Ways To Make Your Podcast More Memorable

When people complete your latest podcast episode, what do you want them to do? Reflect on your brilliance? Bask in a sense of satisfaction? Or would simply remembering what you said 5 minutes later be enough? Making your podcast memorable isn't easy. There isn't an easy-to-fill-out template or checklist to get you there.  Even if you do manage the herculean feat of making a truly memorable episode, your memorable episode is in direct competition with dozens of other pieces of content your listeners are exposed to that very same day. And we quite literally cannot keep everything in our active memory.  So what's the trick to making memorable podcasts? Here are a few practical tips that I use that you too can use  1. Have a schtick. I know it sounds gimmicky. But if people are memorizing repeatable parts of your show, there's a good chance they'll remember other parts of your episodes too. 2. Be about one thing. If your format allows it, try to keep your episode to just one topic. Even if you have an interview show, you can ask your guest about just one thing. (And you can always invite them back to talk about more things!) 3. Reinforce and repeat. Don't assume the nuggets you or your guests drop will be picked up. Call them out. Make a big deal out of them. And then end with a recap of the key point for good measure. 4. Less is more. What you found fascinating in creator-mode may seem tedious and even boring to those listening in enjoying-content-mode. Try to take an objective listen before you make your final edits. 5. Don't flood your audience. By that I mean don't give them more to think about than they can handle.
