2026/09/29

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! Alban and Jordan are back from Podcast Movement in New York, and they came home with a lot to talk about. Podcasting has changed dramatically since Buzzsprout attended the first Podcast Movement in 2014. This year’s conference made that growth especially clear with bigger businesses and new conversations about where the industry is headed. But some of their favorite moments were still the familiar ones: meeting other podcasters, hearing g...

2026/09/22

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! Most of the time, we’re trying to get our podcast in front of as many people as possible. But there are times when reaching a smaller, specific group makes more sense. Maybe you want to give subscribers bonus episodes, create exclusive content for your biggest fans, or add a podcast to a course or coaching program. That’s where a private podcast can be really useful! In this episode of Podcasting Q&A, Cara walks through three ways t...

From Podcast to Stage

2026/09/15

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! A few months ago, Jordan needed to pitch a talk for Podcast Movement. There was just one problem: the deadline was coming up fast, and she was having trouble narrowing down what she wanted to talk about. So she went back to her podcast, Buzzcast. Jordan uploaded years of transcripts to ChatGPT and asked it to find the topics she kept coming back to. And it came back with a lot to work with! One idea jumped out from an old episode about ge...

Buzzsprout Weekly ·

2026/09/08

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! We spend a lot of time thinking about how to grow our podcasts. But after a year of hosting Podcasting Q&A, Cara realized her podcast had been growing something else: her confidence. Before taking over the show, Cara was used to being given a task and completing it. Now, she was responsible for writing, recording, editing, publishing, and figuring out what the show should become. A year later, she noticed that confidence following her...

Buzzsprout Creator Spotlight: Yasha

Buzzsprout Weekly ·

2026/09/01

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! Jeremy Gendelman had the recordings for Yasha sitting in a drawer for almost ten years. He'd recorded his grandfather telling the story of fleeing across the Soviet Union during the Nazi invasion of World War II. At the time, Jeremy was mostly a curious grandson with an old camcorder. He had no idea what he'd captured! Years later, after his grandfather passed away, Jeremy listened again. This time, he heard a podcast. "I have his...

Keep Podcasting Weird

Buzzsprout Weekly ·

2026/08/25

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! Lately, I’ve noticed how much content is starting to sound the same. It's technically good, but so much of what we consume is optimized and often AI-assisted to the point where you can almost tell what the next sentence will be. And it got me wondering: Is the same thing happening to podcasts? On this week's episode of Buzzcast, the team talks about “podcast blanding” and the pressure to look at what's working for others and slowly make y...

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey Podcasters! Most podcasts have a host, producer, researcher, writer, and editor. On Tiger Talk, those jobs belong to fourth and fifth graders!

2026/08/11

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey Podcasters! If you’ve ever tried embedding an episode in WordPress, you know it can take more clicks than it should. A small update to your site can turn into a lot of bouncing between menus just to get one episode in the right place. So we gave the Buzzsprout WordPress plugin a much-needed refresh. Now you can add an episode with a slash command, choose the player size, and embed your latest episode, a specific episode, or a playlist right inside the edito...

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! If you're already recording video, you know the work doesn't end when the recording does. Next comes uploading the same episode file to multiple platforms just to get it everywhere you want it. But now, you can publish video episodes to Spotify and YouTube directly from your Buzzsprout account. Upload one video to Buzzsprout, and we’ll publish it to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube while continuing to share your audio everywhere else. Inste...

Better Podcast Gear

Buzzsprout Weekly ·

2026/07/28

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! Podcast equipment has gotten a lot better over the last few years. Unfortunately, it's also gotten a lot more confusing. There are hundreds of microphones, dozens of audio interfaces, and no shortage of YouTube videos telling you the "best" setup. It's easy to spend weeks researching gear instead of recording your next episode. That's why we put together Podcast Equipment: What I Learned from 500 Episodes. Instead of reviewing every microphon...

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! It's easy to assume your podcast grows because you publish consistently, improve your audio, or spend more time promoting each episode. But what if your biggest growth opportunities were decided long before someone ever pressed play? This week on Buzzcast, Jordan is joined by podcast strategist Courtney Elmer to talk about the small decisions that shape how new listeners discover your show.

Is Video Podcasting Hard

Buzzsprout Weekly ·

2026/07/14

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! About a month ago, the Buzzcast team turned the show into a video podcast. Rather than speculate about whether video is worth it, they decided to try it themselves and see what actually happened. Some parts have been exactly what they expected. Others... not so much! In this episode of Buzzcast they discussed what they learned after the first month, including the real numbers, what surprised them most, and one recording mistake that still hurts...

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey Podcasters! One of my favorite things about podcasting is that your show almost never grows the way you expect it to! Kristin and Steve started their podcast, Cycling Together with Kristin & Steve, thinking it would help people discover their bike shop. Instead, it opened up an otherwise intimidating hobby to a lot of new riders! Every two weeks, a new episode sparks conversations at local rides and keeps them connected with customers between vi...

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey Podcasters! For years, Rich and Andrew kept hearing the same thing from their social media followers: "You should start a podcast." As flight attendants, they'd built a large audience by creating polished, entertaining videos online. So if they were going to launch a podcast, they knew listeners would expect that same experience. They wanted the podcast to feel like a step forward, so when they finally launched Two Guys on a Plane, video was part of...

Buzzsprout Creator Spotlight: Got Any Cows?

Buzzsprout Weekly ·

2026/06/23

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey Podcasters! One of the reasons I love highlighting Buzzsprout creators is that they often find uses for podcasting that most of us would never think of! Take Got Any Cows. It's a podcast hosted by Seth Christensen, who runs a cattle operation in Idaho. He originally started the show because he wanted a more consistent way to connect with customers than the occasional Facebook post. Then listeners started asking: "Can we see the cows?" And that questi...

The good news is that you don't necessarily have to choose. In this week's video, Tom Buck breaks down the differences between the two platforms and why they actually serve different purposes.

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! Most podcast advice focuses on how to keep your show going. But this week on Buzzcast, we explored a different question: When is it time to start something new? We're not talking about quitting podcasting. In fact, quite the opposite. We're talking about when a podcast naturally reaches the end of its run. Sometimes it's because your interests evolve.

2026/05/26

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! A lot of podcasters assume getting booked as a guest is all about having a huge audience or impressive credentials. But that's usually not what hosts care about. Hosts want guests who have something clear to contribute and make the conversation interesting!
