THE PODCAST LONGEVITY SCORECARD
Is your podcast built to last?
A five-minute assessment for podcasters who want to make something useful, sustainable, and worth continuing.
Starting a podcast isn’t particularly difficult. Keeping one interesting, useful, consistent, and worth making is another story.
Answer 18 questions across six areas: Purpose, Connection, Editorial, Systems, Craft, and Sustainability.
Don’t grade the podcast you intend to make. Grade the one you’re actually making.
