Podcasters looking to maximise their presence on YouTube should mark their calendars for the event “YouTube Audits My Podcast,” hosted by Pod the North in collaboration with YouTube Canada.
Scheduled for Wednesday, 26 November 26, 2025 at 7:30 p.m. CST (5:30 pm GMT‑8), this virtual session offers a unique opportunity to watch a live audit of a real podcast channel.
The format is straightforward but powerful: the hosts will walk through the do’s and don’ts of publishing podcast episodes on YouTube, using insights gleaned from analysing the flagship podcast of Pod the North, “Canardian.”
Attendees will see how packaging (titles, thumbnails), channel strategy, analytics, audio‑only episodes on YouTube and other elements stack up in a real‑world audit.
Why this matters

The “live audit” format adds transparency and demonstrates actionable tactics in real time — a helpful learning format for creators.
