This is the second lesson in our three-part mini course about how to book, plan, and execute engaging podcast interviews.

In this lesson, Jonny leads a deep dive into the fundamentals of planning a great podcast interview. Not simply a do this next discussion, but a look into key mistakes Jonny made in planning his first 200 interviews — and more importantly, how you can avoid these mistakes yourself.

Making it easy for our guests to book an interview with us is key. Luckily, there are a lot of tools available to us as Showrunners to make this as easy as possible. We go over a couple options to get you rolling.

We all want our interviews to be deep, authentic conversations with our guests. Often times the easiest way to accomplish this is with planning, but it can also be as simple as staying focused on setting up your guest to be awesome.

Along with all of this talk about interviews, Jonny and Jerod provide two more podcast recommendations for your listening enjoyment:

• Jerod: Beautiful/Anonymous: Beautiful stories from anonymous people
• Jonny: The Digital Entrepreneur: Secrets of a Six-Figure Online Course Builder
