Podcast Panel Idea for This Show, Looking for Panelists, Guests, Ideas and Happy Thanksgiving Canada

So, I have been thinking about a new format addition to The How To Podcast Series - a regular panel discussion about podcasting with some of my Pod Pals, Past Guests and New Friends that follow this show.

I am looking for a few "regulars" that would like to commit to this and others that would like to pop in here or there when available - if you are interested, reach out to me asap!

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Canadians (like me) and Let's Go, Blue Jays!

Episode 392 - 92 Beats Per Minute, Pacing Your Words When You Speak - Are Your Podcast Listeners Keeping Up With You

Importance of a Listenable SpeedHaving a listenable speed when speaking in public, on stage, or in a podcast is crucial for several reasons:

Speaking Too Slow:

• Boredom: Listeners may lose interest if the pace is too slow, as it can make the content seem dull or unengaging.
• Disengagement: The audience might start thinking about other things, reducing their focus on the speaker's message

Speaking Too Fast:

• Confusion: Rapid speech can make it difficult for listeners to follow the message, leading to confusion or misunderstanding.
• Overwhelm: If the pace is too fast, listeners might feel overwhelmed, which can result in them tuning out or losing interest

Achieving a Pleasing Speed

To ensure a pleasing speed, it's essential to practice varying your pace according to the content and audience. Using pauses strategically can also enhance engagement and comprehension

Recording yourself and listening back can help identify areas where your pace might need adjustment to better engage your audience
