About this episode

This episode discusses the effectiveness of podcast transcripts versus shownotes and emphasizes the importance of feedback from listeners.

Many things are said during a podcast. In fact, you know what? You can read all about it. That's right. Transcription services. They're all the rage inside of podcasting, but I can tell you, they're not the most compelling use of time. I mean, like, have you ever actually read a transcript of your podcast? If you haven't, I got good news, but I got more bad news. We'll share all of that and more inside this episode of the Podcast Gauntlet where we Throw-Down, Discuss, Rise & Shine in Podcasting!
