If you’ve ever felt intimidated by classic literature or wondered how to make old books relevant to your busy, creative life, this episode is for you.

Join me as I welcome Heather Ordover, founder and host of Craftlet, a pioneering literature and craft podcast with over 20 years of longevity. Heather Ordover shares how her love for books and crafts helped her—and her students—heal and connect after moments of crisis, and how she’s built a welcoming, curiosity-driven community for listeners who craft, scientists, and anyone feeling disconnected from classic stories.

The heart of this episode centers on embracing classic literature without gatekeeping, using audiobook narration and thoughtful explanations to make books like Moby Dick, Jane Eyre, and Wuthering Heights accessible, enjoyable, and sometimes downright funny. Heather Ordover breaks down how her approach links cognitive anchoring (repetitive crafts) to learning, and reveals the surprising ways that public domain works and modern technology intersect in Craftlet’s evolving format—now including video and community-sourced content.

Additional topics include the evolution of podcast monetization, the transition from audio to video, how podcasting can nurture lifelong learning, and a nerdy deep-dive into typewriter restoration, AI tools, and the science behind keeping listeners engaged. Harry Duran and Heather Ordover also riff on the podcast’s ever-widening audience, from knitters to scientists doing pipette work, and share actionable tips for making the classics part of your daily life.

Curious about how to bridge crafts and classics—or simply want to finally “get” Moby Dick? Click to listen, laugh, and rethink your relationship with literature, podcasts, and creativity!

Key Takeaways1. Niche Podcasting Drives Sponsorship Success

Harry Duran emphasized how choosing a highly focused niche for his Vertical Farming Podcast enabled him to secure substantial sponsorships—even before releasing a single episode 02:15. By aligning content with an emerging industry and pricing sponsorship against conference spending, podcasters can create compelling value propositions for sponsors.

1. Cognitive Anchoring Enhances Listening Retention

Heather Ordover discussed how repetitive hand activities like knitting or crocheting can improve listeners’ retention and focus on podcast content 15:05. Podcasters targeting audiences engaged in such tasks may wish to tailor material and marketing to these “captive audience” moments.

1. Structured Content and Membership Models

After experimenting, Heather Ordover found that structuring each episode into four stable blocks (personal update, craft discussion, book talk, audiobook, and final notes) provided a consistent format that supports listener engagement 22:32. She also leveraged paid premium feeds and apps for additional revenue, showing the importance of diversified content and monetization strategies.

1. Leveraging Technology for Production and Engagement

Both Harry Duran and Heather Ordover highlighted advancements in podcast technology—video, Descript, Final Cut, and agent-driven AI tools—that have transformed both production efficiency and audience connection 30:11, 33:01. Staying current with tech and delegating tasks (like video editing) can streamline workflows and improve episode quality.

1. Know and Serve Diverse Audience Groups

Heather Ordover identified three key listener types for Craftlit: book lovers, intimidated book lovers or first-timers, and scientists/math folks seeking context while doing manual/analytical work 46:14. Understanding these segments has shaped marketing, content, and audience engagement strategies, demonstrating the importance of surveying and directly addressing the unique needs of each listener group.

Tweetable Quotes

"When you do something repetitive with your hands, whether it's doodling, knitting, or crocheting, your brain has a lot of bandwidth. Listening takes up a small amount, so the rest of your mind starts making lists or thinking about what you forgot yesterday. But if that leftover bandwidth is taken up by something automatic, you can actually pay attention and remember what you're hearing."

"I have about 5,000 people who've been with me for 20 years. There is no gatekeeper here. I don't think you're stupid if you haven't read the book—I'm excited because now I get to share it with you."

"It's not waffling if you say, I just learned something new and now I have to recalibrate. That's just smart."

Key TakeawaysEmbrace Change and Agility in Business

Jodi Katz emphasizes the absolute necessity of being able to pivot and remain agile. Staying ahead of the trends and proactively evolving your processes, services, and expertise is vital—if you sit still, your business becomes stagnant.

Build a Podcast Format That Works For You

The evolution of Jodi Katz's podcast—from remote recordings, to studio sessions, to live "listening party" events—demonstrates the value of experimenting with formats. Find the setup that brings you joy, engages your audience, and matches your strengths.

Leverage Your Podcast as a Relationship and Learning Tool

Jodi Katz uses her show as “free business coaching and free therapy,” focusing on genuine, one-on-one conversations. Use your platform not just to educate others, but to learn, build connections, and grow yourself.

Know Your Audience and Target Guests Beyond the Usual Suspects

From the outset, Jodi Katz chose to spotlight not just celebrities and figureheads but also behind-the-scenes experts and lesser-known industry contributors. This approach gives voice to a wider community and builds more authentic relationships.

Prioritize Preparation and Self-Care for High-Performance Days

When hosting back-to-back live podcast recordings, Jodi Katz recommends explicit self-care strategies: prep healthy snacks and drinks, hydrate, get solid rest, and build in reset moments between sessions. This prevents burnout and keeps your energy consistent for both yourself and your audience.

Tweetable Quotes

"We build belief systems for our clients so that this community of fans has something to grab on to. They're part of the culture too. We do that with value and velocity, because everything has to happen so fast."

"In my podcast, I get to be me. I am just myself. The way I am with you is the way I am at CVS, and I just want to be me in my day job too."

"My superpower is listening so closely that it makes the conversation feel complete. I want to make sure that my listeners close the loop, that the questions inspired get answers."

Ever wonder if building wealth, balancing family, and launching your dream business is really possible—or just a myth? I’ve asked myself the same thing, and this episode brings the answers you need.

Join me as I sit down with Wendy Papasan—team leader, real estate investor, philanthropist, and host of the Empire Building podcast. Wendy is a powerhouse in the real estate world with years of experience building successful businesses while staying grounded in her family and personal growth. She’s a sought-after mentor for women in business and is celebrated for her practical, empowering leadership style.

In this episode, we dig into the journey from Wendy’s entrepreneurial roots—starting with her first high school business—to building a real estate empire (that started with a $50K flip and grew to 19 doors and 2,500 families served!). Wendy unpacks how developing the right habits, from net-worth tracking to prioritizing date nights, enabled her and her husband, Jay, to reach millionaire status in just six years. You'll hear candid insights on failure, recalibrating goals, and why living below your means trumps chasing big paychecks.

But that’s not all—Wendy also shares her experiences launching two podcasts (and why she wishes she stuck with the first one!), creating strong business boundaries in her marriage, leading a team of female entrepreneurs, and harnessing the power of focus thanks to lessons from “The ONE Thing.” She opens up about the often-overlooked bravery behind entrepreneurship, the underestimated power of compounding effort, and finding fulfillment through giving back and coaching others.

Ready for actionable inspiration, honest advice, and a dash of real talk about life and business? Press play and learn how to build your own empire—without losing your sanity or your sense of humor. Tune in now!

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

Key TakeawaysTrack Your Net Worth Monthly

Wendy emphasizes the importance of tracking net worth regularly, not just focusing on income. This habit helps keep you aware of your financial progress and encourages smarter asset-building, rather than simply increasing earnings and spending.

Live Below Your Means and Invest the Surplus

Consistently living below your means allowed Wendy and her husband to invest extra income into growing their real estate portfolio. She recommends prioritizing investments over lifestyle inflation to build sustainable wealth.

Failures Are Learning Opportunities, Not End Points

When Wendy’s first house flip was unsuccessful, she didn’t give up. Instead, she viewed the experience as a valuable lesson and pivoted to buy-and-hold strategies. The key is to see setbacks as a way to learn and improve.

Compounding Habits Lead to Big Results Over Time

Success is a result of repeatable activities done over time. Wendy highlights how tracking net worth, investing, giving, and prioritizing relationships all compounded to create her family’s empire, stressing the power of habits and patience.

Set Specific Goals and Revisit Them Together

Wendy and her husband committed early on to becoming millionaires by tracking progress as a couple and setting intention-driven goals. Their practice of annual goal-setting getaways kept them aligned and moving forward together—showing the value of planning and partnership.

Tweetable Quotes

"Success is repeatable activities done over time. Everything compounds—it’s amazing how wealth compounds, how working out compounds, how investing in yourself compounds."

"I've always had the mindset that you fail your way to success. For me, a failure looks more like a learning experience, a learning opportunity."

"A lot of people think being brave is the absence of fear, but being brave is really about the fear always being there, and you're just doing it anyway. The more hard things you do, the better you get at doing hard things."

Ever wondered how to balance your passion for work with your personal life—especially when your business partner is also your spouse?

This week on Podcast Junkies, I’m joined by Gaby Proctor, host of Real Estate Talks and seasoned real estate expert, who offers a candid look into her journey from corporate marketing to thriving real estate entrepreneur in Austin. With over fifteen years in media and more than a decade in real estate, Gaby specializes in helping first-time buyers, investors, and the Hispanic community navigate the U.S. property market.

We dive deep into the unique challenges (and rewards) of running a business with your spouse, how to maintain healthy boundaries between home and work, and strategies for leveraging your marketing background to stand out in a crowded field. Gaby also shares her experiences creating a bilingual real estate podcast, building authentic community, and the power of niching down in a saturated industry.

Plus, we explore additional insights from Gaby’s time at longevity and wellness events, the value of staying adaptable in your business journey, and practical advice for podcasting—like building an email list, engaging listeners, and protecting yourself from social media uncertainty.

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

Key TakeawaysLeverage Niche Podcasting to Stand Out

Gaby Proctor shared how creating a podcast specifically about real estate in Spanish for the United States helped her fill a unique gap in the market. Starting with a niche keeps your target audience focused and makes your content easier to find for those seeking that specific info.

Build Community and Audience Engagement Beyond Downloads

Harry Duran encouraged offering value through easy-to-access downloads, inviting your audience onto your email list, and hosting virtual meetups like “Happy Hour with Gabby.” Cultivating a community around your podcast builds loyalty and direct relationships outside of social platforms.

Collaborate and Partner to Sustain Long-Term Projects

Gaby Proctor emphasized the benefit of teaming up with a co-host for accountability and support. When motivation dips, having a collaborator helps you push through lulls and stay consistent.

Get Feedback and Learn About Your Audience’s Needs

Proactively ask listeners for feedback and guidance on topics they’re seeking, as suggested by both speakers. However, Harry Duran recommended actionable ways to tailor your episodes—like using outcome-based episode titles, related downloadable resources, and email sequences—to better understand and serve your listeners.

Don’t Build Your Business Solely on Rented Platforms

After Gaby Proctor lost access to her social media accounts, the conversation highlighted the importance of diversifying your online presence. Focus on building your own channels, such as an email list or website, since you truly own your audience there and aren’t subject to the whims of platform algorithms or policies.

Tweetable Quotes

"I love learning about how to grow spiritually, intellectually, or by taking care of your health. I really liked the concept of longevity at the event—it’s not just about living longer but improving every aspect of your life: business, health, relationships, work."

"I realized I was in marketing because I was helping clients promote their business with different ideas, packages, and strategies. I thought all that time I was in sales until I moved to real estate and saw the importance of marketing myself and sharing helpful information so people know why they want to work with us."

"I have a duty to share as much legitimate information as I can because there are a lot of scams out there. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. We’re very honest with the audience; not everything is butterflies and rainbows, and bad things can happen in real estate, too."

Ever feel like the future of your job or business could be snatched away by AI before you’ve had a chance to adapt? I know I do—and in this episode, we’re diving headfirst into exactly what you need to watch out for.

This week on Podcast Junkies, host Harry Duran sits down with Matt Rouse, host of the Digital Marketing Masters podcast, AI futurist, author, and yes—AI Chicken Wrangler. Matt Rouse brings a unique blend of digital marketing expertise and real-world insight into what technology is doing to reshape small businesses and creative careers.

The main theme explores how AI is fragmenting social media, transforming local marketing, and pushing business owners to reevaluate where they invest their time and energy. Matt Rouse shares his track record for predicting tech trends (he got 13 out of 15 AI predictions right years before they happened) and offers practical advice for anyone running a local business, a niche startup, or even starting their own podcast.

But this episode isn’t just about doom-and-gloom predictions or runaway robots. Harry Duran and Matt Rouse get personal about parenting in a tech-driven world, universal basic income, and why understanding how to work with AI (rather than ignore it) is now an essential business skill. They also unpack how real relationships, local connections, and creativity might just be the human edge in a future dominated by algorithms.

Curious where your job, your marketing efforts, or even your family's future sits in this rapidly changing landscape? Hit play and future-proof your thinking—this is a conversation every business owner, marketer, and creative needs to hear.

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

Key TakeawaysReevaluate Your Marketing Channels:

Matt Rouse stresses that social media has become highly fragmented, making it essential for business owners to reassess where they invest their marketing time and resources. Instead of sticking to traditional platforms, focus on niche-specific or local platforms where your target audience actually spends time.

Prioritize Local Marketing for Local Businesses:

If you run a local service business or have a physical location, shift your energy towards local marketing strategies (like optimizing Google Business pages and partnering with local influencers). Generic, broad social media marketing isn’t as effective anymore for localized businesses.

Use Automation Tools to Save Time and Increase Results:

Take advantage of solutions like SMB Autopilot (developed by Matt Rouse), which automates and optimizes local SEO. These kinds of autopilot tools deliver results and monthly reports without manual effort, freeing up business owners to focus on their actual work and families.

Learn to Work with AI (Don’t Ignore It):

The people who know how to leverage AI in their businesses and workflows will have a significant advantage. Matt Rouse advocates treating AI as a partner—explaining tasks to it and learning how to get the best results. Ignoring AI or underestimating its pace of growth can leave you behind.

Focus on Customer Language and Needs, Not Personal Preference:

Understand that you are not your customer. Your preferred platforms and lingo might not match your audience’s. Invest time in audience research, listen to your client base, and adapt your marketing language and channels to where your customers actually spend their time online.

Tweetable Quotes

"You really need to speak the language of your customer and identify where and what they're doing. Remember that you are not your customer—your opinion of the best place to go on social isn't the choice. The choice is where your customer goes."

"There has never been a time in my child's life when she talked to a piece of electronics and it didn't either answer her or understand what she's saying. AI has been a thing that's in daily life since she's been able to remember. That's crazy."

"The more things are fake, the more people are going to want and pay for things that are real."

Key TakeawaysSpice Up Your Relationship Routine

Harry shares a practical relationship tip: even if you have a routine that works in your intimate life, make it a point to try something new at least once a month. Whether it’s a new activity or revisiting something you used to enjoy, fresh experiences can revitalize connection and intimacy.

Treat Your Relationship Like a Business—Strategic Planning Works!

Harry applies his business coaching experience to relationships by encouraging regular “strategic planning” sessions with your partner. He suggests sitting down at least once a year to set rolling three-year goals, create a 12-month plan, and break them down into actionable projects. This keeps both partners aligned and allows you to course-correct regularly.

Understand the Real Issues Behind Business Struggles

Harry points out that business owners often struggle with focus and growth because of unresolved relationship issues at home. By addressing the root personal challenges—instead of just business strategy—you unlock better clarity and decision-making in your professional life.

Start Before You’re Ready and Just Keep Going

Both Ellen and Harry discuss the challenges of launching a podcast (or any creative project). Their advice: Don’t get stuck aiming for perfection. Work through technical hurdles step by step, use cohort or group support if possible, and remember that every episode won’t be perfect. Publishing regularly is more important than waiting until everything is flawless.

Edit Your Own Content—At Least at First

Harry and Ellen both recommend editing your own podcast episodes when starting out. Doing this helps you catch verbal habits (like rambling or being repetitive), improve your narrative flow, and get more comfortable with your authentic voice. Tools like Descript can make the process more approachable and empower you to continually refine your messaging.

Memorable Quotes

"If you're in a relationship that involves sex, have it—because sex is the glue that holds intimate relationships together. Without it, you're just friends or roommates. And no matter how good or comfortable your routine is, try something different at least once a month. A little new stimulus can raise your whole sex life to another level."

"The reason people kept coming to me for advice is because I let them get the whole story out before jumping in. I became good at asking, 'What else?' so everything was on the table, which made people more open to actually listening and making positive changes."

"Entrepreneurship is challenging and it's not for everyone, but it's worth the effort to find balance. Don’t let your business be your whole life—even when it feels like it needs to be. Pay attention to your relationships and your own well-being, because that ultimately leads to a more fulfilling journey."

"When starting a podcast, catch people's attention right away. Start with a juicy question that will teach the audience something, rather than background information about the guest."

1. Choose a discoverable podcast name. Consider including relevant keywords in your show's title to improve searchability. You can add descriptive phrases to your main title in podcast directories.

2. Repurpose podcast content across multiple platforms. Turn episodes into blog articles, social media posts, and video clips to expand your reach. Being present on various channels increases discoverability.

3. Optimize your podcast for search. Include relevant keywords in episode titles, descriptions, and show notes. Encourage listeners to use keywords when leaving reviews to boost your ranking.

4. Continuously improve and test different strategies. Implement small, consistent improvements to your show. A/B test various approaches to see what resonates with your audience and focus your efforts on what works best.

Tweetable Quotes

"I wanted an all-in-one solution. It's something that provides a little bit of future for the business because you can integrate AI tools, you can integrate all sorts of different creation tools. So it gives you not just an agency, but a SaaS business as well, which creates a bit of passive income."

"If you have a podcast, why not turn that episode into a blog article? Make sure that it ranks on Google. You're going to get clicks on that article and obviously once you do that, you will be featured in AI as well, if you do it right."

"Once Skyler came into the world, I was like, wow, this is something else. I changed my mind about being a father. I think this is one of the greatest things you can ever do in your life, and if you have the chance to do it that's good."

Are you struggling to grow your podcast audience and wondering if there's a secret sauce to success? Jullian Androkae, podcast creative strategist, shares insights on the evolving landscape of podcasting and the importance of building a community around your show.

Jullian Androkae brings a wealth of experience from his work with brands like Coca-Cola and TurboTax, as well as his own agency, Podvision. He discusses the shift in podcaster expectations, the role of AI in content creation, and the value of being a jack-of-all-trades in the current podcasting environment.

The main focus of this episode is the importance of creating an ecosystem around your podcast. Jullian emphasizes that simply putting out great content isn't enough; success often hinges on leveraging earned media, social platforms, and email lists to reach and engage your audience.

Additional topics covered include the challenges of measuring podcast success, the potential of AI tools in streamlining podcast production, and Jullian's journey from Madagascar to becoming a podcast strategist. He also shares his experiences working on various shows and his current project, the Podcaster's Toolkit.

If you're looking to take your podcast to the next level and gain insights from an industry expert, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to hear Jullian's unique perspective on the future of podcasting and how to stand out in a crowded market.

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

5 Key Takeaways1. Leverage your existing audience and ecosystem to grow your podcast. Without a built-in community or distribution channels, even great content can struggle to find listeners.

1. Focus on engagement metrics beyond just downloads, like email list growth or audience interactions. These can be more meaningful indicators of success, especially for business-oriented shows.

