Importance of Loving Your Podcast Topic

00:01:23
Speaker
or less.
00:01:23
Speaker
Why is it essential na dapat mahal mo yung topic na pipiliin mo kung gagawa ka mo ng podcast?
00:01:32
Speaker
Okay, nakapagandang question.
00:01:35
Speaker
Now, every time na meron akong speaking engagement, ang number one sa bullet point dun sa deck is dapat pag mag-discuss ka ng topic, dapat factual.
00:01:47
Speaker
Kasi may makikinig sa'yo eh.
00:01:48
Speaker
Kahit nagsisimula ka pa lang naman eh, even on a small scale, someone will be able to listen to you.
00:01:54
Speaker
Someone might listen to you.
00:01:55
Speaker
Someone will believe you.
00:01:57
Speaker
So, pag mag-discuss ka ng topic, dapat factual.
00:02:02
Speaker
May sources.
00:02:03
Speaker
And it just so happened, dun sa category ko, it's news.
00:02:07
Speaker
It's all over the internet.
00:02:09
Speaker
So, pag may nagtanong, saan galing yun, may source.
00:02:12
Speaker
Article, yes.
00:02:13
Speaker
At saka, may mga articles.
00:02:14
Speaker
And it's always included dun sa show notes.
00:02:17
Speaker
I always ensure na naan dun siya.

Simplifying Content for Wider Reach

00:02:19
Speaker
Kasi, yung tech news naman, hindi mo naman yun babasahin lang eh.
00:02:22
Speaker
Di sana, binigay mo na lang sa kanila yung link.
00:02:25
Speaker
And then, sila na lang yung magbasa.
00:02:26
Speaker
Huwag ka na mag-podcast, kung ganun.
00:02:29
Speaker
So, ang ginagawa ko dun is that I explain, you know, those articles that I found interesting using layman's terms.
00:02:37
Speaker
Using layman's terms.
00:02:39
Speaker
Para, hindi lang mga tech enthusiasts yung makikinig.
00:02:43
Speaker
May ibang reach.
00:02:45
Speaker
So, kahit hindi ko masyadong naiintindihan.
00:02:48
Speaker
Halimbawa, ako.
00:02:49
Speaker
Hindi ako masyadong techie person.
00:02:52
Speaker
Kahit hindi ko siya naiintindihan at first,
00:02:55
Speaker
Pag nakinig nila sa podcast ko, maunawaan nila.
00:02:59
Speaker
Hopefully.

Using Simple Language in Podcasts

00:03:01
Speaker
So yun.
00:03:02
Speaker
Yes, kasi napapinggal ka naman yung podcast mo.
00:03:06
Speaker
Talagang it's simplified.
00:03:08
Speaker
I think that's why.
00:03:09
Speaker
That's it.
00:03:11
Speaker
It needs to be simplified.
00:03:14
Speaker
And in order for you to reach more people, use simple terms.
00:03:18
Speaker
Use layman's term.
00:03:21
Speaker
That's a good point.
00:03:22
Speaker
Kasi yan din ang diskarte sa vlog.
00:03:25
Speaker
Like you don't have to use mga highfalutin words sa vlog mo kasi hindi maintindihan.
00:03:30
Speaker
It needs to be like easy on the eye.
00:03:32
Speaker
Ganon din yung ano.
00:03:34
Speaker
Easy on the ears naman.
00:03:37
Speaker
Easy on the ears naman yung podcast.
