So I'm going to be starting up a sports podcast with a couple of friends, recording our first episode next week. I've listened to a lot of podcasts, and I feel like one of the most important things is to have good segments that repeat every week, but we're having a hard time coming up with creative segments that people will enjoy listening to. You guys have any ideas or suggestions? What makes a good podcast?

The podcast is going to be primarily based towards local listeners, covering about 30% USU athletics, 30% Utah Jazz and other stories and teams of local importance, and 40% national sports and stories.


How's this going.


Hey, thanks for the thought man. It's going pretty well I think, we've already gone through a lot of different ideas and had a ton of trial and error with what is working and what is not, but I think that things are finally starting to come together. We started out just trying to squeeze as much information about a ton of different topics into a one-hour weekly podcast, but quickly realized that wasn't the way to go. So now we've started doing separate 30-40 minute long podcasts for different topics (USU sports, NFL, NBA, etc) and releasing them throughout the week.

Perhaps down the road once we have it a little more refined I will share a link on here for some feedback, we really haven't made much effort to get it out to the mass public yet though because I'd like a slightly better product before we really push it out. Just the experience and trying different things has been huge though, and it's already MUCH better than when we started.
