This Q&A episode was a little different because instead of gathering listener questions, I turned to my best mate — ChatGPT — to ask me five questions about podcasting. Honestly, I had no idea what was coming, but the questions were spot-on and got me thinking deeply about what works and what doesn’t in podcasting.

I shared lessons I’ve learned from years of trial, error, and growth, along with practical advice for podcasters at any stage. What I love about this format is that it forces me to reflect on what I actually believe, and not just what I’ve read or heard.

Key Talking Points
Pivoting Your Podcast – When downloads decline and engagement drops, it’s time to rethink your format or content.
The Social Media Trap – Posting endlessly won’t grow your audience; instead, invest in organic marketing or podcast-specific ads.
Starting from Scratch – The best advice is simple: just start. Don’t wait for the perfect gear or setup.
Sponsorship Without Huge Numbers – Small podcasts can still win sponsors by being niche, creative, and packaging their value.
Building Listener Loyalty – Make your audience feel like they’re part of a club—give them a name and bring them along for the ride.
