Truth That Kills With Noah May: Podcasting, Journalism, & Literature
Send us a text
Today, I sit down with Noah May, the creator and host of the Lethal Venom podcast and a journalism graduate from Auburn University. He shares with us the origins behind Lethal Venom, including why he chose a name that embraces hard truths, how his struggles with depression and anxiety shaped his voice, and the practical skills from journalism—especially interviewing—that now power his podcast. We explore what it means to build community through honest conversations and why hearing other people’s stories can be therapeutic.
Together, we go over the reality of starting and sustaining a podcast. We talk equipment myths, launching with what you have, and why consistency beats perfection. We reference his recent Podcasting 101 conversation with Alex Sanfilippo of PodMatch, discuss industry stats, and highlight the reality that many creators quit early—not because it’s impossible, but because they focus on opinions over actionable feedback and lose momentum.
We widen the lens to the variety on Lethal Venom: from mental health topics like depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and addiction, to conversations with therapists, creators, filmmakers, and even paranormal investigators. Mr. May shares how interviews help him and his audience process difficult experiences, why he welcomes diverse viewpoints, and how he balances three shows while keeping his energy on what’s working.
