327 - Should I Read from a Script on My Podcast?

To script or not to script…that is the question. Today, we answer a mailbag question about whether podcasters should write scripts, especially when moving from audio to video. Should you? It depends. We share ways to structure your content using the bullet point approach to writing full scripts. We include tips to help you feel more confident on camera. We also recommend tools that can make the process easier for you. Remember, appearing natural on video takes practice, but with time, you will deliver your message authentically and with ease.
