Podcast production
You bring the story and the guests; we make sure it sounds right and reaches your listeners.
A podcast that sounds professional
Recording a podcast looks easy: switch on a microphone and talk. In practice, listeners quickly drop off because of poor sound, long silences or a messy structure. With podcast production by BAARS Media in Tilburg, you get episodes that sound good, have a clear structure and appear on Spotify and other platforms without hassle. Whether it is a corporate podcast, an interview series or your own show.
From recording to release
Recording
We record on location: at your office, at home or wherever suits your podcast. You don't need a studio; we come to you and take care of the room, the microphone set-up and the speakers.
Podcast editing
We cut slips and silences, remove noise, balance the voices and give every episode a tight pace.
Sound design & 3D mix
A recognisable intro, transitions and sound design where it fits. For narrative formats we can also create a 3D or binaural mix for extra depth on headphones.
Music and sound effects
We select or create fitting music and sound effects, with clear agreements on how they may be used.
Distribution
We set up hosting and the RSS feed and get your podcast onto Spotify, Apple Podcasts and other platforms, with titles, descriptions and cover art in order.
Corporate podcast
For organisations that want to reach customers, staff or peers: we help shape the format, the guests and how the podcast fits your communication.
Five steps to your podcast
A fixed process, so you know in advance what to expect and when you will hear from us.
Intake
We discuss your goal, audience, topic and budget. You then receive a proposal with planning and price.
Concept and script
Together we define the format: length, recurring segments, guests and the structure of an episode. Where needed we write a running order or script.
Recording
We record the episodes, watching both content and technique, so you can concentrate on the conversation.
Post-production
Editing, audio processing, music and mix. You receive a first version to review, and we revise it until you are satisfied (fair use).
Delivery and distribution
You receive the final files and we publish the episode on Spotify and other platforms, or deliver everything for your own channel.

Questions about podcast production
How much does podcast production cost?
It depends on the number of episodes, their length, the number of speakers and whether we record on location. Pricing is on request: after the intake you receive a fixed quote.
What do I need to provide myself?
Only a topic, speakers and time for the recording. You don't need to arrange anything else: we record on location and bring the recording equipment. A written script is not required; we decide on the structure together during the intake.
Do you record in a studio or on location?
We record on location, for example at your office or at home, anywhere in the Netherlands. What matters most is a quiet room without much echo; we advise you on this beforehand.
Who owns the rights to the podcast?
You receive the rights to the final product. Details, such as the use of music and sound effects, are agreed in advance in a contract.
Can you edit or mix existing recordings only?
Yes. If you already have recordings, we can take care of just the editing or the mixing.
Do you produce podcasts in English?
Yes. We produce podcasts in Dutch and English.
How does my podcast get onto Spotify and Apple Podcasts?
A podcast is stored with a hosting service that creates an RSS feed. You submit that feed once to Spotify, Apple Podcasts and other platforms; new episodes then appear automatically. We set this up for you and publish the episodes if you wish.
