​A behind-the-scenes conversation with podcast host Anika Jackson on how she uses AI to automatically vet guests & decides who to book on her show!

​— more details below —

​Most people pitching podcasts have no idea what actually happens after their email lands in a host’s inbox.

​In this live session, Parker Olson (Founder of PodPitch) is joined by Anika Jackson, a podcast host who uses AI to automatically vet incoming guest pitches, everything from filtering, scoring, and prioritizing who actually gets booked.

​We’ll break down:

• ​What Anika’s AI looks for when reviewing guest pitches

• ​How her vetting process mirrors (and improves on) human decision-making

• ​What instantly disqualifies a guest — even if they “look good on paper”

• ​Strategies for pitching podcasts

• ​How Anika integrates PodPitch into her guest booking workflow

​This is a rare look at podcast guesting from the host + AI operator perspective.
