What’s It About?
{PODCAST TITLE PENDING} walks listeners through every step of starting their own podcast. Host Jess Fisher is joined by expert guests in the podcasting space – including her Gen-Z Media co-workers – for episodes that typically run just over five to 10 minutes. Each episode streamlines the process to a single focus, including outlining, creating theme music, picking a name, and getting the necessary equipment. Listeners get specific examples of tools and tactics they can use. And each episode concludes with action items to keep listeners on track until the next episode of {Podcast Title Pending}. What makes the show relatable is that Jess is learning along with the listener, since the whole premise is that she's creating a podcast to help others make a podcast, but needs help figuring out how to make that podcast.
Is It Any Good?
This show does a great job of anticipating the challenges a new podcaster may face as they explore the medium for the first time. {Podcast Title Pending} is great for kid, tween, teen and adult listeners as it's episodes are usually short and to the point as well as entertaining and relatable. It also gives listeners an inside look at what it takes to put together a podcast from the perspective of a well established production company, but then dials it down to make it accessible for newbies with fewer resources and knowledge in the space.
Admittedly, the show targets listeners already interested in starting a podcast. Most kids who listen will inevitably need adult assistance in getting their own shows up and running. {Podcast Title Pending} presents the various pieces that make up a podcast – from basics like a concept and name to later steps such as a recording setup and RSS feed – in a concise, streamlined way that will leave listeners eager to follow along and join in.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
