Create Podcasts or Voice Recordings

5. Create Podcasts or Voice Recordings

SoundCloud is great for podcasts. This old form of media distribution is almost as old as the internet. With SoundCloud, you can create entire talk shows, book & poetry readings, news reports, etc.and have a place to upload them. The embeddable audio widget allows you to distribute your show across the web on blogs and other services like Facebook or Twitter.  The waveform comment timeline it provides offers an excellent way to interact with your audience.

Every ‘podcast’ or voice recording doesn’t have to be a syndicated talk-show either. If work has you away from your family for large periods of time, SoundCloud is great way to communicate with your family. You can record audio letters or readings of children’s books for your kids. While spinning a tall tale, you can even use the waveform comment timeline yourself to add personalized comments at different points in the story. Your family will love to hear your voice and can even record stories themselves for you to hear while you are away.

There are many apps available on mobile devices that make it easy to create and upload voice recordings to SoundCloud. SoundCloud’s official iOS & Android apps are great for this job as well, but there are many other 3rd party apps that also integrate directly with SoundCloud.

Usually you get the question of recommending different plays, but your recent podcast endeavors have inspired me. Do you know of any theatre-y podcast-y stuff on the internets? And do you know if yours would become a regular thing? I'm always searching for excellent podcasts. :) Thanks!

Yes! maxamoo is a regular thing, though I am not always on it. (Hopefully I’ll be back again.) However, they are smart and funny and you should listen to them.

Lindsay from maxamoo actually turned me on to The Ensemblist, a neat podcast that covers allllll the different parts involved in putting on a Broadway show. Very educational.

Theater People has been around a while but I’ve just gotten into it. They do fun interviews with, well, theater people. And they’re so charming.
