Three things that make a good episode a great one
The interview is recorded on video and cut into clips, so how you look and sound matters as much as what you say.
Close the door, silence your phone and notifications, and turn off fans or air conditioning if you can. A headset or external microphone beats a laptop mic every time.
An office, bookshelf or plain wall works well. Avoid virtual backgrounds, clutter and anything moving behind you. Put the camera at eye level.
Face a window or a lamp so the light is on you, not behind you. No bright windows or lights in the frame behind your head.
