Okay, boy, 176 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: So what do y'all think is the biggest misconception about 177 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 2: podcasting because I feel like when people get into podcasting, 178 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 2: especially when I got into it, I thought it was 179 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 2: so fucking easy. 180 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's the biggest thing. I think people 181 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 5: think it's you know, a blog is so much easier 182 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 5: than podcasting. I tried, and I think that's what delayed 183 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 5: my podcast is because I just started blogging. 184 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 6: I'm not the strongest writer. 185 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 5: Like I can my voice, I can make something sound great, 186 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 5: I can tell a story. I can, but I'm not. 187 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 5: I cannot write. It's never been my strong suit and 188 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 5: so I think. But still, I think there is structure 189 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 5: and planning and editing and. 190 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 4: Sourcing talent and marketing. 191 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 5: It's so much to podcasting and being an indie podcaster, 192 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 5: Like it's even harder. 193 00:08:59,160 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 6: I think. 194 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 4: Everybody got a podcast, every celebrity. 195 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 5: Has a podcast, every brand has a podcast, So why 196 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 5: should anyone listen to me? And I think that is 197 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 5: the hard part that people don't get while they give 198 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 5: up so quick, because it is hard when you feel 199 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 5: like that episode bomb as fuck and yo, that's all. 200 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 4: The listeners I got. 201 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 2: Yo, I ain't gonna lie. It was one episode I 202 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 2: did and I did good, but I just thought it 203 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 2: was gonna go viral. Like I'm like, yo, this episode 204 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 2: was so good, and like it did not do as 205 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 2: well as I thought it did. I was like, damn, 206 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 2: but yeah, niggas be hating any But that's another story. 207 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 2: I think. I think the thing that gets under my 208 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: skin is that people think you could just turn a 209 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,839 Speaker 2: mic on and say whatever you want, which you can do, right. 210 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 2: You can get on the mic, you can say whatever 211 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 2: you want. But I think if you want quality and 212 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 2: you want people to take you seriously, there's some thought 213 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: and there's some life you us have lived in order 214 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 2: to get on the mic and start saying things. I 215 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,959 Speaker 2: think people look at podcasts as like prescriptive, like oh, 216 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 2: I'm going to get in here and tell people how 217 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 2: to live their life and that's going to make people 218 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 2: want to like listen to me more. And I think 219 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 2: when it first started out, people were into that. I 220 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: think nowadays like people are looking for people who are 221 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 2: actual experts or people who are actually wise to listen to. 222 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: They're not just listening to anybody. But yeah, that whole 223 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 2: just turn on a mic and talking thing. It works 224 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: for some people, but for everybody, not for the majority 225 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 2: of people, right because I think I think a lot 226 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 2: of people are not as smart as they think they are. 227 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: Mm hm wow. Actually, anybody want a name? I I 228 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 2: section four it. 229 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 4: What you think? 230 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 3: I think the marketing part is so hard because even 231 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 3: if you do have something good to say, and even 232 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 3: if you are an expert and have lived some life. Okay, 233 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 3: so now you put this thing out there now because 234 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 3: there's so much competition, especially when there's like celebrities involved 235 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 3: in and brands to your point, Bonnie, like, so how 236 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 3: can you well hear you? So there's so much work 237 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: and studying that goes into Okay, so I put this 238 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 3: thing out that I'm proud of I think can be 239 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 3: helpful to somebody, But now how do I get the 240 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 3: somebody to hear it? 241 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 6: So? 242 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 3: There's a lot of work that goes into that outside 243 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 3: of the planning of what you're going to create, you 244 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 3: know what I mean.

