Are you unknowingly sabotaging your podcast? We’re diving deep into the biggest pitfalls that trip up even the most seasoned podcasters—and how you can avoid them. From stretching episode lengths (when is it too long?) to finding the right balance with ads, we tackle the choices that can make or break a show’s success.
Plus, we're thrilled about all the Buzzsprout podcasters announced in the Women in Podcasting Awards, Kevin gets excited about a cognitive study on speed-listening, and we recount our recent meetup in Nashville!
