A Pre-Session Questionnaire for Podcast Guests

To help speed up sound check and avoid technical issues in advance, I now ask my clients guests to fill out a short multiple choice questionnaire asking them about their setup in terms of microphone, computer, WiFi strength, headphones, recording space, etc.

Usually I receive their answers several days in advance of their interview, so if there are any glaring issues I will contact the guests for clarification or to make suggestions.

This process helps ensure that there will be no major technical issues when they show up for the actual recording session.
