]]> Mission Based Media producer@healthpodcast.org Ep15: Why Your Podcast Is the Ultimate Business Development and Content Marketing Engine What if your podcast could create 52 high-value conversations each year with people who would never take your sales call? Greg Wasserman, Head of Relationships at RSS.com, argues that healthcare organizations need to stop chasing downloads and start building relationships through podcasting. Drawing from his experience across media sales and podcast hosting, Greg reveals that the real value isn't sponsorship revenue—it's transforming cold prospects into warm connections through the power of being a podcast host. He challenges healthcare professionals to shift from "give me your attention" content to "take me with you" audio that fits into busy lives, emphasizing that smart packaging and compelling titles matter more than expensive studio equipment. With 30% of podcast listening happening outside Apple and Spotify, Greg advocates for broad distribution strategies that prioritize relationship-building over vanity metrics.

Jessie Cohen and Melanie Douglass from Children's Hospital Colorado did exactly that, building a homegrown podcast experiment into a show with over 2 million downloads across 187 countries. Now operating from a dedicated studio, they reach primary care providers across their seven-state region and beyond by applying journalistic storytelling techniques that create deeper trust and engagement than traditional medical education formats.

Sejal reveals how she convinced skeptical stakeholders to invest in untested audio content for HCPs, while Dan explains the strategic advantage of capturing thought leaders at conferences where they're already gathered.

]]> 3002 no Ep11: How Can Podcasts Work for Doctors (and Other HCPs) How do physicians cut through 2 million annual medical publications to stay current? Dr. Hansa Bhargava, Chief Clinical Strategy and Innovation Officer at Healio, has the answer: podcasts that transform medical education for time-strapped doctors who can learn while commuting or exercising. With over 11 years of clinical practice before transitioning to medical media, Dr. Bhargava hosts "Physicianary," an Apex Award-winning podcast that's part of Healio's multimodal strategy to reach busy healthcare providers. But she's also navigating critical challenges—from balancing AI-generated content with trust and authenticity in an era of voice cloning, to competing with platforms like TikTok where 30% of people under 30 get their health information. In this session, Dr. Bhargava explores how conversational podcasts provide essential human connection in an increasingly isolated digital world and offer an antidote to doom scrolling through purposeful audio consumption.

]]> 1869 no Ep08: Why Healthcare Needs to Stop Waiting and Start Podcasting Healthcare finally has a level playing field in podcasting, but most organizations are still sitting on the sidelines. Bryan Barletta, newly appointed President of the combined Sounds Profitable and Podcast Movement organization, reveals why waiting for other industries to perfect the model is the wrong strategy. His key insight shifts how you measure success: treat podcasting as the "deepest aspect of your funnel" for true ROI. Bryan settles the video-versus-audio debate with one example. Taylor Swift called a YouTube livestream a podcast and audiences agreed with her. The format doesn't matter anymore. His research uncovers a massive opportunity: 40% of people who've ever listened to podcasts aren't monthly consumers yet. Learn why taking calculated risks in podcasting actually matters now and how to structure your strategy around funnel depth instead of vanity metrics. This episode features a recording from the 2025 Health Podcast Summit.

Brinleigh Murphy-Reuter, CEO and Founder of Science To People, reveals how to use AI for health content without sacrificing accuracy. She built purpose-built AI that translates peer-reviewed science into creator-friendly content while matching each creator's unique voice and tone. A Harvard study showed her the opportunity. TikTok influencers who received evidence-based toolkits gained 500,000 additional views. Brinleigh shares how she created a "can opener for science communication" that pulls from curated academic sources instead of generic AI training data. Learn how to flip traditional public health communication from push to pull. Creators can generate accurate health content in their authentic voice without waiting for PDFs from health organizations.

]]> 2073 no Ep06: How Niche Audiences Win in Health Podcasting Why does reaching the right 200 healthcare leaders beat reaching 200,000 random listeners? James Cridland, Editor of Podnews and veteran BBC radio journalist, calls it the "niche paradox." Healthcare podcasts win by super-serving specific patient populations instead of chasing mass audiences. James draws from 773 million weekly hours of U.S. podcast consumption data. Specialized medical content beats broad wellness topics every time. His philosophy is simple: podcasts are "something for your ears when your eyes are busy." His own Podnews Weekly Review proves the model works. The show gets modest downloads but reaches exactly the right senior industry leaders. Great audio works while listeners drive, exercise, or multitask. That makes it perfect for time-poor healthcare professionals and patients seeking information during their daily routines.

]]> 2109 no Ep05: How Can Healthcare Brands Build Authority Through Audio? When BetterHelp started testing podcast ads in 2017, they discovered something unexpected: listeners actually felt grateful for their sponsorship messages. Five years and 5 million users later, the world's largest online therapy platform made the leap from advertiser to content creator with "Mind If We Talk," filling a critical gap by combining raw personal stories with clinical feedback in single episodes. Brittany Clevenger, Senior Director of Growth Marketing at BetterHelp, and Emily Rudder, VP of Acast Creative Studios, reveal how their health podcast now averages over 75,000 downloads per episode and earned a Signal Award nomination. They share why audio tactics converted more listeners than Instagram ever could, why masculinity emerged as one of the most searched mental health topics, and why healthcare brands need testing mindsets over perfect plans.

]]> 3049 no Ep04: How to Earn Attention in Healthcare with Audio-Forward Content What if healthcare's biggest marketing problem isn't budget or distribution, but a fundamental refusal to earn attention? Steve Pratt, author of "Earn It: Unconventional Strategies for Brave Marketers," reveals how healthcare organizations must abandon interruption-based marketing and embrace creative bravery (making content worth recommending even if you weren't involved) to compete with misinformation. Drawing from years helping major brands create successful health podcasts, Steve demonstrates why exceptional episodes beat constant mediocre content and why marketing deserves equal resources to production. He challenges healthcare communicators to use the same storytelling techniques that make misinformation compelling, arguing that storytelling is "the sugar that makes the medicine go down."
