Roles of a Podcast Host

Thank you for your interest in joining the Detroit is Different Network.

Detroit is Different, began as a website to highlight the culture of Detroit connected to and associated with me. Today’s vision includes the ideas, artistry, and vision of other creative thinkers too. This expansion is through the vehicle of the Detroit is Different podcast.

Moving forward ensuring the Detroit is Different Podcast Network stands as an anchor for other content creators of Detroit will take committed, consistent, and creative production. Every Detroit is Different Podcast affiliated with the network should be able to look to the each for ideas, organization, and vision.

Host Roles

  • LISTEN TO PODCASTS: Humble yourself to familiarize yourself with other podcasts to gather a better understanding of the market. If you don’t listen to podcasts it will be heard in your performance.
  • Creative Perspectives: Podcasting is an experiential journey between the listener and host. Exploring this journey is best executed when the host ventures upon this journey with the listener together. THIS IS NOT TALK RADIO & DON’T MAKE IT LIKE THAT. The goal is to provide conversations that are unique, niche, and creative beyond the realm where talk radio goes
  • Be a Listener: Listen to your podcast and expand upon the vision by being a fan of your own work. The attitude of “I make it for them” is the passive approach often associated with ‘Broadcast-Based’ content. The way a podcast grows is by listening and appreciating the journey. Through listening write down the questions, conversations, and points of view you missed. This will grow your podcast.
  • Passion & Purpose: If you don’t believe in what you’re saying your audience won’t either. Detroit is Different will not censor your content but we do rely on your wisdom, knowledge, interest, and love for what you speak as a basis to proudly present your content.
  • Guest Engagement: The Detroit is Different Incubator was developed to welcome people to create content, do just that in an engaging way. Encourage your guest and book guests to add to your creative vision.
  • Show Production: Find a producer for your podcast and develop your podcast with your producer
