I expect (and want) to go solo early on. No guests, etc. No partner. I also expect the early ones to be awful. I'll need tons of episodes to acclimate myself, get used to talking to "nobody" etc. It'll be practice and therapy for me.

If I'm recording video too...any specific angle that would work better than other camera angles when doing it alone?

There will be tons of umms and long pauses and losing my train of thought and jumbled inchorent sentences. Do I just edit this out? Won't the video be obviously jumpy or heavily edited? Leave them in for transparency since nobody will be watching anyway?

I've always done things by jumping in and making tons of mistakes so I expect this to be the same.

It is weird to me to talk to no one, especially on a camera but I'm guessing I'll get used to it. (I do want guests etc...but I kind of want to find my own voice and groove and get used to the technical side also before I include that)

Any other advice for solo podcasting?
