What Kind of Podcast
Previously,
we discussed podcasting for marketing and customer reviews. However, the
purpose of your podcasting is really up to you. Keep in mind there are several
kinds of podcasts. The technical terms describing the major kinds of podcasts
are: 1. Solo podcast, 2. Podcast interview, 3. Multi-host show, and 4. Round table.
Personally, I favor the last kind, the round table. It is the best format to
hear multiple perspectives and there is greater room for meaningful discussion
and debate. As a customer, a round table podcast allows you to get a second or
third opinion before you commit to buying something. If you are an advertiser,
obviously a round table will only help market your product or service if there
is a general agreement that the latter are worth the money.
The Young Turks is a critically acclaimed show that provides commentary on
socio-political issues. They have sharpened the tools of polemical debate by
utilizing the round table and multi-host show formats. Here is an example of a
lively debate that podcasters can learn to incorporate in their own shows:
