A podcast name is the listeners first interpretation of one’s work, this is what makes a memorable name so important. A podcast name doesn’t have to relate to the topic of conversation at all as long as it captures the listeners attention and peaks interest -Frank Racioppi, Feb 2025.
After looking at the Spotify podcast charts some Successful podcast names are- Crime Junky, Cents of Humour, Omnishambles. Out of the names I discovered, I favoured the ones which had a connection to the topic of the show. The name New Wave was the one I landed on due to it being, simple and memorable, as well as giving an indication on what the topic will be.
‘New Wave’ has connotations of music with the music genre also called ‘New Wave’. It also links to change with the word ‘New’ witch means “not existing before.”
