf that's the case, you can build a series of podcast episodes that are catered to that pending event. You can produce a series of podcast episodes that culminate either on the day of that event or perhaps just before that event … even a great recap of the event once it’s over. It’s that single event that becomes the focus of your podcast. Doing this can cement your business or brand identity as a (if not the) thought-leader for the event and, by way of association, a thought-leader for the topic of