2. Explore AI tools and automation to streamline your podcasting workflow. Simple scripts or browser extensions can save significant time on repetitive tasks.

3. Consider a niche focus for your podcast to attract targeted sponsors and generate revenue, even with a smaller audience. Vertical-specific shows can be very appealing to marketers.

4. Develop a range of skills as a "jack of all trades" in podcasting. Being versatile in areas like audio editing, video production, and AI tools can make you more adaptable in the evolving podcast landscape.

Tweetable Quotes

"If you just put out a podcast into the world, not much is going to happen with it, no matter how good it is. Without an ecosystem, a lot of podcasts in this era really struggle."

"I think that writers are actually the best prompt engineers and context engineers to think about how AI tools work and give them the best instructions possible."

"I've always been all over the place in terms of what I like to do. There's always been this idea that you become a jack of all trades. But now everyone is almost asked to become a jack of all trades in the podcasting industry."

Ever felt like you're wearing a mask, hiding your true self from the world? Beth Jones, host of "Let's Heal with Beth Jones," knows that feeling all too well. She's on a mission to help others shed their masks and embrace healing.

Beth Jones is a healing mentor, author, and podcast host who spent years as a successful forensic accountant while battling inner turmoil. Her journey from trauma to transformation led her to create a platform dedicated to healing and empowering survivors.

This episode dives deep into Beth's personal story, exploring how she discovered her need for healing at age 50 and embarked on a journey of self-discovery. Beth shares insights on forgiveness, the importance of therapy, and how her podcast provides a safe space for survivors to share their stories of healing.

Harry and Beth also discuss the challenges of hosting a podcast on sensitive topics, the concept of home, and how Beth's international upbringing shaped her worldview. They touch on the process of writing her book and the serendipitous events that led to the creation of her podcast.

If you're curious about the power of healing, the journey from trauma to purpose, or how to create a platform for meaningful conversations, don't miss this episode. Beth's story might just inspire you to start your own healing journey.

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

5 Key Takeaways1. Embrace your healing journey. As Beth Jones emphasizes, healing is an ongoing process. Take active steps to address past traumas and work through difficult emotions, even if it feels challenging.

1. Find your purpose through pain. Consider how your personal struggles could be transformed into a way to help others. Beth turned her experiences into a podcast and book to support fellow survivors.

2. Seek professional help when needed. Beth credits trauma therapy with saving her life. Don't hesitate to work with a qualified therapist to process unresolved issues and develop healthy coping strategies.

3. Share your story. Opening up about your experiences, when you're ready, can be healing for both yourself and others. Look for safe spaces to express yourself, whether through writing, podcasts, or support groups.

4. Focus on the healing, not just the trauma. When discussing difficult experiences, emphasize the growth and positive changes that came from overcoming challenges rather than dwelling solely on painful details.

Tweetable Quotes

"I'm all about healing. That's why the show's called Let's Heal with Beth Jones. We focus on the healing. Although I give every guest an opportunity to say whatever they want about how they arrived at a place where they needed to heal, the purpose is to talk about getting to the good place."

"I didn't know until I was 50 that I had something I needed to deal with. It kept building for 45 years, and suddenly I was confronted with it. We've all suffered trauma and abuse, and every one of us is at a varying degree of healing."

"The most misunderstood thing about me is being a radically different person today than the one people knew me as. Inside, I was not that person at all. I wore a bunch of masks that everybody else gave to me, and they became my Achilles heel in many instances."

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

5 Key Takeaways1. When starting a podcast, clearly define your goals first. This will inform everything from show format to marketing strategy.

1. Consider a six-tier marketing approach: publicity, owned marketing, cross-promotion, pitching podcast apps, paid acquisition, and data management.

2. For video podcasts, focus on packaging - optimize your title, description, thumbnail, and first 60 seconds to boost discoverability and retention.

3. Track key metrics like total listeners, consumption data, and platform share to inform both editorial decisions and marketing efforts.

4. For podcast monetization, aim for at least 50,000 downloads per month before pursuing direct response advertising deals. Smaller shows can explore programmatic ads or alternative revenue streams.

Tweetable Quotes

"Podcasting makes people's dreams come true. And you see it so frequently. And it's so funny because frankly, it's almost never in the way that people imagine."

"I view AI as a tool the same way I would view Muckrack or Podchaser or Megaphone as a tool. It allows you to do things easier, hopefully better, and hopefully quicker. But it still requires a lot of strategic thinking where you need to actually come up with a plan and set goals."

"When we approach a podcast marketing campaign, we first go back to the goals question, because I'm going to tweak this campaign based on what you tell me, like if you're looking for scale or niche or anything in between."

5 Key Takeaways1.Leverage podcasting for business development. Ledge found success using a podcast to connect with high-level prospects, leading to millions in sales. Consider starting a show focused on your target market to build relationships.

"Experience is what allows you to recognize a mistake when you make it again. You had to screw up a lot. I don't know that I couldn't have done that at the beginning, but I am able to leverage it now."

"I'm a revenue first guy. If we're going to do a company, everything's about revenue. The second thing is doing that in a high integrity way. The third is approaching it with calm confidence."

Andreea explores the evolving landscape of European podcasting, touching on the differences in monetization strategies between the US and Europe. She also shares her thoughts on the impact of AI in podcasting and the need for ethical implementation.

Andreea also discusses her upcoming speaking engagement at the Podcast Show in London and her goals for connecting podcasters across Europe.

If you're curious about the global podcasting landscape and want to learn how to navigate the European market, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to gain valuable insights from Andreea Coscai's unique perspective on the industry.

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

5 Key Takeaways1. Focus podcast marketing efforts on reaching existing podcast listeners rather than trying to convert non-listeners. Target places where podcast fans already congregate, like podcast newsletters and cross-promotions with other shows.

1. Consider niche sponsorship opportunities for podcasts, even before launch. Approach companies in your podcast's industry about sponsoring a season, positioning it as an alternative to expensive conference booths.

2. Use AI tools thoughtfully in podcasting, while being mindful of maintaining the human element. Look for ethical and culturally sensitive applications that enhance rather than replace human creativity.

3. Explore co-production opportunities across countries and languages to expand your podcast's reach. Organizations like Wepod facilitate international podcast collaborations on shared topics.

4. When interviewing high-profile guests like CEOs, approach the conversation with genuine curiosity. Ask open-ended questions and treat it like a natural conversation to put guests at ease.

Tweetable Quotes

"It's really so hard to convert someone from a non-listener to a listener and to a podcast lover. I try to do it with my friends all the time. Whatever conversation we're having, I tell them, I have a podcast for you. But they rarely listen, or if they do, they're not going to listen to a second one and get into the habit of it."

"The best way to market your podcast is to go where podcast lovers already are. That's why we focus so much on cross promos and features in podcasting newsletters."

"My main goal in whatever I do now is finding those clients and teams that I align with based on values and their passion for what they do. That's what really drives me at the end of the day."

Ever feel like you're missing out on essential life wisdom? Hunter Toran shares insights on embracing elderhood and fostering personal growth that could transform your perspective.

Hunter Toran, a somatic practitioner and men's work facilitator, brings his wealth of experience to the Podcast Junkies show. With a background in agriculture, spirituality, and human development, Hunter offers a unique blend of practical and philosophical wisdom.

This episode explores the concept of elderhood and the importance of embracing personal growth at any age. Hunter discusses the "Third Way" - a balanced approach to life that combines traditional wisdom with modern insights, offering a fresh perspective on navigating our complex world.

The conversation also touches on the power of somatic work, the challenges of men's personal development, and the transformative potential of facing our fears. Hunter shares personal anecdotes from his work with Sacred Sons and reflects on the evolving nature of masculinity in today's society.

Ready to gain some elder wisdom and explore new paths for personal growth? Tune in to this episode of Podcast Junkies with Hunter Toran for an enlightening conversation that might just change how you view your own journey.

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

5 Key Takeaways1. Cultivate awareness through movement. Somatic practices can help uncover subconscious patterns and increase intuition. Try incorporating mindful movement or body-based practices into your routine.

1. Seek balance between catharsis and integration. While intense experiences can be transformative, sustainable growth requires ongoing integration. Look for ways to process and apply insights from peak experiences in daily life.

2. Explore elderhood as a journey, not just an age. Regardless of your years, consider how you can cultivate wisdom and take on mentorship roles. Reflect on what you have to offer younger generations.

3. Practice attunement to natural rhythms. Notice how aligning with cycles like sunrise and sunset affects your energy and awareness. Experiment with adjusting your schedule to sync with nature's patterns.

4. Embrace the "Third Way" in relationships and decision-making. When faced with polarities, look for emergent solutions that honor multiple perspectives. Cultivate both personal sovereignty and collective responsibility.

Tweetable Quotes

"The body keeps the story. Even the brain - there's no hard drive in the head. They keep looking for the memories there. They're not going to find them. Because they're in the soft tissues. And they're actually in the space around us."

"The Third Way speaks to what's emergent. We always want to honor tradition, but tradition has also failed. We have to be real about that. These new traditions that will be born will be a third way between the human being suspended between the cosmos and land."

"I've changed my mind about aging. I used to fear it, pulling out gray hairs and worrying about wrinkles. Now I'm savoring the age I'm at and have a beautiful curiosity about where it's going. I don't want to get old - I want to get elder."

1. Explore different avenues to monetize your creative skills. Consider options like teaching, creating online courses, or licensing your work to diversify your income streams.

2. When promoting podcast episodes, create short video clips highlighting key moments. Share these teasers across platforms like LinkedIn, Instagram, and Pinterest to attract listeners.

3. Use Pinterest as a long-lasting promotional tool for your podcast. Unlike other social platforms, Pinterest posts can drive traffic to your show for months after publishing.

4. Experiment with different titles and descriptions for your podcast content across platforms. What works for audio may need tweaking for YouTube to improve discoverability and engagement.

Tweetable Quotes

"The thing about creativity is that it's very forgiving. It allows you to go back, and you're always learning something from whatever it's happened to you. So it's an encouraging thing to know that you can go back and it's still there for you."

"My creativity isn't just something I do for a living. It's something I do to stay alive. It helps me keep my head on straight. It helps me solve problems."

"We have such an epidemic of mental crisis in our world, and so much of that is because we don't pay attention to ourselves as much as we could or should. Creativity is free. It doesn't involve any medication, it doesn't involve trips to the doctor."

Ever wondered how to turn your personal struggles into a powerful platform for change? Justine Finocchiaro-Doles, host of "Just Talk with Justine," shares her journey from cancer survivor to podcast host, inspiring others through stories of resilience and hope.

Justine, a four-time cancer survivor and dragon boat enthusiast, launched her podcast to give voice to breast cancer survivors and thrivers. With 20 episodes under her belt, she's created a safe space for sharing deeply personal stories of triumph over adversity.

In this episode, Justine opens up about her own battle with cancer, her mission to make guests feel at ease, and her plans to rebrand and grow her show. She discusses the challenges of podcasting, from technical hurdles to building self-confidence as a host.

Ready to be inspired by Justine's journey and gain valuable insights into podcasting with purpose? Listen now and discover how one woman's mission to share stories of survival is changing lives, one episode at a time.

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

5 Key Takeaways1. Rebrand your podcast to better reflect its focus. Consider changing "Just Talk with Justine" to something like "Survivors and Thrivers: Living Your Best Life" to clearly communicate the show's purpose and attract your target audience.

1. Create a simple website using a tool like PodPage. Connect it to your RSS feed so new episodes automatically generate blog posts, giving you an easy-to-maintain online presence.

2. Develop a "dream 100" list of potential guests whose stories of surviving and thriving you'd love to feature. Use this as motivation and a guide for growing your show.

3. Improve your guest follow-up process. After publishing an episode, send your guest a package with links to the episode, social media copy, and graphics they can use to promote their appearance.

4. Focus on creating a safe space for guests to share vulnerable stories. Practice active listening, allow for pauses and silence, and remember there are three people in each conversation - you, your guest, and the listener.

Tweetable Quotes

"I view life as live life like you're dying. If I want to jump out of that airplane, I better do it. You're going to go one day, so it all depends on how you go. I want to just live like I'm dying."

"My goal is to make them feel at ease. I don't want anybody to feel nervous talking about personal stuff like their breasts are gone and they've got tattoos on their nipples. That's a hard thing to talk about sometimes."

"I'm a four time cancer survivor, so I know when I was going through all that, I didn't have somebody to chat with. Now with the camaraderie of my team, that has really helped me step out of my comfort zone and speak to others about their journeys."

1. Consider creating a "second screen" experience for podcasts, similar to IMDb for movies. This could include episode summaries, key takeaways, and links to referenced people/products.

2. Explore new monetization opportunities for indie podcasters, such as affiliate links for products mentioned passively in episodes or pooling inventory across smaller shows for ad buys.

3. Use AI-powered chat interfaces to gain insights into what listeners are most interested in. This data can inform future episode planning and guest bookings.

4. Think holistically about the podcast ecosystem and look for opportunities to create value for both listeners and creators. Consider how technologies from other industries (e.g. ad tech) could be applied to podcasting.

Tweetable Quotes

"Systems level thinking. Because I operated in a single business unit, digital music. Right. However, at the time Amazon had 55 business units of which AWS was just one business unit at the time."

"I never really thought I... When I talked about this, I think the deepcast creator page says... 'You create the show. Let us help you with what comes after.' That's now a misnomer. Right. Because I never thought we would be getting to show planning or the creative part of creation of the shows, except for with this data signal."

"How do I actually take a hundred Harry Podcast Junkie-like shows... and all of them fascinating. But how do I potentially turn that into buying and selling something into that audience? This is where again, system thinking across all the parts of my brain like yours, I connect all these dots. I'm like, why aren't we doing these things?"

"Every time you add something - another camera, another light, another piece of software - it gets exponentially more complicated. Now you can just sort of let your guard down and say, as we used to say in TV days, 'we'll fix it in post.'"

Tweetable Quotes

"I remember I approached him and I was like, 'Hey, first off, my college town, it's like, you know, there's an endangered species. It's an environmentally sensitive area. I said, no one's covering the environment. Can I cover the environment as a reporter for one of the radio shows?' He was like, 'Sure, as long as you don't cuss.'"

"I'm hoping that this is a way for whatever writing passion that they had or passion they had that now they could be able to pursue that, that maybe there will be some new openings. I've told people in the past too, especially like mentees that are in college that one, you know, you don't have to go into investigative journalism. But I'm bringing that up as an example that I think that's one of the genres of journalism that will be really hard for an AI to replicate."

"My whole obsession for the past couple of years has been around hazardous sites. I've just become super obsessed with hazardous sites. And not just Superfund sites, but just the idea for me of how we got to this place. At one point in time, we were definitely okay with just dumping every kind of chemical into a body of water. The psyche of it just is interesting to me about why people do the things that they do and what the ramifications and the lasting impact is."

If you've ever doubted the value of your own story or struggled to find your voice, this episode will inspire you to shine your light. Listen now to unlock the transformative power of storytelling in your own life and work.

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

5 Key Takeaways1. Embrace your story, no matter how big or small. Whether you have a complex, messy narrative or feel your life is "vanilla," your experiences are valuable and worth sharing.

1. Focus on the transformation in your story. Move past dwelling on the "before" and highlight how you've grown, what you've learned, and who you've become.

2. Use heart math to connect with interviewees. Enter conversations with genuine openness, compassion, and a desire to listen without judgment. This creates a safe space for authentic sharing.

3. Practice telling your own story. Even if you're used to sharing others' stories, push yourself to be vulnerable and share your experiences. This builds authenticity and connection with your audience.

4. Surround yourself with people who challenge you. Seek out relationships that push you to grow, call out your potential, and refuse to let you play small. This environment fosters continuous personal and professional development.

Tweetable Quotes

"I've probably interviewed 10,000 people in my career, which is pretty significant. And when I saw that on paper, when I did the math, I was like, wow, that's a lot. It's allowed me to really just be present with people and ask questions and let the interview go where it goes."

"The number one rule of storytelling is who is your audience? Remember that first. Who are you trying to reach? It's about them first. It's not about your agenda, your outcomes, your beautiful interview. It's about their story and them."

"I think people are actually surprised about how sharp-tongued I can be. With my clients and people in my inner circle, I will speak freely and say things you need to hear. I'm not going to stand for your mediocrity. If you're playing small, I'm going to call you out on it."

Episode SponsorFullCast – https://fullcast.co/

5 Key Takeaways1. Speak to customers regularly. Eytan tries to talk to 1-2 customers per week minimum to understand their needs and pain points. This direct feedback informs product development and business strategy.

1. Identify your "MIT" (Most Important Thing). Regularly assess where the biggest bottleneck is in your business and focus your energy there until it's resolved before moving on to the next priority.

2. Challenge your own thinking. Eytan encourages disagreement and different perspectives to refine ideas. He enters conversations with strong opinions but hopes others will "trash" them to reveal better solutions.

3. Build resilience through experience. Facing and overcoming repeated challenges builds confidence in your ability to handle future obstacles. View setbacks as opportunities to develop this critical skill.

4. Right-size your banking for cost savings. Many businesses waste money on unnecessary fees or suboptimal account structures. Regularly review your banking setup to ensure it aligns with your needs and minimizes costs.

Tweetable Quotes

"I hate quitting more than I hate suffering. This is the system telling me I don't work. I'm going to crush the system, manage myself through it so I can walk away on my terms rather than simply having the system give me low marks and tell me I'm not good."

"My goal wasn't to say, can you get people's eyes for 35 minutes? But rather, can I have that conversation and bring a couple of nuggets that are then something I can take to the customers? That's really where the podcast started."

"The best decisions, the best ideas, they definitely don't come from me. They come from people who are in the trenches, working on stuff, and they're like, 'Hey, what about?' And all of a sudden that turns into something really novel."

5 Key Takeaways1. Consider adding a co-host to your podcast if you're struggling with motivation or consistency. As Kelle Sparta mentioned, having someone to talk to can make it easier to sit down and record regularly.

1. Plan your podcast content in advance. Kelle aims to be 90 days ahead on content for her show, which reduces stress and allows for better organization.

2. Experiment with different podcast formats to find what works best for you and your audience. Kelle's Spirit Sherpa podcast includes a brief personal update, a main topic discussion, and a call to action at the end.

3. Don't underestimate the power of your podcast as a business tool. Kelle shared that 98% of her business comes from her podcast, demonstrating its potential as a lead generation channel.

4. Consider using asynchronous communication tools like Marco Polo for coaching or client interactions. This approach can provide flexibility for both you and your clients, improving work-life balance and client satisfaction.

Memorable Quotes

"I am an initiatrix. I stand in the doorway of initiation. I carry the energy of transformation. I can't do anything that is fluffy bunny. I can't. I can try and it won't work."