I think another misconception that I have that I 281 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 2: have for myself is I thought that when I got 282 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 2: with a network, I was gonna be like Oprah on 283 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 2: this bitch, Like I thought I was gonna take off. 284 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 2: And I granted, don't get me wrong, like there has 285 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 2: been a tremendous amount of growth with my business and 286 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: my podcast, but I feel like I'm working even harder 287 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 2: since I've been with the network comparedson when I wasn't 288 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 2: with the network, Like it's a lot of working, and 289 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 2: especially when you are on a network where like so 290 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 2: many people who have like names and you know, you've 291 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 2: seen when they was they started when we first started 292 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 2: to work there now, so I just was like, damn, 293 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 2: like I'm gonna be working like a two dollars Hold 294 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 2: for a minute, Actually what you want to say? I 295 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 2: actually want to say something. No, I mean, I think 296 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 2: I think that podcasting has changed so much from when 297 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 2: I first started producing till now. Facts that there was 298 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 2: a time where I could sort of advise people if 299 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 2: they asked me, like, so what should I be doing? 300 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 2: Bbaut ba bap, and it would work because there was 301 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 2: a formula for that time. I don't have like cutting 302 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: dry advice anymore because the algorithm keeps change, people's appetites 303 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:07,079 Speaker 2: keep changing, and the like what goes viral is becoming 304 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 2: more and more and more debased. So it's like, you 305 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, like and only a few It 306 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 2: really does feel like only a few people can cut 307 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 2: through the noise. So I'm just like, I think I've 308 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 2: gotten to a place where I'm tired of trying to 309 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: figure it out. Now. I'm just like I'm going back 310 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 2: to what I originally said when I first started doing this, 311 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 2: which was I just want to make dope shit with 312 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 2: good people. Like that's literally it. Whatever happens happens, whatever 313 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 2: doesn't happen happens. But I just want to make dope 314 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 2: shit with good people. 315 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's true. And you know what I think too, 316 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 3: is yes, a thousand percent to what you said, Ashley, 317 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 3: I think now the formula is money. If you have 318 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 3: big advertising marketing bucks, you're going to be alright, who 319 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 3: has that money? The celebrities and the brands, you know 320 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 3: what I mean? So, and to your point, because you 321 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: already know how I feel like in I had I 322 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 3: was like, no, I'm about to question how. But what 323 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 3: I realized is, you know what, I want to make 324 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 3: Things that I'm proud of, Things that my answers will 325 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 3: be proud of, things that my kids would be proud of. 326 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 3: And that's what keeps me going at this point, because yeah, 327 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 3: like you think you're doing amazing work and that people 328 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: are gonna get it. 329 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 2: And but you've been killing it though I've been trying. 330 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 3: I've been trying to killing it.

So I always tell people too, 364 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,239 Speaker 5: if you're a small podcast, you can do anything as 365 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 5: long as you get the scope and scale to where 366 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 5: your audience is. So I can do a show in 367 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 5: New Orleans because I have a venue that can hold, 368 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 5: Like I'm not doing it at the House of Blues, right, 369 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 5: but I got a venue that can fit my audience 370 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 5: that will come there, right. And So I think for me, 371 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 5: it's just been about scale, right, Like, once I got 372 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 5: that part and adjusted to where I was, that helped 373 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 5: me kind of Chad, like, calm down the noise or 374 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 5: the chatter that's like, you're not doing enough, you're not 375 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 5: making right, so the ways that you thought, But I'm like, damn, 376 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 5: people are buying plane tickets to come see me in 377 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 5: New Orleans. 378 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 4: And it's I'm like, it's just me. 379 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 2: And what's the day. 380 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 4: It's a big deal. 381 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 2: What's the day for the show? 382 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 4: December six? December six? 383 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 2: What's up, y'all? It's your eb and A here, and 384 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 2: be sure to follow me on Instagram and TikTok at 385 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: pretty private podcasts, and don't forget to subscribe to my 386 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 2: YouTube channel at the Professional Homegirl. Now let's get back 387 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 2: to the show. And you know what's so crazy, There 388 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 2: were a lot of people who have like bigger name 389 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 2: than us and they can't even feelish a room, like 390 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 2: they was canceling their tours and everything. So I think 391 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 2: sometimes we just get in our own head. But I 392 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 2: also think, to your point, like it's about being creative, 393 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 2: because like I was like, okay, I want to sell 394 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 2: merchant stuff, but what can I do to really like 395 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 2: hit a different target audience but can bring it right 396 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 2: back for a circle to the podcast. And that's when 397 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 2: I came up with the coloring books, and that has 398 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 2: been like my biggest push. Like everybody, I didn't know 399 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,199 Speaker 2: so many girls like the color Like I would have 400 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 2: been there this shit a long time ago. So I 401 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 2: just think that when you're a smaller indie brand, Like 402 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 2: it's just about just being creative and not getting not 403 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 2: letting these people stress you out. 404 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 4: Y'all that part. 405 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 2: So, what has been you'll hardest moment as a podcaster 406 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 2: and how did y'all get through it? Or a producer? Ashley? 