Your podcast cover art isn’t decoration, it’s the billboard for your show. In today’s episode of As It Relates to Podcasting, I’m breaking down exactly how to create podcast artwork that stops the scroll, builds trust, and attracts listeners.

You’ll learn:

✅ Why your face + name beat a generic logo for building authority

✅ When to avoid using your face (and what to do instead)

✅ The biggest cover art mistakes podcasters make (tiny fonts, busy backgrounds, inconsistent branding)

✅ How to test your podcast artwork against competitors so it stands out

✅ The difference between scroll-stopping designs vs. instantly forgettable ones

If you’re launching or rebranding your podcast, this episode will help you avoid costly mistakes and design cover art that works on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.
