April 04, 2023#12 - Just Trying to Talent Stack
This week we are talking all about Just Trying to Talent Stack. This is part one of a two-part mini-series on talent stacking. We talk comedy and how you can multiply 1 day into 3. Listen to find out!

Talent Stacking was first coined by the creator of Dilbert, Scott Adams in his book, How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big.

Episode Outline:
Rik Roberts School of Laughs podcast

Leveraging the idea of a talent stack for your career, even in comedy

If you are mediocre at some things but you haven’t mastered anything, you can still win. You can put those mediocre things together and now you have a unique talent stack.

You can escape competition by creating a very specific niche.
