Publishing a Podcast Episode of Elsie's Yoga Kula: My Process
The Process:
- Googled subject
- Studied personal site/business site,
- Studied FB pics and vids.
- Searched for any other social media profiles.
- Researched prior interviews.
- Emailed subject list of possible questions, plus a request for feedback, making sure to honor his boundaries, plus to give him the ability to tell me specific things that he’d like to speak about. (I don’t do this with all my interviewees, I feel it out, depending on what is the intention of the interview)
- Used my Zoom H2 Recorder to record my audio.
- Had James call into my conference call line, and recorded our conversation there.
- I’ve been currently using MacJournal to write my blog posts/shownotes/scripts. It works lovely for me, as I have everything organized in one place.
- I also use Evernote for the feedback that I use in the show. Whenever I get an email, FB message, find an article I put it in Evernote tag it (example eyk #4) and when I’m writing my script, I just search for my tag, and voila!
- Using my H2 Zoom Recorder.
- In the bathroom in the middle of the night (quietest place and quietest time)
- Macbook on my lap with MacJournal on Full Screen (makes for a lovely ‘TelePrompTer’)
- Imported all audio from the H2, plus downloaded MP3 from the conferencing site.
- Used Garageband to edit all audio, exported to iTunes.
- I downloaded the audio to my iPod and listened to it while I washed dishes and fed my baby, to make sure the quality and levels were ok
- Re-encoded the audio as I wanted better quality
- Edited id3 tags and added artwork
- Uploaded audio file to Libsyn
- Used Smultron to edit my final shownotes
- Finalized shownotes on Wordpress, plus added pictures and a gazillion links
- Published podcast episode in Libsyn
- Pinged iTunes
- Published corresponding blog post for episode
