A week ago. Well, I' m sorry. Eight days ago I
brought you the decalogue for podcast guest and promised that I would also bring you
a decalogue for podcast hosts. And the day has come, let me tell
you my ten counsels to receive your guests in your podcast. We welcome you
across the microphone. On the other side of the microphone, a project by
Jorge Marín grandson in which you will find your daily serving of metapodcasting sting,
with news, events, tools or episodes of opinion and in just ten minutes.
Ten minutes, ten minutes. Greetings to all and all the lovers of
podcasting and, more specifically to IT to IT, that you have reached this
side of the microphone to receive a new sound pill in this daily metapodcast that
brings you every day news, tools, curiosities, tips, events. Anyway,
everything around me. I' m Jorge Marine and I bring you everything
that surrounds me in. As for podcasting, if my voice leaves me,
I will see if I am able to finish this episode and before getting fully
into the decalogue for podcast hosts. I want to thank the sponsor of this
installment, which is the hadowkend Red podcast the Gridge of videogame podcasts, a
program in a relaxed tone, although I would say rather in a rather acid
tone, among players of all life who have lived many generations of consoles,
multitude of titles and who, moreover, are part of the industry, especially
the part of the press industry of video games very attentive, to all the
bad jokes that run many, many many and also to the traps that make
for their section of the sirloin that ranking that they make at the end of
each episode. And having said this, you' re going to allow me
to open my post where I' ve prepared ten tips, ten tips that
you have to take into account when receiving new guests on your podcast. These
are ten tips that I myself impose, although I do not always fulfill them,
but I try that at least, because I am not going to say
the ten, but without nine out of ten, so that my guests,
because they feel comfortable and a recording comes out, because as comfortable as possible
and as best possible for you to hear it enjoy. First of all,
before inviting anyone to your podcast. I recommend you investigate your potential guest bar.
As I said in the decalogue for podcast guests, we do not have
to accept any invitation to any podcast that invites us. First you have to
investigate the podcast where I' ve been invited to know if it matches a
little bit with I' m not going to say my ideas, but well
my way of acting, or know if it fits. Let' s say
in my style, because it' s a bit the same here. If
you don' t investigate your prospective guest and directly email him or send him
a direct message to invite him to your podcast, without even knowing, then
if he' s a person who normally goes to podcasts to all kinds of
podcasts, or if he' s a person who asks you before you talk
to his press officer or I don' t know, then look a little
bit to see how willing that person is to participate in a podcast, if
inside his innermost environment, because it' s rather dry, but publicly he
' s a super- lovable and super- fun person, but then intimacy
isn' t so much to him. Or on the contrary, publicly he
' s a super dry, super straight person, but then the intimacy is
very jocuso. And today maybe on your podcast, because you' ve got
a leak there and once you' ve looked into it. The second tip
is to prepare yourself no longer for this invitation, but for all a type
email, a type email that more or less, because it describes what your
podcast is about, that includes several links, to your best episodes or to
those that you believe, that are the most prominent, that explains a little
bit, the objective of your podcast to whom it is addressed, in order
that you sell a little your podcast so that this person, according to this
invitation, knows a little what it is going to have. If you record
a hundred, if you have a hundred published chapters, then they tell them
look we have already recorded for a hundred chapters or for three years and have
passed guests of the size of ta ta ta ta ta, ta tar.
We did a live chapter in I don' t know where. And besides,
we do this and we air this way and we emit that way.
And if you want to talk about hearing, well, listen to what you
see at last, but try to have an email prepared so that the person
receiving this invitation doesn' t see that typical hey, you come to my
podcast before you give that email to that form. Let' s say you
' ve prepared try to give the possibility of different dates and it' s
not the guest who tells you the date of recording. Why, because straight
away, if you give him a dossier of your own podcast, you'
re presenting it to him and you give him a choice between two, three,
five dates, you' re going to have it a lot easier when
he accepts that if you directly tell him he hears when it comes to you
well, you tell me and I get along. Well, maybe that person
finds there the perfect excuse for good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, one,
when I' ve got a little bit of time I' ll answer
you and yeah, we' ll schedule. Yeah, yeah, man or.
Thank you very much for the invitation. If I have you here,
I' ll coordinate, because now I' m so messed up. I
' ll get back to you. Not if you give her the dates directly
look at next week, Monday or Friday or Saturday or when you schedule,
but give her three specific days so she has to choose. If you'
re already there, let' s say opening the door for them to come
in and put it on a lot, but it' s much easier to
have another council, the fourth council, prepare a presentation and an atmosphere suitable
for this guest. I mean if you' re going to invite a senior
political officer, he' ll logically have a protocol department that' s going
to require you to make presentations in a certain way. Or don' t
look at the Pedro Sánchez case on the La Pija and Kinki podcast, but
I' m sure his protocol communications department prepared him well for that episode,
well, nothing. We have to go to the highest levels of government.
