What Should I Drink Before or During Recording?

Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker. And on this episode, we’re talking about what you should drink before or during recording. Getting behind the mic whilst dehydrated is a bad idea for a couple of reasons. Firstly, you’re just going to have less energy and feel a bit groggy. Secondly, you’re going to make more dry lip-smacking mouth noises that’ll have your listener reaching for the ‘unsubscribe’ button. So be sure to have some water before and during your session. Don’t go overboard, though, as over-hydration can lead to excessive mouth noises, too. Plus, There’s nothing worse than needing a pee ten minutes into an engaging interview. For some podcasters, coffee is their superpower. For others, it can really dry out their mouths. Only you’ll know best what camp you fall into here. In summary, though, a moderate amount of water before and during recording works best for the vast majority of podcasters.
