Before we Begin
First off, welcome! I’m thrilled that you’re interested in being a guest on The Martin Talk Show Podcast. This podcast is all about real conversations, creative journeys, and sharing stories that inspire. Whether you’re an artist, performer, filmmaker, or someone with a unique perspective, this is your space to connect with an engaged audience.
Before we get started, the first step is to complete the release form. This ensures I have your contact details and confirms that you understand this podcast will be filmed as both video and audio. As the creator, I own the rights to the content and will distribute it accordingly—but I’m always happy to discuss any concerns before recording. My goal is to create an open, honest, and enjoyable experience for you.
Being a guest is completely free. I’ll never charge anyone to share their thoughts, experiences, or creative work on the podcast. That said, I know many guests have a passion, product, or project they want to promote. Below, I’ve outlined how we can work together to maximize the reach and impact of your episode, so your message gets in front of the right audience. Let’s make the most of this opportunity!

After the Podcast
Ahead of your podcast appearance, there are a few things to prepare to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. First, make sure you know the agreed time and location. Many of the venues I use either charge a fee or require advance booking, so it’s important we stick to the schedule. If anything changes or you’re running late, please let me know as soon as possible.
It’s also worth thinking about what you’d like to share. Whether it’s a personal story, a project, or a passion, this is your opportunity to connect with the audience. There’s no need to rehearse or script anything — the best conversations are the ones that flow naturally!
When you arrive, we’ll take a few moments to settle in before we start recording. The podcast is filmed in both video and audio, so wear something you feel comfortable in that represents you well on camera. If you have any last-minute questions or concerns, we can chat before we begin.
Most importantly, relax and enjoy the conversation. This is a space for honest, engaging discussions, and my goal is to make you feel at ease. Be yourself, have fun, and let’s create a great episode together!
Once we’ve wrapped up our conversation, the real magic begins! It typically takes 2–4 weeks to edit and release the episode, though timelines can vary depending on the schedule. If you need your episode to go live sooner, let me know—we can discuss options to fast-track the release.
But the work doesn’t stop there! To make the biggest impact, we’ll need to engage the audience and spread the word. In the next section, you’ll find some simple yet powerful ways we can maximize the reach of your episode and get it in front of the right people. Let’s make sure your story gets the attention it deserves!
audience engagement
Your episode isn’t just another conversation—it’s a chance to connect with a thriving global audience!

On Spotify, the video podcast ranked in the Top 10% most viewed worldwide, proving just how engaged our audience is. The majority of listeners are between 20 and 40 years old, with 60% men, 30% women, and 10% unknown or other—a diverse, passionate community eager for creative and thought-provoking content.
