Podcasting Tips and Techniques from Kyrin Down of Mere Mortals

About Podcasting

Welcome to another episode of About Podcasting. This week, I'm speaking with Kyrin Down from Mere Mortals Podcast and others. We delve into his motivations for podcasting, his workflow, why he does live podcasts, and the intricacies of the YouTube game. Kyron shares his journey into podcasting, which began during his travels in Latin America in 2018-2019. He recounts how casual chats with friends sparked the idea for a podcast, leading to the creation of Mere Mortals. Starting with minimal equipment, Kyron and his co-host Juan have now produced over 1000 episodes across various shows. We discuss the learning curve in podcasting, from experimenting with different recording tools to refining mic techniques. Kyron emphasizes the importance of relistening to your own episodes to identify areas for improvement. Kyron also talks about the value of understanding RSS feeds and the technical aspects of podcasting, which he initially overlooked. He highlights the benefits of incorporating chapter images and going live on podcast apps to enhance audience engagement. We explore Kyron's goals for podcasting, which focus more on audience interaction and personal fulfillment rather than financial gain. He shares his thoughts on the value-for-value model and the importance of creating content that resonates with listeners. Kyron's workflow involves extensive preparation before going live, which allows for a quick turnaround in releasing episodes. He uses various tools like Adobe Audition for editing and emphasizes the importance of recording backups. We also touch on the challenges and benefits of doing live podcasts, the significance of audience engagement, and the evolving landscape of podcasting technology. Finally, Kyron offers valuable tips for aspiring podcasters, including the importance of setting clear goals, testing different approaches, and maintaining consistency. He encourages podcasters to focus on what they enjoy and to be open to evolving their methods over time.
