You first thing you're thinking is 219 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 2: I'm gonna punch him back. But if a stranger came 220 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 2: in and hugged you, your first thought is not to 221 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 2: return that that love because we're like, what is this, what's. 222 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 3: Happening right now?

Vape juice 1313 01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 2: mods were either sold in the underground market other country, 1314 01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:22,720 Speaker 2: or the mod was tweaked beyond the manufacturers recommendations. Big 1315 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 2: tobacco was not on the ground floor of vaping.

I'm with you, Obama. 1669 01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:55,840 Speaker 2: So I feel like that's what he was like, that's 1670 01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:58,680 Speaker 2: what he has to do because he can't handle the 1671 01:16:58,720 --> 01:17:01,200 Speaker 2: critiques of the policies that way that Obama could like, 1672 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:03,960 Speaker 2: Obama is such a policy wonk, and he's. 1673 01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:07,680 Speaker 3: So smart, and he's so he didn't go up there 1674 01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:08,400 Speaker 3: just blind. 1675 01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:10,599 Speaker 2: And see, that's one of the problems with a lot 1676 01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:13,240 Speaker 2: of the critiques of Obama is that they have to 1677 01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:17,880 Speaker 2: straw man him into a guy who just didn't think 1678 01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:18,479 Speaker 2: of it enough. 1679 01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:21,839 Speaker 3: And it's like, no, he's uber thoughtful. 1680 01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 2: So if anything, whatever solution he came up with, he 1681 01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:29,200 Speaker 2: definitely thought it out. These aren't Trump decisions with snap judges.

I tweeted this already, but 1808 01:23:08,280 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 2: I totally credit y'all for a wonderful evening I had 1809 01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:12,680 Speaker 2: when BOSSI came to Atlanta. She was one of my 1810 01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:15,000 Speaker 2: first follows on Twitter, but when I changed the council, 1811 01:23:15,040 --> 01:23:17,320 Speaker 2: I initially didn't follow her. Then came this too much 1812 01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:19,760 Speaker 2: and I was reunited with her wonderful voice. When her 1813 01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:22,360 Speaker 2: book was delivered, I wasn't expecting it. I got home 1814 01:23:22,439 --> 01:23:25,880 Speaker 2: thinking what did I order from Amazon this time? This 1815 01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:28,200 Speaker 2: was during my rough pat so I didn't even attempt 1816 01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:30,320 Speaker 2: to start reading it when she came here. I was 1817 01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:32,920 Speaker 2: definitely ready to receive the conversation start reading the book. 1818 01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:35,240 Speaker 2: It's funny because I was planning to sit back, sitting 1819 01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:36,760 Speaker 2: in the back because I knew I was going to 1820 01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 2: cry and for no other reason that I was so 1821 01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:40,880 Speaker 2: happy for her, but I got there so early it 1822 01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:42,080 Speaker 2: would have looked silly. 1823 01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:43,080 Speaker 3: For me not to be in the front. 1824 01:23:43,600 --> 01:23:46,000 Speaker 2: Then I remember her tweet about that white woman telling 1825 01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:47,679 Speaker 2: her she couldn't relate to the book. So I annoyed 1826 01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:52,960 Speaker 2: myself the white woman watcher. Yes, protect her at all calls. 1827 01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:56,080 Speaker 2: We gotta protect BOSSI come on. At first there were none, 1828 01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 2: but after the conversation started, if you walked in and 1829 01:23:58,120 --> 01:23:59,680 Speaker 2: I was checking them all out to make sure they 1830 01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:03,600 Speaker 2: didn't walk in late looking privileged. I initially planned to 1831 01:24:03,640 --> 01:24:06,280 Speaker 2: hang around after I got a chance to talk to her, 1832 01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:08,240 Speaker 2: but the hug she gave me, I had to go 1833 01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:10,639 Speaker 2: cry in the car Lol. Not sad tears. I cry 1834 01:24:11,240 --> 01:24:15,160 Speaker 2: just about any strong emotion I feel.

