Summary: Some people think there's only one way to do a podcast...open the microphones and talk until you run out of things to say. And while there are some very successful shows that subscribe to that formula it's not the only way to do a show. Chatting non-stop might seem like the easiest option when you're new to podcasting. But just because you're a beginner doesn't mean you can't think more creatively about how to deliver your content. Breaking your show up into podcast segments can be a great way to keep it interesting and make hosting much easier. Check out the full episode show notes: https://rachelcorbett.com.au/podcast-segments/ About me... My name is Rachel Corbett and I've worked professionally for almost two decades in radio and podcasting. I've hosted and produced shows for some of the biggest radio networks in Australia, created three of my own independent podcasts and I was Head of Podcasts for Mamamia, the largest women's podcast network in the world. At Mamamia, I grew the podcast network from 15 to over 35 shows, the team from two to nine producers and the audience to over 1 million unique listeners a month and over 90 million downloads which is more than quadruple where it was when I started. I've also hosted over ten podcasts with more than 2 million downloads including Lady Startup, Eligible, Before The Bump and You've Gotta Start Somewhere. You can find all my podcasts at rachelcorbett.com.au/podcasts. I've taught radio and podcasting at the Australia Film Television and Radio School and have my own online podcasting course, PodSchool, so if you're looking for someone who knows what they're talking about when it comes to pods, you've come to the right place.
