Before you can cook a large feast you must prep the ingredients to cook them. The same concept goes for being a guest on podcasts. It is important that you do your own research on the podcast you will be a guest on. Maybe take some time to listen to an episode and scroll through the host’s social media platforms. Lastly, based on your research you may want to prepare some key talking points to have in an easily visible place to only you (sticky note on your monitor, or an additional monitor screen or tablet) so that you can refer to them during the podcast recording.
