The interview podcast format

Interview shows let you borrow the expertise — and audience — of others. The skill takes practice, so don't approach the A-listers first.

The big benefit: you get to talk to people you've always looked up to. And their audiences may follow you home. Done right, interviews grow podcasts fast.

The work: constantly finding and approaching guests, scheduling, relying on them to show up, and on the tech to behave. Don't pitch your dream guest first — practice on people in the next ring out.
