Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey Podcasters! Coming up with new episode ideas can feel easy in the beginning, but a few months in, it’s common to hit a wall. If you’ve ever sat down to record and thought, “What am I even going to talk about this week?” you’re not alone. In this week’s episode of Buzzcast , Jordan and Alban sit down with Dave Jackson from School of Podcasting to talk about how to never run out of ideas for your podcast. Dave’s been podcasting for over 20 years and has launched more than 30 shows, so he can relate to what it’s like to run out of ideas. But he also knows how to get inspired again. The conversation covers everything from how to build an ongoing idea bank to how to stay in tune with your audience so your episodes always feel relevant. Dave also shares personal stories from his own shows, including times he’s rebranded or moved on to something new to keep content fresh. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re out of ideas or just out of motivation, this episode is for you! You can listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts , and text us what you think!
