Ep 004 - Are Your Podcast Interviews Boring? (Hacks From a Former Journalist)

Struggling to grow your video-podcast? In this episode of Grow Your Podcast, Josh Lewis sits down with journalist-turned-host Peter Kersting to break down the exact interview techniques that turn casual viewers into loyal fans. You’ll learn how a single skill can help you with networking, brand authority and audience retention.

What you’ll discover

• Why “interested is interesting” (and how to show it on-camera)
• Bullet-proof prep that avoids sounding scripted yet keeps the convo on track
• Open-ended vs. leading questions—and the one line that rescues any dead-air moment
• A live case study from MLB spring training that changed Peter’s career (and will change your interviews)
• On-air active-listening tricks that editors (and guests) love
• Biggest mistakes new podcasters make—and exactly how to fix them before you hit record
