How to host a podcast, as an introvert

Upload with Nina Das Gupta

Available for over a year

Meet Ella Iggulden from Droitwich, whose podcast is celebrating a year on the air! She reflects on the art of opening up as the host, when it's not natural for her to do so, as an introverted person, and then reaching out to her guests. Ella tells Phillip Stoneman, in for Nina, about the process of finding her guests and reach, through social media, which is becoming a virtuous circle. The series 'Your Story with Ella' is about a refreshing honesty in telling guests' stories, and Ella reflects on how she makes her interviewees feel as comfortable as possible.
