For guests

Stop pitching cold. Apply where hosts are already asking.

Every guest spot on Roster comes from a host who's actively looking, with the details up front.

Find the right show

Filter by genre, audience and what the host wants.

Each guest call shows the show's genre, how often it publishes, the audience size and exactly what the host is looking for in a guest. You only apply where you fit.

Podcast guesting FAQ

Is it free to apply to a podcast as a guest?

Yes. Browsing and applying are free. A Collab plan adds messaging, connections and the tools for managing your appearances.

Do I need a paid plan to post a guest call for my podcast?

Posting a guest call needs the Host plan ($29/mo), with a 14-day free trial. No credit card is needed to start, and you won't be charged unless you add a payment method.

How do hosts choose guests?

Hosts see every applicant's profile, topic and links in one inbox, then approve, decline with a reason, or invite someone directly.

Does Roster record or publish my episode?

No. Roster helps you find each other and organize the details. The recording and publishing stay with you and the host.

Can I guest on shows outside my niche?

You can apply to any open call. Hosts list their genre and what they want so you can focus on the ones that fit.