Not simply, because adapt a little to the environment where your guest moves,
present it properly or directly ask for a presentation so that you don' t
have any relevant data left. It also provides a comfortable and suitable environment that
is more or less appropriate to your guest if you are a person. I
mean, if you' re going to invite a doctor in medicine, maybe
a very jococious environment, because it' s not the most suitable. Or
on the contrary, if you' re going to bring a person from the
music arena who is sixteen years old, then if you' re going to
put him in a super serious podcast, it' s not the most convenient
thing. In my opinion. Fifth tip, technical aspects, give easy explanations
and at the foot so that your guest knows how to connect to the recording
platform as easily as possible and in such a way that he has no problem
and that, if he has, you have anticipated and give him the solution.
See platforms like Tzencaster, Tzoom, Skype Google. Piss all these platforms.
If you have worked with them, you will know that in certain operating
systems they work better. On other mobile phones they may not work if you
enter without connecting the microphone. It doesn' t take you well to go
ahead with these possible technical flaws and advise the person to record in a quiet
environment, to remember to use headphones that connect your microphone or if you are
going to record in a face- to- face way, because I don
' t know that you keep in mind that the microphone that you use needs
to stick a lot or that if you are comfortable with the volume that you
have put the headphones in so suits the technical aspect of your podcast. Also
the guest should be put let' s say between cushions that is as comfortable
comfortable comfortable bar as possible. And another advice is to seek complicity with this
guest by winking at his person or his profession, or to make his journey
so that he sees that you know him, that you' ve investigated him,
that you know, that you know who you' re talking to.
He' s sure if you' ve followed my advice as a podcast guest,
I' ve also heard some of the episodes from your show. But
here it is you who have to host him and get to know him a
little bit more. If you know she' s recently taken part in an
interview with another podcast, you tell her you' ve heard her, that
you really liked the question. Or if you heard I don' t know
an interview or you read an interview ten years ago about the memories, so
I know you' ve gotten a little up to date. Anyway, you
have to look for that complicity. Not because if you break that barrier,
the guest will feel much more comfortable, it will probably open up much more
and the environment will be much more relaxed and relaxed, even if it is
a very serious or very dry person, as I said if you are a
doctor in biomedicine. Well, maybe with this one, with this series of
winks, you' ll make your deal more cordial and much more enjoyable.
And that same thing is going to be broadcast on your podcast. On the
other hand, once we finish the recording, it doesn' t need to
be instant, it needs to be as you finish, although it' s
also okay to ask him how you felt, comfortable you liked something there,
something you want us to withdraw. I don' t know how to give
me feedback, but maybe the next day or the next two days, write
him a run. Hey, I' m editing the episode. How did
you like it were comfortable such I don' t know how comfortable you liked
the experience you have participated in some similar podcast. I don' t know
that the conversation doesn' t end the moment you vote for the stop on
the recording, but that it keeps flowing, that you don' t lose
that complicity. And now you' ll see what I mean by this thing
about not cutting communication. The next advice I want to give in this decalogue
is to send you the previous version of the recording that has already been edited
before making the public why, because man it is always convenient that you listen
to it in case there is any data that, for whatever reason, they
have or do not like the way the episode has turned out or, perhaps,
wants to correct something or add something. Or I hear that I know
that maybe he also did it that he doesn' t mind repeating and precisely
sending him this previous version, because he feels so comfortable or comfortable that he
will schedule you another recording in a month or six months or next season.
Hey keep talking to your guest that the recording I already say, don'
t stop the moment I give this to him once you' re going to
publish it. It is advisable to thank the guest for participating, both in
the podcast itself and privately in the post office and publicly, because man is
never there. In addition, it will be grateful that you better thank her
for her participation and, if above, you do it publicly, because little
by little you prepare the ground for when finally the episode published. And of
the episode published is the following advice, which is that you have to label
the guests, you have to mention the guests, but there are not the
typical podcasts that do nothing but label and label the guests because they are very
famous or because they come from the scope whatever it is to try to scratch
audience from that guest. To me personally it is a practice that I do
not like anything and I, when I have a guest in the podcast,
maybe I put that same day three or four messages, but only the label
on one of them so that he knows that he hears that he has already
come out in his episode that if he wants, he can share it,
but that neither I do well. I mean if a person has invited your
pose and for a day, or a week or a month you' re
mentioning it daily, because in the end what you' re going to get
is the opposite effect. If you already hear you want to take advantage of
the followers that this person has, my recommendation is that you ask him kindly.
Hey, you mind sharing the episode with you. For me I already
say it is a much more sensible practice and much nicer, much more cordial
to ask him directly, to him or her that to toxigate him to mentions
and make a spam machine gun to get him to make you some retweet to
share it or surely if you do it in a much more kind way,
he ends up sharing it with his own accounts And that, in the end,
has much more value than if he retweets your account or shares your Instagram
post or your Good post. Anyway, you know a little bit about what
I mean and these are my ten tips from this decalogue for podcast hosts I
' m waiting for your comments in Evox' s comment box or on Telegram
' s channel and to see what advice you think I' ve missed or
on the contrary, the ones I' ve left over, I' ve
put ten, because I think it' s an appropriate number. And even
if you leave one of them, as the intro commented, because with turning
nine of them, surely you will get a round or round episode and your
guests feel very but very comfortable, very usi, p and now I say
goodbye and as every day I return to that place where you are right now
on the other side of the microphone,
