Finding the right music for your podcast is crucial for setting the tone and enhancing the listener's experience. It can elevate your intros, outros, and transitions, adding a layer of emotion that resonates with your audience. However, you can't just pick any popular song you love; you need to use royalty-free music to avoid legal issues. Options like Audio Jungle and Soundstripe can provide you with quality tracks, while free resources such as the YouTube Audio Library and Free Music Archive are also available. Remember to carefully consider your podcast's vibe and use music that complements it, ensuring a balanced sound that enhances rather than distracts from your message.

Takeaways:

• Choosing the right music can elevate the emotional tone of your podcast significantly.
• Using royalty-free music is essential to avoid copyright issues and legal troubles.
• Consider the vibe of your podcast when selecting music to match your content.
• Platforms like Soundstripe and Audio Jungle offer great options for purchasing music legally.
• Using music in small chunks ensures it complements your voice without overwhelming listeners.
• Free resources like the YouTube audio library and Public Domain music can be valuable for budget-conscious creators.

If you’ve been recording Facebook Lives for years, you’ve likely built up a treasure trove of content just waiting to be shared with an even wider audience. Why not download the audio from your FB lives and turn them into podcast episodes?

Here are some tips to make your FB Lives podcast-ready:

• Add a simple intro and outro explaining that the episode was previously recorded on Facebook Live.
• Consider hiring an editor (like our team) or using tools like Descript to fine-tune your audio.
• Be mindful of guests or participants—always get permission before sharing their comments in a public forum.
• Encourage your listeners to join your next live recording for real-time interaction.

For future FB Lives:

• Invest in a good microphone and headphones to ensure your audio sounds professional.
