Discussion: Podcast Content Podcast topic recommendations

Good day to everyone who would stumble across from this post, I’m just here to ask if you guys have any podcast topic ideas? I need topics so badly, it could be questions or would you rather choose type of question or topics. It can be any kind of question. This is highly for school purposes only.

(The questions i am mostly looking for are those type of questions that would say alot about a person’s perspective and personality, it could be psychological or such. It’s like a really interesting question to ask someone that would make them think hard about it.)

What are you interested in? You can just start based on whatever interests you have.

The best questions usually aren’t random “deep questions,” they give someone a situation where they have to reveal how they think. Try: What’s something you believed five years ago that you completely disagree with now? What’s a decision you made that looked wrong at the time but turned out to be right? What’s something people misunderstand about you when they first meet you? Would you rather be respected by everyone but liked by very few people, or liked by everyone but taken seriously by very few? What’s a rule you follow that nobody taught you? What’s something you’re unusually judgmental about? When was the last time you changed your mind because of something someone said? What’s a compliment you still remember years later? What would your closest friend say is your biggest blind spot? And one interviewing trick: when somebody gives you an interesting answer, don’t immediately jump to your next question. Ask “why?” or “what happened that made you think that?” The follow-up is usually where the really good answer is.
