Entrevistando convidados de podcast: como obter conteúdo envolvente

Great work on this, TT. I can tell you’ve put a lot of thought into this conversation and it seems like a topic that is important to you. I think this will be a great interview with some tightened questions and some more follow-ups.I think your primary objective is more than “addressing”. I think you are trying to educate your listeners about the issue of the overpriced real estate problem and offer them Prince Eddy’s suggested solution. Remember to keep coming back to this goal as you tweak and add questions. BACKGROUND SECTION Prince Eddy has a very interesting background that will be entertaining to your listeners. Bring out those details. Also, let’s establish why he is an authority on this subject. Why should we listen to him? What's his education? Who were his mentors? Where did he work? How did he learn real estate?Your first question is a great hook! And I agree, it can immediately open up some broad conversation. Consider making it shorter and punchy – “Who is the Oracle of Lagos?” or “What is the Oracle of Lagos?” I bet this will grab your audience’s attention.Instead of “How long have you been developing for?”, try “How did you start in land development?" If he doesn’t talk about the dates or how long, you can follow up. This question will give him a little more to talk about.I really like your “driving force” question. Good job thinking about where you want the conversation to go and asking a question to move you in that direction. SUBSTANTIVE SECTION You’re clearly smart and knowledgeable. But let’s make your questions simple and keep the attention on your guest. First question, try to get right to it in basic simple language – “Why are home prices so expensive in Lagos?” You have some good ideas for follow-up questions. Right them all out. Even if you don’t use them all, it will help you think through the conversation and give you questions to choose from during the interview. “How are you trying to solve this problem? In what way are you contributing?” Great questions! Consider asking “why” he is helping at all if it hasn’t come out already. Why is this important to him?I’m sure he does know about multi-family homes. Maybe ask him to first explain the concept of multi-family homes to your audience. Then follow up with your questions about why they don’t exist in Lagos and if they could work.Asking about public-private partnership and government involvement are good follow-up questions. Start first by asking more generally “You’re only one person, and you’re certainly doing a lot, but what are some ways that we could get broad meaningful change in the region?” Then go into your partnerships, government, etc if he hasn’t gone into it.CONCLUSION I like what you have here. See if you can make this section a little more casual and conversational and less formal.Here are some other question ideas: What do you wish our policy and lawmakers would do to help? Tell us about the current supply and demand of housing? Is there enough housing? Does other local infrastructure affect the cost of housing?Have you seen this video? Maybe there are some more question ideas here. <a href="https://youtu.be/jzr0PfcmATI?si=x5twtbCoDo0okXyX" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">youtu.be/jzr0PfcmATI?si=x5twtbCoDo0okXyX</a> He mentions affordable luxury and locally sourced materials.Again, great job! I hope all goes well!

PODCAST INTERVIEW WITH PRINCE EDDY 
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: ADDRESSING THE ISSUE OF HIGH PROPERTY PRICES, GETTING HIS PERSPECTIVES AND SUGGESTING WAYS TO MAKE HOME OWNERSHIP MORE ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYONE. 
The podcast will be broken down into 3 sections; Background section, Substantive section and Concluding section. 
1. Background: Introducing the guest, the podcast and the purpose of the podcast.
I’m going to lean into the interview by asking the following questions. 
<ul>
<li>
Your Instagram handle is Oracle of Lagos. Where did that come from? (This will help get him comfortable and talk a little bit about himself) 
</li>
<li>
 How long have you been developing for? (This is to establish his authority as someone with experience in the sector) 
</li>
<li>
What was the driving force behind your decision to become a developer? Did you come in to solve a problem or was it a purely financial decision? (My goal here is to get him to go with problem solving or at least admit that there is indeed a problem in the real estate industry particularly in Lagos, so I can ask some follow up questions) 
This last question will then lead into the SUBSTANTIVE SECTION which is the main section of the interview. 
</li>
<li>
One of the biggest challenges with home ownership particularly in Lagos is that property prices are not within reach of most middle income earners? What informs these steep prices? (At this point he’s probably going to talk about land prices, rising cost of materials etc...this would give me a chance to ask some follow-up questions like why don’t they consider building in other parts of Lagos like the mainland, After Ajah where the cost of building won’t be so high etc) 
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>
As a problem solver, we’ve identified a problem “Many people can’t afford these houses” How are you trying to solve this problem? In what way are you contributing? 
</li>
<li>
I’m a single man... I don’t need a 5 bedroom with 3 storeys and a cinema. It’s too big and it’s too expensive. I’d be very happy with a studio apartment or a one bed...but Not many people are building that. Why the concentration on a certain kind of construction? Why is nobody looking into affordable homes for middle income earners? 
</li>
<li>
Do you know about multi-family homes? They’re very similar to the shared apartments that we have here. Do you think something like that could work here? 
</li>
<li>
  I understand that as a private individual, there’s only so much that you can do. Would a public-private partnership between developers and government help bridge some of these gaps? (I would then follow up with in what ways? Just so he can give a bit more detail) 
The CONCLUDING section 
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>
●  If there was anything you could change about the real estate market, what 
would it be? 
</li>
<li>
●  I’m going to give you the opportunity to address our audience and speak to some of these issues we’ve raised today. 
</li>
<li>
●  Conclude the interview, Thank my guest and the audience. Sign out 
</li>
</ul>
