1

What is the recording process like?

Once your topic has been submitted, SCRS will reach out to schedule a time to record the episode. SCRS will also share the discussion prompts prior to recording. All episodes are pre-recorded via Microsoft Teams and will be audio-only.

How long is each episode?

Finalized episodes are typically 15 – 20 minutes long, with the recording process taking about 30 minutes max.

What is the time frame from planning to release?

While the time frame varies per episode, generally they are posted 3-5 weeks after recording. This will depend on how many episodes SCRS has scheduled to release, as well as any internal approval processes by the organization being featured. The edited audio will be sent to your organization before publishing.

How is each episode promoted?

Episodes are pushed to all major podcast platforms as well as posted to the SCRS website. Episodes are promoted via SCRS social media channels and emails. A branded graphic with the guest’s headshot, organization and title will be provided. We encourage our participating partners to promote their own episodes through their own social media channels as well.

What do I need to do to prepare for the podcast?

Review the questions and write down key points that will help guide your answers. If a script will be used, please practice sounding natural with inflections and emphasis on key phrases. We recommend joining from a computer (not phone) for best audio. We will ask you to mute your phone notifications, instant messages and email prior to recording. We will edit out stumbles and pauses where possible.
