As creators, we’re living in a time where artificial intelligence is no longer just a tool for tech experts—it’s a powerful assistant in the world of podcasting and media production. But as with any emerging technology, there are boundaries and best practices to navigate.
At Silver Foxx Media and Hope Amplified, we empower storytellers to embrace innovation without compromising authenticity or excellence. That’s why we created a concise, free guide titled:
Whether you're launching your first show or leading a cohort of new podcasters, this quick reference sheet helps you avoid common mistakes—especially those that can interfere with syndication to platforms like Audible, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.
What You’ll Learn in the Guide
How to use tools like NotebookLM and ChatGPT during pre-production

How to blend AI efficiency with authentic storytelling
Best practices that keep your content professional and platform-ready
AI Voices Are Not Yet Syndication-Approved
Some podcast and audiobook platforms, including Audible, do not currently accept AI-narrated content. Using synthetic voices could result in your content being flagged, rejected, or overlooked entirely.
Artificial intelligence is a powerful tool, but it should support your voice—not replace it.
Use AI Before the Mic, Not Instead of the Mic
AI tools can help you organize ideas, generate interview questions, summarize content, and streamline research. But when it’s time to record, your voice—and your connection to the audience—remains essential.
Listeners connect with real people, not robots. Your voice is part of your message.

At Silver Foxx Media and Hope Amplified, we train content creators, faith leaders, and media professionals to responsibly use AI tools. This guide is part of our approach to building confident, skilled podcast hosts and producers.
