How I Podcast While Traveling (My Exact Setup) | The No-Studio Podcast Setup

Traveling doesn’t mean your podcast has to hit pause.
In this episode of As It Relates to Podcasting, I’m sharing how to stay consistent with your show even when you’re living out of a suitcase. Whether you’re hopping between countries, speaking at events, or managing life between two homes, this episode walks you through the exact tools, setup, and mindset you need to keep your show on track—without compromising quality or your sanity.
From simplifying your tech to planning content that travels well, I’ll show you how to create a portable podcasting process that fits your lifestyle. This is your permission slip to hit record—even if you’re not in your perfectly curated home studio.
🔑 Key Themes & Takeaways:
The Truth About “Batching Ahead” – Why recording everything before a trip isn’t always realistic—and what to do instead to keep momentum going.
Travel-Friendly Equipment – A breakdown of the exact mic, lighting, and camera setup I pack when I’m podcasting on the go (plus, how to keep it compact and effective).
Set Design on the Fly – How to make any space look clean, intentional, and professional without schlepping a full backdrop across the border.
Recording Software That Moves With You – Why tools like Riverside and Descript make podcasting remotely so much easier—and what to consider for crisp, clear audio.
Planning for Flexibility – The value of having a loose content calendar to save your brainpower, and why simplicity always wins when you’re working in new environments.
Done > Perfect – A heartfelt reminder that your message matters more than a perfect setup. With a little intention and a portable process, you can show up everywhere your podcast needs you to be.
Whether you're a digital nomad, a speaker on the go, or just someone who likes to mix work with wanderlust—this episode proves that podcasting doesn’t have to stay rooted to one place.
