As a podcast host, do you remember every interview you've ever done? When I got to that point, I realized I was either getting old (and forgetful) or I've done a ton of interviews and it would be impossible to remember all of them.   Same for the podcasts where I've been a guest...   I was updating my info on Podchaser a couple of months ago when I saw I was listed as a guest on a "gay" podcast. I thought it was a mistake, since I don't meet the qualifications.   It wasn't. And this is that story. I also talk about what you must know (and do) before you do another media interview or have somebody on your podcast, because this sitation comes up in a few different ways for both podcast guests and hosts and something similar can happen to you.   Topics:

• The "unwritten contracts" of podcast appearances
• The "three agreements" of podcast guesting
• What happens when you have the wrong guest on your podcast
• Straight model, gay centerfold
• The only time I've removed a podcast episode after publishing it (and why)
• Ryan Seacrest's blind date