Then they wonder why people won't pay 2497 01:54:58,880 --> 01:55:00,200 Speaker 15: for it because it's not the qualit. 2498 01:55:00,480 --> 01:55:04,640 Speaker 2: Novelty wears off might be quick, right, If you're not 2499 01:55:04,720 --> 01:55:08,680 Speaker 2: having fun at the baseline of it, then it becomes 2500 01:55:08,760 --> 01:55:09,760 Speaker 2: work so much faster. 2501 01:55:10,560 --> 01:55:14,280 Speaker 11: So Andy would tell us quickly what your the percentage 2502 01:55:14,280 --> 01:55:16,040 Speaker 11: of people you work with, how many em are monetizing, 2503 01:55:16,240 --> 01:55:17,600 Speaker 11: how many of them it is just a hobby. 2504 01:55:17,880 --> 01:55:18,840 Speaker 5: And then we'll pivot. 2505 01:55:18,600 --> 01:55:21,240 Speaker 11: Into my second question, which is, like, in all of 2506 01:55:21,320 --> 01:55:24,320 Speaker 11: the work you've done around podcasting, what's been like the 2507 01:55:24,400 --> 01:55:27,640 Speaker 11: oh shit moment where you had somebody you never thought 2508 01:55:27,640 --> 01:55:29,920 Speaker 11: you'd be interviewing, or someplace you never thought you'd have 2509 01:55:29,960 --> 01:55:32,800 Speaker 11: been on stage, or something you've never thought would would 2510 01:55:32,880 --> 01:55:36,680 Speaker 11: necessarily come across your desk in life, and it did 2511 01:55:36,760 --> 01:55:38,200 Speaker 11: because of your podcast, all. 2512 01:55:38,160 --> 01:55:40,400 Speaker 10: Right, the ones you work with, Well, well, hold on 2513 01:55:40,480 --> 01:55:42,600 Speaker 10: to that question because there's two different questions there, and 2514 01:55:42,760 --> 01:55:45,520 Speaker 10: we're gonna we're gonna attach attacking one one at a 2515 01:55:45,640 --> 01:55:48,040 Speaker 10: time here. So, first of all on the monetization thing, 2516 01:55:48,080 --> 01:55:50,840 Speaker 10: I do want to, uh, just bring a little bit. 2517 01:55:50,760 --> 01:55:53,240 Speaker 4: Of a different look at that angle of things. 2518 01:55:54,080 --> 01:55:56,840 Speaker 10: So again, I work with different clients who a lot 2519 01:55:56,880 --> 01:55:59,680 Speaker 10: of the times of nonprofits, big organizations. 2520 01:55:59,080 --> 01:56:02,040 Speaker 4: They're trying to use podcas asking its content marketing. So 2521 01:56:02,400 --> 01:56:05,320 Speaker 4: they're not trying to monetize the podcast itself. 2522 01:56:06,000 --> 01:56:09,040 Speaker 10: They're rather using the podcast to drive business towards their 2523 01:56:09,560 --> 01:56:12,640 Speaker 10: main goals of whatever it is that they may be doing. 2524 01:56:13,160 --> 01:56:15,320 Speaker 10: So they're not trying to make money off the podcast 2525 01:56:15,400 --> 01:56:19,040 Speaker 10: itself by selling direct sponsorship on the podcast itself. They're 2526 01:56:19,120 --> 01:56:23,600 Speaker 10: using podcasts the same way you would social media, TV advertisements, 2527 01:56:23,640 --> 01:56:27,800 Speaker 10: billboard advertisements as another arm of your marketing wing, so 2528 01:56:27,960 --> 01:56:31,320 Speaker 10: that it can bring you more business, it can better 2529 01:56:31,560 --> 01:56:33,840 Speaker 10: give you a relationship with the clients that you do have, 2530 01:56:34,400 --> 01:56:37,040 Speaker 10: and really set yourself apart from all your different competitors. 2531 01:56:37,400 --> 01:56:39,840 Speaker 4: So on that side of things, it's a little bit different. 