These things won’t help you be a better podcaster:
Thinking about podcasting
Talking to your friends about podcasting
Buying microphones and other podcasting equipment
Waiting for the "perfect" episode idea
Focusing on monetization strategies
The only way to get great at podcasting is to podcast. This means:
Plan an episode
Record an episode
Edit an episode
Yes, related skills can help you. It’s fine to talk about podcasting with your podcasting friends and learn from them. It’s fine to work on “non-podcasting” skills that are related to podcasting, such as public speaking.
But the only way to get great at podcasting is to spend time behind the mic.
