Whether you’re a podcast host or a podcast guest, you’re a professional. When we hear your phone announce a new text or your laptop herald a new Slack message, you stop being a professional and you become someone who’s been disturbed while they were busy doing other things.
While you’re recording a podcast, that’s the only thing you’re doing. Put your phone on Do Not Disturb. Set any rules you need to to ensure that people can contact you in an emergency. But silence all sounds from your phone, your tablet, your laptop, and of those around you.
A quick peek inside the process: I write most of these as responses to things that crop up while I’m editing. That means this isn’t hypothetical advice, and it isn’t directed at newbies.
All of us forget at one point or another. But this is why following a pre-flight checklist is so important.
