For a long series, “oldest to newest” can skip from the oldest episode to the newest episode without stopping in between (i.e., from episode 1 to episode 10, instead of 1, 2, 3, and so on).</mdspan> </p><p>If podcast app users can curate their own playlists, they’re more likely to continue using the app and recommend it to others. <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/listening/overcast-the-listening-app-that-loves-podcasters/">Overcast</a>, for example, has color-coded Smart Playlists that users can set up according to their preference, activity or mood. Audio Drama listening is different than with other pods, and the developers for <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/listening/apollo-fiction-podcast-app/">Apollo</a> and other listening apps have unique challenges. They’re worth the investment, though. </p><p>When <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/promotion/apple-podcast-connect/">Apple Podcasts</a> set up a Fiction category, they helped audio drama podcast discovery by leaps and bounds. Right now, Apple has <a href="https://podcasters.apple.com/support/1691-apple-podcasts-categories" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">three sub-categorie</a>s: Drama, Comedy Fiction, and Science Fiction. Meanwhile, romantic comedy podcasts rise in popularity, to name just one of the many kinds of fictional podcasts. If <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/promotion/best-podcast-directories-where-to-list/">directory</a> developers made more subcategories, it could better reflect the wide range of stories that audio drama podcasters have for audience entertainment. </p><p><a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/websites-hosting/best-podcast-hosting/">Hosting services</a> can (and often do) make technology to improve accessibility with complex material. More and more hosting services offer <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/planning/podcast-transcription/">podcast transcripts</a> as an additional service, or part of users’ hosting package.

Since audio drama requires a slightly different kind of attention, it’s smart for audio drama creators to try making a very accessible podcast, as an introduction to their craft. <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/editing-production/boom-it-review-for-immersive-audio-drama/">Immersive audio</a> that brings the setting and <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/editing-production/mixcubed-spatial-audio/">space</a> to life makes an exciting experience. If you couple this with a straightforward plot and cast a variety of voice actors, your podcast is understandable, while exciting enough to share. Plus, you can promote the podcasts in a way that helps understanding. For example, include transcripts in blog posts, or include a brief, “previously, on…” recap message at the beginning of each episode. Think of this as the tasting platter that a chef offers before they show you the secret menu. </p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Mix Audio Fiction to Life, or Write For Your Restrictions</h3><p>Make the environment as real as you can, or change the story’s environment. If you can’t make cinematic sound, write a story that includes rough sound. Homecoming, for example, uses lots of phone conversations and doctor’s office recordings. The Goblet Wire, The Tower and Quid Pro Quo use rough-sounding audio to heighten the unearthly presentation. If you can’t get your actors in one room, make the characters talk on the phone or have online chats. Poorly mixed audio that’s inconsistent with the narrative and setting isn’t a good way to introduce new audiences to audio drama; it’s distracting.</p><p><a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/listening/what-are-binaural-beats/">Binaural audio</a>, or “you really have to have headphones to appreciate this” sound is exciting. However, it can be a barrier for some people. Try mixing your audio for at least one episode or series where people can listen on speakers, together. A <a href="https://www.sxmmedia.com/insights/5-reasons-brands-shouldnt-sleep-on-co-listening" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">recent study by Sirius XM</a> says that “the mindsets and moods of listeners during these shared audio moments is important to keep in mind. While listening with others, people feel a host of positive emotions, with relaxed, happy, entertained, productive, and carefree topping the list.” Shows like <a href="http://thrillingadventurehour.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Thrilling Adventure Hour</a> are meant to be heard by a group. They’re recorded and presented for radio that existed before stereo, and easy to share.</p><div class="wp-block-tph-related-post tph-related-block tph-related-block--horizontal tph-related-block--style-outline"><div class="tph-related-block__thumb-wrap"><a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/fiction-podcasts/how-to-make-a-fiction-podcast/" class="tph-related-block__thumb-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><picture decoding="async" class="tph-related-block__thumb"> <source type="image/webp" data-lazy-srcset="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-300x169.jpg.webp 300w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-1024x576.jpg.webp 1024w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-768x432.jpg.webp 768w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-290x163.jpg.webp 290w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-350x197.jpg.webp 350w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-445x250.jpg.webp 445w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-635x357.jpg.webp 635w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-580x326.jpg.webp 580w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-700x394.jpg.webp 700w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-890x501.jpg.webp 890w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast-1270x714.jpg.webp 1270w, https://www.thepodcasthost.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/How-to-make-a-fiction-podcast.jpg.webp 1280w" sizes="(min-width: 768px) 205px, (min-width: 390px) 320px, calc(100vw -

Always wanted to make your own? You’ve come to the right place!</span> <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/fiction-podcasts/how-to-make-a-fiction-podcast/" class="tph-related-block__more-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span>Find out more »</span></a></p></div></div><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Keep The Plot Straightforward and Clear</h3><p>For just one series, keep your plot straightforward, and your character voices varied enough so that it’s easy or the audience to keep track. I love a multi-layered story with plot twists too. But, when you’re introducing your audience to the audio drama medium, save <a href="https://medium.com/@justindempsey/the-prestige-c0edd0f793cb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">prestige-style storytelling</a> for your next big project. </p><p>Diversity in casting means more than you think. The more your performers in a scene have different ages, voice pitches, regional dialects, etc., the easier it is for your audience to tell the characters apart and follow the story. The more the characters sound alike, the more confusing the story is to follow. </p><h3 class="wp-block-heading">Promote It Like Cable TV: Recap, Explain, Warn. </h3><p>Recaps are extra work, but they help. Again, with a podcast that has more than one season, many characters and complex plots, do what you’d love your fans to do. Make a recap video, explaining everything that happened in the last season and <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/promotion/should-you-advertise-your-podcast-on-youtube/">promote it on YouTube</a>. Or make a recap episode as part of your regular RSS feed. Write your recap so that it avoids or warns the audience about spoilers. </p><p>Content warnings don’t have to spoil any surprises. We’re used to ratings for television and films; they give us a vague idea of what to expect. Put them in the show notes, or put a link in the show notes to a blog post with detailed content warnings. </p><p>Take advantage of <a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/fiction-podcasts/best-audio-fiction-podcasts/">comparisons</a>; they’re obvious, but they work. I’ve told people that if they like the <em>Thor</em> movies and the <em>Loki</em> tv show, or if they play <em>God of War: Ragnarok</em>, they’ll like <em>Jarnsaxa Rising</em>. Introducing new audiences to audio drama works best when you start with something they like. Bait the hook with cheese, not caviar. </p><h2 class="wp-block-heading">Lots of Things Are An Acquired Taste: That Doesn’t Mean They Have to Disappear.</h2><p>Wine, chapulines, and hákarl aren’t the first foods most people would reach for, but they all have nutritional benefits. Some people grew up with audio drama and some seasoned podcasters have never heard of it. <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/heres-what-podcast-can-do-your-brain-nick-randall/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Audio drama podcasts give the audiences’ brains and emotions a workout</a> without the risk of real danger. Advertisers and sponsors need to know that <a href="https://podcastmarketingmagic.substack.com/p/from-body-building-to-1m-downloads" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fiction podcasts have a higher conversion rate than non-fiction podcasts</a>, because audiences pay attention longer. </p><p>Finally, podcasts with emotional stakes and changes help us build empathy, which we could all use. Tom Webster’s wish for a broader, deeper, more intimate and immediate podcast experience is here; it simply needs more people to share it.
