I forgot to mention that it was just audio! With video, it was even harder and I never ended up releasing anything further.

Audio only is a lot easier IMO. For one thing, you're not also dealing with waving your hands around so much and thinking about where your eyes are focused. And you can't as easily refer to at least a semi-script. I learned to create videos but podcasts were definitely easier.

(I'm fine being on video but recording yourself feels a lot harder for me.)