2532 01:56:40,280 --> 01:56:43,840 Speaker 10: But for people, the individual, average individual who wants to 2533 01:56:43,880 --> 01:56:46,040 Speaker 10: start a podcast and wants to try and make some 2534 01:56:46,160 --> 01:56:47,800 Speaker 10: money off of it, I got to echo, you know 2535 01:56:47,840 --> 01:56:49,720 Speaker 10: pretty much what everyone else said is this is that 2536 01:56:49,840 --> 01:56:53,560 Speaker 10: it's extremely hard to monetize a podcast by yourself. You 2537 01:56:53,640 --> 01:56:56,440 Speaker 10: can definitely do it, but you know, replacing a fort 2538 01:56:57,000 --> 01:56:59,520 Speaker 10: fifty thousand dollars a year job with a podcast is 2539 01:56:59,560 --> 01:57:03,600 Speaker 10: incredible difficult. I would recommend people don't approach podcasting in 2540 01:57:03,680 --> 01:57:05,240 Speaker 10: that way because it's so difficult. 2541 01:57:05,680 --> 01:57:07,720 Speaker 4: If monetizing your podcast. 2542 01:57:07,400 --> 01:57:09,680 Speaker 10: At all is on your mind, I would suggest looking 2543 01:57:09,720 --> 01:57:11,320 Speaker 10: at it at a different angle. And I'm gonna use 2544 01:57:11,360 --> 01:57:13,000 Speaker 10: a story, a real quick story here to kind of 2545 01:57:13,240 --> 01:57:15,560 Speaker 10: describe what I'm talking about. So one of my favorite 2546 01:57:15,600 --> 01:57:18,160 Speaker 10: podcasts out there right now is called Dissect. 2547 01:57:18,200 --> 01:57:19,000 Speaker 4: Has anyone heard of it? 2548 01:57:19,720 --> 01:57:19,960 Speaker 3: Yes? 2549 01:57:20,280 --> 01:57:22,320 Speaker 4: The only person I've ever heard whenever I say that. 2550 01:57:22,920 --> 01:57:25,520 Speaker 4: So Dissect is one of the most popular podcasts out there. 2551 01:57:25,560 --> 01:57:27,320 Speaker 4: It's been in the New York Times, and it's been 2552 01:57:27,560 --> 01:57:28,760 Speaker 4: in the US News and World Report. 2553 01:57:28,840 --> 01:57:30,240 Speaker 10: Yeah, I still don't have a whole lot of people 2554 01:57:30,240 --> 01:57:32,800 Speaker 10: who've known it. Anyway, It's a podcast where this guy 2555 01:57:32,920 --> 01:57:36,480 Speaker 10: just he breaks down full albums. He dedicates an entire 2556 01:57:36,560 --> 01:57:38,640 Speaker 10: season to break him down an album. Each episode in. 2557 01:57:38,720 --> 01:57:41,120 Speaker 4: That season is looking at one song. 2558 01:57:41,240 --> 01:57:44,120 Speaker 10: But this is really granular level stuff like beat by beat, 2559 01:57:44,200 --> 01:57:46,720 Speaker 10: lyric by the lyrics, sample by sample. For music nerds 2560 01:57:46,760 --> 01:57:48,960 Speaker 10: like me, it's great. So anyway, the guy who is 2561 01:57:49,000 --> 01:57:52,240 Speaker 10: making this podcast. Just a regular guy in his mid thirties. 2562 01:57:52,320 --> 01:57:55,280 Speaker 10: His name's Cole Kushner, lives in Sacramento, California, had a 2563 01:57:55,320 --> 01:57:57,920 Speaker 10: full time job, had a wife, had kids, and really 2564 01:57:58,000 --> 01:58:00,320 Speaker 10: only published the podcast, worked on the podcast when they 2565 01:58:00,360 --> 01:58:04,120 Speaker 10: went to bed. So he did this podcast for one season. 