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 – 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!FocusriteLINKS MENTIONED*FullCast Website *Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook GroupNick’s LinkedInNick’s WebsiteNick’s Podcast – Servant of Pod with Nick QuahHot Pod NewsletterPodcast MovementPodNewsPodfestPODCASTS MENTIONEDThe Partially Examined LifeBOOKS MENTIONEDHow To Change Your MindPew: A NovelFinite and Infinite Games🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by FullCast

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? Honestly, this is an amazing brand; it’s an iconic brand. And it’s a collection of really fine people. So culture has kept me here.” (44:14)“Bad leaders aren’t bad people.

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!FocusriteLINKS MENTIONED*FullCast Website *Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook GroupDave’s LinkedInDave’s WebsiteChartable WebsiteDave’s Twitter – @dzohrobPodcast MovementPodNewsPodfest🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by 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!FocusriteLINKS MENTIONED*FullCast Website *Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook GroupLiz’s LinkedInLiz’s WebsiteLiz’s YouTube ChannelLiz’s Instagram – @zenmoneycfoLiz’s Twitter – @zenmoneycfoLiz’s FacebookLiz’s PodcastLiz’s Books –From Zero to Zen & Zen Money MapPodcast MovementPodNewsPodfest🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by 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!FocusriteLINKS MENTIONED*FullCast Website *Podcast Junkies Junkies Facebook GroupBrenada’s LinkedInBrenda’s WebsiteBrenda’s Instagram – @brendasalinasbakerBrenda’s Twitter – @brendapsalinasBrenda’s FacebookGoogle Podcasts Creator ProgramGoogle News InitiativePodcast MovementPodNewsPodfest Global Summit Aug 10-17🎧Podcast Production & Marketing by FullCast

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, 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.

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!FocusriteLINKS MENTIONEDFullCast WebsiteFocusrite WebsitePodcast Junkies Junkies Facebook GroupPodcast MovementNoah’s LinkedInNoah’s WebsiteNoah’s Podcast

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.

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!Register to Win Focusrite’s Podcast Studio MakeoverLINKS MENTIONEDEpisode transcription on ThistenFullCast WebsiteFocusrite WebsitePodcast Junkies Junkies Facebook GroupDanielle’s LinkedInDanielle’s Podcast WebsiteDanielle’s WOC Podcasters WebsiteDanielle’s Twitter – @thethoughtcardDanielle’s Instagram – @thethoughtcardDanielle’s FacebookPodfestWhat is the One Thing You Wish You Had Known Before You Started Your Podcast?

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.

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 Scarlett 2i2Aweber - Hosts of the Beyond the Podcast SummitLINKS MENTIONEDScott’s WebsiteScott’s Instagram – @farfromhomepodcast Scott’s FacebookScott’s VimeoScott’s Twitter – @scottgurianScott’s Far From Home PodcastPodcast 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. I love it that much. I love the communication. Every interview is a dance. Every interview is also uncomfortable.

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.

You can send them to people.” (05:06) “What’s interesting about Breaker is that we see, from the first month to the second month of using Breaker, the number of shows that a user subscribes to doubles. So, it means that they’re discovering new content.” (16:07) “It’s kind of our goal, for this year, to better connect podcasters with their audience.” (18:04) “We want to make money when podcasters make money.” (28:47) “We originally pitched Breaker as Netflix for podcasts in that we’re gonna make exclusive content and charge for it. But we’re also, at the same time, letting some other companies sort of try that model first to see how that goes.” (29:24) “I’m really passionate about connecting people on the Internet so I’ve work a lot in blogging and social media.” (41:54) THANK YOU SPONSORS!
