# Podcasting Pre-recording Checklist | ||

- ICE: In Case of an Emergency, have a plan to get reconnected. Its best to get connected via a quick and reliable IM platform like iMessage | ||
- Define Intros - Define the introduction for each host (e.g., "Our first host is Garric Nahapetian. Garric is an iOS Enginner at Tinder as well as the founder of Learn Swift City.") | ||
- Define Audience - Ensure each host knows who the target audience is for the episode | ||

## Last Call | ||
- Allow each host one last chance to use the restroom or get a drink of water | ||
- Ask each host to turn their electronics on airplane and or slient mode and the computer they are using to record on do not disturb | ||
- Ensure that any phone or cellular device including Apple Watches are either on airplace mode or away from microphones | ||
- Remind each host that Its just a conversation, no need to apologize | ||
- Remind each host to not use curse words | ||
|
||
## Hit Record | ||
- Check everyones inputs one more time to ensure correctness | ||
- Hit record and triple check to make sure that you are actually recording | ||
- Record at least ten seconds of pre roll with no talking in order to use sound profile to de-noise audio tracks via Audacity |
