Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker. And on this episode, we’re talking about minimising interruptions to your recording session. These are the low-hanging fruits of making your podcast easier to edit, sound better, and generally cause you less frustration.

Then, it’s worth telling anyone you live with that you’re going to be recording for the next hour or so. An extreme measure might be a “do not disturb” sign on your door, but most people will only need a quick heads up. Finally, get that phone on silent and keep it away from you during the show. These are three quick and simple tips, but they really can make a world of difference. For a deeper dive on this topic, head over to http://thepodcasthost.com/noise
