305 - Is Humor Your Missing Link?

This morning, we asked, “Is there a place for comedy on a business podcast?” With Marc on vacation, stand-up comedian and podcaster Amanda Yoa joins us to share how humor helps podcasters connect, keep things fresh, and stay true to themselves. She talks about her journey from chasing trends to finding her voice, offers tips on developing a character like her signature “Pam from Port Richmond,” and explains why letting loose might be the smartest move you make behind the mic.Episode Highlights: [02:10] Icebreaker:  If your podcast had a sitcom character, who would it be?[05:28] Amanda Yoa's Journey into Comedy and Podcasting[10:43] Integrating Humor into Business Podcasts[13:49] Personal Stories and Audience Engagement[27:43] Incorporating Humor in Podcasts[31:27] Rebranding and Personal Branding[38:43] Comedy Inspirations and Techniques[42:00] Organic vs Scripted Mid-Rolls and Sponsor Integration​Links & Resources: The Podcasting Morning Chat: www.podpage.com/pmcJoin The Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group:www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredpodcasting⁠Connect With Amanda Yoa: https://amandayoa.comUnzipped With Amanda Yoa: https://amandayoa.com/podcastFollow Amanda Yoa on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amandayoa.official/Get Your Tickets For The Empowered Podcasting Conference: https://www.empoweredpodcasting.com/Remember to rate, follow, share, and review our podcast.
