Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker.

And on this episode, we’re talking about coming up with episode ideas.

As is often the case in podcasting, this depends a lot on your topic. But there are some common themes we see with podcasters coming up with episode ideas.

Maybe a recent personal experience or funny anecdote can tie in to your subject or topic. Maybe there’s a lesson to be learned from a book you’ve just read, or a movie you’ve just watched. Or maybe there’s something in the news right now that your audience would be interested to hear your take on.

It’s a good idea to keep a document of all the evergreen episode ideas you think of, too. That way, you know you’ve always got something to fall back on if you go through a challenging creative period in the future.
