"Content dripping is how we use our podcast content to create other assets that not only hook people in and have them join our community, but actually spend a good amount of time with us, coming to know, like, and trust us so that it becomes a no brainer for them to open their wallet up to us when they're ready." - Deirdre Tshien
Deirdre Tshien is the CEO and co-founder of Capsho, a platform that helps podcasters create show notes, transcripts, and promotional copy quickly and efficiently. She created the platform out of a need to make her own podcast more successful and has since helped many podcasters maximize their content.

How many podcasts have you been a guest for?
As we discuss in today's episodes, being a guest on other podcasts is one of the highest returns on investments of time you can have. A lot goes into being a good guest, message, sound quality, and the right type of podcast.
It can be overwhelming all by itself, just podcasting add guesting on top of that, but as Mathew helps us see there is a process, it's a lot easier than we think once we get started.

When Roe vs Wade was overturned, did you wonder how you could help?
"Every podcaster has a voice" is the common language in the industry, but what happens when the voices combine to advocate for change? That is precisely what Arielle did with the recent Roe vs. Wade overturned issue. She posted a call to action on Twitter which exploded into people rallying around the effort and offering to play a consistent host read ad at the beginning of their episodes.
It's a simple but powerful way where we collectively can influence a topic. But, as Arielle shares, this is just the beginning, and future causes will be added as the idea expands.
Key Topics:
· What is the call to action you have asked podcasters to do (3:33)
· What were the expectations going into this idea (9:18)
· What pushback from the effort has there been since it started (13:05)
· How could others jump on board and help support other efforts (16:27)
· What does the future look like for Podcast activism (19:06)
· If a podcaster wants to support a future endeavor, where is the best place to connect (23:03)

What is the worst hot mic moment you have had in podcasting?
Today Mathew opens up about a trend in the industry with the quality of guests and the worst hot mic moment he has had during a live recording. Even though it’s just audio, an interview is still a conversation, and the quality matters.