407 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 2: I would say for me, it was definitely when I 408 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 2: had the rebrand. Oh my god, I actually crying. 409 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 4: I think I called you. 410 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: Crying too after Like that was the hardest thing ever. 411 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 2: Like I don't know why it was so hard for 412 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 2: me to let the name go. And I feel like 413 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 2: I had like put so much like blood, sweat and 414 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 2: tears in it, Like people recognize me as a professional 415 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 2: homegirl and I'm like, damn, like did the professional homegirl 416 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 2: and not win? Like did she not like do what 417 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 2: she supposed to do? Like and I'm not gonna lie. 418 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 2: The rebrand has definitely helped out a lot because I 419 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 2: think that it's you can get the message better and 420 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 2: correlate some boswell with the episodes and stuff. But oh 421 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 2: my god, I was really ready to like give up 422 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 2: and call it quits. And I was like, gosh, I'm 423 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 2: in contract, Like how I'm about to do this? What 424 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 2: about y'all that you remember that I was calling you. 425 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 2: I was like, girl, and I correlate. 426 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 3: I feel like when I had my rebrand too, I 427 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,199 Speaker 3: was just like no, I felt so tied into like 428 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,719 Speaker 3: the original pod art and the colors in the field. 429 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 3: But it was time to change, and having to knowing 430 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 3: how to communicate that to my audience was tough because 431 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 3: I was not accepting of it myself at the time. Yeah, 432 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 3: so it's tough. I don't see. This past year has 433 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 3: just been a little little rocky, a little shaky, yeah, 434 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 3: in general, and just just remind myself that the something 435 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 3: that I'm doing is helping somebody else, you know. For me, 436 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 3: I know every time I see tool when my guests 437 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 3: that I personally am blessed, and I'm just hoping that 438 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 3: somebody else outside of us in the conversation. Yeah, just 439 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:37,400 Speaker 3: to keep going, because yeah, it gets rocky, especially when 440 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 3: life is happening outside of the podcast, it becomes a 441 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 3: little bit even more challenging. 442 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 4: Facts. 443 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think for me too. 444 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 5: I was gonna say the consistency when I don't meet 445 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 5: my schedule to your point, cause Sondra, like, life is 446 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 5: life for me, and it's not bad. It's just busy. 447 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 5: And so I haven't been there. I try to do 448 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 5: week when I'm in season weekly episodes, but the last 449 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 5: two weeks it ain't happen, and it's like, I'm gonna 450 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 5: pick it up next week. But for me, that's the 451 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,919 Speaker 5: hard part, is like sticking to my schedule when you 452 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 5: wear so many different hats, and it's like, okay, I 453 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 5: haven't they're recorded, but I haven't had the time to 454 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 5: sit down and edit them and then post them and make. 455 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 6: The reels and do all that. 456 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 5: So instead of doing it half assed, it's just no 457 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 5: new episodes, and so I beat myself up about that. 458 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 6: But you know what, you're gonna do. What you're gonna do. 459 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 2: It is hard. I mean I can count all, maybe 460 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 2: one and a half hands of how many times I 461 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: missed a week since I've been doing this almost seven years.

Leave it to us. 464 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 2: We already got the skin in the game. 465 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 4: What about you? 466 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: Actually, you said, what's the hardest thing, right, mm hm, 467 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 2: especially what you being behind the scenes and stuff. Yeah, Well, 468 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 2: if I'm being completely honest, the hardest thing is when 469 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 2: I get into working on something and I just don't 470 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 2: love it anymore, but I kta do it because this 471 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 2: is what's feeding me right now. Yeah, I will say 472 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 2: there was one time I got into something and after 473 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 2: two episodes, I was like, oh, I know what that is, 474 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 2: and I said, you could take my name off of 475 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 2: this show. I will not be producing anymore past these 476 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 2: two episodes. I didn't know what was gonna come after that, 477 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 2: but I knew I couldn't keep working on that show. 478 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: So I think, like, yeah, when you get into it 479 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 2: and it's just like this is a tap, like it's 480 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 2: a chore. There's nothing I love about this. Yeah, that's 481 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 2: really difficult for me as a producer because it's not 482 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 2: like it's mine, right, it's somebody else's and I have 483 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 2: to show up and make it the best for them. 484 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 2: But sometimes it could be it could be rough. Yeah, 485 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 2: that's might was gonna say something. Okay, so y'all say 486 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 2: it's overrated and podcasting right now. 487 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 5: So I'm gonna get meat up for this because I 488 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 5: I lean into it in some episodes, but I'm over 489 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 5: like the clickbait viral reels, like I'm tired, and it's 490 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 5: one parison in particular, and I don't want to name 491 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 5: the names. 492 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 4: But it's like if I see. 493 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 5: This man's patchy beard on my Instagram screen one more 494 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 5: time saying something, Oh that relacious.

I think celebrity 967 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 5: podcasts are very easy to put in one of those 968 00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:24,400 Speaker 5: two buckets. 969 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 970 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 5: I have only listened to Michelle Obama's podcast, the ones 971 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:30,879 Speaker 5: you did with Tracy Ellis Ross, The Say I love 972 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 5: Tracy Ellis Ross. It was good, But I feel like 973 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:38,320 Speaker 5: it's the most celebrity podcasts to Cassandra point, I probably 974 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,080 Speaker 5: only listen to them if they have a guest that 975 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 5: I'm interested in. Yeah, but I typically just don't subscribe 976 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:44,240 Speaker 5: and listen. 977 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, I think the only person I listened to 978 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,920 Speaker 2: besides Angie Martinez is Oprah. I don't really listen to 979 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 2: a lot of celebrit podcasts, and I also feel like 980 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 2: they mess it up for a lot of smaller podcasts. 981 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 2: So I'm a little like, uh no, I'm gonna support 982 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 2: my people because y'all the reason why it's so hard 983 00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,840 Speaker 2: for us to get money. Ye, there's there's a handful 984 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:07,759 Speaker 2: of celebrity podcasts that I will listen to full episodes sometimes, 985 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 2: but I'm a fan of them because of the clips 986 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 2: that they post, like Amy Polar's. Amy Polar's podcast is 987 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 2: so cute. I just like to see it because she's 988 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 2: a comedian and when she has people on, like the 989 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:22,239 Speaker 2: funniest things happen, and it could just be small a thing, 990 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:27,360 Speaker 2: but it's just super cute. It's very like like nerve calming, 991 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:28,839 Speaker 2: like you know what I'm saying, Like, you know, it's 992 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,720 Speaker 2: just a good easy listen while you're cooking or something 993 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 2: like that. And there's a few others like that. But I, 994 00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 2: if I'm honest with y'all, I don't really listen to 995 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 2: podcasts like that anymore. When you are constantly listening and listening, 996 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:47,479 Speaker 2: unless you keep it warranting. It's like, nope, I'm gonna 997 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 2: watch TV or or color, you know what I mean. Like, yeah, 998 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:57,479 Speaker 2: and she got my color and book. She loves it. Okay, 999 00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 2: who would y'all say, have the best branded podcast has? 1000 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 2: Like if you see they brand, you know exactly what 1001 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 2: it is. 1002 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 4: I think they just had to do a rebrand to 1003 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 4: Decisions Decisions. 1004 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 2: I was gonna say them too. 1005 00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:13,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think they had a really good brand with 1006 00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,319 Speaker 5: horrible decisions and so. 1007 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:19,240 Speaker 4: You know, I know, and they did a whole. 1008 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 6: Little roll out like you. 1009 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:22,600 Speaker 5: Know, we're ending the part like it was very cute 1010 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 5: how they did it. Yeah, So I think they have 1011 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 5: a really good brand. 1012 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 3: Anybody else because I can't think of anybody else. Yeah, 1013 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 3: Decisions Decisions. 1014 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:39,440 Speaker 4: I don't really know. 1015 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,720 Speaker 2: I don't really know how I would classify that because 1016 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 2: the only the only two podcasts that came to I 1017 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 2: was Joe Budden's and The Cam and Mace's. But I'm like, 1018 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 2: I don't know if that they have great branding. 1019 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:57,439 Speaker 5: But I think Joe does too, right, Like I could 1020 00:49:57,520 --> 00:49:59,200 Speaker 5: give Joe sure. 1021 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:01,839 Speaker 2: Yeah maybe not. Maybe I'm just thinking like in terms 1022 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 2: of like the way that their video clips look or 1023 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 2: something I don't know, Yeah, but Joe for sure because 1024 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,759 Speaker 2: they definitely take that picture overlooking the skyline like all 1025 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:15,440 Speaker 2: of them. Yeah, so by episode and yeah, very consistent. 