In this show we take the most effective tools from improv performance and behavioural psychology, and apply them directly to your video and audio content. If you’re building a personal brand, B2B show, or a creative new podcast, you know how you say things matters just as much as what you say.
What to expect: Psychology of Presence: Why listeners trust some voices and tune out others (and how to fix “flat” audio). Unscripted Strategy & Exercises: How to speak naturally using tools from improv & behavioural science. Production Strategy: Systems for video podcasting that don’t burn you out.
Host: Jen deHaan is the founder of StereoForest. With a background of over 20 years in tech, education, & instructional design and 10 years in improv and performance, Jen brings systems and scientific approach to media production.