"If you want to truly be magical, if you want to truly tap into all of your resources, you have to do the personal growth work because the limiting beliefs keep you from your power. And if you don't clear those, then you don't get to your power and your power will always be limited."

"It's not what I do. It's who I am. My mother raised me in this work. I was five years old when she started exposing me to all of these things and bringing home education cassette tapes, because I'm that old."

Tweetable Quotes"I take that 700 page book that you will never read and digest it into two parts, less than an hour. For some very famous people, or even some oddball people you've never heard of, I kind of do that process for you in a way that makes it interesting to most people, even if they have no interest or would define history as boring."

"If you're interested in podcasting, don't try to chase audience. Find something that you really like and want to do because you're going to last 10 episodes if you're not really jazzed by podcasting. You've got to find your niche, you've got to find an audience, and you also have to find something that motivates you to keep posting this stuff."

"I wouldn't have cranked out 150 episodes if I didn't love what I do. Clearly, I have thought about other topics, yet my perspective is I've known other podcasters who've searched out other topics and they found they didn't even do as well with their second or third topic because they got so stretched thin that the whole thing fell apart after that."

"The industry is real tough and if you're ever exposed to that, I think you're going to have to realize that just being great at your instrument is great, but it's not enough. You need to do all the other stuff, which is like networking. Not being an idiot is quite an interesting part of it as well."

"I thought there was too many podcasts at the start when I joined. I do believe everyone's got different voice. And what I mean by that is that's a bit of a cliche, but in a travel perspective, if you went to Thailand tomorrow and I went to Thailand tomorrow for the same amount of time, even in the same places, we're going to have different story because things happen to you that's different to me."

"I think the real content there to really appeal is let's not give it away too much. Let's tell you what El Salvador is like and what I did and who I met and some sounds and some tips. But I want the imagination to not be completely gone. I want you to think, oh yeah, what else did he see? Like, should I go there?"

Tweetable Quotes

"I was an English major in college, and I got to New York having very minimal employment. I was working as an unpaid intern at the Paris Review and writing book reviews for various publications. A friend who was ahead of me in school landed a job at the New Yorker and told me about an opening for an assistant. That’s how I started at the New Yorker."

"I remember right around the time I got my first iPhone, there was this weird icon I didn’t know. I found Rachel Maddow and started listening to a ton of her podcasts. For years, that was the only podcast I knew about until things developed in that space."

"When I started making Lost Hills, just being able to bring people’s voices to the listeners was so cool to me. I feel like I’m hosting a party of these sources and the listeners. It’s a unique way to translate the experience to the audience."

Tweetable Quotes

"I think the interesting thing about growing up in a rural area is that you're generally expected to know how to do things. I can drive a tractor, change brakes, and even replace an engine. It's just part of the lifestyle."

"When I started my podcast, I didn't have a plan. I was reading a lot of personal development books and thought, wouldn't it be cool to learn from the authors? It wasn't about making money; it was about having meaningful conversations."

"The pandemic was a turning point for me. I saw a lot of poor management and encroachment on civil rights. I realized that talking to another best-selling author wasn't going to address these issues. I wanted to have real conversations about what's happening in the world and how to navigate it."

"I grew up in a home where there was music on always. My dad was a huge music buff, and he introduced me to jazz and classical, and then my two older brothers introduced me to metal. So I had a wide spectrum of noise growing up."

Tweetable Quotes

"Growing up in New York is amazing. I didn't learn to drive until my twenties, which shocks a lot of people, but for a New Yorker, that's par for the course. You could just do whatever, and it was very freeing in that sense."

"I think my passion that I discovered in college was actually documentary filmmaking. I had pretty grand ambitions of making feature films, but I got lucky. I also wrote for the college paper, the Harvard Crimson, and my first job out of college combined journalism and video production."

"The hardest part was tracking and writing narration. Writing is hard, and it's even a higher bar when people can't see what the place looks like. The sound can help describe it, but you have to write to that too."

Tweetable Quotes

"I started my podcast, the one that I currently have that's now called 'We're All in This Together,' back in 2016. The plan was just to do some interviews for my book. Once I was done researching for the book, I was going to be done with the podcast. But I got done writing the book, and I was still liking the podcast and enjoying the conversations, so I just kept going with it."

"I ended up choosing to go to Stanford even though I was scared. It was such a good decision for me because what I learned when I got there was that it was better to be in an environment where I was a bit intimidated and felt like the players were even better around me because it forced me to step up."

"For me, it's not a huge money maker or a big marketing funnel. It's just something that I like doing, I feel like I'm good at, and I think it reaches some people. It gives me a platform to share ideas, interview interesting people, and talk about topics that matter to me. It's an extension of my larger brand and a way to connect with my audience."

Tweetable Quotes

"I made a decision very early that I didn't want to be a product of where I came from. So I turned to education and reading, which afforded me the opportunity to get a full academic scholarship and chart a different path."

"Miss Dixon, my fifth and sixth grade teacher, and Mr. Cook, my guidance counselor from ninth through twelfth grade, were like guardian angels to me. They saw potential in me and provided me with opportunities that shaped the person I am today."

"I just wanted to be rich, if I could be honest. We were so broke. Even though my dad was technically middle class, he made really good money. He was an industrial engineer with GM, but of course, he smoked it, so he didn't really get to see it. I knew a whole bunch of babies and welfare wasn't going to be the move if I wanted to be wealthy. So I decided to seek out education."

Tweetable Quotes

"It started in a two-bedroom apartment... I ordered a $1.50 desk and a Blue Yeti microphone. Even if you don't have an extravagant background, a clean background is better than extravagant."

"I had a mentor come into my life, and he said, 'Brandon, you've got to work on yourself before you can move up into any level of leadership.' He advised me to start with my fitness and my body. I discovered personal development and eventually wanted to help others make the same changes I made."

"I discovered my superpower when I gave a training about my journey, talking about goal setting and discipline. People came up to me afterward and were surprised by how well I could speak. That was when I realized what I loved to do."

Tweetable Quotes

"I tried nine to five; didn't work for me. Despite Cigna's best efforts to give me everything I ever asked for, the whole time, I knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur. So I had all kinds of really weird side hustles throughout those four years."

"It's been full time, literally nothing but podcasting. It's been six years later, and I've only done podcasting. I was so excited for it and it got a little bit of buzz. People were talking about it a bit, and I was like, 'Ah, finally, I got my thing.'"

"You have to learn how to prioritize things that you really don't need to do today but make all the difference in the world to make the product better all the time. Learning how to think in systems has helped me with working with clients, working with people, working with employees, and made me a great dog trainer."

In this episode, I speak with Patrick, back for Round 3 on the show. He’s been journeying through the realms of the paranormal on the Big Séance podcast for an entire decade. Together, we dive into the essence of what has made this adventure so special – from the intimate creation of a Victorian séance parlor for your listening pleasure to the honest, unscripted moments that remind us all that podcasting is as human as it gets. Patrick's reflections on the growth of the show, our shared experiences, and the careful curation of a community of the spiritually curious are not just stories; they're the heartbeat of a conversation that has thrived on authenticity and a genuine love for the unexplained.

We also wander down the less-traveled paths of our personal histories, discussing the interplay of spirituality, skepticism, and the responsibility we hold as podcasters in today's world. Patrick's insight into navigating sensitive topics, his own spiritual awakening, and the poignant act of honoring forgotten souls through grave adoptions brings a depth to this episode that is grounding and inspiring. As we celebrate this milestone anniversary, I'm reminded of why this podcast resonates so deeply with me – and hopefully with you too. It's not just the ghostly whispers or the creaking floorboards; it's the shared human experience of seeking, questioning, and connecting that makes our podcast community so extraordinary.

"Whenever I do an episode about some individual who played a role in spiritualism or whatever, I sometimes wonder, do they know and do they appreciate us kind of pulling their name back up and is it something that affects them? On the other side, do they feel when people a hundred years later they didn't know, not connected to them?"

"With AI grabbing voices, it kind of worries me. But I have had the conversation with my husband, and I've told him, unless you're in need at that moment, I want my shows to stay available. At least until people forget about me."

Tweetable Quotes"I was raised without any money, so the thing that you don't have when you grow up is kind of the thing you end up coveting or wanting or desiring."

"Just knowing more about how to invest does not mean you're a more successful investor... Investing is 100% forward-looking. It requires us to either know something about the future, which is impossible... So what can I do? Well, oddly, there's a ton of academic research that tells us what we should do and it's very clear. It's not complex."

"The largest benefit that the advisor provides is behavioral support... The point of that is to provide some calm and to move people out of the amygdala fight-or-flight response into the frontal cortex. Have them think about it, reflect on their plan, realize that, hey, probably the best thing I can do for myself is sit on my hands right now, not do anything, ride this out, this too shall pass."

Imagine shifting from a 9-5 job to the uncharted waters of entrepreneurship? That's the journey Matt Shields, co-founder of Chimehouse Media, undertook. We explore the trials and triumphs of Matt's voyage, discussing the impact of the Apple iOS update on Facebook Ads and the core elements every podcaster should possess to create an entrepreneurial mindset. Matt's wisdom, built on a foundation of spending over a million dollars on Facebook ads in the last three years, explores the avenues of team and personal brand building on social media platforms.

Have you ever wondered why some podcasts gain more followers than others? The answer lies in the art of audience building, an aspect we thoroughly discuss with Matt. We delve into the effective use of Facebook and Instagram for targeted reach, the power of strong messaging, and the trust-building capacity of host reads. Matt's insights into the wild and often times obscure world of ads, retainer fees, and audience scrubbing are a goldmine for those looking to increase brand visibility in a niche market. We also touch upon how the dwindling attention spans of today's audience affect marketing strategies and the need for actionable metrics in podcasting.

The final segment of our conversation unravels Matt's ad strategy for audience building, his views on having a Creator Instagram and a Facebook Business Page, and the common pitfalls of boosting posts. The nitty-gritty of ad submission and conversion on Facebook, according to Matt, could be the game changer for your brand's success. We wrap up discussing Matt's future testing plans and his willingness to revisit for more insightful chats. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a podcaster, or someone interested in personal brand building, this conversation promises actionable insights.

Tweetable Quotes"If you're using social media as part of your business, your organic reach is only 0.98%. So that means if you have a thousand followers, less than nine people are seeing your posts on a daily basis."

"If you have a good, tight show and your messaging is consistent, if your message resonates with the people that you target, they're going to want to hear your stuff more."

"The further you dig down and get more specific with it, people wanna think like oh, they're talking directly to me, but a podcast is a super way to do that and the algorithm is set up for it right now perfectly."

And then I listened to podcasts, and I loved Tim Ferriss's show, but I'd always wished he'd interviewed more women and talked about adventure because that's my love language.”

"If you're agnostic or you believe in God, there's the understanding that we all are nonphysical beings as well as physical. And how I describe that normally is I say so. You see the sun in the sky, and the sun has sunbeams, and the sun in this metaphor would be all non physical energy. And God or source and the sunbeams are us."

"If they're in my community, they know, because it's not about I need you to believe anything about the story I just told. It's more of, listen to this message. Does it resonate with you? Do you get anything from it? And if you do, it doesn't really matter what the story is. It doesn't matter where it comes from."

Tweetable Quotes"The number one thing I had to do was exit my apartment. Now, this didn't mean I was seeing anyone, but I would go and just walk on these empty roads. And it was crazy. You think of midtown Manhattan being empty. My husband's a big runner, and he did a long training run and he ran up 11th Avenue."

"The mental health is the biggest aspect. But then you could argue that you need the physical health to then have that balance. I always stress it's whole health, right? It's never just about one thing. It's never about how many minutes were you in the gym or exactly what you ate. It's looking at the whole picture and it all feeds into the other aspects. Everything's intertwined."

"It's just that first step is oftentimes the hardest one. And so when I knew this was going to be an interview style show, I reached out to two people. And once you send that email, you're stuck. Right? Well, if they say yes, I have to do this now because I can't leave them in the lurch. And that's how it started. They both said yes and we had a show."

Tweetable Quotes“How did I find your show? I was looking for shows about podcasting, and I had ran into Daniel J. Lewis, Dave Jackson, and yours popped up. And I saw your logo there, and I was just like, that's striking. And sure enough, there you were. And I was like, oh, wow. So I caught you in that 2017, 2018 time period there and have been a fan ever since.”

“One of my taglines is taming that inner critic. But when it takes over, when it stops you cold, when it won't let you even start a project, that's when there's a problem. I have an inner critic. My inner critic is loud. He is very loud. And on occasion, I have to take him out back in the woodshed and we have a conversation.”

“I think we've been indoctrinated trained through school, through media. That everything. This is beauty, and this is not beauty. And some of the things that aren't beautiful aren't conventionally beautiful. I absolutely love Mark Rothko paintings. Washes of color. We have one down in Richmond, VA. The first time I saw my first Rothco, I go up there and I got it. I understood what was going on. My wife looked at it and she was like, okay, well, nice paint.”

Tweetable Quotes“I love mentoring and helping people become who they're made to be, but also just a square peg in a round hole. Then coming out of that, basically it felt like my whole life kind of unraveled on me because I thought that was what I was supposed to do.”

“I’ve heard you talk about this with some of your guests, just how important it is to listen for the questions that you might miss otherwise and how you never do it perfectly. But you know, when something emerges and it's like, yeah, that's the direction we need to go next. I think just listening to the guests and then listening to myself in the conversation, I think I've gotten a lot better at that, which is just a long, fancy way of saying I think I've gotten better at interviewing.”

“It’s just been just really helpful to have more language, to have more stories, to hear other people's experiences, and to feel like the parts of me that don't make sense, have a way of making sense”

“As soon as you have more than one microphone you get into all this complexity and these are the things we have control over. So we call it crosstalk reduction but also the bleeding part of it and also the things like room acoustics because you never have control over that. And also distance between the person talking and the microphone.”

Tweetable Quotes“I think it was a series of mishaps, accidents, curiosity and really serendipity that landed me where I am.” (07:51) (Ranjay)

“Our mission at Harvard Business School is to educate leaders to make a difference in the world. Of course every organization has a purpose, but we actually believe it. We really believe that we are privileged with the position and the resources made available to us and that with that privilege comes responsibilities. And our responsibility is to educate leaders to make a difference in the world. And it’s something that we take very seriously.” (10:38) (Ranjay)

“My world and how I grew up is a very important part of who I am. I learned about business from watching my mother. My mother was building a business while I was a kid. I got to watch from my living room - where she ran the business from - how a business gets started.” (17:58) (Ranjay)

“I was very fortunate to have amazing sets of advisors for my doctoral research. My one advisor shared his idea that you have to study important problems. And ‘important’ means important to the world. So, find what’s important in the world today.” (20:44) (Ranjay)

“I had to learn how to listen. I needed to learn how to ask probing questions. I needed to learn how to not interrupt. And I needed to genuinely listen. We listen, sometimes, to react. When I do that, I’m not really listening. I’m formulating the next question or the comment I want to make. Only when you genuinely listen can you get the other person to open up.” (29:22) (Ranjay)

“When you bring purpose or intention into your life, you can’t help but share it with others as well. But you can’t preach to others. I think everybody has to be ready and at the right stage in their life.” (36:33) (Ranjay)

Episode SummaryDr. Melvin Varghese is a licensed psychologist who realized that he wanted more than the traditional career route. Not wanting to simply fit his family, health and hobbies around his career, he instead built a career around those pillars. Dr. Melvin transformed his wildly successful podcast and blog, Selling the Couch, into a podcasting course for therapists who wanted to share their big messages with the world. Today, Harry and Dr. Melvin talk about the concept of ‘enough,’ the four-day work week, and the importance of fostering creativity, especially as an entrepreneur. Dr. Melvin expounds on his online course mastermind and other exciting ventures he has in the pipeline.

57:40 – Harry thanks Dr. Melvin for joining the show and lets listeners know where they can go to connect with him and learn more about Selling the Couch

Tweetable Quotes“There’s this sense of connecting to one another. And there’s a slow pace of life where it’s more about enjoying the work as opposed to completing the work. It changes your perspective on life.” (16:33) (Dr. Melvin)

“I wanted to figure out how my daughter and I could do as many interesting things to foster creativity and have that openness of spirit, fully aware that she would eventually go into a system where that would be potentially zapped.” (20:28) (Dr. Melvin)

“Literally this was a side gig. I started interviewing successful practitioners about how they built their businesses. I started interviewing therapists about how they started creating income beyond the therapy room.” (29:04) (Dr. Melvin)

“I think the most I’ve grown [as a podcast host] is just letting my personality and my imperfections shine.” (35:58) (Dr. Melvin)

“It’s when I narrowed it down to therapists, but even ‘therapists’ was not niched enough for my course. What I actually now have niched it down to is ‘successful therapists in private practice who are moving from therapist chair to more of an online business.” (42:10) (Dr. Melvin)

“I realized that a lot of stuff is driven by quality sleep. The way I used to think about it was that sleep was something that is needed to get you refreshed for the next day. Whereas now I’ve started optimizing around sleep.” (56:48) (Dr. Melvin)

Tweetable Quotes“It was amazing. It was my second time going to Podcast Movement. This time I really got into the business side of podcasting, the industry stuff.” (07:34) (Diania)

“At the time, I wasn’t really looking at myself as a content creator. I was looking at myself as highlighting other content creators and giving them a literal stage to share their message.” (18:57) (Diania)

“I really wanted to create something that would create that feeling for people, but specifically for money. Money is an incredible tool that you can use to build the life of your dreams.” (23:47) (Diania)

“When you first discover the FIRE Movement, it’s super exciting. You start reducing all your expenses, increasing your income, and coming up with your investment strategy. But about five to seven years in, you kinda get bored. And it takes anywhere from five to twenty years to reach financial independence.” (41:23) (Diania)

“There’s actually a skillset that comes from reading out loud. We all had to do it when we were kids in school, right? I just remember being super nervous to mess up or say a word wrong. But now, after hundreds of episodes of just reading, it just comes a lot more naturally to me. I also find that I have more stamina now than I did in the beginning.” (48:26) (Diania)

Tweetable Quotes“We want somebody to learn in exchange for their forty-five minutes of tuning in. It’s still a hurdle to get somebody from stranger to listener. They gotta find their podcast app. They gotta search for your specific show. They gotta scroll down to the specific episode you’re talking about. They gotta find a forty-five minute gap in their day to actually tune in. It’s a big ask and so the hook for that has got to be really compelling.” (22:36) (Nick)

“Side Hustle Nation is a show that people hopefully graduate out of at some point, where they find their idea and then they go off and do that thing.” (24:58) (Nick)

“A podcast by itself is not a business. It can be a perfectly viable content marketing arm for a business. And shifting that was a huge inflection point. And what that looked like in practice, in my case, was creating episode-specific lead magnets.” (33:02) (Nick)

“Fatherhood has softened me in a lot of ways. And it’s aged me horribly in a lot of ways. They just know how to push your buttons. But, at the same time, it’s super rewarding to watch them learn, and grow, and sponge up the world around them.” (48:14) (Nick)

