The Current runs an interview format. Signals we read: interview language in episodes; interview framing in show description. Pitch a specific episode idea rather than a description of yourself, reference an episode you have actually heard, and lead with one checkable proof point. Shows at this cadence typically book two to six weeks out.
Convokast is an independent podcast booking agency. We pitch founders to shows like The Current, and you approve every show first.