2566 01:58:04,200 --> 01:58:07,800 Speaker 10: His first season was on Kendrick Lamarsk The Butterfly, so 2567 01:58:08,080 --> 01:58:10,960 Speaker 10: great album but also a really great podcast which just 2568 01:58:11,080 --> 01:58:13,080 Speaker 10: dives so deep into the music and tells you so 2569 01:58:13,240 --> 01:58:15,560 Speaker 10: much about what the artist was thinking about what the 2570 01:58:15,640 --> 01:58:19,040 Speaker 10: music means. Just anytime you listen to any of the episodes, 2571 01:58:19,080 --> 01:58:20,720 Speaker 10: you can tell that there's just a high level of 2572 01:58:20,720 --> 01:58:21,880 Speaker 10: attention to detail. 2573 01:58:21,600 --> 01:58:22,080 Speaker 4: Paid to them. 2574 01:58:22,640 --> 01:58:24,640 Speaker 10: So he did such a good job with the podcast. 2575 01:58:24,720 --> 01:58:27,080 Speaker 10: Created good content. That was the number one thing, created 2576 01:58:27,160 --> 01:58:29,880 Speaker 10: good content. Second thing is that he engaged with his 2577 01:58:29,960 --> 01:58:33,240 Speaker 10: audiences online on Instagram and Twitter at Dissect podcast. 2578 01:58:33,360 --> 01:58:36,400 Speaker 4: It's a great follow but he built a real. 2579 01:58:36,400 --> 01:58:40,880 Speaker 10: Organic following just by making great content and hustle and 2580 01:58:40,920 --> 01:58:43,080 Speaker 10: iikel to put it out there. So midway through his 2581 01:58:43,200 --> 01:58:47,360 Speaker 10: second season, his second season was on Kanye westrom a beautiful, dark, 2582 01:58:47,400 --> 01:58:50,760 Speaker 10: twisted fantasy. Midway through that season, Spotify reached out to him. 2583 01:58:51,040 --> 01:58:55,040 Speaker 10: Spotify found him because he was creating such a buzz organically, 2584 01:58:55,280 --> 01:58:57,200 Speaker 10: Spotify reached out to him and signed him to a 2585 01:58:57,240 --> 01:59:00,840 Speaker 10: long term deal so that he could produce Discect full 2586 01:59:00,960 --> 01:59:04,480 Speaker 10: time exclusively for Spotify Studios. 2587 01:59:05,840 --> 01:59:08,120 Speaker 4: On a salary. Now, how much is that salary? Is 2588 01:59:08,120 --> 01:59:11,120 Speaker 4: a fifty one hundred and fifty thousand, I have no idea, 2589 01:59:11,320 --> 01:59:12,400 Speaker 4: but I do know it's enough. 2590 01:59:12,320 --> 01:59:17,320 Speaker 10: To support a family of three in northern California, which 2591 01:59:17,360 --> 01:59:22,200 Speaker 10: I'm sure is not inexpensive. So that is a different 2592 01:59:22,240 --> 01:59:24,720 Speaker 10: way of kind of looking at how you're monetizing your podcast, 2593 01:59:25,120 --> 01:59:27,240 Speaker 10: and honestly, it speaks to the way the industry is 2594 01:59:27,360 --> 01:59:27,720 Speaker 10: right now. 2595 01:59:28,080 --> 01:59:30,800 Speaker 4: The industry, whether it's podcasting or whether it's. 2596 01:59:30,760 --> 01:59:33,680 Speaker 10: Video, is all looking for the same thing, and that's 2597 01:59:33,760 --> 01:59:36,160 Speaker 10: owning the rights to good original content. 2598 01:59:36,400 --> 01:59:38,280 Speaker 4: I'll use Netflix as an example. If you get on 2599 01:59:38,360 --> 01:59:39,920 Speaker 4: Netflix and you stream Breaking. 2600 01:59:39,680 --> 01:59:42,680 Speaker 10: Bad, Netflix doesn't get a whole big chunk of that 2601 01:59:42,840 --> 01:59:46,880 Speaker 10: revenue check because AMC owns the rights to Breaking Bad, right, 2602 01:59:46,960 --> 01:59:48,320 Speaker 10: so they get most of the revenue check. 2603 01:59:48,600 --> 01:59:50,640 Speaker 4: But if you stream Stranger. 