Schedule Your Online Recording

I recommend we do a short private intro call to get acquainted and check our technical setup. Please schedule the intro call here. (We can skip this if you have podcasting experience and/or we are sufficiently acquainted.)

Please schedule your 90-min recording session here:

Info

Time

  • The recording will take 60 to 90 minutes.

  • I am in Sweden, in the Central European Standard Time zone.

  • I try to have nothing scheduled after our session and can continue indefinitely (e.g. if we enjoy talking and want to keep going, or have technical issues that burn time).

Format

  • This is a video podcast, published on podcasts and YouTube.

  • Feel free to swear, rant, go off-topic, reveal trade secrets, ask questions, talk about private things... We can remove these afterwards. But we cannot add anything new.

  • Please tell stories! We do talk about abstract ideas, but I will often ask for stories that happened to you or people you know, to illustrate the ideas.

Tech

  • Do not use a wireless microphone, especially AirPods. A good external microphone is best, but Mac microphones will do.

  • We will use Riverside as the recording platform. You will receive a link to the Riverside space when you book your recording.

After Recording

  • We edit to keep episodes as short as possible. We remove “umm” sounds, repetitions, etc., while still maintaining natural conversation. We aim to make you sound smart, and keep our audience listening.

  • You will receive a link to the final cut, ahead of publication, and have the chance to abort if you really need to.
