The Podcast Bible

Join host John Quick for the final episode of The Podcast Bible, a special five part series that takes you from starting your first podcast to building a content machine. In the finale, From Podcast to #1 Bestseller, you’ll learn how to turn a season of interviews into a book with your name on the cover.

Start with the conversations you’ve already recorded. John walks you through choosing the stories that belong together, finding the moment that opens each chapter, and pulling out the lessons readers can use. You’ll hear how to use Claude to help draft from your transcripts while keeping the facts and quotes grounded in what your guests actually said.

Then it’s time to publish. Learn how to release your book through Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing without paying upfront for a print run, plan a free Kindle promotion, and get your guests ready to share it on launch day. You’ll leave with a plan to go from a folder full of interviews to a published book and give it a shot at #1 in its Amazon category.

By the end, you’ll have a working title, a one-sentence promise for your show, and a date to hit record.