2604 01:59:50,240 --> 01:59:54,320 Speaker 10: Things on Netflix, ah, Netflix owns Stranger Things, the rights 2605 01:59:54,360 --> 01:59:56,760 Speaker 10: to that, so they get the entirety of that revenue check. 2606 01:59:57,240 --> 01:59:59,560 Speaker 4: Same thing with Spotify, same thing with Luminary. 2607 02:00:00,040 --> 02:00:03,880 Speaker 10: All looking for original content like Dissect that they can 2608 02:00:03,960 --> 02:00:07,400 Speaker 10: make their own, make exclusive and put behind their pay walls, 2609 02:00:07,640 --> 02:00:10,360 Speaker 10: so that if you want Game of Thrones, or if 2610 02:00:10,360 --> 02:00:15,080 Speaker 10: you want Break from Bad or if you want Dissect podcasts. 2611 02:00:14,600 --> 02:00:16,720 Speaker 4: Bad enough, you have to go to that source to 2612 02:00:16,760 --> 02:00:17,000 Speaker 4: get it. 2613 02:00:17,360 --> 02:00:20,120 Speaker 10: So that's what's driving a lot of media acquisitions in 2614 02:00:20,240 --> 02:00:22,920 Speaker 10: terms of original content in our industry, and you can 2615 02:00:22,960 --> 02:00:25,120 Speaker 10: see it in podcasting all over the place.

There's a lot of 2851 02:11:04,520 --> 02:11:07,440 Speaker 2: black people, but someone in Wisconsin will write up show 2852 02:11:07,480 --> 02:11:09,640 Speaker 2: and be like, you guys, make me not feel crazy. 2853 02:11:09,880 --> 02:11:12,520 Speaker 2: I don't know any other black people out here, and 2854 02:11:12,560 --> 02:11:13,720 Speaker 2: I was starting to lose my mind. 2855 02:11:13,800 --> 02:11:15,520 Speaker 3: So we so we have that type of thing. 2856 02:11:15,600 --> 02:11:18,840 Speaker 2: So feel the lane that's not feeled and make the 2857 02:11:18,920 --> 02:11:21,080 Speaker 2: show you wanna make that you're having fun making. 2858 02:11:21,600 --> 02:11:23,040 Speaker 3: Don't just try to imitate or. 2859 02:11:23,040 --> 02:11:25,040 Speaker 2: Look at other people, because you will drive yourself crazy 2860 02:11:25,320 --> 02:11:27,160 Speaker 2: if you don't have that success right out the game. 2861 02:11:27,440 --> 02:11:29,440 Speaker 11: It is interesting that you said about the amount of content, 2862 02:11:29,520 --> 02:11:32,160 Speaker 11: because you said that much y'all do It does sound crazy, 2863 02:11:32,200 --> 02:11:34,600 Speaker 11: but then no one thinks anything of a three hour 2864 02:11:34,760 --> 02:11:37,160 Speaker 11: drivetime show every day of every day with. 2865 02:11:39,240 --> 02:11:42,360 Speaker 3: Commercials and playing music like you like people tune into 2866 02:11:42,960 --> 02:11:43,720 Speaker 3: this is no shade, but. 2867 02:11:43,720 --> 02:11:47,440 Speaker 2: People in like s this Steve Harvey show. You're getting 2868 02:11:47,520 --> 02:11:51,120 Speaker 2: about maybe thirty minutes of actual talking. Then it's just 2869 02:11:51,320 --> 02:11:55,000 Speaker 2: play a song, do a do the news, play another song, 2870 02:11:55,880 --> 02:11:58,120 Speaker 2: do a bit. Okay, we'll talk about this topic for 2871 02:11:58,280 --> 02:12:01,280 Speaker 2: three seconds, and then there's no way to break out 2872 02:12:01,280 --> 02:12:03,200 Speaker 2: the nuances of the picture of. 2873 02:12:03,320 --> 02:12:06,560 Speaker 3: Trump in three seconds. So I like, someone somewhere is 2874 02:12:06,600 --> 02:12:08,720 Speaker 3: like I wanted to know about that, right When with 2875 02:12:08,840 --> 02:12:10,400 Speaker 3: a podcast, you have a obtended. 