What To Do When Your Friend Says They’re Starting Their Own Podcast

DON’T PANIC. You knew this moment was bound to arrive. One of your friends has expressed sufficient confidence in themselves and a complete lack of self awareness to the point where they are intent on telling you their plans to start a podcast.

What can you do? WWN Podcasting Review has got you covered:

Smile and nod along politely, sound a note of encouragement and confirm that yes, they are right, what the podcast world is missing is someone with no expertise on a particular field weighing in with weekly hot takes.

Agree that it would indeed be like listening to ‘hanging with a few friends, shooting the shit’.

Now that’s over with.

Plant objectionable and illegal images on their phone, laptop and other electronic devices leading to their arrest and imprisonment thus nipping the podcast in the bud before it has the chance to flower like an aural nettle in ear canals.

But wait, when they’re eventually released from prison, won’t a podcast about being set up and wrongly convicted be perfect fodder for a compelling podcast and accompanying live tour, book and Netflix documentary and scripted drama?

No, because this is where Bill ‘The Hammer’ Hughes comes in. He charges competitive rates for murdering his cellmates in prison.
