#1421 Alex Blumberg, Startup Podcast, Gimlet, Chris Sacca

1 hour

At one point I snuck the keywords “Alex Blumberg” & “Startup Podcast” into the title tags of my interviews. I wanted people to find my podcast when they searched for Alex’s. The guy had a top business show, so I was trying to appeal to his audience.

It worked, but it’s not my proudest move. My contact at Apple asked me to cut it out. But look, now I interviewed him. So I naturally mentioned his company, Gimlet, and managed to talk about investor, Chris Sacca, so I earned the keywords!

Plus, I sincerely love this interview so much that I hope you listen to this.

Alex Blumberg is the founder of Gimlet, an award-winning podcast company which produces the podcast Startup.
