The Lazy Girl's Guide to Podcasting: Podcasting Tips for How to Start and Run a Podcast

Ep 61: Defying the Weekly Episode Expectation


Listen Later

In this episode, I'll address the frequently asked question about whether podcasters need to produce weekly episodes. There is no hard and fast rule dictating a weekly release schedule and as a podcaster, you should find a rhythm that works for them. I parallel this with music artists who don't release albums every week, highlighting that consistent output does not necessarily mean weekly episodes.

I'll encourage you to focus on the age-old podcasting tip that is creating quality content and building a loyal audience, rather than feeling pressured to adhere to a specific release schedule. Ultimately, the emphasis is on the fact that podcasting is about finding what works best for you as an individual podcaster and your show.

Highlights:

  • Introduction to the question: Do you need to produce weekly podcast episodes?
  • Comparison with music artists who release albums less frequently than weekly.
  • Emphasizing that consistency does not necessarily mean a weekly release schedule.
  • The importance of finding a rhythm that works for the podcaster.
  • Highlighting the benefits of releasing episodes less frequently, such as allowing for more focused content and better preparation.
  • Encouraging podcasters to prioritize quality over quantity and to set realistic goals for themselves.
  • The importance of communication with listeners about release schedules and expectations.
