How to record audio and upload it to Spotify

Finish the episode first, then publish through a podcast host. Spotify-hosted shows appear on Spotify after the first episode; externally hosted shows can be claimed with an RSS feed and email verification.

Create an outline or script, confirm rights and consent, choose the quietest practical setup, and record a short representative test before committing to the full session.

Keep the microphone position consistent, work in manageable sections, and after a mistake pause before repeating the complete sentence.

Use the transcript to remove retakes and unwanted sections, preserve intentional pauses, and improve clarity conservatively while comparing against the source.

Listen from beginning to end, confirm rights and sensitive material, then prepare the required file, metadata, transcript, artwork, or platform submission details. Recheck current third-party requirements before uploading.
