When citing podcast interviews in an EB-1 petition, the goal is to allow anyone to locate and verify your participation. To that end, record the identifying details of each episode in an organized way.

A clear citation typically includes:

  • The name of the podcast and, if available, the host or the outlet that produces it.
  • The title or topic of the episode in which you participated.
  • When the interview was recorded or published.
  • The link or access method to the recording.

Beyond the reference itself, explain the context: why that podcast matters in your field, what its reach is, and what your participation demonstrates about your recognition in the area. This helps the adjudicator understand the weight of the evidence.

Keep everything consistent and verifiable and, if you are unsure how to present the material, check the current guidelines at the official source (USCIS) or consult a specialist.
