Conference Prep: Turn Speaker Articles Into a Podcast
You’re attending a conference next week. 30 speakers. Each has a blog, newsletter, or recent article you “should” read before their talk. You’ll read zero of them.
Then you sit in a session, hear an idea you don’t have context for, and wish you’d done the homework.
The Conference Prep Podcast
Two weeks before the conference:
- Go through the speaker list
- Save each speaker’s most recent article, blog post, or interview to audiclip
- Over the next days, your daily podcast covers each speaker’s ideas
- Walk into every session knowing the speaker’s latest thinking
Why This Changes Your Conference Experience
Without prep: You hear talks cold. You follow 60% of the argument. You ask basic questions that waste everyone’s time.
With prep: You’ve already heard two AI hosts discuss the speaker’s recent article. You follow 90% of the argument. Your questions are sharper. Your networking conversations are more substantive.
The Hallway Track
The best conference content happens in hallways between sessions. Those conversations are better when you can say: “I listened to your recent piece about [topic] — I had a question about…”
Instead of: “So… what do you do?”
Cross-Language Conferences
International conference? Speakers publishing in different languages? Save German, Japanese, French articles and listen in English. Walk in prepared regardless of the original language. 100+ languages.
Post-Conference
After the conference, save articles by people you met. Your daily podcast keeps the relationships warm by keeping you informed about their work.
