77 - Bonus Episode: Top 10 things to think about when starting an education podcast

We recorded this extra podcast in response to several people messaging us asking about starting a podcast. The points we cover are:

1. Do you really want to do a podcast?
2. What's your goal?
3. Don't overthink it, just get going -you need to get to 50 episodes before you have really started
4. Pick what you are interested in, don't care about attracting listeners
5. Make a realistic schedule
6. Get guests - not sustainable otherwise
7. Technical stuff - Podbean, StreamYard, limited editing. Don't worry about hardware initially
8. Think about live streams - YouTube and LinkedIn
9. Get a co-host
10. Let the conversation flow and tell the guests to go slow telling their story. There is no reason your show needs to be exactly 30 minutes long.
