Podcasters should have strong technical skills and be knowledgeable about their subject area. You’ll need excellent communication skills and should have a strong understanding of your audience.

Podcasters should be up to date with current trends and be able to speak for extended periods. You’ll need to have good sound recording and editing abilities.