“Along those notes of dealing with failure, the big thing is positioning any new project in your mind as an experiment. I find, for me, that that really softens the blow of the inevitable failures that come along the way.” (1:00:41) (Nick)

1:08:37 – Something Diane has changed her mind about recently and the most misunderstood thing about her

1:11:12 – Harry thanks Diane for joining the show and lets listeners know where they can go to connect with her and learn more about MindBodySpirit.fm

Tweetable Quotes“Luckily, I managed to get the job at HayHouse, and then actually meet and interact with these people, and learn so much. It just brought me further onto my path...Dr. Wayne Dyer would come and do the show and just talk to people from all over the world. And I would listen to everything he told them and I learned so many lessons: How to pay attention to how you think, and things that you tell yourself, and the people you surround yourself with.” (24:35) (Diane)

“That’s what we’re trying to share with the podcasters that are gathering on MindBodySpirit.fm is to give people a place to come to share their stories and their message. And the content that we’re gathering in this space is so needed right now because really we’re living in a dystopian nightmare right now.” (29:18) (Diane)

“That’s what we’re trying to share with the podcasters that are gathering on MindBodySpirit.fm is to give people a place to come to share their stories and their message. And the content that we’re gathering in this space is so needed right now because really we’re living in a dystopian nightmare right now.” (29:18) (Diane)

“I remember seeing this back in my HayHouse days where people would say, ‘Oh, I speak all the time. I can do a radio show no problem.’ It’s a lot different when you’re alone in front of a microphone than when you’re getting this love from people in a live audience. It’s a very different scenario.” (41:12) (Diane)

“I always tell people consistency is key. If you’re just gonna be randomly putting stuff out there, it’s just not gonna get any traction.” (49:31) (Diane)

“As divided as we seem today, we really are connected. I really believe that we are connected and we do touch people in so many ways. And so the more positively you can touch someone somehow in their life, the better. It can be a small thing like buying someone a coffee.” (1:02:50) (Diane)

Key Takeaways06:26 – Heather Osgood joins the show to discuss her experience at Podcast Movement in Dallas and the challenges of managing and retaining a growing team as a small business owner

14:37 – Business models that Heather likes to follow

18:11 – How entrepreneurship has profoundly changed Heather

20:27 – Moving to Florida and experiencing Hurricane Ian

24:54 – Programmatic ads, consolidation and other trends Heather has observed in the podcasting industry

47:11 – What’s next for The Podcast Broker

54:38 – Harry thanks Heather for joining the show and lets listeners know where they can go to connect with her and learn more about The Podcast Broker

Tweetable Quotes“One of the biggest challenges that I face is that it is still a very competitive job market. So making sure that your team members are all taken care of isn’t always the easiest. I think one of the observations I’ve had recently is that we’re still a small company. And so when you hire really talented employees - if they’re ambitious and they’re looking to grow - they’re only going to be happy in that role for a year maybe. And then they’ve outgrown that role and there isn’t anywhere else for me to put them.” (10:56) (Heather)

“I love content creation. I love speaking. I really want, personally, to grow my thought leadership within the industry. And I can’t do all of those things when I’m managing every single team member.” (15:05) (Heather)

“In terms of the trends, I think that we’ve seen so much consolidation. Podcasting was created to be this very open source environment and we’ve had so many large companies coming in and doing so much consolidation. There’s a lot of conversations right now about how these bigger companies - Spotify in particular - is really influencing the industry. I think that has been fairly significant. I do think it will be interesting to see how this recession/slowdown period in our economy is gonna impact that, if we see less acquisitions happen.” (25:19) (Heather)

“Every medium is gonna have an audience that they reach strongly that is going to bring a certain type of customer. And, what advertisers tend to see with podcast advertising, in particular in podcast audiences, is the audiences tend to be early adopters, people who want to buy the newest thing out there. They tend to be higher income earners. They tend to be more educated. So those buyers are gonna be different." (33:42) (Heather)

“We’re really doing things in a very high-touch way right now. I want to make sure that the podcasts that we’re selling are in a good place. I want to make sure that I understand the buyers. Right now it is in a very high-touch place, so I would say that on the roadmap certainly

Key Takeaways06:26 – Moritz Kaminski joins the show to discuss Bitcoin, the Podcasting 2.0 Movement, and staying on top of the world of Tech

12:26 – Bitcoin and the Lightning Network, explained

21:01 – The problem Moritz and his team were looking to solve when they started Alby

Tweetable Quotes“Bitcoin is a digital currency and what is interesting is that it's independent. So there are no bills to print or coins to make. It’s decentralized and there is no government or institution like a bank or any other authority that controls it. So, it’s really all up to the users of the network and how this network evolves.” (11:00) (Moritz)

“If you compare gold to Bitcoin, then you have a lot of the same properties. Both have a limited supply. But the downside of gold is it’s very hard to transport. It’s very hard to validate if it’s real gold. When it comes to Bitcoin, it’s super simple to store. It’s super simple to transport and it’s very easy also to validate.” (13:54) (Moritz)

“So, we started off as a Bitcoin Lightning wallet because of the reason that you said that there is no native monetization of information on the web; it’s still separated. There is Paypal on the one side and then there is the exchange of information on the other side. But they don’t go together. It’s too expensive to make these payments through the web. And that’s why we started Alby where our mission is to make these payments accessible for everyone.” (22:17) (Moritz)

“We are taking big steps in terms of user experience here [at Alby] and making it easier and easier and easier for podcasters to get started.” (35:07) (Moritz)

“You have to put some effort in it, but it’s very rewarding when you see the first payments come through and when you see people paying you on a permanent basis.” (45:23) (Moritz)

It just means receiving information from the non-physical realm.” (19:06) (Laura) “It’s important not to judge. I don’t expect people to have the beliefs that I have because they don’t see the world the way that I do. They literally don’t see ghosts and spirits. They don’t see angels. And that’s ok. You believe what you believe and as long as you don’t attack me, we’re good.” (26:14) (Laura) “I remember when I shifted from my 3D awareness into more expansion and I literally felt like I was dying inside; it’s like having this ego death. It’s often very intense for people. So, if you’re going through that just know you’re not alone and you will be ok.” (35:21) (Laura) “I also saw very quickly that podcasting was being recognized as major media. When I first started it wasn’t, but it grew and it shifted.” (46:34) (Laura) “I also am a big believer in entertainment as an education tool. Sort of like ‘Edu-tainment.’ I think there’s really something to be said about joy, and laughter, and entertainment as a tool.” (56:27) (Laura) Resources MentionedPodcast Junkies Website: https://www.podcastjunkies.com/ (podcastjunkies.com) Podcast Junkies YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Podcastjunkies/ (https://www.youtube.com/c/Podcastjunkies/) Podcast Junkies Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/) Podcast Junkies Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/podcastjunkies (https://www.facebook.com/podcastjunkies) Podcast Junkies Twitter: https://twitter.com/podcast_junkies (https://twitter.com/podcast_junkies) Podcast Junkies LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/podcastjunkies (https://www.linkedin.com/company/podcastjunkies) The Podosphere: https://www.thepodosphere.com/ (https://www.thepodosphere.com/) Podcast Index, Value4Value & NewPodcastApps: https://podcastindex.org/ (https://podcastindex.org/) Laura’s Podcasts: Healing Powers – https://www.healingpowers.net/podcast (https://www.healingpowers.net/podcast) Powers Hour – https://www.powershour.biz/ (https://www.powershour.biz/) Behind The Scenes with...

A lot of people I’ve talked to get conditioned where it’s very hard to go off on your own path because you’ve just worked so long in a structure. I didn’t have any of that baggage, but one of the interesting things that I’ve always thought is that everyone has some sort of Imposter Syndrome. But I don’t know that you can get to this without going through it.” (27:31) (Jeremy) “You hear a lot of people who write regularly talk about how writing really clarifies your own thinking. That, for me, was the case where I thought, ‘At this point, I don’t even care if anybody ever reads anything I write. It’s so valuable to me personally just to keep writing because it was structuring my thoughts.’” (35:37) (Jeremy) “I tend to skew to the philosophical, higher-level strategy side of things than tactical side. But, I’ve also recognized that it’s a lot harder to market and sell vague, philosophical things even if there’s value to it and people like it.” (43:56) (Jeremy) “I think a lot of times it actually comes back to how specific you are about the person that you’re actually trying to reach. Everybody, I’m sure who’s listened to hundreds of episodes of your shows, has heard before that if you create a show for everybody, it’s for nobody. We don’t want to believe that, but it’s the truth.” (55:32) (Jeremy) “For many audiences and many niches, the narrower you go, the more you can potentially charge sponsors.

You can’t see it, but it’s there. And you know it’s there. There’s such a depth to this human experience. And to just get caught up in the day-to-day news cycle is so superficial. And again, everyone is on their journey, and all the phases of the journey are good.” (18:37) (Chris) “Our bodies are what they are. Our soul is pure; it’s part of God. So, our soul is what it is. Our body is what it is. So, the mind is the only thing that we can change, or manipulate, or massage, or improve, or regulate.” (23:09) (Chris) “If you don’t regulate your mind, what happens is your mind runs rampant.

And that’s what I’ve been doing ever since.” (10:55) (Majeed) “I think it’s a testament to the power of the individual’s voice and the platforms we have available to us to broadcast that one man [Joe Rogan] can be more powerful than I’m assuming many of the major networks combined.” (22:15) (Majeed) “Really what I am certain of is the fact that each person that I’ve interviewed has a deeper relationship.

I’m connecting to their world and their community forever, from this point forward.” (31:58) (Majeed) “When I wanted to be a motivational speaker, I thought, ‘How do I figure out how to get paid speaking engagements? And then I discovered that I was getting clients by accident. These were people who were seeing my speech and coming up to me afterwards and asking me questions like, ‘Can I hire you to do a project? Can I hire you to train my team? Can I hire you to be my coach?

You’re the Divine. You are in the seat of the Creator. What are you gonna do with it? And, because you are the Creator, who you are is intrinsically evolution. So you are the whole and you are separate.” (16:39) (Cate) “If we actually look at the habits of modern culture - or what I call conventional culture - the habits of conventional culture leads to chronic inflammation which leads to chronic disease which is the number one killer worldwide.” (24:48) (Cate) “The people who are already turned on got more turned on. There are a few people who are getting turned on who got more turned on. The problem was that the narrative in the media globally was the message that you’re the victim of a virus, which is largely known as Germ Theory.” (30:39) (Cate) “These habits that re-wild us are the ones that really turn on our physiology and our neuroplasticity.

Some stress is when you do the hard thing and that hard thing makes you smarter and more able to do hard things in your life, which really changes the outlook of your future.” (44:39) (Cate) “Urine therapy goes way back. The Buddha talked about it. It’s in the three main ancient Ayurvedic texts from about 2,000 years ago.

That’s one thing the Americans can quite get from us unless they’ve been in the company of Brits for a while. So, we have three traits. We are self-deprecating, sarcastic and we drink like a fish.” (12:10) (Sam) “The businesses I did after came about by chance. I sold a business to Topshop, which is a female clothing retailer aimed at teenagers in the UK. It came out of my daughter's need to find cheap clothing from her budget that we gave her. She was trying to maximize her budget and I thought, ‘I can write a real-time pricing tracker for her.’ So, I did. And out of that came another business.” (32:39) (Sam) “We’re not a music radio station. We’re more of a talk radio station. We have shows on wine, parenting, books. So, we don’t expect someone to listen seven to seven. They dip in and dip out. It means we can build communities and tribes within each show.” (39:05) (Sam) “I get bored quickly. Three years is probably the limit of my interest in something. If it’s not continuously moving forward, if it stagnates after two or three years, I’ll move on.” (41:32) (Sam) “I think PR companies and brand agencies are beginning to wake up to the potential reach and the vertical communities that are being created around podcasts.” (51:04) (Sam) Resources MentionedSam’s LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/samsethi?originalSubdomain=uk (https://www.linkedin.com/in/samsethi?originalSubdomain=uk) Sam’s Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/samtalkstechnology/?hl=en (https://www.instagram.com/samtalkstechnology/?hl=en) Sam’s Twitter – https://twitter.com/samsethi?lang=en (https://twitter.com/samsethi?lang=en) Wine Keller – https://www.winekeller.com/ (https://www.winekeller.com/) TechCrunch Europe – https://techcrunch.com/europe/ (https://techcrunch.com/europe/) River Radio – https://river.radio/ (https://river.radio/) Podland News – https://www.podland.news/ (https://www.podland.news/) Sam’s Podcast: Sam Talks Technology – https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/sam-talks-technology-761256 (https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/sam-talks-technology-761256) Podland News – https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/podland-news-1566455 (https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/podland-news-1566455) Books Mentioned: Steve Jobs – https://www.amazon.com/Steve-Jobs-Walter-Isaacson-audiobook/dp/B07ZMKXMTG/ref=sr_1_1?crid=D624TGQBC1KY&keywords=steve+jobs+walter+isaacson&qid=1654782252&s=books&sprefix=steve+jobs+%2Cstripbooks%2C73&sr=1-1...

I don’t have a thousand business ideas. I have lived experience. And I lived as a B2B marketer for fifteen years. I’ve seen it from every angle. I’ve seen things go well and things not go well. I’ve seen the shiny new objects, the new platforms and the new channels. The one thing that’s always been true to me is human connection. So it was that that innately told me that podcasting and video are good.” (14:17) (Lindsay)  “We integrate with different CRMs, different CMS, with different marketing automation platforms with the B2B marketer in mind. Where are they working now? Where are their teams working? What are they already using that we need to flow into, pull from, push to to make their lives easier and help them get maximum value out of the creative work they’re doing?” (26:30) (Lindsay)  “You need to slow down in order to generate better results. You need to focus on creating really great content, which is probably going to come at the cost of quantity. Better quality, even if it comes at the cost of quantity, can make it really good. But then that’s where this approach of amplification comes into play. Take the time to get really intentional about creating something meaningful.” (28:41) (Lindsay)  “It’s not just about the show, it’s about what was said. It’s about everything in it. It’s about the content that’s there. And then, that’s where you get to get really creative as a marketer around what else am I gonna do with it. How am I gonna use it in lots of different ways to build those connections?” (36:09) (Lindsay)  “One thing that I’ve been advocating for and that we at Casted have been advocating for is that podcasting should be the center [of your marketing strategy]. Your podcast should be the middle and your audio and video content should be the nucleus of everything else you’re doing and we’re starting to see that.” (51:56) (Lindsay) Resources MentionedPodfest Expo Virtual Summit –https://podfestexpo.com/ ( https://podfestexpo.com/) Podcast Index Social Mastodon – https://podcastindex.social/about (https://podcastindex.social/about)  Podcasting 2.0 Podcast – https://podnews.net/podcast/i4ji5...

And so, I ended up leaving the traditional music industry to build software tools for musicians.” (08:07) (Brenden) “I would be speaking at these music conferences and the drum that we would beat was, ‘Direct connection with your listeners. Do not go through platforms as your only way of reaching them.’ Okay, what’s the best way to do direct connection? Email us, put it on your website. How do I build a website? And so I ended up building OneSheet, which was a turnkey website builder for musicians.” (21:19) (Brenden) “I launched, I think, twelve companies, and all of them failed, except PodPage. Most of them didn’t even have a shot to succeed. I just gave myself the total flexibility to just have fun building again and get that muscle back. And I also helped other startups just as a fun way of networking and getting back in the startup world.” (29:03) (Brenden) “In my opinion, Spotify is the only player in the entire podcasting space that are trying to break what’s special about podcasts. Spotify is actively trying to get you to not allow other people to listen unless you listen on Spotify.” (44:05) (Brenden) “The way that we typically work is we try as hard as possible to use third-party tools that are solving a problem really well. I really want to focus on just building the best website. That’s it.” (47:31) (Brenden) “Organic growth and podcasters selling podcasters is by far our best source of new customers.” (53:12) (Brenden) Resources MentionedFullCast Website –https://fullcast.co/ ( https://fullcast.co/) Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group –https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/) Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit –https://podfestexpo.com/ ( https://podfestexpo.com/) Link to The Podosphere –https://www.thepodosphere.com/ ( https://www.thepodosphere.com/) Link to Podcast Index Social Mastodon – https://podcastindex.social/about (https://podcastindex.social/about) Podcasting 2.0 Podcast – https://podnews.net/podcast/i4ji5 (https://podnews.net/podcast/i4ji5) Link to PodNews – https://podnews.net/ (https://podnews.net/) Link to Podcast Index – https://podcastindex.org/ (https://podcastindex.org/) Link to Sounds Profitable – https://soundsprofitable.com/ (https://soundsprofitable.com/)...

Episode SummaryDave Jones is the co-host of Podcasting 2.0 and co-founder (along with Adam Curry) of PodcastIndex.org, a podcast indexing service that empowers podcasters, app creators, developers and listeners to engage in value for value exchanges. Dave has an extensive background in systems administration and building software. Today, Dave and Harry discuss the origin story of PodcastIndex.org, the role that cryptocurrency plays, and the reason he and Adam Curry designed it as a decentralized service. Dave expounds on the importance of podcasters requesting a value exchange from their listeners and explains why the progression of technology has come at a major price.   Episode SponsorFocusrite –http://pcjk.es/focusrite ( http://pcjk.es/focusrite) FullCast –https://fullcast.co/ ( https://fullcast.co/) Key Takeaways04:19 – Dave Jones joins the podcast to discuss his background as a developer and podcaster  18:28 – Dave recalls where his fascination with technology came from  22:35 – Understanding Programming  29:40 – Assembly language, explained   35:45 – The origin story of PodcastIndex.org  45:31 – Designing a decentralized service  57:16 – Value for Value exchanges  59:06 – Harry takes a moment to ask any listeners who have gotten value out of this show to return some value  1:00:01 – What excites Dave most about the future  1:05:55 – Something Dave has changed his mind about recently and the most misunderstood thing about him  1:12:52 – Harry thanks Dave for joining the show and let’s listeners know where they can connect with him and learn more about Podcast Index   Tweetable Quotes“I think, as a general rule, people typically know if they love Programming by the time they’re about twenty, at the most.” (23:04) (Dave)  “The biggest hurdle to overcome with podcast apps, and writing one, is that you have to potentially monitor and request data from millions of feeds. So, you have to be constantly tracking what is going on with these millions of feeds and it’s not an easy process.” (37:23) (Dave)  “We need to have a hand in creating an alternative so that podcast app developers don’t have to spend so much time and hundreds of dollars to get up and running.” (42:47) (Dave)  “That’s a real concern in the world today. There’s real free flow of information being cut off from despot regimes. So, it’s not just about, ‘Can Dave get his latest episode of Podcast Junkies?’ It’s about, ‘Can somebody who is living under a terrible regime somewhere in the world get access to truthful news that they may not otherwise be able to get to.” (49:44) (Dave)  “If the host doesn’t tell the listener at the end, ‘Hey, if you got any value out of this, can you please return me some value?’ If you don’t take that extra step, it doesn’t matter what your payment platform is, you’re not gonna be successful.” (58:26) (Dave)  “I think the power to change our mind is one of the things that makes us human. It may be one of the most defining characteristics of being human, is the ability to change your mind about something. And if you don’t, I feel like you’re not living up to full human potential.” (1:06:07) (Dave)  “The progression of technology is not really progress. In a lot of ways, that progress also brings a drawback. For every benefit, there has been a resultant negative. I think that we’re in a Catch-22 as a society where we are having to actively sacrifice things on the altar of technological advancement. And I don’t think that it’s a net positive.” (1:12:17) (Dave)  Resources MentionedLink to Podfest –https://podfestexpo.com/ ( https://podfestexpo.com/) Link to The Podosphere –https://www.thepodosphere.com/ ( https://www.thepodosphere.com/) Link to Podcast Index Social Mastodon – https://podcastindex.social/about (https://podcastindex.social/about)  Podcasting 2.0 Podcast –...

