Put Your Podcast on Camera

You already have a podcast, or you are ready to start one, and you want people to watch it, not just listen. This book takes your show from audio to video: recording with a camera and microphone in OBS Studio, editing in Descript, and publishing finished episodes to YouTube and Spotify. You set up a video recording in OBS that keeps every voice on its own track, so editing later is not a guessing game. You bring in a remote guest through Descript's built-in recording tool, with each person's audio and video saved separately from their own device. You cut between camera angles or keep one shot centered on whoever is talking, add chapter markers and captions, and export a file that matches what YouTube and Spotify actually ask for. Then you take that file public. You turn a channel into a real YouTube podcast without falling into the RSS shortcut that only produces an audio-with-still-image video. You upload directly to Spotify and understand why that video stays there and nowhere else. You see where Apple Podcasts fits in, and you build a publishing checklist covering titles, thumbnails, episode numbering, and explicit-content flags across all three. By the end, putting out a video episode is a routine you can repeat, not a puzzle you solve from scratch every time.
