Travis, I’ve been tuning in from time to time and still see your numbers are just not taking off…giving this much thought and am wondering if it’s due to your approach as the host. From my radio broadcasting classes in college, I remember our classes on doing an interview. My opinion would be that you might want to do some studies on How to be an interesting and effective interviewer. Your podcasts just seem to be lacking in this respect and just don’t seem to be drawing people in…me included. Hopefully this comes across as helpful and not critical.
Harry, thank you for your comment and recommendation. We have gone back and forth as a team on the nature of things, which may be one of the factors at work, perhaps the most glaring. This specific interview you commented on is from two years ago when we didn't have a UA-cam channel and we are just now catching up and getting old content out (this is the last of our old content, so the newer stuff is decidedly different in style), so that maybe one of the other factors at work (putting out old content that is less in quality, style, specific direction, and for my interviewing style). Along with the interview format/type, there are other factors at work (SEOs, marketing, the platform itself, clear direction, more of an intellectual audience, professionalism, etc.). But your point is made and that is something we are going to keep looking into. We want to get the best content out to help the church at this critical moment, and if my approach is not working, well, we want to change that. Thanks for watching and commenting!
