Podcasting often involves the host sharing personally about themselves – or at least giving the illusion that they’re sharing personally about themselves. This builds connection and relationship with the audience but it also can be really damaging for the host’s psyche as they open themselves up to public reaction, sometimes to very most intimate moments.
