Podcast Studio Cleaning Process To ensure a safe, professional, and welcoming environment, our studio follows a consistent cleaning and reset process after every session. Guests are provided this information for transparency and to understand how we maintain the space. A downloadable PDF of this checklist is also available for reference. Goal: Keep the studio clean, neutral, and fully reset for the next client When: After every session and at end-of-day final check 1️⃣ Basic Clean Clear desks, tables, and surfaces of trash Reset chairs and cameras to default positions (height, spacing, facing cameras/mics) 2️⃣ Desk, Furniture & Surfaces Wipe desks and tables Wipe down chairs and couches Wipe control surfaces (mixer, Stream Deck, keyboard, mouse) Wipe door handles (inside and outside) Wipe light switches 3️⃣ Audio Gear (High-Touch / Critical) Wipe down microphones and cameras (body and grille) with approved disinfectant Wipe headphones (ear cups, headband, cable near jack) and re-hang neatly on hooks/stands Clean camera lenses Coil cables and ensure all mic/camera cables are fully plugged in and tidy Format cameras and power cameras on/off as needed 4️⃣ Final Reset Empty trash bins and replace liners Set LED lights to default or neutral white Reset blinds/curtains to default Return props and decor to their default placement Vacuum or sweep 5️⃣ Double Check Stand at the studio entrance and visually inspect Ensure the studio looks clean, neutral, and untouched No visible cables on the floor No trash, fingerprints, or clutter Confirm the room is quiet and ready Log any issues (broken cable, mic, etc.) This process ensures the studio remains professional, safe, and camera-ready for every guest.
