Job description

Freelance Podcast Host

At HelloNation, we are redefining how local stories are told. Through our AI-powered Good News Network, we spotlight the people, businesses, and organizations that make communities stronger. Our content reaches both local and national audiences, and we are growing quickly.

We are looking for a confident, engaging on-camera Freelance Podcast Host to help bring these stories to life.

This is not a traditional podcast role. You will not be booking guests or building episode frameworks from scratch. Instead, you will step into a professionally produced environment where our team handles the logistics, research, and direction, so you can focus on what you do best: delivering exceptional, authentic interviews on camera.

This is a freelance, per-project opportunity. Compensation is $500 per completed podcast episode. This role is on-site in our studio, and selected candidates must be available to travel to our location for podcast filming sessions.
 

What You’ll Do

  • Host On-Camera Interviews

Read scripted episodes from a teleprompter and lead engaging, video-based interviews with small business owners, community leaders, and association representatives.

  • Bring Conversations to Life

Use your presence, tone, and curiosity to create natural, compelling dialogue that resonates with viewers.

  • Execute a Structured Format

Follow pre-developed questions and production guidance while keeping conversations fluid and human.

  • Collaborate with Production

Work alongside our production team during scheduling and filming. They will handle setup, direction, and flow in real time.

  • Represent the Brand

Serve as a polished, professional face of HelloNation across a wide range of industries and communities.

What We’re Looking For

  • On-Camera Experience

Background in podcasting, broadcasting, hosting, interviewing, or video content creation

  • Strong Interview Presence

Ability to make guests feel comfortable while guiding a natural, engaging conversation

  • Professional Communication Skills

Clear, confident delivery with strong listening instincts

  • Adaptability

Comfortable taking direction and adjusting in real time during recordings

  • Energy and Authenticity

A genuine interest in people and their stories comes through on camera

  • Demo Reel Required

Applicants must submit a demo reel showcasing on-camera experience, specifically interviews, hosting, or reporting. This is a key part of the evaluation process.

Additional Qualifications

  • Proven On-Camera Experience

Demonstrated experience hosting, interviewing, or reporting on camera with confidence and professionalism

  • Production & Media Background

Experience in video production, along with a background in TV, radio, journalism, or digital media

  • Understanding of Storytelling Formats

Familiarity with branded content and the ability to deliver structured, engaging narratives within a guided format

If you enjoy being in front of the camera, thrive in dynamic conversations, and want to be part of a fast-growing media platform focused on meaningful, positive storytelling, this is a unique opportunity to step into a high-impact role without the traditional production burden.