2876 02:12:10,000 --> 02:12:12,400 Speaker 2: To make the thing, have a full conversation you wanna have, 2877 02:12:12,520 --> 02:12:16,120 Speaker 2: and then move on. So make that or whatever it is, Like, 2878 02:12:16,200 --> 02:12:18,120 Speaker 2: if it's about foods, you know, make the food show 2879 02:12:18,120 --> 02:12:20,360 Speaker 2: you that's not there that you wanted to hear. 2880 02:12:21,480 --> 02:12:23,800 Speaker 15: For me, I would go think outside of the box 2881 02:12:24,400 --> 02:12:28,360 Speaker 15: because we have been taught traditionally everything's follows radio and 2882 02:12:28,440 --> 02:12:31,680 Speaker 15: everything follows TV. When it comes to podcasting, it is 2883 02:12:31,720 --> 02:12:33,760 Speaker 15: a blank slate. I think people have a tendency to 2884 02:12:33,760 --> 02:12:37,200 Speaker 15: forget that it's literally a canvas that you can paint 2885 02:12:37,320 --> 02:12:40,640 Speaker 15: whatever color you want to. A lot of times people 2886 02:12:40,760 --> 02:12:43,640 Speaker 15: limit themselves because they go, well, they gotta be thirty minutes, 2887 02:12:43,720 --> 02:12:45,000 Speaker 15: or it has to be an hour, or I have 2888 02:12:45,080 --> 02:12:46,960 Speaker 15: to play music, or I have to have a co hoste, 2889 02:12:47,000 --> 02:12:50,760 Speaker 15: like like, they put these these stipulations on what they 2890 02:12:50,920 --> 02:12:54,600 Speaker 15: think it should be, limicking something else instead of. 2891 02:12:54,640 --> 02:12:57,200 Speaker 3: Going, it's a blank slate, what color do I want 2892 02:12:57,240 --> 02:12:57,640 Speaker 3: to paint this? 2893 02:12:57,960 --> 02:13:00,440 Speaker 15: And painted that color and just be happy with that 2894 02:13:00,720 --> 02:13:03,640 Speaker 15: and guess what, somebody's gonna like that blue you smacked. 2895 02:13:03,320 --> 02:13:05,160 Speaker 3: Up there and they gonna say, who I like that? 2896 02:13:05,280 --> 02:13:06,760 Speaker 3: And this thing. You know, you got a listener and 2897 02:13:06,800 --> 02:13:08,320 Speaker 3: somebody said, oh you like this blue. I like this 2898 02:13:08,440 --> 02:13:08,880 Speaker 3: blue too. 2899 02:13:09,200 --> 02:13:12,200 Speaker 15: So think outside the box. Remember there's no change on you. 2900 02:13:12,600 --> 02:13:14,760 Speaker 15: You can literally do whatever you want to do. Because 2901 02:13:14,800 --> 02:13:16,960 Speaker 15: people tell us a lot of times we've been to 2902 02:13:17,040 --> 02:13:19,560 Speaker 15: other things where they do this and everybody says we 2903 02:13:19,680 --> 02:13:21,040 Speaker 15: have to be thirty minutes, it has to be this. 2904 02:13:21,480 --> 02:13:22,520 Speaker 3: We break all those things. 2905 02:13:22,560 --> 02:13:24,000 Speaker 15: You know how many people tell us Sometimes we will 2906 02:13:24,000 --> 02:13:25,800 Speaker 15: mess around and have a three hour show and people 2907 02:13:25,840 --> 02:13:27,560 Speaker 15: will tell us, I'm glad you got a three hour show. 2908 02:13:27,640 --> 02:13:29,840 Speaker 15: This is my whole commute to work, so you know, 2909 02:13:31,000 --> 02:13:32,400 Speaker 15: everybody has different tastes. 2910 02:13:33,520 --> 02:13:36,520 Speaker 4: Really, I just want to emphasize, reemphasize what you just 2911 02:13:36,520 --> 02:13:38,440 Speaker 4: said there because I tell that to everybody. So many 2912 02:13:38,480 --> 02:13:40,600 Speaker 4: people I talk to in podcasting are like, can I 2913 02:13:40,680 --> 02:13:42,320 Speaker 4: do this? Am I allowed to do this? 2914 02:13:42,560 --> 02:13:43,200 Speaker 3: Right? Yes? What? 2915 02:13:43,760 --> 02:13:43,800 Speaker 4: No? 2916 02:13:44,240 --> 02:13:46,760 Speaker 10: Podcasting, you're your own editor, you're your own producer, you're 2917 02:13:46,760 --> 02:13:48,720 Speaker 10: your own writer. It's not about what you can or 2918 02:13:48,800 --> 02:13:51,160 Speaker 10: can't do, so you can do anything that you want. 2919 02:13:51,520 --> 02:13:54,840 Speaker 10: It's more about how well does this serve what I'm 2920 02:13:54,880 --> 02:13:57,200 Speaker 10: trying to do. And just like you said, you know, 2921 02:13:57,680 --> 02:13:59,440 Speaker 10: if Picasso wants to use that shade. 2922 02:13:59,200 --> 02:14:01,560 Speaker 4: Of blue, can tell me he's wrong because it's his 2923 02:14:01,640 --> 02:14:03,840 Speaker 4: own pain. Same thing with you and your podcast. But 2924 02:14:03,960 --> 02:14:05,720 Speaker 4: the thing that I wanted to just throw out there 2925 02:14:05,800 --> 02:14:10,640 Speaker 4: for everybody just to kind of remember, is that is 2926 02:14:10,880 --> 02:14:15,600 Speaker 4: uh now I just lost it.

And I see this all the time. 2936 02:14:28,680 --> 02:14:32,520 Speaker 10: People want to make their podcast perfect before they even 2937 02:14:32,640 --> 02:14:36,120 Speaker 10: hit record. Like somebody wants to have the exact right 2938 02:14:36,240 --> 02:14:38,480 Speaker 10: music and the exact right script, and the exact right 2939 02:14:38,560 --> 02:14:40,840 Speaker 10: this and the exactly before they even hit record. 2940 02:14:41,040 --> 02:14:42,920 Speaker 4: And by the time they're ready to get hit record, 2941 02:14:43,160 --> 02:14:45,240 Speaker 4: they've stressed themselves out so much about. 2942 02:14:45,040 --> 02:14:47,240 Speaker 10: These details that don't end up mattering that they don't 2943 02:14:47,240 --> 02:14:48,960 Speaker 10: even get to it, and they kill their own project 2944 02:14:49,000 --> 02:14:49,920 Speaker 10: before it even starts. 2945 02:14:50,240 --> 02:14:51,800 Speaker 4: So don't let perfect. 2946 02:14:51,800 --> 02:14:55,120 Speaker 10: Become the enemy of I don't know what's the saying good, Yeah, 2947 02:14:55,160 --> 02:15:00,520 Speaker 10: something like that exactly.

I mean, when we started 2959 02:15:26,720 --> 02:15:28,720 Speaker 11: our idea to q SEE, we thought it'd be one 2960 02:15:28,800 --> 02:15:31,280 Speaker 11: hundred and two hundred people that might care about a 2961 02:15:31,440 --> 02:15:35,480 Speaker 11: city government a Charlotte City government podcast, and we just 2962 02:15:35,520 --> 02:15:37,840 Speaker 11: thought it did a full way to kind of think 2963 02:15:37,920 --> 02:15:39,560 Speaker 11: through a lot of the stuff we were going through 2964 02:15:39,640 --> 02:15:44,160 Speaker 11: as both first earned council members and kind of archive 2965 02:15:44,320 --> 02:15:47,800 Speaker 11: our experience as first term counsel members.

But I think the key is that 2969 02:15:55,400 --> 02:15:57,680 Speaker 5: you're doing something that you're passionate about it, you're doing. 2970 02:15:57,560 --> 02:15:59,920 Speaker 11: Something you like to talk about, and you're being authentic 2971 02:16:00,120 --> 02:16:02,320 Speaker 11: who you are.

