Hi all!

I just started my podcast and I was wondering if you guys listen to your own podcasts or is that just vain?

Hey, Steve!

Yes, I listen to my show. Part is just so that I can hear more of the conversation that I might have missed, and part of it is listening for mistakes and areas we can improve. Not vain at all. :)

I listen a lot to it to catch mistakes and make sure it made it to iTunes as well as I thought it did during editing. Since we do a 3-4 person "multi-ended" podcast, it takes a bit of editing and I try to minimize mistakes.

I listen to all my casts. Sometimes multiple times.

.....even after they're published.

I don't think it's vain. I really enjoy the topics that my podcasts cover - so I love listening to them and would be a big fan even if I wasn't making them.

I know we do... sometimes more than once, mainly because people listen to them that are around me... like sometimes at the office.

It is a good thing, I usually like to listen back the next day before we publish the newest episode to see if we catch anything we didn't notice the first pass. That whole... 'fresh eyes' thing... :D

That whole... 'fresh eyes' thing... :D


Only for podcasters it's the "fresh ears' thing. :eek:
