FYI, here’s a nice in-depth article by iZotope titled What is Mid/Side Processing?
Basically Mid/Side processing allows you to process (EQ, compression, etc.) the middle/center of the stereo spectrum (“Mid”) separately from processing the sides (“Side”) of the stereo spectrum (stuff panned hard left and right).
It’s handy in many situations in music production, but it’s definitely not necessary for everyday podcast production.
Note, not all plugins have mid/side processing functionality.
Have you ever used Mid/Side processing?

I’ve never used it in Podcast production.
The only time i think it could be appropriate would be if you were recording intro/outro music, even then it would depend on the music style.
I’ve played with it a little but I don’t have any use for it in podcast production yet.
