Behind the Scenes: Producing the Technometria Podcast
Paul Figgiani, the Executive Producer of the Podcast Academy Channel and the Senior Audio Engineer for IT Conversations wrote up a behind the scenes description of what we did to make this weeks Technometria podcast with Doug Kaye and Jeff Barr.
As Paul points out, there are seven people directly involved: the five people on the call and Paul and Joel Tscherne, the Series Producer for Technometria working behind the scenes. This is a good description of what it takes to make a show. I’m lucky to have good support—Paul and Joel do their jobs well and it makes the rest of us look good.

Podcasting is getting just as complicated as any radio show, to be honest. There's a lot going into it, that I think many people don't realise. Although, I still do prefer the grass roots approach, rather than the producer and produced approach (like a radio show.) While I love the idea of radio – I used to be a presenter and DJ myself – the grass-roots stuff is usually a lot more informative. Well, not saying yours isn't informative. I guess, I hang around with philosophical podcasts more than technical ones anyway. I whole different genre which requires a whole different approach.

I worked as a podcast transcriptionist before. My task was to transcribe podcast on technologies and gadgets as well as electronic games. My favorite was the podcast on the effects of Sudoku. Every time I receive one podcast for transcription, I always wonder how this thing was created. Who are the people behind? What did they do to complete the whole thing? Was it hard? These questions weren’t answered until today.
Thank you so much for disclosing the mysterious world of podcasting. I tell you, it has increased the momentum in me to make it the best shot in my work.
