Not Every Podcast Is The Same
While the above list are items you could (should?) do for each episode, everyone has different priorities and time limits.
Not Every Person is the Same
If you love podcasting but hate the act of podcasting (see the list above), then maybe you should outsource some of those tasks (especially those items you hate to do). You can expect to pay $100-200 per episode (30 minutes), which is quite expensive for a podcaster not making a dime from their efforts (Depending on your budget). But if you think about spending more time with your kids and parents or just maintaining your sanity, it may be worth the cost.
