Tuckered Out with Ami Thakkar

Pat Shah Talks Past, Present, Future of Audio


Listen Later

Pat Shah has had his ear pressed against the audio industry for awhile now.  He is the Head of Content Acquisition and Development for Audible, a  membership service that provides customers with the world's largest selection of audiobooks as well as podcasts, exclusive originals, and more.

We talk about how both of our dads would teach us math nightly using white boards,  how he initially thought about taking the doctor route but found out early that wasn't the right path for him, and how our parents dealt (or didn't deal) with dating and relationships growing up.

Pat talks about his remarkable career path- from Wall Street to his own start-up to working at Universal, Spotify, and Twitch-and his takeaways from each role,  his experience working side-by-side with Paul Allen, and why he currently has the best job in the world.

He tells me what he looks for in storytellers, why the past 3 years have been a watershed moment for the audio industry,  how he's excited about the future with NFT's, and we discuss who should be India's version of Joe Rogan (cough, cough).

Pat mentions that it is an exciting time for creators and to remember one thing during the journey- always chase the energy.
