Podcasting has become a valuable tool in medical education, allowing the delivery of flexible, accessible, and engaging content. The technical set up, while secondary to the expertise and message, can dramatically affect the quality and effectiveness of podcasts. The available array of microphones, audio interfaces, virtual studios, and physical upgrades to the recording environment can be daunting for those entering the field. This chapter covers key decision points and information regarding microphone choice, audio interface, virtual studio, visual considerations, physical recording space, editing software, websites/feeds/show notes, and hosting platform. This chapter specifically addresses how to lower the barrier to entry for those without existing experience with audio recording or who are worried they don’t have the technical expertise required to record a podcast.
