If you have the temerity to start a podcast in this economy, I would encourage you to google things like “Noise Gate,” Compressor,” “De-Esser,” and “best EQ settings for spoken word.” Good luck!

If you're tired of reading articles, or even books - you can just upload them onto NotebookLM to get an AI-podcasted "deep dive". I sampled an Economist piece and got 10 mins worth of surprisingly good repartee!
Step-by-step:
❶ Try NotebookLM" at Notebooklm.google.com
❷ Create a new notebook and upload your document.
❸ Once done, open the "Notebook guide" section and click "Generate" next to "Audio Overview".
❹ Wait a couple of minutes and you can play it anywhere.
Oddly, Google is also running a similar project, with Illuminate (currently only available for papers hosted on http://arXiv.org)

The MyPillow guy’s self-published memoir, read aloud in his thick Minnesotan accent. He’s a professional card counter, constantly $80k in the hole, blowing coke in his Chevy, chased by cops, threatened by drug dealers in Mexico, all while running 3 bars in greater Minneapolis. And that’s before he invents the pillow.

I think my analyst is Freudian, but I have a soft spot for Jung because my parents are from LA. I love hearing analysts use terms like “the imp of the perverse” to talk about procrastination. I especially love the dream analysis, where they’ll tell some random guy the burning hearth in his dream means he’s taking on a feminine role in his marriage.

If you live in an expensive, desirable place like New York City or Key Largo, try swapping apartments with a young freelancer in a Tier 4 city who probably lives in a massive loft. For free. Put your performative Airbnb guilt to good use—take a midcation!
