Podcasting

I worked on the In Good Faith podcast at BYUradio for 2 years and started my own podcast (Take a Leap) in my last year there. Take a Leap was the first student-run podcast at BYUradio. Here’s what I gained:

Communication Skills

* I learned how to speak on the fly and ask enticing questions. The secret? Ask what you would be interested to know the answer to.

Knowledge of Podcasting Equipment

* I knew next to nothing about podcasting when I started at BYUradio. I dove right into the deep end and figured it out as I went along.

Marketing Expertise

* We traveled around Utah (and the US) to promote our podcasts, and I got great at the 20-second elevator pitch. One of our viral videos even landed us an interview with The Daily Universe (read the article here).

We planned and executed the first Take a Leap live event with Two Point Conversion. Watch an edited version here!