It just took me a while to weigh those and figure out the way. I think I was a bit short-sided at first.” (30:54) (Jonathan) “Even as an interviewer - I’m not an extremely experienced interviewer - and I just find it better for myself, and often the guest, to have a set structure of questions to fall back on. I know it does sometimes come across as formulaic, but I just find that it’s easier for the guest to prepare and it gives you license to diverge sometimes.

If you can provide the tools to help someone put some sort of thought from their brain out onto the Internet where another person can get value from it, that’s just a magical thing.” (16:13) (Austin) “The more I learned, the more I realized that something is broken here for sure.

I met some very cool women doing this. The conversations were incredible and very emotional.” (16:33) (Marla) “And I thought about it and realized that podcasting is a natural medium for women. We like to have conversations and we’re really good at it.” (28:08) (Marla) “We’re looking to partner with companies that are focused on elevating the voices of women in their companies. And I think that there is definitely a lot of opportunity to go beyond the podcasting industry.” (32:35) (Marla) “The podcast people are the nicest and incredibly collaborative. Yes, everyone says this, but it’s the truth. We all want to help each other. And, I’m not gonna succeed by putting someone else down.

Episode Summary: Husband and wife team Garret and Sabrina are the dinosaur enthusiasts behind I Know Dino, the big dinosaur podcast that covers news, interviews, and discussions about dinosaurs. They love dinosaurs so much that they even had a dinosaur themed wedding! They love connecting with fellow dinosaur enthusiasts, and encourage others to reach out to them via their multiple channels.

And, after doing this for seven years, we have found a way to connect dinosaurs to any conversation.” (19:03) (Sabrina) “It doesn’t take much research to find that a T-Rex was probably a predator. It doesn’t have the types of adaptations you’d expect to see in a scavenger. It has tons of adaptations you’d expect to see in a predator. Other times, you do have to dig a little bit deeper when you’re looking for a question that isn’t as popular as T-Rex.” (31:46) (Garret) “For sponsors, that one was a lightbulb moment when we were talking to a friend who knew much more about marketing than us at the time. And we were planning on going on a road trip where there’s a lot of dinosaur museums. And she said, ‘Why don’t you ask the museums if they want to sponsor you?’” (32:57) (Sabrina) “The community is definitely both of our favorite parts. It’s the most rewarding. Some days it feels harder to get the show out and then you login to Discord or you read some of the messages people have sent and you think, ‘Yes, this is why we’re doing it. I’m ready to go.’” (37:06) (Sabrina) “I think it’s a combination of things. You’ve got more people who want to be paleontologists because of movies like Jurassic Park. But also the technology has gotten better. It’s not that easy to find a fossil but we have better tools now to excavate and prepare it and study them.” (46:01) (Sabrina) Links Mentioned: FullCast Website –https://fullcast.co/ ( https://fullcast.co/) Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group –https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/) Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit –https://podfestexpo.com/ ( https://podfestexpo.com/) Link to The Podosphere - https://www.thepodosphere.com/ (https://www.thepodosphere.com/) Link to Society of Vertebrate...

So, when I interviewed a sleep doctor, he talked about how there are these different chronotypes and we’re all a different chronotype and you can sleep based on your type of biorhythm. So, if I put that in a song, more people will hear about it and more people will study his book.” (19:55) (Jack) “Ignorance is the only crime on the Earth. And if we can solve this, all the other problems will be solved.” (34:55) (Jack) “It will have this trickle-down effect because most people listening to this will just roll their eyes, but because we’re in this reincarnation cycle where, along the other realms, the membership is much higher.

Tristan is also the co-host of The Recorded Content podcast, a show for small, scrappy marketing teams who are looking to launch & grow a successful B2B podcast. Today, Harry and Tristan discuss the challenges of launching, running and growing a podcast. Tristan shares his experiences in content creation and why podcasting is more than just an audio channel. Harry and Tristan talk about the collaborative nature of the podcasting industry and the most unique and niche podcast topics they’ve come across throughout their individual podcast journeys. Finally, Tristan speculates on the future of the industry and what he anticipates in the coming years.

Podcast is more than an audio channel. It’s more than just putting up an audio file, an mp3 file. We view it a bit differently where it’s more of a communication platform where you get video content, audio and written content all from that same genuine conversation.” (14:23) (Tristan) “The podcast community is unique in that everyone is so collaborative. I came up in the video production industry and I would say that there’s a lot of similarities there because it takes a village to put a video together. If you’re not able to work with a lot of people, it’s very difficult to get to the finish line.” (21:18) (Tristan) “The beauty of podcasting is that you’re just never done. There’s always opportunities to test new things. There are always ways to ask different questions and different ways to assemble your podcast.” (24:36) (Tristan) “For me, as a podcast consumer, I jump around all over the place. I’ll binge a show that I haven’t listened to in a while. I’ll listen to eight or ten episodes if I’m going on a long road trip or what have you. But I’m also always looking for new stuff too, a new host or a new topic.” (47:51) (Tristan) Links Mentioned: FullCast Website –https://fullcast.co/ ( https://fullcast.co/) Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group –https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/) Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit –https://podfestexpo.com/ ( https://podfestexpo.com/) Link to The Podosphere - https://www.thepodosphere.com/ (https://www.thepodosphere.com/) Link to SquadCast - https://squadcast.fm/ (https://squadcast.fm/) Link to On Deck No Code - https://www.beondeck.com/no-code (https://www.beondeck.com/no-code) Link to Motion - https://motionagency.io/ (https://motionagency.io/) Tristan’s LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/tristanpelligrino/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/tristanpelligrino/) Tristan’s Twitter - https://twitter.com/tpelligrino (https://twitter.com/tpelligrino) Tristan’s Podcast: Recorded Content - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/recorded-content-helping-b2b-marketers-use-a/id1555122649...

I’m so glad that I saw firsthand how professionals walk that line of understanding that these are humans making decisions, humans are flawed and make mistakes, but at the same time they need to be reminded of the power they have and to use it responsibly.” (18:24) (Eric)  “I had to do a lot of learning on the job. It was a lot of trial and error to figure out what’s the right workflow for this show and what’s the right tone and what do we need to do for a live taping and what do we have to do to get the guests booked, all the moving pieces that go into making a podcast.” (37:05) (Eric)  “The idea is A, I want to make a successful show, something that I can be really proud of.

And I think if you have an objective way to measure the goal that you want, then really the in-between doesn’t matter.” (15:14) (Rob)  “The biggest thing that drove me into app developing was actually two things. One, I read an article on Life Hacker that said this is our perfect to do list app. So, in my young brain I’m thinking, ‘Right, if I build this app, that’s the million dollar idea.’ I started to kinda learn app development from there. I didn’t really make a dent, but what it taught me was that I could do some of it.” (25:09) (Rob) “I approached it [Coffee & Coding] pretty much the same way that I approach my apps, which is that I build stuff that I want. So I really wanted to listen to a show that was about app development but it wasn’t technical.” (30:39) (Rob) “You want to get the best conversation from them.

“My goal is really to get the questions to my guest. It’s based on the concept that if you’re authentic to yourself and you take an intentional journey as to who you are as a leader, then you’re also going to be successful.” (00:00) (Dino) “The idea of working until I had made enough money to just do the things that I wanted to do was not a feasible plan. So I made a decision to go and start out on my own as a marketing consultant with the idea that sixty percent of my time would be dedicated to that and the other forty percent would be dedicated to managing my wife’s career as a musician, spending more time with my kids and doing the things I love doing.” (18:51) (Dino) “There’s a very important balance when you’re building a service practice, whether it’s a consulting practice or an agency. And that is that you need to sell projects where on one hand you have the ability to execute and you’re good at, but there also needs to be something new that you haven’t done because that’s how you build the capabilities of the firm.” (24:39) (Dino) “I felt that a podcast was essentially the place where I could be my true self and just create the podcast and share the content to really express what I believe about how leadership works and operates.” (30:47) (Dino) “The Arts are a really difficult world from a success standpoint. And the people who end up staying for the duration are the people that are rewarded by the creative process.” (46:26) (Dino) “Somebody recently said, ‘People who invest money to save time have a longer career in business than people who invest time to save money.’” (53:12) (Dino)

“First, think about what’s gonna get you excited because you’re gonna be talking for hours with people about this stuff. So you have to be excited about it. You have to know the space enough where you have thoughtful conversations if you’re going to be inviting guests onto your podcast.” (10:21) (Anna) “I was working at a company and I thought, ‘I know I’m doing marketing, but I’m looking for a different kind of marketing.’ And so that’s when I went to work in the startup world and I immediately loved it. I loved how impactful it could be right away. I loved how messy it could be and I loved what marketing meant at a startup.” (12:42) (Anna) “Being strategic, being more focused, I knew that I wanted to do that right away. So, for me, for my business it was figuring out who is my target buyer, what do they care about, what problems do they have? And I’m kind of close to that already because I am a Marketer at a startup.” (18:27) (Anna) “The most important thing for content creation and creating awareness around your business or product is finding out what your target audience cares about, what is the actual content your gonna give them and what channels.” (24:18) (Anna) “I wish I had access to a network of people that work in startups and are in marketing soI could ask them questions. And now I actually can because I have a platform.”(37:08)(Anna)

But if you don’t, I think there are a lot of other opportunities worthy of pursuing today.” (13:39) (Todd) “My department started to thrive and now my department was growing by leaps and bounds. My department became the poster child for the entire company. And it was right around the time when I was on top that I thought I want to share with other folks outside of the fitness industry what it is that I learned inside these clubs.” (26:44) (Todd) “I think that, as always, in every market different gets attention. Better doesn’t always get attention. Different gets attention.” (31:25) (Todd) “The heart and soul of marketing is ultimately when you turn a prospect’s desire for a result, for an outcome, for a change, for a transformation, into demand for your product or service before you even talk about your product or service.” (36:40) (Todd) “When I teach, when I coach, when I guide I always tell people, ‘I’m gonna treat your business like it’s my own. I’m not gonna tell you the things you want to hear. I’m gonna tell you the things you need to hear.’” (45:42) (Todd) “Live a life of authenticity. Be who you are. Be you. Do you. Live your life. You want to dress a certain way? Do your thing. Don’t try to fit in. If you’ve got an opinion or feeling, be you.

“One of the things I’ve learned in the last third of my career, the most recent third, is to be personal with my work and to be honest, which enhances what I do.” (13:25) (Mat) “It occurred to me that coming from two different and somewhat complementary perspectives of a writer and a performer, that we were circling the same topic in a way but coming at it from a different direction.” (17:38) (Bill) “What happened was somebody swooped in and did this other podcast while I was dealing with this other thing in my life. The performer’s nightmare - one of them. And so I was sort of casting around for a new idea for a podcast and these videos of Mat’s kind of tipped me over to this notion of creativity.” (23:50) (Bill) “I’m a performer. I’m a maker. I’m a writer. But at heart, all of this is based around the fact that I am a circus act. I am a variety performer. I do tricks. My hands can do things. So, it’s easy to therefore think that that’s the one thing that I’m good at, doing tricks.” (27:07) (Mat) “It’s been such a weird eighteen months. It really has in all sorts of ways. And one of the things we talk about is the ways in which a species level event affects everything, by definition. One of the new relationships that I formed during this period has been with Mat who, I’ll say again, I have never met face-to-face.” (32:23) (Bill) “The time when the Arts are interesting and are moving to people is when you can be honest, you can be authentic and you can be presenting as close to the real you as you can. That’s what makes great art, being truthful and authentic.” (38:35) (Mat) “The creativity of communication is the communication of creativity.” (42:13) (Bill)

Harry welcomes to the show, executive producer and podcast host, Jen Briney. Jen is the host of the Congressional Dish Podcast, a twice-monthly show that aims to draw attention to where the American people truly have power: Congress. From the perspective of a fed up taxpayer with no allegiance to any political party, Jen fills her listeners in on the must-know information about what our representatives do AFTER the elections and how their actions can and will affect our day to day lives. In this episode, Harry and Jen talk about the genesis of Jen’s Congressional Dish podcast and why it’s focused more on government than politics. Have you ever wondered why we focus more on the Presidency than Congress, the branch of government that writes, debates and passes the bills that become laws that impact our daily lives? Jen talks about crypto, the political awakening that is happening in our society today and the power of being informed.   THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS!  http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) | https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast)   KEY TAKEAWAYS  06:36 – Harry welcomes back to the show Jen Briney, who shares her thoughts on COVID-19 and the state of the podcast industry 19:29 – A podcast about government, not politics 22:06 – Jen talks about her appearance on the Bad Faith Podcast and how it grew her own audience 34:35 – Cryptocurrency and podcast conferences 47:46 – How the fallout from January 6th has the potential to impact our personal lives 56:02 – The power you get from being informed 59:06 – Why hope is on the horizon and the awakening that is happening in American society 1:07:42 – Plans on expanding Congressional Dish 1:18:02 – Jen talks about her second podcast 1:15:26 – Harry thanks Jen for joining the show and let’s listeners know where they can connect with her   TWEETABLE QUOTES  “The show kept going and I say that my biggest victory during the Trump years is that I didn’t quit.” (20:55) (Jen) “I have no allegiance to the political parties. I have no ideology. I can agree with people all over the political spectrum because I think it’s all a lie. I can find common ground with just about any American on something and yet we’re told we’re the most polarized we’ve ever been. I approach this podcast as I want to know what’s being done with my money and in my name. It’s that simple.” (27:09) (Jen) “I’m amazed that I’m a professional podcaster. It was one of those things where the podcast was a way for me to talk about government. I love reading about the bills and laws. What I don’t love is the tech and figuring out where the microphone goes.” (38:35) (Jen) “When I look at January 6th , I’m looking at the bills they’re writing because of it, which are going to expand spying powers and give more power to the FBI and give more money to the Capitol police.” (48:35) (Jen) “I want to be informed about what’s really going on in the world. I want to know because I feel like there’s a lot of power in that. It’s helped me financially. It’s helped me make decisions about what I want to do with my life.” (56:02) (Jen) “There’s an awareness now in our population that we are being systematically lied to by these two parties.” (1:00:02) (Jen)   RESOURCES MENTIONED  https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-briney-7022a6104/ (Jen’s LinkedIn) https://congressionaldish.com/ (Jen’s Website) https://twitter.com/JenBriney (Jen’s Twitter) https://www.instagram.com/jenbriney/?hl=en (Jen’s Instagram) https://www.patreon.com/CongressionalDish (Jen’s Patreon Page) https://web.facebook.com/CongressionalDish/?_rdc=1&_rdr (Congressional Dish Facebook )   Jen’s Podcasts:   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/congressional-dish/id572967793 (Congressional Dish Podcast )...

If you’re going to teach me something, I need to have a use for it.” (19:11) “Everybody on the left who thinks that they’re being rational are not being rational. They are, at best, partially rational or pseudo-rational. So, the project I’m working on now is a logic primer for people to train people in actual logic so they can clean up their own act and use it better.” (28:13) “There’s so many things in a comedy club environment that are made technologically for people to laugh. All you have to do is say something kinda funny and they want to laugh. If you can actually hit funny, it just explodes.” (42:01) “I love great conversations. For me, when I’m the podcast interviewer, I like to get into the space of ‘what am I really interested in here?’” (52:46) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.amazon.com/21-Coliseums-Persuasion-Winning-Knowing/dp/0983361649 (Dan’s Book) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH0nDs0FDuwAgXucdB_ye9w (Dan’s YouTube Channel) https://www.linkedin.com/in/dan-french-ph-d-6ba9059/ (Dan’s LinkedIn) https://www.instagram.com/rhetoric_warriors/ (Dan’s Instagram) https://www.facebook.com/RhetoricWarriors (Dan’s Facebook) https://twitter.com/RhetoricWar (Dan’s Twitter) https://rhetoricwarriors.com/podcast-2/ (Dan’s Podcast) https://rhetoricwarriors.com/ (Rhetoric Warriors Website) https://robbwolf.com/shop-old/products/the-paleo-solution-the-original-human-diet/ (Link to Robb Wolf’s Website)

I’m a people person.” (26:08) “I’m talking about just being able to do this as a show, have advertisers and make it a stable show. Will it ever be that way? I don’t know. But, what drives me is just the collaboration with other podcasters. I want to be involved in the podcasting community as much as I can.” (31:51) “I love talking to people. It’s literally a creative outlet for me and I just love doing it. I love talking to all these people. It’s so much more than just getting somebody famous on. If it wasn’t for that show, I probably would not be having these kinds of conversations with these people ever. So, for me, it’s about creating an experience and creating something that I can be proud of.” (43:15) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/brett-allan-009458168/ (Brett’s LinkedIn) https://www.instagram.com/brettallanshow/ (Brett’s Instagram) https://www.facebook.com/brettallanshow (Brett’s Facebook) https://twitter.com/brettallanshow (Brett’s Twitter) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-brett-allan-show/id1486122533 (Brett’s Podcast) https://www.brettallanshow.com/ (Brett’s Website) Other Books Mentioned: https://www.amazon.com/Stop-Chasing-Influencers-Building-Business-ebook/dp/B017JCNSXW (Stop Chasing Influencers) https://www.amazon.com/Make-Noise-Creators-Podcasting-Storytelling-ebook/dp/B07NMRR265/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=make+noise&qid=1624377182&s=digital-text&sr=1-1 (Make Noise)

06:00 – Harry welcomes back to the show, Scott Miller, who speaks to how the global pandemic impacted him and what motivated him to write a second book 17:37 – How Scott handled educating his children on preparedness amidst this pandemic 20:28 – Scott speaks to the ten-part Mess to Success Series he’s currently working on 31:19 – Scott talks about the concept of finding the smallest viable market 33:43 – How Scott gets the most value out of his podcast guests 36:23 – The importance of friending your competition and hiring people who are smarter than you 41:20 – Scott recalls some of the best advice he’s received from his team and how he handles controversial guests 48:23 – Scott and Harry talk about the value of engaging in civil discussions with those you don’t necessarily agree with 51:22 – Scott stresses why it’s vital to develop your storytelling craft 58:14 – Scott reflects on where he is currently in the story of Scott Miller 1:01:00 – Harry thanks Scott for joining the show TWEETABLES“I worked twenty-five years inside of a corporate giant. But I think the pandemic, like for all of us, changed everybody’s values. So, I want to spend the next half of my career teaching people the lessons that I’ve learned.” (11:27) “All that matters is our relationships and helping each other. That’s all that matters.” (19:51) “Instead of net fishing, you should be spear fishing. How do you create the most successful podcast with the fewest number of listeners?” (31:59) “Leadership is a broad category. Leadership is culture. Leadership is sales. Leadership is profit. Leadership is customers. Leadership is marketing. Leadership is brand.” (34:27) “I also just think there’s two types of mindsets, a scarce mindset and an abundance mindset. I just do not believe that the podcast I host is smaller because you host your podcast.” (37:57) “I do not like to kick people when they’re down. If someone deserves to be kicked, I’ll call them up and kick them. And I won’t tell you that I kicked them. Or I won’t vote for them. But I generally believe that if someone is coming on my podcast, my job is to give them a platform where they can share what it is they’re talking about. I’m not a journalist, I’m a podcast host.” (47:10) “You learn, as a podcast host, bruise hard, heal fast. You cannot serve all people all the time.” (50:41) “Storytelling is such a valuable skill for CEOs, for CFOs. What is our story? Where are we going? How are you part of that? What is the antagonist? How can you be part of the solution? What does success look like? What does it feel like? Same as a podcast guest.” (54:24) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottmillerj1/ (Scott’s LinkedIn) https://player.fm/podcasts/Scott-Miller (Scott’s Podcasts) https://www.scottjeffreymiller.com/ (Scott’s Website) Scott’s Books: https://www.amazon.com/Management-Mess-Leadership-Success-Challenges/dp/1642500887/ref=asc_df_1642500887?tag=bingshoppinga-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=79989551466252&hvnetw=o&hvqmt=e&hvbmt=be&hvdev=c&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=&hvtargid=pla-4583589106058310&psc=1 (Management Mess to Leadership Success) https://www.amazon.com/Marketing-Mess-Brand-Success-Organizations/dp/1642503800/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&qid=1623725804&refinements=p_27%3AScott+Jeffrey+Miller&s=books&sr=1-2&text=Scott+Jeffrey+Miller (Marketing Mess to Brand Succes) Other Books Mentioned: https://www.amazon.com/Antifragile-Nassim-Nicholas-Taleb-audiobook/dp/B00A2ZIZYQ/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=antifragile&qid=1623725191&sr=8-1 (Antifragile)...

And that was when it started clicking with me the connection you could still feel with a podcast audience if you are listening. Then when the opportunity came up for a podcasting company I thought this is something that would be really interesting.” (11:54) “There was a period where we [Buzzsprout] outranked Spotify for how to get a podcast on Spotify.” (18:17) “Almost everything we’ve ever done is we want to make it easier for people who are starting because the bet we were putting on podcasting was that it was gonna grow.” (20:46) “That’s what the Podcasting Index is trying to do now is help bring multiple hosts together, multiple apps together, listeners, everybody in the ecosystem.” (41:09) “Podcasts are much, much, much harder to grow than any other media type that I’ve ever engaged with.” (46:51) “Over the past seven years of being involved in this space, I’m becoming more and more optimistic that the content creators will prevail.” (54:49) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/albanbrooke (Alban’s LinkedIn) https://www.buzzsprout.com/ (Buzzsprout Website) http://podclock.launchrock.com/ (Link to Podclock) https://twitter.com/AlbanBrooke (Alban’s Twitter) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

06:00 – Harry welcomes Evo Terra back to the podcast recap his journey traveling abroad and what brought him back home  10:14 – Evo speaks to the decision to leave corporate life and start his own podcast consulting company  17:32 – How Evo structures his work week and how he’s constantly learning from new generations  24:25 – Evo speaks to the mental shift that has come with age  30:02 – The importance of slowing down from time to time  31:33 – Evo talks about his show, Podcast Pontifications and what goes into the production process  41:53 – Evo speaks to the benefits of having such a meticulous and specific process  43:43 – How comedians have influenced Evo’s podcasting style  53:59 – Evo speculates on the future of podcasting  57:18 – Harry thanks Evo for joining the show, and let’s listeners know where they can connect with him  58:14 – Something Evo has changed his mind about recently TWEETABLES“The biggest thing I miss from traveling abroad is not being the weirdo. What I mean by that is every country I go to, I’m able to just sit on a bus, on a train, in a coffee shop, and the words around me aren’t words that I’m used to hearing. And, to me, to be able to disappear into that strangeness is great.” (07:56) “I have always tried to be cognizant of the fact that I may have the knowledge and the skills, but I don’t have the only way to do things. So I always like to learn from a generation or two or three below me. The way you’re doing things is the way things will be done. What I’m doing now is going to fade away and I get that. So, I’ve always tried to be open to doing things the new generation’s way.” (22:23) “For all the new podcast listeners out there, my ten minute long episode takes me three and a half hours to produce.” (35:12) “Comedians, their delivery is the greatest thing. It’s all about timing and building anticipation. So, when I am in presentation mode, you get a very different Evo than you’re getting right here. When I’m performing, I role back onto those people who are true performers.” (44:58) “Being able to generate content that is specific to you, where you are, or things important in your life that comes in different than things that are important to me, that’s pretty cool.” (52:30) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/evoterra/ (Evo’s LinkedIn) https://www.evoterra.com (Evo’s Website) https://simpler.media/ (Simpler Media Website) https://podcastpontifications.com (Podcast Pontifications Website) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/podcast-pontifications/id1438981144 (Evo’s Podcast) https://twitter.com/evoterra (Evo’s Twitter) https://podcastjunkies.com/evo-terra-interview/ (Evo’s First Visit to Podcast Junkies) https://podcastindex.org/ (Podcast Index ) http://newpodcastapps.com/ (NewPodcastApps ) https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZEVXbfU16Bu3hLvu (Spotify’s Release Radar Playlist) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

To some extent, we’re all influencers to somebody else and people are listening to us. And if people are listening to what we have to say and if you’re spouting this stuff that’s garbage and not realistic, you can influence somebody to make a poor decision in their life.” (07:42) “We want to be thought of and associated as a premier content creator.” (18:57) “We believe very heavily that private podcasting is the future of where our company is going and, I think, a big part of the industry is expanding to.” (24:05) “If you know the value of yourself and the show and the people that you’re approaching about sponsorship, you’ll have a much easier job of selling sponsorship.” (32:01) “With the background at Podcast Motor, we’ve been working with content creators a lot. One of the simple things we’ve done is brought on a producer in-house. We’ve become a small professional services arm that does editing and production. And now we have a creative person that works with customers and that’s the person who’s creating the show for us.” (32:55) “That’s one of the coolest things about this space is that so many people are willing to hop on a call just to chat and help you with things.” (42:33) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/craig-hewitt-78386a66/ (Craig’s LinkedIn) Craig’s Email https://www.craighewitt.me/ (Craig’s Website ) https://castos.com/ (Castos’ Website) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/seeking-scale/id1534772991 (Craig’s Podcast) https://www.meetup.com/the-nomadic-entrepreneur/events/ (Link to The Nomadic Entrepreneur) https://www.linkedin.com/in/steveprattca/?originalSubdomain=ca (Link to Steve Pratt’s LinkedIn) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/3-clips-by-castos/id1488946777 (Link to 3 Clips Podcast) https://audience.castos.com/ (Link to Audience Podcast) https://zapier.com/ (Link to Zapier) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

I just enjoyed the act of doing that, learning something new, always being challenged.” (07:24) “That’s what made me decide to start a podcast. It was the side hustle to kind of scratch that itch of doing something that I felt that I was actually creating in real-time and could leave an impact with.” (14:19) “I look back now and I think what I love the most about it was the process of finding the guest, recording, editing, finding out the business side of it. I can even remember registering for an LLC and thoroughly enjoying it. Sure I was just starting a podcast, but I was starting a business. That was a practice for what my future was gonna look like.” (18:00) “I’m surprised how many people still don’t understand podcasting. One out of three people I tell don’t know what a podcast is or have never listened to one.” (30:50) “For me it all stems back to my faith. I’m really driven by that and it’s the most important thing in my life.” (35:07) “I take everyone really seriously because it’s the way I’d want to be treated.

What I wanted to learn from a mentor twenty odd years ago is quite different from what I want to learn today. It’s the nuanced, it’s the subtly of the behavior or the skill that you want to practice and learn from.” (09:23) “Failure isn’t about disaster. Failure is about learning and picking yourself up and making sure you don’t make the same mistake twice.” (16:19) “I quite like to not necessarily give my sole attention to the podcast when I’m having that experience. But I think there’s something really important about movement. Listening and movement is a really potent combination, I find.” (22:28) “Neuro being your brain, your mind, linguistic being the language you’re speaking, and the programming is how are you programming the language you’re using. I also then think about this idea of modeling excellence. So, if I see somebody that’s really great at a particular skill or behaving in a particular way, there’s a whole series of questions that help to uncover what it is they’re doing, often unconsciously.” (24:50) “I think that’s what podcast hosts can also do is to be able to help the guest get out of their own way and uncover some new insight and thinking. And that’s where those value-added moments will appear in the podcast.” (32:03) “The boundary gives you focus and it gives you intention to say, ‘in these episodes, this is the attention we’re trying to achieve here.’ And that’s how coaching works.” (37:48) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/suestockdale/ (Sue’s LinkedIn) https://suestockdale.com/ (Sue’s Website) https://www.accesstoinspiration.org/ (Access to Inspiration Website) https://twitter.com/suestockdale (Sue’s Twitter) https://www.facebook.com/SueStockdalespeaker/ (Sue’s Facebook ) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/access-to-inspiration/id1489967644 (Sue’s Podcast) https://www.amazon.com/Blyton-Famous-Books-Collection-Complete/dp/1444931016 (Link to The Famous Five Book Series) https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Complete-Library-Collection-Adventure/dp/9369764275/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=the+secret+seven&qid=1619565230&s=books&sr=1-3 (Link to The Secret Seven Book Series) https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006qnmr (Link to Desert Island Discs Podcast) https://www.accesstoinspiration.org/podcast/john-david-f-bartoe-an-astronaut-going-into-space/ (Link to Access to...

There’s so many interesting and exciting ways to tell a story in the first place.” (09:50) “I spent a long time in the world of creating movements, which led me down this road of kinda seeing firsthand how the world has lost empathy through the lens of online movements. That’s really become obvious in the world in the last year or two.” (23:16) “Conversations is the only tool we have, short of killing each other, to be perfectly blunt. And if we don’t. And our toolset for conversation has expanded. I would venture to guess that there’s an exponential six month over six month increase in the amount of nuance that has to go into a particular public conversation.” (27:50) “I think there’s something really powerful about making external the internal experience.” (33:17) “I’m obsessed with that moment of people experiencing what you put into the world.” (40:27) “Most stories that people have about travel come from this idea of ‘went somewhere, found myself in a bad position and somebody saved my ass.’ That’s generally the through line. And the learning there is that people tend to be awesome the world over.” (44:49) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.instagram.com/heywillconway/ (Will’s Instagram) https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamwconway/ (Will’s LinkedIn) https://twitter.com/heywillconway (Will’s Twitter) https://www.facebook.com/heywillconway (Will’s Facebook) https://www.heybaggageclaim.com/ (Will’s Podcast) Contact Will about the Podcast – (332) 877-9540 (keyword ‘POD’) https://www.instagram.com/baggageclaimpod/ (Baggage Claim Instagram) https://www.linkedin.com/company/heybaggageclaim/ (Baggage Claim LinkedIn) https://twitter.com/heybaggageclaim (Baggage Claim Twitter) https://www.facebook.com/heybaggageclaim (Baggage Claim Facebook) https://nationbuilder.com/start_free_trial (Link to Nation Builder) https://apps.apple.com/us/app/clubhouse-drop-in-audio-chat/id1503133294 (Link to Clubhouse) https://bunches.chat/$podcastjunkies (Link to Bunches) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

There’s such a strong bond and shield that people put around their family members which I find to be very interesting.” (16:57) “I love the banter between two people. I love two people having a discussion because I feel like someone can bring something out of you that you might not necessarily say on the microphone if you’re by yourself.” (21:56) “For me, having a travel podcast I made it a point that this is not going to discourage me. I’m gonna find a way to keep putting out content. I’m gonna keep making episodes. I don’t want to beat the COVID thing to death. I have just been trying to think about traveling in different ways.” (32:20) “When I listen to a podcast where two people are talking, I want to feel like I’m in the same room as them and I want to feel like I’m a part of the conversation.” (43:10) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/jarika-johnson/ (Jarika’s LinkedIn) https://www.blackpackingpodcast.com/ (Jarika’s Podcast) https://www.instagram.com/blackpackingpodcast/ (Blackpacking Instagram) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMd1-b66Wiubzq6FdjqVprg (Blackpacking YouTube Channel ) https://twitter.com/blackpackingpod (Blackpacking Twitter) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

I want to be informed. But I also don’t want to spend hours upon hours, because everything you put out there you have a responsibility for the energy you put out into the world. And so if you put something into the world that fuels fear, anxiety, hate, that impacts people. So, I have become more intentional, more selective of curating my own feeds.” (24:58) “I think there’s value in the intimacy of being with someone in their ears on a long drive or walk.” (26:39) “What I learned at Oprah is before you pitch any interview, before you begin any interview, before you have an idea, you stop and you ask yourself, ‘What is my intention?’” (35:41) “We tell very high-stakes stories with really strong beginnings, middles and ends. And, most importantly, is that there is wisdom extracted on the other end. People often go through incredibly messy things and find a new meaning or perspective on the other end.” (43:24) “Our guests are categorically brave because they share hard truths. They talk about things that are hard with the right intention, which is to be of service to others.” (52:25) “Some of us have truths that we hide. And some of our guests, their hardest, darkest days are how the world defines them and they can’t hide them.” (58:10) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Link to Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimi-culp-7023806/ (Kimi’s LinkedIn) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/all-the-wiser/id1456685083 (Kimi’s Podcast) https://www.instagram.com/kimiculp/ (Kimi’s Instagram) https://www.instagram.com/allthewiserpodcast/ (All the Wiser Instagram) https://twitter.com/Allthewiserpod (All the Wiser Twitter) https://www.facebook.com/AllTheWiserPodcast/? __xts__[0]=68.ARDCVLal95yesDEgSqbyTzqG0ipV3hW7NB8w0NpzwDmL1FuTiFp45s STeDvB5cSC44dGvlEVaBkeGrzvQZy-qAp1xOeR_GLJRnWkTkg0uqaQ- eskkE6VrU2orJ5GFeLCrN67BHf8iqhwbC1AQbFZQDW6M49dzhzgZYsoXiKA9oFgouKs N7Ugbqo0SYjue- TjlpfhqPVVHI9QA_Ld4pmOiL9qck_Ocdt0CIOT_0RSvEWH_J4A2oCIMtJI7UPNx0d85v0 USxUYgfF75YveI7bXrlIsSqyvohD9fgWoIrrMSXaigqMeIvhXcw (All the Wiser Facebook) https://podcastersparadise.com/ (Link to Podcasters’ Paradise) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

But there’s also a very good chance that they won’t go the way you expect. So just know that going into it and think about your own financial situation. Go into it eyes wide open.” (22:01) (Allison) “It was really important to me that we also did outbound efforts to get in front of founders and that we took all the barriers down for a founder to get in front of us.” (28:36) (Allison) “There’s been such a need for escapism since Covid started and also just this boredom that people feel and trying to figure out how to fill all of the time where you’re at home.” (37:09) (Darrin) “What really excites me just thinking about it through an Audible-specific lens is connecting creators with listeners.” (42:35) (Darrin) “What has been exciting about all of this over the past year is that so many more people know what a podcast is. I think for us, so many more people are excited about spoken word audio and even understand now what Audible is doing. And so, if they’re using Audible and Clubhouse and other apps, that’s exciting.” (48:25) (Darrin) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.joinclubhouse.com/club/podcast-junkies (Podcast Junkies on Clubhouse) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.audible.com/ (Link to Audible) https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonstrousewilliams/ (Allison’s LinkedIn) https://www.linkedin.com/in/darrin-bedol/ (Darrin’s LinkedIn) https://www.audible.com/about/newsroom/newark-working-kitchens-delivers-more-than-500-000-meals/ (Newark Working Kitchen) https://www.newarkventurepartners.com/blog (Newark Venture Partners Blog & Newsletter) https://www.audible.com/ep/freetrial-plus? source_code=GO1DH13310082090P3&device=d&cvosrc=ppc.google.audible%20plus %20catalog&cvo_campaign=11246704272&cvo_crid=474750519802&Matchtype=e&gc lid=CjwKCAjwxuuCBhATEiwAIIIz0fKKeVrBAzsr6Fhd4umGniD3U3DEP3p7FYM_OFIuth VKtYAC3E9OVhoCp5MQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds (Audible Plus Catalog) Podcasts Mentioned https://www.audible.com/pd/Donor-9623-Podcast/B08GC5KWW8?

You have to make them yourself.” (10:00) “I don’t form relationships with people because of their resume of because of the chair that they’re sitting in because I know all of that can change. I really look to connect with people.” (12:45) “Television? That’s not the stakes. Making these deadlines? That’s not the stakes. The stakes are real relationships, who you choose to spend your life with and how you choose to spend it. And the fact that with a podcast that I make right here from my house I can change people’s lives like that? Why wouldn’t everyone be podcasting?” (20:19) “When you’re making content, you’re part of something bigger. And it’s not just about being on the mic or being the face of whatever the production is. It’s about being a part of the whole and making something together.” (23:15) “If you are interested in growth, it sure as hell matters what Apple Podcasts thinks of your show.” (36:19) “That is honestly one of the biggest gifts that podcasting has given me is improving my listening ability.” (44:54) “That’s the other amazing thing about podcasting. I feel like I learn something every time I sit and have a conversation with someone. I get something out of it that enhances my life as well.” (55:51) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/damona/ (Damona’s LinkedIn) https://damonahoffman.com/ (Damona’s Website) https://www.instagram.com/damonahoffman/ (Damona’s Instagram) https://twitter.com/DamonaHoffman (Damona’s Twitter) https://www.facebook.com/DamonaHoffman (Damona’s Facebook) Damona’s Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dates-mates-with-damona- hoffman/id606100490?mt=2 (Dates & Mates) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i-make-a-living/id1296672479 (I Make a Living) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

And I think that Austin is hot on everybody’s list.” (07:53)   “I think that podcasting can help a lot of that. I think that can be the neat aspect of it where we’re gonna be able to see different ways that these business owners recovered or even just tell their story.” (11:49)   “I think that kids are ultimately resilient, but I think that we’re gonna see a big impact. I think these kids are going to grow up differently from how we grew up and I think it’s on us to make sure that we make space to help them.” (14:29)   “I think that there’s a lot of value in his [Tim Ferriss’] content and I think he’s done a lot for the podcasting space. It’s easy for people to dismiss him sometimes, but I’m thankful for what I’ve learned from him.” (31:44)   “And it was really cool to take this technology that I was obsessed with and make it a career and look at ways to help people monetize that didn’t destroy their creativity. I would always push for other ways to go about it. Don’t just throw a banner there. Really be aware of your customer and make sure you aren’t alienating them. It was a natural fit into podcasting.” (41:50)   “The niche is the really interesting part. I don’t want to hear anybody else’s opinions about something that’s broad that I can get from places that are respected and well developed. I do want to hear about topics that are very specific.” (53:37)  THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryanbarletta/ (Bryan’s LinkedIn) Bryan’s Email  https://twitter.com/HighFiveRPG (Bryan’s Twitter) https://soundsprofitable.com/ (Bryan’s Website) https://link.chtbl.com/vM0NLjg6 (Bryan’s Podcast) http://outliercs.com/ (Outlier Podcast Conference) https://podcastindex.org/ (Podcast Index) https://letter.wiki/ (Letter Wiki) https://yappaapp.com/ (Yappa) https://rumble.studio/ (Rumble Studio) https://www.magellan.ai/resources/reports/the-podscape (Magellan AI) http://thrillingadventurehour.com/ (The Thrilling Adventure Hour Podcast) https://tim.blog/podcast/ (Tim Ferriss Podcast) https://podnews.net/ (PodNews) https://www.podland.news/ (Podland News Podcast) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

And that’s a huge innovation that was now made available to everyone whereas before that you’d have to ask your guest to record it on their side. Now it’s much more seamless.” (37:14)   “I think of it [Clubhouse] as a podcaster’s playground. We already know we love audio. So to be able to connect to people through audio, there’s really an authenticity to that.” (45:51)   “I love the social impact space. But it will not serve me and the many people who will come after me unless they find a viable path.

And I didn’t even understand it. But when I think about surfing and seeing someone who looks like you doing it, you feel like you can do it.” (11:33)   “The ocean also helped me because in the ocean I found answers that I could never find with a pen and paper.” (16:52)   “That’s what a podcast is. It’s just the interview, which was my favorite part of journalism and the part I think I excelled at the best.” (22:03)   “I’m more methodical now about how I make my decisions. I say, ‘No’ more. I say ‘Yes’ to things that matter and, ‘No’ to everything else.” (24:39)   “Interviewing was easy; getting guests was no problem. I think just the technical part of launching and all the little things you have to do I was a little blown away by. And then also letting go. You were really good at coaching me to just put it out there even if it isn’t perfect.” (25:28)   “We’ve lost our collective sense of humor as a country. Laughter is really important medicine along with nutrition and sleep which is what I’m exploring in this new show.” (33:59)   “For my health show, I’ve identified what do I eat, what do I drink, what do I wear, what do I like, what brings me joy?

The traditional textbook definition is someone who has learned and is interested in many different areas. And that means a deep level of knowledge.” (11:49) “When I find people to interview, the thing I look for is if they’re multidisciplinary. So, if they have a main specialty and they’re a specialist – even a hyper specialist – they’re bound to have some sort of hobby or maybe they’re a podcaster like us.” (18:09) “One of my main endeavors right now is trying to get this idea of a multidisciplinary spectrum out there.” (22:22) “I would honestly say I have often gotten a lot of existential crises. And it’s hard to deal with those, especially when they hit you hard.” (33:59) “First and foremost, I love learning. And since I couldn’t find a college that I wanted to go to, I pursued my own education and self-development.” (38:03) “Being a polymath individually is gonna have a lot of different topics.

06:00 – Harry welcomes Stacey Simms to the podcast to discuss her podcast origin story, when she started creating content on the Internet and how that morphed into the Diabetes Connections podcast   15:37 – Stacey speaks to her background in journalism including her fondest memory   21:33 – Stacey shares the inspiration to start Diabetes Connections and the differences between radio and podcasting   29:01 – Stacey explains why the topic of diabetes is so close to her heart and how she earned the tongue-in-cheek title of ‘World’s Worst Diabetes Mom’   34:41 – How Stacey structures her podcast and how she attracted sponsors   41:16 – Harry and Stacey discuss the business side of podcasting   49:39 – How Stacey has grown as a podcast interviewer   55:40 – What is something that Stacey has changed her mind about recently and the most misunderstood thing about Stacey   1:02:33 – Harry thanks Stacey for joining the show, and let’s listeners know where they can connect with her TWEETABLES“Over time, that’s what led me to start my podcast in 2015. I started Diabetes Connections in the summer of 2015 because – like a lot of people who listen to podcasts – I realized that the one I wanted didn’t exist and I had to create it myself.” (13:28)   “When you’re in radio and television, crazy funny things happen, and you just go with it.” (20:10)   “One of the philosophies I brought over from radio was put your listeners first. Just put your listeners first in any decision you’re trying to make and the decisions will be extremely easy. And that helps me along the way.” (26:36)   “I had about 125 listeners per episode after four weeks. But I knew that those were very valuable listeners because they’re older, they have a lot of money and they want to spend it.” (38:28)   “I would like to do a talk or be on a panel about selling your show without selling your soul. I think above board ethics help you, help your show and help your listeners.” (45:11)   “One place that I’ve grown is in really letting my interviewees breath. I’m less afraid of silence than I was in the beginning.” (49:51)   “It’s one of the wonderful things about podcasting in that you really can be less than perfect if you’re trying and you’re genuine and you’re open.” (54:38)  THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite  ) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://diabetes-connections.com/ (Stacey’s Podcast) https://diabetes-connections.com/ (Diabetes Connections Website) Stacey’s Books:  https://www.amazon.com/Worlds-Worst-Diabetes-Mom-Real%E2%80%91Life/dp/1943070660 (The World’s Worst Diabetes Mom) https://www.amazon.com/Cant-Cook-But-Know-Someone/dp/0981904009 (I Can’t Cook, But I Know Someone Who Can) https://www.instagram.com/staceysimms/ (Stacey’s Instagram) https://twitter.com/DiabetesCxns (Diabetes Connections Twitter) https://www.facebook.com/diabetesconnections/ (Diabetes Connections Facebook) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFdihF6AvoP5w2yY1PiCiJw/feed (Diabetes Connections YouTube Channel) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mark-all-that-apply/id1207410350 (Chris Snider’s Mark All That Apply Podcast) https://www.shepodcasts.com/live/ (She Podcasts Live Website) https://www.dexcom.com/ (Dexcom Website) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

You either have that in you or you do not.” (25:03) “I have fans in South Korea and all over Africa. I have fans from Story Worthy so this is exciting in a way. To take something away from the pandemic is our ability to stay in touch and how small the world really is.” (30:09) “People that have ingenuity are able to rise up.” (32:30) “I would say the most important thing is to focus. You should already be focused when you’re podcasting anyway. And since they see you, clear up your background. Be normal, be professional. Understand that it’s important that they’re giving you their time.” (34:36) “I know I’m onto something good when I truly can’t sleep because I’m so excited.” (51:36)  THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pcjk.es/focusrite (Focusrite  ) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest Expo Virtual Summit) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/story-worthy/id386530277 (Christine’s Podcast) https://www.facebook.com/events/1259273864414386/ (Story Worthy Hour of Power) https://www.storysmashshow.com/ (Link to the Story Smash Show) Christine’s Email https://www.storyworthypodcast.com/ (Christine’s Website) https://www.instagram.com/storyworthy/ (Christine’s Instagram) https://twitter.com/storyworthy (Christine’s Twitter) https://www.facebook.com/christine.blackburn.10/ (Christine’s Facebook) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcJdM9o3QEoK_mKZAF0fD0A (Christine’s YouTube Channel) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1625346/ (Link to the movie Young Adult) https://www.thousandtruefans.com/ (Link to Thousand True Fans) https://www.amazon.com/Ill-Be-Gone-Dark-Obsessive/dp/0062319795/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&hvadid=77790499440394&hvbmt=be&hvdev=c&hvqmt=e&keywords=i%27ll+be+gone+in+the+dark+book&qid=1610998683&sr=8-1&tag=mh0b-20 (Link to I’ll Be Gone In The Dark Book) https://www.stitcher.com/show/screwedup-stories (Link to Screwed-Up Stories Podcast) https://streamyard.com/ (Link to StreamYard) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/island-idylls/id1474895338 (Link to Island Idylls Podcast) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

There’s an energy that comes through, there’s a connection.” (17:24) “I’m ninety-nine percent curiosity and one percent podcaster. I’m curious about my guests which is why they’re there.

But I also like the people who talk about what works online – like the Russell Brunsons of the world.” (11:39) “I think that, if nothing else, entrepreneurship is the best personal development crash course you can possibly take.” (14:55) “My theory in life is that if you can’t look back five years ago and ask, ‘What was I doing’ then you’re not living.” (17:27) “Podcasts have probably taught me more than my education or any mentor. I am obsessed with podcasts.” (25:13) “I think that value is not just in the information or the tactical stuff.

You can build a business on the Internet by using your own skills. And, this pandemic has made a lot of people think that way and start wondering, ‘How can I take advantage of it?’” (08:19) “And that’s fun. It’s fun to be with people who are constantly saying, ‘Well, what if tried this?’ We’ll give anything a shot once and I think that, in this space, it’s a really fun place to be in for sure.” (10:58) “One of the things that we always preach is, ‘You have to maximize your content. You need to be smart about how you use your content because there’s only one of you – there’s only twenty-four hours in the day – so you can’t be constantly creating.” (14:16) “I think if you’re a content creator of any type, if you’re a podcaster, you should always listen to what your audience wants. They are the commodity. They’re the ones who are gonna help you be better.” (22:08) “If you build that community, and you listen to them and you give them content they want, they will follow you through all different iterations of your career.” (24:35) “People are busy. People are trying to cut back on their social media. Everyone’s on a different time schedule. If you’re only sharing something one time – whether it’s your newest podcast episode or a sale that you’re having – you’re really doing yourself a disservice.” (32:30) “My advice to everyone is use ten to twenty minutes to go into social media and actually engage with your audience.” (37:08) “I just think audio as a medium is becoming more mainstream. And when that happens, the more fun things people start doing and experimenting with. And, I’m excited to see how that grows in this industry.” (47:47) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusrite (Focusrite)   https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://meetedgar.com/ (MeetEdgar Website) https://twitter.com/meetedgar (MeetEdgar Twitter) https://www.facebook.com/MeetEdgar/ (MeetEdgar Facebook) https://www.instagram.com/meetedgar (MeetEdgar Instagram) https://www.pinterest.com/meetedgar/_created/ (MeetEdgar Pinterest) https://www.linkedin.com/company/meetedgar (MeetEdgar LinkedIn) https://www.linkedin.com/in/mauraahughes (Maura’s LinkedIn) https://twitter.com/Maura_Hughes_ (Maura’s Twitter) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/social-post/id1473139348 (Social Post Podcast)  https://paperbell.com/ (Link to Paperbell)   🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

I was just interested in it as a story.” (09:12) “Having a dad who’s a reporter can be a little hard sometimes. I feel like, as a kid, he was always finding the storyline, running through things that I thought were large problems that he thought he could really simply. And sometimes you don’t really want your problems to be simplified.” (14:20) “I would call myself a fairly early podcast junkie. I’ve been excited to see how podcasts have expanded because in the early days they related a lot to the same kind of topics that were for that early adopter audience.” (18:49) “At a startup you can dream up ideas, make them come true – engineering willing – and have two people use them. And at Google, you can dream up ideas, make endless decks about what they could be and potentially be able to do them on a much bigger scale.” (28:20) “Local [news] is something that we value very highly and are working to understand how we can help those local outlets, how we can recognize the new and emerging local outlets and how we can just connect our users to them.” (35:58) “That is my pitch is that your podcast doesn’t need to be two hours long, news or not.” (46:55) “Here’s my hill to die on. Everyone is a news reader. Everyone’s interested in the news. I know that the news can be overwhelming and that you want to turn it off sometimes and look inward. But, knowing what’s going on in the world around you is important.” (54:12) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusrite (Focusrite)   https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/lizgannes/ (Liz's LinkedIn) https://twitter.com/lizgannes (Liz's Twitter) https://mollyofdenalipodcast.org/ (Link to Molly of Denali Podcast)  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rabbit-hole/id1507423923 (Link to Rabbit Hole Podcast ) https://www.amazon.com/Season-Witch-Enchantment-Terror-Deliverance/dp/1439108242 (Link to Season of the Witch Book ) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

Ya know what I mean? It can be hard out there, as they say.” (33:49) “There’s also that insecurity of, ‘Will people subscribe to another newsletter or will people be interested in whatever work I produce next?’ I still don’t know the answer to that question, but I’d feel pretty lame if I didn’t at least try.” (43:47) “This is what podcasts do.

This is an incredible time. Lots of it is tumultuous and sorrowful and painful, but it is fascinating and I’m glad to be here.

There’s a ton of religious podcasts out there. And even a couple very Christian-centric gay podcasts out there, actually. But none that were doing it in the way that the web series was doing it, which was taking a more comedic approach to the subject matter.” (16:53) “I do think coming from a theatre and acting background – being able to access emotions like that and really call upon that empathy tool that you so develop working as an actor – has been really helpful.” (20:18) “Everyone is so different when it comes to religion and spirituality, especially with the guests that I’ve had. They completely range all over the map. And so, each episode is so different because each of the people is so different and their backgrounds completely vary from one another. And I think that’s really neat.” (27:24) “A major thing has just been – and I don’t think this is revolutionary – it has meant a lot for people to hear that there is a difference between religion and spirituality.” (32:06) “Since I could really conceive that I thought the church thought it was wrong, which would have been around nine or ten, I started research at that age trying to figure out if homosexuality was a sin or not. And no ten year old should be doing that. That is just so awful to me but that was the environment I was in.” (38:41) “If we are part of the universe and if we are created by something – whatever you believer in – then I think one of the highest forms of worship is to be good to ourselves because we are a part of that. You wouldn’t scoff at a Creator’s creation if you wanted to worship that Creator. And so, treat yourself well because in treating yourself well you’re gonna be treating whatever you believe in well.” (46:06) THANK YOU SPONSORS!Podcast Movement Virtual Oct 19-29 – http://virtual.podcastmovement.com/ (Virtual.PodcastMovement.com).

However, I’m very skeptical of this conversation about this being the ‘future of media drones’ and that this is the trend that everybody is going to be an independent, discreet writer.” (28:25) “The price of independence is that everything hurts all the time and my head is spinning.” (31:35) “The thing about Hot Pod is that I try to really focus it on the story of podcasting specifically, of business specifically. I think over the past five years it’s very clearly been the story about capitalism and there are different political ways that you can approach that.” (35:37) “As a creator, getting to a point where you can make yourself create stuff that you yourself can be happy with as a consumer, that is, I think, an extremely hard thing.” (39:55) “I’ve also just found conversational podcasts to be so much more interesting to me right now as opposed to interview podcasts.” (41:19) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/nwquah/ (Nick’s LinkedIn) https://www.nicholasquah.com/ (Nick’s Website) https://hotpodnews.com/ (Nick’s Podcast – Servant of Pod with Nick Quah) https://hotpodnews.com/ (Hot Pod Newsletter) https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement) https://podnews.net/ (PodNews) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest) PODCASTS MENTIONEDhttps://partiallyexaminedlife.com/ (The Partially Examined Life) BOOKS MENTIONEDhttps://www.amazon.com/Change-Your-Mind-Consciousness-Transcendence/dp/0735224153/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1YBKFWTPS095W&dchild=1&keywords=how+to+change+your+mind+michael+pollan&qid=1597414619&sprefix=how+to+change+your+%2Caps%2C160&sr=8-2 (How To Change Your Mind) https://www.amazon.com/Pew-Novel-Catherine-Lacey/dp/0374230927 (Pew: A Novel) https://www.amazon.com/Finite-Infinite-Games-James-Carse/dp/1476731713 (Finite and Infinite Games) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

She’s not a CEO or a business titan. But she’s an influential person when it comes to forgiveness and compassion and moving forward which is part of the competency of being a leader.” (14:14) “When I get someone in the podcast – Carly Fiorina, Doris Kearns Goodwin, General McChrystal, whoever it is – I make sure that I have researched them, listened to them, followed their career, and tried to bring out their wisdom as much as possible.” (23:38) “Thought Leadership is the new public relations. Period. It is the mouthpiece of the firm.” (27:07) “You just described the essence of great leadership and that is really self-awareness. We all think we are more self-aware than we are.” (35:22) “I think my job is to make them [podcast interviewees] look good because a lot of these people have spent their entire lives either helping other people or building a platform for other people to benefit from. And if I can give something back to them too then I think that is deserved.” (40:47) “Where do you leave and go to after FranklinCovey, the White House?

