    The Best Podcasts with Transcripts

    Want to increase your audience for your podcast?

    Here’s how: provide a transcript.

    With millions of deaf and hard of hearing people out there–you’ll reach an untapped market if you provide access to your audio material. Transcripts also impact SEO–making your website more attractive in searches.

    Here are some popular podcasts which provide transcripts:

    Smart Passive Income with Pat Flynn

    Pat was one of the early leaders with transcripts. He covers a variety of topics with well-known leaders in social media.


    The School of Greatness with Lewis Howes

    Lewis has recently added transcripts to his newer podcasts. Lewis interviews a variety of people on the topics of self-improvement, mind mastery, and business. Lewis also provides interpreters for his events.

     


    Eventual Millionaire with Jaime Masters

    Jaime Masters has been providing transcripts for awhile now–she was one of the early leaders. Jaime attended Rochester Institute of Technology, which has over a thousand deaf and hard of hearing students so she knows the impact of providing access. Jaime interviews various millionaires and shows ways you can create your first million.


    The Miracle Morning with Hal Elrod

    I had the opportunity to met Hal at a Passion Summit–he’s the real deal. Friendly and open, he genuinely wants to help you succeed. Hal’s interviews cover a variety of topics, from self-help to personal stories.


    This is Your Life with Michael Hyatt

    I met Michael Hyatt while visiting Dave Ramsey at Financial Peace University. Michael is another early adopter–he was providing transcripts from the beginning of his podcasts. Michael covers topics such as leadership, running a small business, and marriage.


    The Mindvalley Podcast with Vishen Lakhiani  

    I stumbled upon this podcast through a Facebook post and when I went searching for transcripts, I found them in just seventeen of their podcasts. The interviews are worth it. Check them out. Then let them know you want more transcripts!


     

    TED Radio Hour Podcast with Guy Raz

    If you love TED Talks, you’ll love the TED Radio Hour. The topics are deep and the people are profound.


    The Tim Ferriss Show

    Not every show has a transcript, but I’ve included the link to all the ones that do. Tim Ferriss is the master of the Four-Hour Work Week. Every possible topic is found on this show and if you’re an entrepreneur, this is a must read.

    The Best Podcasts With Transcripts

    There’s nothing more frustrating to a deaf person than seeing what looks like an awesome podcast–and no way to access it. As a deaf person, I obviously can’t listen to podcasts, but because podcasts are one of the best ways to learn new things and meet new people, I truly appreciate those that come with complete transcripts.

    I have found that people with normal hearing also appreciate transcripts, for if they are short on time, they will look through a transcript before committing their time to listen to the full podcast.

    Another big advantage for podcasts that have transcripts: transcripts show up in web searches.

    Over the last several years, I’ve been “listening” to podcasts via transcripts. Here are some of the best:

    Jaime Masters interviews millionaires to discover their secrets and how they rose to the top.

    Pat Flynn, Smart Passive Income

    Tim is known as the “Four Hour Work Week” guy. To get the transcripts, you do have to trade in your email address to access them.
