Episode Synopsis

Episode 362 - Dave Steps Into Video Podcasting in 2025 - But It Isn't What You Think, Video Podcast Tips You Can Use Today

As an audio-first podcaster, you can leverage video to supplement your podcast without simply posting raw recordings on YouTube. Here are several strategies to create platform-specific content that enhances your podcast:

Short-Form Video Clips

Create bite-sized clips (30-60 seconds) from your podcast episodes highlighting key moments or insights1.
Share these clips on platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts to reach new audiences and drive them to your full podcast


Reflection Videos

Record face-to-camera summaries where you share additional insights or behind-the-scenes thoughts about the episode's content4.
These reflection videos can serve as teasers for upcoming episodes or provide extra value for your audience.


Visual Enhancements

Add simple graphics, text overlays, or animations to your audio content to create more engaging video versions2.
Use tools like Descript or Riverside to easily add captions and visual elements to your podcast content


Platform-Specific Content

Create unique video content for YouTube that complements your podcast, such as Q&A sessions, extended interviews, or visual demonstrations of topics discussed in your audio episodes4.
Develop a YouTube-specific intro and outro that caters to the platform's audience and encourages subscriptions and engagement


Live Streaming

Occasionally live stream recording sessions or host live Q&As on platforms like YouTube or Twitch to engage with your audience in real-time


Behind-the-Scenes Content

Share video snippets of your recording process, equipment setup, or pre-show preparations to give viewers a peek into your podcast production


Repurposed Content

Transform your podcast episodes into video essays or animated explainers that visually represent the concepts discussed in your audio content


By creating platform-specific video content that complements your audio podcast, you can engage with audiences across different platforms while maintaining your audio-first approach. This strategy allows you to tap into the growing video podcast trend without compromising the core audio experience of your show.
