Why You Don't Always Need New Episode Ideas

You’re probably sitting on content that could still be useful today. But once an episode is published, it’s easy to move straight on to the next one.

Which means good episodes get buried over time.

But here's the thing - you don’t always need new content ideas. Sometimes you just need to reuse the good ones.

Something a lot of podcasters do is sit on content that could still be useful today.

Speaker: 00:00:04

And that's understandable, because once an episode is published,

Speaker: 00:00:07

it's easy to move straight on to the next one.

Speaker: 00:00:10

But that can mean good episodes get buried over time. So here's something worth doing.

Speaker: 00:00:15

Go back through your catalogue and find a couple of episodes that are still relevant.

Speaker: 00:00:19

For example, if you did an episode on editing tips a year ago,

Speaker: 00:00:23

chances are that advice still holds up. So re-share it.

Speaker: 00:00:27

You could post it again with a new takeaway or mention it in a new episode as

Speaker: 00:00:31

a follow-up, because not everyone heard it the first time, and even if they

Speaker: 00:00:35

did, a reminder can still be valuable.

Speaker: 00:00:37

You don't always need new content ideas, sometimes you just need to reuse the

Speaker: 00:00:42

good ones. Until the next time, happy podcasting.
