Are your podcast clients getting bad audio and video from themselves or their guests? We share tips on how to address the issue, whether you're there to help them or not.
Episode Notes: https://podcasteditorsmastermind.com/episode/keys-to-helping-podcast-clients-look-and-sound-great
We're sharing some of the keys to helping your podcast clients sound and look great. It might feel uncomfortable initially, but it offers great benefits for your clients, their audience, and you.
We'll explore how to help them create a good recording space for success, whether it's an audio studio or a video set. Then we'll talk about the thing we ALL love to obsess over - the GEAR!
Of course, it doesn't stop there, because having a great studio with great gear won't get the results your clients are looking for if they don't use it right. Or if they let their guests set the standard for what should be considered "good."
Editors can assist by encouraging clients to speak up if guests aren't performing well or by stepping in for the host during live recordings.

Episode Notes: https://podcasteditorsmastermind.com/episode/starting-over-from-square-two-as-a-proven-podcast-editor
We're diving deep into the business side of podcast editing—the gritty, no-nonsense reality behind the glamorous facade. Carrie Caulfield is sharing advice on how to attract the perfect, slightly nerdy but passionate client who wants to learn about podcasting. She's no fairy godmother; think more hard work, less magic formula.
We remember what it was like starting between 2015-2017, share a few technical challenges we're psyched to have tackled, and chat about the struggles of staying on top of our games. Oh, and we can’t forget Daniel’s absence—he’s busy, but we miss him tons.
Stick around as we share some laughter, business insights, and heartfelt moments, all while being exceptionally thankful for you tuned-in masterminds. Ready to boost your podcasting prowess? Let’s get into it!

Episode Notes: https://podcasteditorsmastermind.com/episode/the-terminology-survival-guide-for-podcast-editors
You may not know this, but there's a TON of jargon in the podcasting space - especially for those of us who are involved in producing shows. Sometimes the words we use are clear and sometimes they may have multiple meanings.
Join us for this valuable episode where we discuss confusing and commonly misunderstood words.
But you know us - that's not enough. Almost nobody wins an award for vocabulary. However... if we can translate those words to what's important for our clients, we have a better chance of winning their business.
And that's what we want, isn't it?
To do our jobs well, get paid for it, and have happy clients.

But enough about the problem... because we all face it.

And because we love to keep you on your toes, we'll touch on the more techie side of things, debating the virtues of various AI tools and audio repair gizmos that promise to make our lives easier.

Your Yetis AreEver wonder what a podcast editor's life looks like? Patrick spills the beans on how he swapped lesson plans for audio timelines.
Episode Notes: https://podcasteditorsmastermind.com/episode/patrick-keller-made-the-leap-from-education-to-podcast-editing
Hey there! Thanks for stopping by!
We're here with a fresh story from the editing trenches. We're shining the spotlight on Patrick Keller, a retired music teacher who’s now orchestrating the world of podcast editing. Imagine going from teaching vocals and piano to slicing and dicing audio waves – that’s Patrick for you!
He started his new career by working on a lot of podcast episodes that still needed editing. He quickly learned a lot, trying out different things like organizing guests and doing live shows. But here's the catch - Patrick mostly taught himself how to edit, relying a lot on plugins that, to be honest, sometimes don't work well.
With tools like RXConnect and Reaper, he now faces the challenges of audio editing without the instant feedback provided by old plugins. And talking about feedback, you won't believe where some of his adjustments originate from - a car test!
Stick with us as we dive deeper with Patrick, exploring everything from audio mishaps to eerie paranormal podcasting. Whether you are an experienced editor or simply curious, there is some valuable advice for you here.
Alright, let’s get rolling!
