High Fidelity: How To Build a Better Podcast
Edward Champion has a great mini-essay today about the art of podcasting. Analyzing Unbridled Books' brand-new author podcasts, Champion gives us a couple ideas about how to design a better web interview.

Check it out:

"It makes the catastrophic mistake of having Ed Falco read his work through the phone with the gain at a clipped level. This slack fidelity isn’t the way to get readers interested in an author. An author should read his work in person, ideally in front of a crowd, where the sound man can get decent levels and there’s a better aural dimension. Further, while it’s good to see Unbridled embracing the podcast format, I don’t believe it’s legitimate journalism when a publisher has someone within its own house interview one of its authors."

This is coming from a guy who mastered the author interview, so all the publishers, podcasters, and fledgling writers in the audience should pay attention.

It all made me think about Five Easy Questions. Am I asking the right questions? Do you want different questions? Drop me a line and tell me what you would like to see next...
