Beyond the Mic: Using Medium to Extend Podcast Content and Engage New Audiences

In the ever-evolving world of podcasting, engaging your audience goes beyond audio. This interactive session will showcase how we use Medium, an online publishing platform, to extend our podcast content into a visually appealing magazine-style layout. This approach allows us to reach new audiences who may prefer reading over listening while also providing an innovative way for existing listeners to dive deeper into our content.

Using our podcast, The Chey and Pav Show, as a case study, we will demonstrate how we repurpose episodes into captivating articles, use design elements to enhance storytelling, and integrate links, images, and multimedia to create a seamless experience. Attendees will leave with actionable steps to:

Transform their podcast episodes into engaging written articles.
Use Medium’s features to design a magazine-style layout.
Develop strategies to reach diverse audiences, including educators, students, and professionals.
