As of November 2nd, Goldstein Media has partnered with the Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center in Doylestown, Bucks County, PA to launch an in-person audio podcasting studio.
As many of you know, Goldstein Media has a sub-brand called Podcast Mastery, where we coach and consult with brands on how to best use podcasting in their businesses and personally. The studio gives that work a physical home in Bucks County.
The Podcast Mastery Studio is open to the whole community, by appointment. Learn more about the studio here.
Why we built it for in-person recording
Remote tools are convenient, but the best conversations happen when two people share a room.
Video calls are fine for a quick check-in. For a show you want people to keep listening to, nothing beats two humans in the same room. Eye contact, body language, and natural timing make a conversation looser, funnier, and more honest. Guests relax, and listeners can hear it.
That is the idea behind the studio. Instead of recording over a laptop at a kitchen table, you sit across from your guest, put on headphones, and talk.
Inside the studio
The studio is set up for a host and one guest, with audio as the focus.
- Two seats, two microphones. Professional microphones on stands, one at each seat.
- An experienced podcaster runs the session. We provide the mics, headphones, and an engineer, and handle sound, levels, and backups while you focus on the conversation.
- Audio first. Right now we are recording audio, the true heart of podcasting. Video recording is coming soon.
You do not need experience or your own equipment. Bring your ideas and your guests.
What we offer
There are three ways to work with us, depending on where your show is today.
- One-on-One Coaching (starting at $250 per session). Personal guidance on format, hosting, guests, and growth, in person or remote.
- In-Person Recording (starting at $350 per session). Record in the studio with two seats, two mics, and an experienced podcaster running the session. Your audio files arrive within 5 business days.
- Full Production (starting at $600 per session). We take your show from idea to published episode, including coaching, in-person recording, editing, mixing, show notes, and publishing and distribution support.
Not sure which fits? Start with a free consultation and we will recommend a plan.
Who it is for
The studio is open to every member of the community, not only brands.
If you are a business thinking about launching a branded podcast, you can plan the format and record your first episodes in one place. If you are an individual with a show idea, coaching can take you from concept to your first recording. And if you already publish, an experienced ear can help you sharpen your hosting, improve your guest conversations, and grow.
Whoever you are, the person running your session is Seth Goldstein, an experienced podcaster with more than 15 years in the industry. Since 2010, Seth has been hosting and producing podcasts for Goldstein Media as well as for clients and colleagues across the country.
