Solo Podcast Interview Format: How to Interview Yourself
Talking to yourself doesn't create content people want to watch
Even if you know your topic deeply, delivering it alone on camera often feels forced and unnatural.
Without someone to ask follow-up questions, you can't dig into the interesting angles. You can't react to curiosity or challenge your own assumptions.
The result is content that feels rehearsed or rambling—never quite landing the conversational quality that keeps people watching.
Why the usual approaches fail
Static prompts don't adapt
A list of questions can't respond to what you actually say. They don't dig deeper or change direction based on your answers.
Talking to yourself has no feedback loop
Your brain needs conversational cues—questions, acknowledgments, follow-ups—to maintain natural delivery.
Video editing can't fix structural problems
You can cut out rambling, but you can't edit in the conversational rhythm that should have been there from the start.
What makes interviews work: The feedback loop
Good interviews don't follow a script—they follow a structure created by real-time response.
Each answer leads to a new question. Each question sharpens the next response. This loop is what makes content feel alive.
When you record solo, this loop is missing. Olyetta restores it.
