Video podcasting is not the magic growth hack you’ve been sold. In fact, too many podcasters are finding out the hard way that adding video is costing them nothing but time, energy, and listeners.

That’s why I invited Bryan Fittin, founder of GoRogue Studios, to break down exactly what adding video can and can’t do for your show—and the risks no one’s talking about when you don’t approach it strategically.

We cover AI video editors (spoiler: they’re not a shortcut), which platform is actually best for getting started with video (hint: it’s not YouTube), and why adapting your podcast content for video takes more than flipping your iPhone around and hitting record.

So if you’re wondering whether video is the next big move for your podcast or another recipe for burnout, hit play and let’s dive in.
