The WORST Podcast Pitches I Ever Received As A Podcast Host


Listen Later

Want to know the worst pitches I get as a top 1% podcast host of people wanting to come onto my show? I am reading ACTUAL, REAL pitches I get everyday to help you avoid the common mistakes when pitching podcasts! If you want to get onto more podcasts, join our PR program for a proven, winning PR system that positions you as the industry authority so you can get more sales, SEO, and credibility!



Here’s What We Cover In the Episode and More:

  • Reads actual poorly written podcast pitches received
  • Common mistakes found in these pitches 
  • The importance of personal relevance and not delegating pitches to agencies 
  • Need for specificity and relevance in pitches 
  • How to focus pitches on the podcast’s audience, not just self-promotion 
  • Suggestions on how to improve podcast pitching strategies



The worst podcast pitches aren’t just bad—they’re like a one-sided date where all you do is brag, ignore the other person’s interests, and then wonder why you got ghosted. If you can’t take five minutes to personalize your pitch, why should I spend 50 interviewing you? Remember, if your pitch looks like a copy-paste, it’ll land in the recycle bin faster than a bad subject line. Specificity wins hearts (and bookings), while generic fluff gets you a one-way ticket to “delete.” Be relevant, be real or be forgotten!
