  • What Reinventing Your Podcast Really Looks Like

    What makes a podcaster rethink everything instead of walking away? Today, we sit down with co-host Sid Meadows, creator of The Trend Report, to unpack why he nearly ended his podcast and what led him to rebuild it instead. Sid opens up about the burnout that caused him to podfade, the breakthrough moment that brought him back, and the intentional steps behind his relaunch: listener interviews, new sponsorship plans, and a renewed sense of purpose. We also explore how to balance instinct with audience feedback and why clarity in branding and naming matters. To close out the show, we share some of our personal wins from the week and offer a reminder that any podcast can be reimagined with the right mindset and a willingness to reinvent.

  • 388 - AI Slop, Adobe’s Big Win, Why Hosts Matter Most, & More Podcast Headlines

    The research is clear: 80% of listeners tune in mainly for the host, not the format, not the gear, but the person behind the mic. Today, we continue our podcasting news conversation with fresh headlines and honest discussion about what really keeps audiences listening. We discuss Adobe’s AI-powered speech tool, making TIME’s Best Inventions of 2025 list, sparking debate about how creators understand and utilize AI. The crew also weighs in on Auphonic, sharing their own experiences, frustrations, and thoughts on whether these tools support or stifle authenticity. From there, we unpack what this new research means for creators and why personality, connection, and consistency matter more than any algorithm.

  • 387 - Podcasts on Netflix, Patreon’s Huge Payout, & New Listening Habits Revealed

    Imagine opening Netflix and seeing your favorite podcasts right next to your favorite TV shows. That’s the future Spotify and Netflix are building together, and it’s one of several hot headlines we’re jumping into today. We also look at new research from Edison showing when listeners actually hit play, Patreon's jaw-dropping $10 billion milestone that proves creators are cashing in, and how the hit kids’ podcast Brains On took back control from corporate hands. Add in a few fresh updates from around the creator world, and you’ve got one question left to ask…are podcasts becoming as standard as the new streaming shows?

  • 386 - Podcast Tools We Love: AI and Beyond

    Every podcaster’s got their go-to gear, but which tools actually make a difference? Today, we put our favorites on the table, one powered by AI and one that’s not considered AI or perhaps falls in a gray area. We discuss tools ranging from  ChatGPT to Audacity and a few surprises in between, and the crew debates what’s worth keeping in your toolkit. We also talk about community platforms like Kajabi and Go High Level, and ask the big question: are any tools non-AI anymore? The week wraps with wins that prove progress isn’t about having every gadget, it’s about how you use what you’ve got.

  • 385 -Why Your Guest Outreach Is Getting Ignored

    You finally land the perfect guest for your show… only to be met with silence. No reply. No booking. Nothing. Today’s episode digs into why your outreach might be falling flat and what you can do differently to actually get a “yes.” The crew reacts to a viral clip from Dare to Self-Care about guesting and ghosting and whether small podcasters really do ask too much from potential guests. We discuss the balance of power between hosts and guests, how to set fair expectations, and why curating a great guest experience matters more than fancy outreach. Sometimes, the best pitch isn’t about convincing, it’s about connecting.

  • 382 - How to Recover When Meta Shuts You Down

    What would you do if you were suddenly banned from Facebook? Would you fight to get your account back or start fresh? Today’s topic was inspired by cohost Rich Perry, whose 16-year account vanished overnight, and by Dopey Podcast, which was just kicked off Facebook again after recently regaining access. We dig into what creators can do when platforms pull the plug, how to recover, rebuild, and protect your work before it happens. At the end of the show, we open the mailbag to answer a listener's question about the challenges of going solo and finding your groove behind the mic.

  • 381 - Is Gary Vee Right About Podcasting’s Future?

    Gary Vee makes a bold claim about the future of podcasting. On Jamie Kern Lima’s show, he predicted that creators will soon build AI co-hosts that could become bigger and more influential than the hosts themselves. We explore what that vision could mean for podcasters, starting with the opportunities it presents, as well as the ethical concerns surrounding trust and control. We touch on creativity, responsibility, and the role of real human connection. And since it’s Friday, we wrap up by sharing our wins of the week that remind us why we keep showing up.
