Filler words are unnecessary words or sounds that speakers often use during conversation, such as "um," "uh," "like," and "you know." These words can disrupt the flow of a podcast and detract from the professionalism of the presentation. While they are natural in everyday speech, excessive use of filler words can make the content less engaging.
Editing out filler words is a common practice in podcast production to create a more polished and smooth listening experience. Podcasters can also work on reducing their use of filler words through practice and by becoming more comfortable with pauses and silence during recording.
