Ash and Kane discuss frequently asked questions about the legal aspects of podcasting. While most podcasters won't encounter these issues, they talk about when having contracts in place matters and why maintaining clear communication with your guest is always important.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Podcast advert regulations are much more relaxed than other platforms such as TV. This means there are certain industries it appeals to, such as gambling.
- Sending long contracts with editing clauses will put off guests. It’s unnecessary.
- Good interview practice is to simply ask the guest if there are any topics they don’t want to discuss.
- If your guest breaches their NDA, and you still publish it, you are also at risk of being sued.
- If someone is paying you commercially, such as a sponsor, then you need to ensure you have the correct contracts in place.
