In the Season 3 Finale we have a topic that was two-seasons in the making – returning from a hiatus. This week we reflect on our experience returning from a hiatus including some of the successes we had, as well as some of the areas we wish we had handled better.
In this week’s Better Podcasting Download we discuss Generative AI in podcasts, how we think it’s not ready yet, but where we think it might start finding its home soon.
For the Better Podback we have a listener asking about mic arms, we talk scheduling a guest far ahead and one listener follows up about the Procaster comment.
