Better Podcasting #045 - Explicit vs Clean Podcasting
During this episode SP and Stephen discuss the pros and cons of both Explicit and Clean Podcasting. We discuss some considerations you may have before you pull the trigger and some methods on deciding which might save you some editing time later. In the Better Podcasting Download, we discuss the IAB Podcast Metrics September 2016 document, some of our favorite parts and how it affects you as a hobby podcaster. Finally, we take some listener feedback in Better Podback.
