If you host an interview-based show, one of your main focuses should be learning how to record an interview.

That's exactly what we cover in this episode!

Joined in the Lab by Solopreneur Hour host Michael O'Neal, Rich Brooks, Forbes columnist Sarah Rhea Werner, We Are Podcast founder Ronsley Vaz and Libsyn‘s Rob Walch, I share everything I've learned by conducting 200+ interviews between my podcasts and virtual summit combined.

From the type of questions to ask to different recording options and how to introduce your guest like a veteran host would, you'll learn everything you need to conduct and record interviews like a pro.