1026 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:21,360 Speaker 2: Most overlooked podcasts that deserves more love. I was saying, 1027 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 2: I was down this hill Ebanie K Williams. I used 1028 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,399 Speaker 2: to listen to her show every week, sometimes twice a week, 1029 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:28,719 Speaker 2: and I was like, damn, like. 1030 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 4: Why niggas, I ain't really fuck with this show, like 1031 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 4: the show is fire. 1032 00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:37,319 Speaker 2: I honestly I would agree with you because I'm just 1033 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:43,320 Speaker 2: like I and I searched there are no black people 1034 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:47,400 Speaker 2: discussing anything political, anything like law. Based the way that 1035 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 2: she's doing it. She breaks dam out of the ones, 1036 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 2: but they were not good. They just weren't. And her 1037 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 2: and Dustin as a pair fact, just. 1038 00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 5: Whoever decided that? Yeah, I'm like, whoever decided that? I 1039 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 5: think that what worked? I like, I wasn't really familiar 1040 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 5: with Ebony, but I knew, you know, Dustin. 1041 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,760 Speaker 4: I was like, oh, he's doing a podcast.

I don't listen 1045 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 5: to every episode. Again, I'm in the same bucket. It 1046 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 5: has to be a topic or something that will pull 1047 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 5: me in because I don't listen as much, but. 1048 00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 6: I do like the two of them together. 1049 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:27,320 Speaker 2: That was That was Ebony's hold.

We were standing 1089 00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:36,239 Speaker 2: up railing at each other and at the TV. While 1090 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:41,120 Speaker 2: I'm rewarded like that you have me just said. But 1091 00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 2: I know I really love that Mark and Mona are 1092 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,040 Speaker 2: on the show because they're the reasons why I even 1093 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 2: watch any of the clips. I never engaged. Yeah, my 1094 00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 2: brother used to play it while I was in the 1095 00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 2: car with him and I was like, yo, turn this 1096 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:55,680 Speaker 2: ship off, like I do not want to hear this. 1097 00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 2: But with them on the show now, I'm like, it's funny, 1098 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:05,800 Speaker 2: it's engaging, and I can relate to some of it now, 1099 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 2: because you know, I couldn't. Honestly, I couldn't relate to 1100 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,000 Speaker 2: Joe Budden than the rest of the guys before. I 1101 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 2: couldn't relate to Melissa if I'm honest, you know, so 1102 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 2: it's it's a better mix up now, yeah, right, And 1103 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:24,560 Speaker 2: I think people like you, I think that if things 1104 00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:26,920 Speaker 2: would have went differently with that episode that answer Rydana 1105 00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 2: put out, I think that would have been a great 1106 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:31,040 Speaker 2: opportunity to bring those groups of people to the show 1107 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 2: to expose and educate to his audience about things that 1108 00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:38,040 Speaker 2: were going on during that time. But what do I know. 1109 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 2: I agree with you, And I also to the point 1110 00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 2: that I made earlier on the spectrum of things, I 1111 00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 2: would typically be the person that would more so listen 1112 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 2: to Native Lamb podcast, But because of how that played out, 1113 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 2: it honestly like pushed me towards listening to Joe's show 1114 00:54:57,880 --> 00:54:59,720 Speaker 2: way more. I still have never listened to an episode 1115 00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:03,000 Speaker 2: Native land because I was like this this it just 1116 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,160 Speaker 2: felt like like y'all are moving funny and y'all are 1117 00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 2: making fun of people right from like this lofty position, 1118 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 2: and I don't like that ship right, So now you 1119 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:12,799 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, Like I don't know, there's something 1120 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:15,280 Speaker 2: about Joe Bunnen's podcast that is now more down to earth, 1121 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 2: It's more relatable.
