How important is Podcast Name?
- Short is Idea and catchy that communicates theme that is not too long
- Descriptive to what the show is about
Is shorter shows better?
- As long as it needs to be
- As long as it is interesting and entertaining - not boring
- Generally 30-50 minutes long
Is it more important to be creative or descriptive?
- Ideally balance of both is good, depending on the content
- Personality is key, like discussed recently on the show
- Clarity of information and message tends to be more descriptive
- Creative takes listeners on a ride of imagination

Thanks for mentioning the Seattle Podcasters Guild! What makes a "podcast city" is the community of podcasters. A strong local ecosystem makes for strong shows. It is just like in music. Cities with strong interconnected music communities produce exceptional bands. I think the same thing will work for podcasting. We just need to start building those communities and that is exactly what the guild is trying to do.

Hey guys! I actually started my podcast doing live shows roughly 2 yrs ago. It is definitely challenging being the host, producer, sound engineer and all in between. I never edited anything.. I love doing it live unfortunately, I ran out of material. But i am planning a reboost to the show....fine tune....thxs for all the advise
