Thank you for your interest in being a guest on Dear Nina: Conversations About Friendship?

#1. BEFORE SENDING AN EMAIL, please read below:

The best way to get a sense of the format of Dear Nina is to listen to a few episodes. I can’t accept all pitches for issues of fit, repetition, schedule, or recording breaks, but I’d love to consider your idea.

In most cases, the guest and I dive into a very specific friendship dilemma loosely related to the guest’s personal story, book, article, platform, etc. But please note: I do not record formal interviews of authors about the whole book or about the writing process. I always mention the book, article, social media accounts, business, and so on; and I include all of that information in the show notes, but the episode cannot be about the book the way it might be in a book podcast.

For an idea of what I’ve already covered and how niche the topics are, please see a list of past episodes here.

#2. Email time!

If you read #1, please send an email to ninabadzin@gmail.com describing your episode idea. The most successful pitches also include title options. You can see past episodes titles here.

I also did an entire Substack newsletter post with an example of a successful pitch.

Thanks again for your interest! ~ Nina
