This week, we are diving back into part 2 of my interview with Elaine Appleton Grant. Last week, we discussed a lot of the ins and outs of starting and doing a podcast. This week we dive into a bit deeper how COVID is affecting the business of podcasting and how to tap into your audience when figuring out your own podcast.

In this second part, we discuss:

• How COVID has affected podcasting and what is coming out of this
• The podcasts she’s seen out of COVID and what effects they’re having on society
• Different podcast formats and figuring out what’s right for you / your podcast
• The importance of being tuned into your audience to know what they want to listen to
• Some of the things that deteriorate the quality of your podcast
• How to improve the quality of your own voice 
• How larger companies are using podcasts to their advantage
• What Elaine is currently working on
