Seems like everyone’s starting their own podcast these days. So how do YOU stand out in a sea of podcasts?

Hint: It’s NOT about the microphone.

There is NO one-size-fits-all tutorial that is sufficient. So let me help.

I'm Andrea Klunder, your podcast boss, and I want to help you develop and communicate YOUR STORY — the passion behind the podcast, the thing that makes your show unique and valuable to your listeners, and the secret ingredients that will help you feel successful and make your show the envy of everyone else.

054: Just put a boom arm in the box already!

Nov 29, 2019

Episode 054. “They sold you this microphone saying that it had 'everything you needed inside the box to get started,' and they gave you that crappy little microphone stand.” ~Your Podcast Boss

Black Friday, Cyber Monday…  you are probably super busy tooling around the internet looking for the best deals on podcasting gear… I know you have heard me say so many times in the past that it's not about the microphone -- the success of your show, the quality of your show is so not about the microphone. And I'm going to kind of take that back a little bit. 

Gear is important. 

You are doing something that requires gear, that requires equipment, that requires a tool to get your message your thought leadership, your ideas, your insights, your wisdom, your incredibly amazing conversations with other people out into the earbuds of listeners everywhere.

I have used a lot of different audio gear of different levels and different qualities over the years of podcasting. I have helped many, many podcasters to get their own shows started and to improve the quality of their shows. I have listened to so many podcasts. I listen to podcasts like it's my job. Well, it kind of IS my job. What a cool job!

And I have recorded in so many different recording environments, different spaces with different people and different speakers. And here is one place where I am going to draw the line.

“Well, if you are too far away from your microphone, you ARE the ambient noise.” ~Your Podcast Boss