Once I started going in I was like, ‘Man, this is such a deep and complex market. There’s so much creativity, so much crazy history and the tech that underlies it is weirdly open in a way that’s unusual.’ So, there’s so many things that are fascinating about podcasting.” (15:24) “The compounding effect of building your audience – of adding subscribers – is an amazing thing.” (29:30) “Raising from outside investors is really hard and it puts a ton of pressure on you. And to willingly choose that takes a certain mindset, either ignorance or acceptance of those challenges that you’re placing on yourself.” (34:17) “We’re really trying to do good work here. We’re not trying to do anything weird. We’re not trying to scam people. We’re not trying to collect data that we shouldn’t be or anything like that. We’re trying to help podcasters.” (40:40) “It really does resonate with some part of me. It just feels like something I should be doing and something I enjoy doing. And so it’s fun to be able to mix that creative side with that technical side. As much as I like behind the mic, I’m generally better behind the computer keyboard.” (50:59) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/dzohrob/ (Dave’s LinkedIn) https://www.zohrob.com/ (Dave’s Website) https://chartable.com/ (Chartable Website) https://twitter.com/dzohrob?lang=en (Dave’s Twitter) – @dzohrob https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement) https://podnews.net/ (PodNews) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

Every single person I talk to comes up and kind of behind the back of the hand is like, ‘Oh my God, I am the worst with anything financial.’ And, my response to that is always, ‘Well you can’t be the worst because either all of us are or none of us are.’” (20:46) “I’m not a ‘hard sell’ kinda person. I like to meet people where they are and just be able to offer value.” (27:55) “The podcast interviews have reflected back to me the fact that we all want to talk about this [money], and we want to talk about our anxiety. And we want to, in a safe space, dig in and kind of talk ourselves through what’s been going on, and where we want to go, and how we might like to change. And people are a lot braver about that than I would have thought.” (31:00) “A lot of entrepreneurs I know really want to do big things in the world and they would really like to make change happen. They would like to give back to their communities. And, guess what? Money can go a long way toward making that happen, but we need to plan for it.” (42:10) THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/lizlajoie/ (Liz’s LinkedIn) https://lizlajoie.com/ (Liz’s Website) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrx1RY45BMMAzexY51tBZeA (Liz’s YouTube Channel) https://www.instagram.com/zenmoneycfo/ (Liz’s Instagram) – @zenmoneycfo https://twitter.com/zenmoneycfo (Liz’s Twitter) – @zenmoneycfo https://www.facebook.com/zenmoneycfo (Liz’s Facebook) https://podcasts.apple.com/ph/podcast/zen-money-monday/id1460416452 (Liz’s Podcast) Liz’s Books –From Zero to Zen & Zen Money Map https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement) https://podnews.net/ (PodNews) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

It’s the number one thing I get with people reaching out to me is that it just has to do with my interview skills. And I still miss every now and then and it takes two to tango; it really does.” “Something that I need to focus more on is becoming friends with them [podcast guests] and building the relationship, because I’m just so focused on the listener and how to make it interesting for them.” “And those are the best podcasts – when your agenda goes out the window.” “It’s about knowing what you want but also knowing why you want it. Because the quest for an ‘A’ is meaningless without a purpose beyond just getting that ‘A.’” “I just don’t go with the flow. I just don’t do that.” “I think the fact that I have fun is what is going to keep me here and stay the course.” THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordantparis/ (Jordan’s LinkedIn) https://jordanparis.com/ (Jordan’s Website) https://www.youtube.com/c/JordanParis?sub_confirmation=1 (Jordan’s YouTube Channel) https://www.instagram.com/i.am.jordan.paris/ (Jordan’s Instagram) –@i.am.jordan.paris https://twitter.com/JordanTParis (Jordan’s Twitter) –@JordanTParis https://www.facebook.com/JordanTParis (Jordan’s Facebook) https://www.instagram.com/gmu.show/ (Growth Mindset University Instagram) –@gmu.show https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/growth-mindset-university/id1372479190 (Jordan’s Podcast) https://www.amazon.com/Growth-Mindset-University (Jordan’s Book – Growth Mindset University) https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement) https://podnews.net/ (PodNews) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest) BOOKS MENTIONEDhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B088ZV6F65/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 (Awaken the Giant Within) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NX13KXQ/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 (The Entrepreneurial Personality Type) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

In many ways it shouldn’t come back. There were things about that world that were very wrong. And so the fact that we’re applying our imagination to create a new world post-Covid gives me a lot of hope.” “If you’re making content for everybody, you’re making content for nobody these days.” “I always tell people radio is a visual medium. It’s just that the screen is in your own head. They call it theater of the mind.” “Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it useful. And that is why Google cares so much about the open web and the RSS ecosystem in podcasting.” “The first couple minutes of a podcast are incredibly important. If you manage to get people past the first couple of minutes of your podcast, they’ll basically stick with you the whole way through. So, when you’re scripting a podcast, I think having really clear introductions is important. I personally don’t think every podcast can get away with doing a pre-roll.” THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website ) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/brenda-salinas-baker-08984334/ (Brenada’s LinkedIn) https://brendapsalinas.com/ (Brenda’s Website) https://www.instagram.com/brendasalinasbaker/?hl=en (Brenda’s Instagram) – @brendasalinasbaker https://twitter.com/brendapsalinas?lang=en (Brenda’s Twitter) – @brendapsalinas https://www.facebook.com/brenda.p.salinas (Brenda’s Facebook) https://googlecp.prx.org/ (Google Podcasts Creator Program) https://newsinitiative.withgoogle.com/ (Google News Initiative) https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement) https://podnews.net/ (PodNews) https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/podfest-global-summit-august-2020/x/23985477#/ (Podfest Global Summit Aug 10-17) 🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by https://fullcast.co (FullCast)

So, you can have different sponsors doing different segments.’” “When life decides to hand you lemons, you can decide to make lemonade, or you can complain that it’s sour and you complain, and you just don’t do anything about it. So, my circumstance I’ve found is a platform that has just given me such a drive so I’m never comfortable.” “Entrepreneurship in Jamaica is huge. I think we’re setting the standard for all other Caribbean nations.” “Doing the podcast and doing it on my own – doing everything – I was taken out of my comfort zone.”  “I’m really pleased with the outcome and the product [Podcast Power].

All we have is the now. The history is gone and tomorrow will never come, so all we have is the present.” “When you have clarity on why you’re doing something, you can withstand storms.” “The thing for me – the podcast, the documentary, the whole thing – is I want to have cool conversations with cool people. That’s it. I think that’s the coolest thing ever. That’s what lights me up. And, if I can do that for the rest of my life, I’ve won.” “The limiting beliefs we can have are so terrible. And that’s when you need to be really honest and upfront. And it’s painful and it doesn’t feel good when you do it.

And so, I don’t really feel it until I sit down and go, ‘Ok, now that I’ve looked after everybody else, what do I need?’” “Mindset is way more important right now than tactics or strategy.” “You mentioned empathic and that’s just how I came out. And, I’m also just a problem-solver; I see gaps. I’m a strategist by nature.” “I learned [as a correction’s officer] to be able to just really be there in space – hold space with people. I learned how to not exacerbate situations but to deescalate situations naturally.” “Podcasting, and podcast guesting, is what I do, but they’re just vehicles. So, whether it’s podcasting, whether it’s podcast guesting, whether it’s social media, whether it’s blogging, whether it’s YouTube, whatever. These are just vehicles to achieve a goal.” THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusritepromo (Register to Win Focusrite’s Podcast Studio Makeover) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website) https://focusrite.com/usb-audio-interface/scarlett/scarlett-2i2 (Focusrite Website) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest) https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicoleholland/ (Nicole’s LinkedIn) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCq_3UKxp6D1vHufdZhkDMlw (Nicole’s YouTube Channel) https://www.instagram.com/thenicoleholland/ (Nicole’s Instagram) – @thenicoleholland https://twitter.com/niczthename (Nicole’s Twitter) – @niczthename https://www.facebook.com/TheNicoleHolland/ (Nicole’s Facebook) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fascinating-founders/id1480180144 (Nicole’s Podcast) https://interviewsthatconvert.com/ (Nicole’s Website)

I don’t ever put it into the episode. It’s really just a way for us to warm up with each other, and talk about life, and get acquainted, and sort of connect a little bit before we start talking about the product.” “I’d say, stereotypically in the tech world, we’re not known for being the best communicators. And I’d say that’s true for me. And so, the idea of talking confidently in a microphone and communicating and elaborating in a clear way was difficult for me.” “I think it’s interesting, people that I have experienced that have done tech for a long time really get tech because they’re really smart people. But they do have a hard time explaining it. They do have a hard time relating to the masses of how most people see tech.” “I wish that we [Veryable] had a bigger footprint right now; we don’t. We’re just young and our footprint, we’re happy with it, but we wish we had a bigger footprint so we could help out further.” THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusrite (Focusrite) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website) https://focusrite.com/usb-audio-interface/scarlett/scarlett-2i2 (Focusrite Website) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement) https://www.linkedin.com/in/noahlabhart/ (Noah’s LinkedIn) https://noahlabhart.com/ (Noah’s Website) https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/code-story/id1466861744 Podfest (Noah’s Podcast)

So, failure and boredom are not the same thing.” “I always think that I can improve. I’m probably quite hard on myself.” “I’m always changing lifestyle because of something that I heard on a podcast.”   THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusritepromo (Register to Win Focusrite’s Podcast Studio Makeover) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website) https://focusrite.com/usb-audio-interface/scarlett/scarlett-2i2 (Focusrite Website) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/amywoods2/?originalSubdomain=uk (Amy’s LinkedIn) https://www.content10x.com/podcast/ (Amy’s Podcast Website) https://twitter.com/content10x?lang=en (Amy’s Twitter) – @content10x https://www.instagram.com/content10x/?hl=en (Amy’s Instagram) – @content10x https://www.facebook.com/content10x/ (Amy’s Facebook) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest) https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement)

So, for me, I’m trying to build a full story arc. And when I’m sitting down and interviewing a guest I’m trying to get into ‘What is the core message? What is the core takeaway?’” “That [passion] was the only thing that was driving me. I didn’t know if I was gonna be successful at it. I still don’t know even know. I’m just always improving, always trying to raise the level each time.” “It’s kinda cliché. For 2020, I said that motivation is dead for 2020. I don’t wanna hear any more motivation quotes. I’m motivation quote’d out. That’s all y’all got is words.” “Until we get to that point…I’m gonna do everything I can do to break in here in this facet. So, immigration, what voice would not be better for this? Young, youthful, forward-thinking, inquisitive, really want to get to the facts, really want to understand what’s going on in this world and how, as a globe, that we can better understand each other.” THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusritepromo (Register to Win Focusrite’s Podcast Studio Makeover) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://thisten.co/ktbz3 (Episode transcription on Thisten) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website) http://pjnk.es/focusritepromo (Focusrite $2300 Podcast Studio Makeover) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/iangaines/ (Ian’s LinkedIn) https://twitter.com/ImmNerds (Immigration Nerds Twitter) – @immnerds https://eiglaw.com/ (Erickson Immigration Group Website) https://podcasts.apple.com/pl/podcast/immigration-nerds/id1400312981 (Ian’s Podcast Website) https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement) https://eiglaw.com/global/immigration-nerds-talks-about-liberias-direct-pathway-to-citizenship/ (Link to Immigration Nerds Podcast Episode featuring Jowanda Jones) https://www.amazon.com/Make-Noise-Creators-Podcasting-Storytelling/dp/1523504552 (Make Noise: A Creator’s Guide to Podcasting and Great Audio Storytelling)

And it really took the community that really pushed me into this [starting a podcast].” “My travel style is very random. I really follow the flight deal. And that has led me to some really incredible places. I’ve been to Iceland three times. It’s top three by far and it’s because I found cheap flights there. So, I think if you’re open to seeing what comes up you’ll be really surprised at the places that you’ll really fall in love with.” “I think since my podcast has launched a lot of people in my circle have been inspired to start their own podcasts.” “Financial independence is definitely the biggest thing that I am working on and it also drives me to be more creative.” THANK YOU SPONSORS!http://pjnk.es/focusritepromo (Register to Win Focusrite’s Podcast Studio Makeover) LINKS MENTIONEDhttps://thisten.co/ktbz3 (Episode transcription on Thisten) https://fullcast.co/ (FullCast Website) https://focusrite.com/usb-audio-interface/scarlett/scarlett-2i2 (Focusrite Website) https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/ (Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook Group) https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielledesir/ (Danielle’s LinkedIn) https://podcast.thoughtcard.com/ (Danielle’s Podcast Website) https://wocpodcasters.co/ (Danielle’s WOC Podcasters Website) https://twitter.com/thethoughtcard (Danielle’s Twitter) – @thethoughtcard https://www.instagram.com/thethoughtcard/ (Danielle’s Instagram) – @thethoughtcard https://www.facebook.com/thethoughtcard/ (Danielle’s Facebook) https://podfestexpo.com/ (Podfest) https://www.headliner.app/blog/2020/04/03/what-is-the-one-thing-you-wish-you-had-known-before-you-started-your-podcast/ (What is the One Thing You Wish You Had Known Before You Started Your Podcast?)

You need to tie it to what’s happening in pop news. You need to tie it to narratives.

So, you have to produce the wrong answer.’ And this was our professor telling us this. And, I remember being locked. I was just thinking, ‘I can’t do this. I can’t do this anymore.’ So, I just felt so betrayed by the system that I really started to feel so confined and wanted to get out.” (35:58) “I’m pretty indiscriminate. I’ll read anything.

And I think that actually translates a lot to the work that I do because when you move from one place to another, it questions a lot of assumptions that you have.” (15:31) “People miss that the creators that you are passionate about, they actually like hearing stories of people using their stuff.” (25:10) “What I realized is that people who are the top or the best, they know what they’re good at and for everything else they find people who are good at what they do, and then they give them the room to do it.” (29:03) “I think it’s the idea of being prepared. To me, when I see people who aren’t prepared I’m like, ‘That’s one thing that’s under your control.’” (43:59) “It’s (podcasting) just so early where I think people think that everyone has the answers. They don’t.

I did not want to go into work. I did not want to hold a job. I wanted to be independent and have freedom.” (06:20) “I was the one who was at the golf course early. My parents would drop me off and they’d have to pick me up after dark cause I didn’t want to leave. And, I’d be at home daydreaming of, ya know, hitting the final putt at The Masters to beat Tiger Woods. It was everything I’d ever wanted.” (11:30) “Habits are so, so important.

And I think that’s reflected, ya know, in the people that are in the podcast too.” (26:51) “I would say that the guys who actually excel as athletes are guys who are about the process of learning and less about the reward. They’re not about the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow; they’re about the rainbow.” (27:50) “A print interview in a magazine is essentially a transcription of a twenty-minute conversation. And so, what I realized is even an hour interview that’s three times as long as a major interview in a magazine. So, it’s [podcasting] a different kind of format.” (39:11) “Right now, I feel like we’re at a point, at least with podcasting, where you can literally just go in all different directions and see what works.

I think so much of the world is about being able to tell a story and take someone else’s experiences and communicate them in a way that is easy for other people to internalize.” (13:07) “What we [the Muslim community] should have been doing, I think proactively, is going out and telling our story and talking about the values that we preach that I think are very American values and finding ways to engage with the community more and more.” (20:08) “What I realized is, one of the things I really excel at is going out to find scrappy ways to get it done, seeing a problem, coming up with different solutions, experimenting.” (28:33) “For the podcasters out there, or for anyone, Glow is designed to be the best way for podcasters to be able to let listeners pay them directly. And, it can either be for listener support or to actually charge for content.” (34:36) “I’m just really excited to help give podcasters a new way to make money.

I feel bad saying that, but it was really cool to be thrown in the middle of something like that.” (17:52) “I don’t think I ever really felt in danger. As you mentioned, it was just bad timing in the summer of 2016. We ended up at the border to enter to Turkey six days after the attempted coup.” (36:13) “I try to be as visual as possible. They talk about radio or podcasting being a visual medium, which sounds weird, but in some ways it really is. It’s way more intimate than television or video.” (44:08) “People who’ve told me just like over the course of a weekend or whatever I listened to all twelve hours of your first season, it just warms my heart. I love hearing that kinda thing cause that’s why I made it.” (49:52) “I think audio’s important. You can have the most interesting content in the world, but if it’s recorded poorly I just can’t listen.” (54:46) “So, I’m just trying to let people know, I think, through all of my stories that yes the world isn’t a big bad scary place, and that wherever I go people are people and people are generally good.” (1:01:33) THANK YOU SPONSORS!Focusrite - Makers of my go-to sound card, the http://fullcast.co/2i2 (Scarlett 2i2) Aweber - Hosts of the Beyond the Podcast Summit LINKS MENTIONEDhttp://scottgurian.com/ (Scott’s Website) https://www.instagram.com/farfromhomepodcast/ (Scott’s Instagram) – @farfromhomepodcast  https://www.facebook.com/farfromhomepodcast (Scott’s Facebook) https://vimeo.com/scottgurian/collections (Scott’s Vimeo) https://twitter.com/scottgurian (Scott’s Twitter) – @scottgurian https://farfromhomepodcast.org/ (Scott’s Far From Home Podcast) https://podcastmovement.com/ (Podcast Movement Website)

I’m trying to find a way to get to the guest. And by that I mean not to irritate them necessarily, but if I can get them to either laugh, startle them, confuse them, or do something I will have engagement.” (31:45) “While I want to ask a probing question or a difficult question, it is always in the service of the overall interview.” (44:09) “I would like this [podcasting] to become my actual gig.

TWEETABLE QUOTES “There’s something that we’ve learned which is when you build a tool that has elements of magic, people start expecting the entire thing to be magic.” (09:36) “‘Deep Fake’ is the broader term that people use to talk about A.I.-generated media that’s simulating a person somehow.” (13:09) “My job as a CEO is not to have ideas. I feel like I’m doing my job well when I don’t have any good ideas and they’ve all been covered by the team.” (20:21) “That’s the most fun part of the company is trying to figure out, ‘How can we make the workflow of our customers even more efficient and faster? How can we make this tool even more expressive?’” (24:59) “Let’s just say there’s a checkered history of pre-launch companies raising thirty, forty, fifty, a hundred million dollars. That would terrify me. I like the idea of doing something that’s kinda small and getting out there to get market validation before you are responsible for that much of someone’s money.” (29:57) “I’m a believer in not polluting the world with more random opinions from people who don’t matter.” (32:28) “Audio is the easiest form of content to create; you just open your mouth.

Craig Price was already a veteran of the podcast industry with his 7-year long Reality Check Podcast when he set out with his co-host Alan Cerny to create Matinee Heroes.

We do not often have the opportunity to form friendships with those who have had a life as challenging and rewarding as Aviv Shahar. At a young age, a doctor diagnosed Aviv with a heart disease and told him to avoid strenuous activity. He responded to this diagnosis by winning Israel’s long-distance running championship at the age of 13. Later in his life, he became an air force pilot, and then started a very successful consulting business. In this episode, I speak with Aviv about his youth, and how winning that race changed him. We then talk about how we are currently experiencing a “Third Big Bang,” according to Aviv.

He’s the founder and former CEO and he has an appetite for creating cool and useful products like Groupon.

With the ability to transcribe hours of audio in under five minutes, Descript is a tool that podcasters might want to take note of.

That couldn’t be farther from the truth. He’s a lot of fun, has really, really quick sense of humor and we laughed a lot on the show. Rob shares valuable podcast insight, statistics, and why your audience isn’t falling for traditional marketing tactics. Hope you enjoy this fantastic episode.

This interview, I spoke with the charming Vanessa Lowe. Vanessa is the host of Nocturne, which could be classified as ambient storytelling.

I’m really happy to be a podcaster today because today’s interviewee is Brendan McDonald, the producer of the WTF with Marc Maron podcast. Brendan was a really great guest. There were many times he could have just easily given me a yes or no response, but I could tell he went out of his way to give me an elaborate answer at times when it felt like maybe I didn’t ask the right question. We talk about Marc Maron and the famous Obama interview in his garage, Brendan’s background, and so much more on today’s podcast episode.

41:35 – Brendan touches on the Obama interview and what it was like.

Guy & Ilan Ferdman run Satori Prime. Their company has a bold mission of influencing 100 million people by 2020. Not too shabby, eh? Talk about passion, these 2 have it by the bucket-loads. In this Ilan and Guy Ferdman interview, we cover the importance of personal connections, how the podcast has been an important vehicle for their business, and why the universe has a funny way of showing you what you need to do.
