       There are many reasons why I've managed to get into the absurd situation where I get paid to talk to my friends about computers, but one of the most important ones (I think) is that I take the time to listen back to every episode before it is published. This adds time to the process, but it's worth it for so many reasons.If you make a podcast and can't be bothered to listen to it, why on earth would you expect anyone else to listen to it?

       @JoeRess I think this goes beyond producers and the voice 'talent' (I use that loosely as I don't consider myself very talented) should be listening to it post production to see how they can improve themselves. Always learning and trying to be your best self.

       @Tubsta @JoeRess very few authors read their own post production work, and very few podcasters of my acquaintance listen to their own shows post production. Hell, very few authors even read their own *comment sections* on their work, IME!I always do, though. If you don't test-consume your own output, you don't know if it's any good. And as far as comments sections go... Even apart from the almighty Engagement, I've learned a lot from reading and conversing with folks who comment on my work.
