In this episode of Build a Big Podcast, David Hooper emphasizes the importance of getting guest names right and maintaining respect and accuracy for a successful podcast interview.

Bullet Points:

• Respectful Podcasting Practices - The importance of being respectful to your podcast guests, ensuring you represent them accurately without manipulative edits
• Audience Priority - Ensuring that your audience comes first by not spreading propaganda, misinformation, or disinformation on your podcast
• Name Pronunciation Verification - The significance of verifying the pronunciation of your guest's name to avoid mistakes and show respect
• Cultural Sensitivity - Understanding that different cultures may feel uncomfortable correcting the host, hence the need for the host to create a welcoming environment for corrections
• Handling Corrections - Encouraging guests to correct any mistakes (names, dates, etc.) during the podcast to avoid extensive editing later
• Guest Experience - The impact of repeated corrections on the flow of an interview and strategies for handling such situations
• Personal Anecdotes - Personal stories and humorous instances related to name pronunciation errors and misunderstandings