Most of the time, it's kind of like, 3166 02:25:12,520 --> 02:25:15,440 Speaker 2: we want to use the fact that you've already done 3167 02:25:15,520 --> 02:25:18,200 Speaker 2: this work to then put your name on our thing. 3168 02:25:18,320 --> 02:25:21,800 Speaker 2: I was talking to an advertising company yesterday, and. 3169 02:25:22,959 --> 02:25:25,040 Speaker 3: First of all, we were supposed to have a call 3170 02:25:25,160 --> 02:25:28,360 Speaker 3: the day before, and the guy missed the call already 3171 02:25:28,440 --> 02:25:28,960 Speaker 3: read flag. 3172 02:25:29,240 --> 02:25:32,040 Speaker 2: And then the second day when I was talking to him, 3173 02:25:32,040 --> 02:25:33,480 Speaker 2: you ain't see it to know that much about our show, 3174 02:25:33,520 --> 02:25:36,240 Speaker 2: I was like, oh god, one of these. But his 3175 02:25:36,360 --> 02:25:38,560 Speaker 2: whole thing was like he basically wants to put our 3176 02:25:38,640 --> 02:25:41,320 Speaker 2: name on a website to say look at these podcasts. 3177 02:25:42,240 --> 02:25:44,560 Speaker 3: And it's like that doesn't do anything for me. Now, 3178 02:25:44,600 --> 02:25:46,600 Speaker 3: it doesn't hurt me either, Like if he. 3179 02:25:46,600 --> 02:25:48,240 Speaker 2: Wants to go out and try to get advertiser on 3180 02:25:48,280 --> 02:25:51,240 Speaker 2: our behalf using our name, that's fine, but I'm not 3181 02:25:51,480 --> 02:25:53,920 Speaker 2: counting on that. So for me, I think the reason 3182 02:25:53,920 --> 02:25:55,320 Speaker 2: we have a joint of the network and stuff is 3183 02:25:55,640 --> 02:25:57,280 Speaker 2: none of the offers have been good enough to make 3184 02:25:57,360 --> 02:25:59,879 Speaker 2: us do it. But if somebody was throwing that kind 3185 02:25:59,879 --> 02:26:03,120 Speaker 2: of like real money at us. We do it like yeah, 3186 02:26:03,360 --> 02:26:05,200 Speaker 2: you know, and plus what we talk about is kind 3187 02:26:05,240 --> 02:26:07,800 Speaker 2: of controversial. We're talking about raids, we're talking about politics. 3188 02:26:07,840 --> 02:26:09,720 Speaker 2: We're talking to you like, we're not the show to 3189 02:26:09,959 --> 02:26:12,960 Speaker 2: just you know, for everyone, right, So since you we're 3190 02:26:12,959 --> 02:26:16,119 Speaker 2: willing to do that. Sometimes we're canceling out large swath 3191 02:26:16,200 --> 02:26:20,039 Speaker 2: of members that could uh possibly uh or large slot 3192 02:26:20,080 --> 02:26:22,039 Speaker 2: swats of listeners that might not wanna deal with it. 3193 02:26:22,120 --> 02:26:24,960 Speaker 5: So I we probing at times. Two more questions, uh. 3194 02:26:25,240 --> 02:26:27,080 Speaker 11: I've used a lot of video content to kind of 3195 02:26:27,120 --> 02:26:28,720 Speaker 11: promote the episodes, and it's. 3196 02:26:28,680 --> 02:26:30,279 Speaker 19: Usually what people engage with mostly. 3197 02:26:30,120 --> 02:26:33,040 Speaker 23: Anybody who wants answers and answers, so it usually gets 3198 02:26:33,040 --> 02:26:35,600 Speaker 23: a lot of uh fervor and buzz before releasing those 3199 02:26:35,600 --> 02:26:35,840 Speaker 23: where you. 3200 02:26:35,920 --> 02:26:37,560 Speaker 8: Get excited the interacted that. 3201 02:26:37,640 --> 02:26:40,360 Speaker 5: You're the bigges of Boss.
