I've been trying to work through this. This thread about anonymous podcasting gets most of the way there but what about potential issues with voice recording? Is a there a voice changer that's good enough? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21482899

1. Follow all the technical and payment processing advice in that thread.

2. Mask your voice, change your vocabulary, don't talk about yourself or any other identifiable individuals.

3. Point 2 especially will ensure that no one ever listens to your podcast which provides the highest possible level of anonymity.

Who's your adversary? Do you need to protect against your little brother, your boss, or Mossad finding out it's you?

In addition to the voice, do not forget to change your vocabulary and usage of certain phrases, words, and mannerisms.

Yeah I thought of this. I feel like it's impossible. But so is changing your writing enough to be non identifiable probably (for anonymous blogging).

Launch it, but don’t tell anyone else about it. Ever.
