Industry Insights:

• For when staying off camera is the strategic choice: Signal Hill Insights' Podcast Download report found that audio remains the primary mode of podcast consumption despite growing video options. Continuing to show that video is fun, but it's not necessary for success in podcasting.
• For when your next episode needs a spark (or 90): A great podcast interview feels effortless, but it rarely is. Interviewers spend a lot of time preparing to make an interview great. We know it's not always easy to think up unique questions on your own, so we made a master list of 90+ questions to help you prepare!
