Ash and Kane talk all about guest interviews in this episode, sharing their top tips and tricks for getting the most out of your guests. They discuss using high-quality software like Riverside.fm and the importance of making your guests feel at ease. This episode is a must-listen for any podcaster looking to improve their interviewing skills and create engaging content.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Using high-quality software like Riverside.fm can help you impress your guests and create better content for social media.
• Making your guests feel comfortable is key to getting the best out of them. Be accommodating, especially if they're new to podcasting.
• Avoid using release forms or contracts, as they can put off potential guests. Instead, communicate clearly about what topics are off-limits.
• During virtual interviews, try to make eye contact by looking at the lens and positioning the guest's video box near the camera.
• Practice active listening and use non-verbal responses to encourage your guest to share more. Avoid interrupting with audible responses.
• Research trending topics and ask questions that prompt your guest to discuss them or name-drop relevant people.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you want to impress your guest, but most importantly you want to get the most out of them, creating good content with name drops and quotes... from your guests that you can clip up and post to social media."

"If someone's completely new to it, there's a good chance they're going to be stumbling and be like, 'Oh, I messed that up,' instead of just getting on with it."

"If you want a good named guest and you want to get the most out of them, i.e., they're doing the marketing and they're sharing, if you create them content where they look or sound good or say something funny or insightful, they're much more likely to share it."
