3. Choose Interesting and Relevant Sources
To increase engagement with listeners, it's a good idea to invite interesting sources who are also experts, or relevant to the topic you want to discuss. So that your podcast will be more interesting for listeners, because they can see it from two different perspectives or points of view.
