 only one answer to this question -- don't share your shows...with  anyone

 ...or do a better job mastering in the first place.

 Bingo.  That's why I started sampling in 5.6Mhz 1-bit DSD, downsampling to 96Khz, 32-bit float, and doing all of the processing in 32-bit float.  This eliminates the requantization errors.  Once you're done with the project, downsample to the appropriate frequency and integer bit rate -- and you've created the best sounding outcome possible.
I only perform peak normalization -- which always preserves dynamic range and never applies compression.
