What happens when you stop trying to make a podcast about what’s wrong with the industry — and start making one about what comes next?
Megan and Amy get real about the future of Bridges Burned and why they’re moving away from heavy industry-burn stories toward something looser, funnier, and more sustainable.
After more than a year of hearing the stories behind the headlines, they unpack what it taught them about media — from the collapse of local radio and working for free to being overworked, underpaid, and somehow convinced that burnout was just part of the job.
The stories may be changing, but the honesty isn’t.
