Podcasts are getting very popular nowadays. It is a great format to gain popularity quickly, as podcasts tend to go viral even on small topics. People use short highlights from the podcasts to create hype and circulate it everywhere. While it is a great idea, it is certainly not easy to create a podcast. Even after coming up with the idea, getting the speakers, and shooting the content, the editing takes the longest! 

Are you one of those editors who is dreading editing their podcast on Adobe Premiere Pro? It can take hours to turn the rough cut into a polished final draft. There are a lot of things to look at. You cannot have pauses or long silences in the video. It has to be continuous and exciting. It requires a lot of cuts, and it would be difficult to make all these edits in Premiere Pro manually.
