Shannon, as a fellow broadcaster of many years, I just want to tell you that everything you say in this video is spot on. People, listen to the man when he says it takes practice. Two ways to practice... go slow and take forever to finally sound as good as Shannon, or get obsessed and practice in the shower or in the car. Practice so much you suddenly realize it's the 5th time in a week you've been caught "talking to yourself." Parrot a line, or just a few words, that you hear someone with a professional voice say. But just when you're starting out. If you keep trying to talk that way 20 years later, well, it just sounds weird. You'll find YOUR voice at some point.Finally when Shannon says be entertaining. I want in give my description of that that actually means. Not entertaining like a comedian or a singer. But as a speaker! And you do that in several different ways. Vocal inflection, body language (yes there should always be body language going on when you're speaking. Even into just a microphone.) Loosen up on your nervousness or uncertainty and just act as if your a master at controlled immaturity. Have fun! Thanks Shannon for the video. After a few decades doing this, I still love it!

*How To Become A Great Podcast Host*

I wish there was a bit of magic dust that you could sprinkle on someone and say, "Look at that!  You're an amazing host!"  Unfortunately it doesn't happen like that.

Being a great host of any type of media takes work and fine-tuning your craft.

This video is intended for podcasters, but really applies to anyone out there that is trying to make themselves better everyday.

*Share this post with a friend* who is over-thinking their own process and needs a little bit of encouragement today! :)

Great tips for podcast hosts Also for HOA hosts! Practice, practice and practice again. I'm sure I can do more practicing to hone my HOA hosting. I'm also glad you mentioned using your passion and enthusiasm and convey it through the microphone. For an introvert, like me, my enthusiasm isn't always out there, even though I feel it. I'm still learning how to tap into the energy required to make sure that enthusiasm shines though. Thank you!

Great video man, really like how you go back in forth between being a radio host and hosting your own podcast. I'm dabbling into podcasting because of my love for the radio and woukd love to be a radio host but my career path is taking me in a different direction so podcasting has come about as sort of a hobby to scratch that itch I've always had.

Thank you for this video! Very inspirational, I was actually born three months premature and with all the medical issues I did have - I ended up with a more raspier voice which as I got older discouraged me because a lot of people I’d encounter would point it out. I decided to do a two year broadcast journalism course after graduating from highschool and it was great. I loved the photography portion and use that a lot more and have now started up my own podcast. I’ve only done three episodes so I was curious on ways to better myself and came across your video so thank you. 😊😊😊 This will for sure inspire me to continuously better myself and not feel so discouraged because of my voice.

I’ve been pulling the pieces together for a music-based YT channel. Last night, as I got all the music for episode into Audition, I couldn’t stop smiling, because I love the music so much and can’t wait to share it in my own unique way. I was thinking, “I was made for this!” Until that moment, I had never felt the level of passion you’re speaking about here.
