Podcast Evaluation of The Runner’s Sole Podcast - Here’s What We Found

We’re starting a new type of episode where we evaluate podcasts and kindly discuss what makes a show work and what holds it back. Today, we review The Runner’s Sole by podiatrist Dr. Sharon Miller, a niche running show on foot health and injury prevention. We break down audio quality (intro music length, headset feel, warmth vs over-processing), sound effects balance, and utilize tighter hooks. Then we look at branding: clearer cover art, consistent episode art, a keyword-rich subtitle, and smarter episode titles (“Common Running Injuries” first). We touch the YouTube playbook for thumbnails, plus SEO from transcripts and stronger show notes with resource links or affiliate gear. We also share how our team built this new format, what surprised us, and why consistency on release day matters. Want your show in the spotlight?
