536. How to Create Podcast Interviews People Remember
Anyone can create a podcast, but creating interviews that listeners remember takes a different set of skills. The morning show cast and crew sit down with podcasting veteran Dave Jackson to talk about what it really takes to create podcast conversations that feel natural, engaging, and worth sharing. From researching guests and asking stronger follow-up questions to building lasting relationships and using AI without losing the human touch, the discussion is full of practical lessons from years behind the microphone. Here's the thing, the best interviews aren't driven by a list of questions. They're built on curiosity, preparation, and a willingness to truly listen.
