In this episode of Be a Better Podcaster, we dive into the art of editing and why embracing pauses and natural breaths can improve your podcast.

Learn how over-editing can make conversations sound robotic, how to find the perfect balance between too much and not enough editing, and how slight imperfections can enhance the listener's experience. Sure, AI editors are useful, but the nuance of the human touch matters to avoid a "too polished" result.

Key Tips:

• Embrace natural pauses and "ums"
• Avoid overusing AI editing tools

Mentioned in today's episode
