How it works
From first call to first episode
You always know what is happening now and what comes next.
1. Talk it through
What the show is for, who it is for, and what you want it to do. One conversation, no charge.
2. Build the show
Name, artwork, music, format, hosting and feed. You approve before anything is recorded.
3. Record
In the studio, remote, or both. Our room, our crew, your conversation.
4. Publish and repurpose
Everywhere people listen, plus the clips that bring them there.

Questions
What people ask before they start
Straight answers. Where the honest answer depends on the show, we say so.
What does it cost?
Most shows sit between $1,000 and $5,000 a month, depending on how often you publish and how much repurposing you want. Real Media’s work comes in five parts, and any one of them works on its own. We will tell you where you land on the first call, one conversation at no charge.
How long before the first episode is live?
Four to six weeks from the first call: a fortnight to build the show (name, artwork, music, format, hosting and feed, which you approve before anything is recorded), then recording and the first edit, in Real Media’s Overland Park studio, remotely, or both.
Do I need to come to the studio?
No. Remote guests and remote hosts both work, and many shows mix the two in one episode. Real Media’s studio in Overland Park is multi-camera and treated for sound, and remote guests are captured at studio quality with virtual direction during the session.
Do we own the episodes?
Yes. Your show, your feed, your episodes. If you ever leave, the feed goes with you. Real Media sets up the hosting and RSS feed and publishes each episode to Apple, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon and iHeart, but it is your feed from the first episode.
Do you record video, or audio only?
Both. Real Media records video podcast production in its Overland Park studio on multiple cameras, treated for sound and lit so it looks like television rather than a webcam. Video editing, show notes and quality control come with every episode, plus vertical clips for YouTube, TikTok, Reels and LinkedIn.
What do I actually have to do?
Turn up and have the conversation. Everything before and after it is Real Media’s job: show concept, naming, artwork and music before episode one, then recording, editing, show notes, publishing and clips after each session, in the Overland Park studio or remotely.
How often should we publish?
Every two weeks suits most shows. Weekly works if you can protect the time; monthly tends to lose momentum between episodes. Real Media will tell you honestly which one your calendar can carry. Short clips cut from each episode keep bringing people to the show between releases.
Can you make clips from a show we already have?
Yes. Shorts production works on a back catalogue as well as on new episodes. Real Media selects clips from the full episode and cuts vertical versions for YouTube, TikTok, Reels and LinkedIn, as part of a repurposing plan rather than one-off posts.
What if we have never done this before?
Most clients have not. The first conversation is about what the show is for, not about microphones. Real Media then builds the show with you, from name, artwork, music and format to hosting and the feed, and you approve it before anything is recorded.
