Join a bootcamp where Roshan Abbas will teach you the basics of podcasting
Roshan Abbas
He adds that there is also a certain amount of professionalism involved, telling us over the phone, "Right now, there is a fan behind me while I am talking to you. But had I been recording, I would have probably been under my blanket to drown the noise out." All these factors come into play for a medium of entertainment that gives colour and clothing to the human voice, Abbas says, since podcasts "create video images in the theatre of
the mind."
The inherent anonymity between the presenter and listener also allows for discussions on subjects like mental health, which have assumed added significance during the lockdown. And the expert feels that once the entertainment industry is back on its feet, we will find more podcasts becoming a pipeline of ideas for TV shows.
But all said and done, authenticity remains the key. Anything can be turned into a podcast if you look at it with a fresh lens, Abbas says. So, the end advice he leaves us with is, "Keep your piece ragged and real."
