# List guests a podcast could plausibly book

> Returns people who have guested on the podcast's related shows but never on this one, ranked by how related those venues are and how established the person is on them — a booking pipeline, not a prediction. Guests who appear everywhere (circuit regulars) are excluded, since recommending them says nothing about this show. Each row carries the person, a score, a band, how many related shows booked them, and with include=via which shows. For the show's existing roster use GET /v1/podcasts/{id}/guests; for shows like this one use GET /v1/podcasts/{id}/related.
