    I can't speak for everyone else, but I only really listen to podcasts that have some kind of structure and topic to them. So I'd say keep it to an hour max, have a good idea of what you want to talk about, and some idea of how you're going to structure those topics. So if it's a music podcast, you'll obviously always have new albums to talk about. @MTY is pretty experienced when it comes to that, so maybe consult him.

    Number one rec is to make eps on the shorter side when you start out (30 min max). I see people I know irl posting their podcasts on facebook and s--- and they're like 90-120 min an ep and ain't no one gonna listen to that s--- but your very closest friends. Basically keep in mind that starting out no one is gonna care besides people who know you personally so if you want more people to listen to it I'd keep it shortish. I'll take a chance on a 10-30 min ep podcast made by a rando but if it's two hours I probably won't.

    Would personally prefer mainly music, but also some current affairs. Mostly serious would be best, and funny will come naturally if you guys are funny, then that will be no problem. Sure, do segments, and concerning length, just to a pilot ep and see how far you get with it being interesting. I prefer podcasts being around an hour myself.

    Hi so my 2 friends (ones a dude who knows a bunch about sports, music, drugs etc. the other is a qt girl who knows a fucc load about music) and i who know a lot about music, movies general art stuff and clothes and skating etc. are doing a podcast soon so i was just wondering what ppl would wanna hear like what works iyo etc.
    just music stuff?
    sports? which ones?
    current affairs?
    try to keep it funny or serious or a blend?
    segments?
    length?
    and whatever else just really looking for pointers i guess i think itll be mostly music based bc we all love and know about music but the banter between us all is good and would lend itself well to a podcast. ik these questions are prob hard to answer since you've never heard us talk or w.e but if you got any questions im happy 2 answer
