Ever had a guest on your podcast with a big audience, and you’re stoked for them to share the episode to help grow your show — only for them to do NOTHING once it airs?! (Hint: it’s not because they’re lazy or forgetful.)

Plus, we’ll talk about how to stop your guest from rambling (without making it awkward), and what you can do after the interview to make sure they’re hyped to promote the episode — even if it airs weeks later.

So if you want to build stronger relationships with your podcast guests and turn them into advocates for your show, this one’s for you. Hit play and let’s make your business bingeworthy.

You’ll find out how AI is silently devaluing your expertise, why listeners always know when something feels off (and how that kills engagement), and the five things you should never outsource to AI—unless you want to blend in with everyone else.

Video podcasting is everywhere. But does that mean your podcast needs it? Because let’s be real: we both know that repurposing full-length episodes or posting random clips won’t cut it if you actually want to grow your audience. In this episode, I’m back with Bryan Fittin of GoRogue Studios to break down the stupidly effective way to leverage video podcasting—aka the type of content that makes listeners fall in love with your show, the one thing you should be sharing to turn casual viewers into superfans, and why you don’t need fancy production to grab attention. So if you don’t want to hire a full production team, spend hours editing, or post content that looks great but doesn’t actually drive listeners back to your show, hit play and let’s dive in. 0:02 – Video Podcasting Won’t Grow Your Show—But This Will 1:39 – The Type of Content That Makes Listeners Fall in Love With You 5:00 – Why the Smallest Moments Build the Biggest Audience 10:41 – Why Low-Tech, Low-Production Video Delivers More Value Than You Think 18:01 – The Best First Step If You’re Stuck on What to Post Episode Links: Connect with Bryan: GoRogueStudio.com Other Episodes You’ll Enjoy: How Video Can Make (or Break) Your Podcast → This episode was recorded on the Deity VO-7U Support the show Liked this episode?

Video podcasting is not the magic growth hack you’ve been sold. In fact, too many podcasters are finding out the hard way that adding video is costing them nothing but time, energy, and listeners. That’s why I invited Bryan Fittin, founder of GoRogue Studios, to break down exactly what adding video can and can’t do for your show—and the risks no one’s talking about when you don’t approach it strategically. We cover AI video editors (spoiler: they’re not a shortcut), which platform is actually best for getting started with video (hint: it’s not YouTube), and why adapting your podcast content for video takes more than flipping your iPhone around and hitting record. So if you’re wondering whether video is the next big move for your podcast or another recipe for burnout, hit play and let’s dive in. 0:55 Why Video Podcasting Might Cost You More Than It Gains You 8:45 The Truth About AI Video Editors (And Why They Won’t Save You Time) 12:15 The Best Platform for Video Podcasts (Hint: Not YouTube) 17:40 Why You Can’t Just Flip Your Camera and Hit Record 21:30 Should You Add Video or Stick to Audio?
