I've used some variation of these throughout my journalism career and (new to me) podcasting adventure. What I would offer in addition to all these excellent examples - is that for LONGER and/or more complex interviews with a single guest, rather than ending with a signature question you COULD offer the guest an opportunity to summarize and identify a few key take-away(s). In essence - If nothing else, what are the 2 or 3 things the guest want the audience to remember most about the entire discussion? Perhaps something along the lines of thanking them for their time and plugging their products/pages + "any final thoughts for our audience....?" If I know the interview will run long or will contain new/complex material I usually let the guest know in advance I will leave off with that question so they can summarize. Not appropriate for all interviews but thought I'd mention if the occasion fits.
Thanks for providing great value! I absolutely love these questions. Question number 9 in particular is inspiring me to create my signature question for a new show I'm hosting.
I'm gearing up to dip my toe into the world of podcasting and you actually provided some really good information. I'm totally going to come up with a signature question... thanks; I never thought of that before watching this video.
Wow! Great questions. I've been on several podcasts but the interviewers often don't send the questions ahead of time. Is that standard? I like having the questions sent to me in advance so I can be prepared. What are your thoughts on this?
Many organized and professional podcasters send questions ahead of time, but many also want to catch you with a question that makes you give unrehearsed answers, so they do NOT share them. As a guest, you must determine if you are OK with that or not. If you prefer getting them as a guest, I recommend giving them to YOUR guests. The other thing you can do is share ahead of time the topics you will be willing to discuss as a guest. This will encourage the host to ask them, and most likely help them make their show with you shine. Hope this helps!
@@JeffDolan Thanks Jeff. I plan on sending my guests questions up front so they can prepare and also asking if there are any questions they would like me to ask.
