Five Tips for Podcasters Who Need to Take a Break
1. Be sure to let your listeners know one or two episodes in advance that you'll be away for a certain length of time, and let them know when you'll be back. Some people listen to shows from the Web site, so you might want to post an update there as well.
2. If possible, produce one show (or more) in advance that can be post-dated and published while you're away. This way, you won't have to notify your listeners at all, they won't even know you're gone! Most podcasting feeds/blogs allow post-dating so that posts and files won't be available for download until a date you specify.
3. Ask a substitute host to take over your show. This might provide a good bridge while you're away, and offer your listeners something different. Caution: make sure your substitute host isn't BETTER than you!! (Matt and Aaron are really worried about the repercussions of this idea. In fact, they're not at all happy we mentioned it.)
4. If you're up for it, take your podcasting gear along on your trip. Your listeners might enjoy hearing about your vacation. And you'll already have material for the next show when you return.
5. Finally, when you return, be sure to give your audience a re-cap of your vacation, ask them for feedback on the vacation episodes or substitute host. Be sure to make your audience feel as if you missed them, and that you're glad to be back podcasting again!!
