retweeting this because joel is a beast at this and way too humble about it. so good with that level tone, letting what& #39;s real jump out for itself. https://twitter.com/byjoelanderson/status/1384888859104735236">https://twitter.com/byjoeland...
speaking of joel, lemme say something about this right fast... https://twitter.com/cwmsiv/status/1384998546500427778">https://twitter.com/cwmsiv/st...
when the pandemic hit, obviously, our ability to book guests changed, too. so we leaned on my friends to come on. what we found was the audience for #TheRightTime would rather hear me chop it up with the homies than the famous people.
i really appreciate the homies for that, cuz i& #39;m not giving them any ability to prepare. we just gon go. and they go along with it with me, even on provocative topics. and #TheRightTime is much better for it. none of us know where it& #39;ll go, but we get there and don& #39;t get fired.
part of the initial plan with the guests was to use the celebrities to help attract new listeners. but i had to lean on something i once saw chuck d say about serving your audience: serve the audience you actually have, not the one you think you want.
i think his specific point was trying to serve those other folks was "corporate thinking." yes, i work for a corporation, but even then, you gotta think organically about how to grow a podcast.
i contend my friendship with spencer embodies what america is truly capable of. we have everything and nothing in common and it& #39;s truly beautiful. https://twitter.com/Paposaurus/status/1385001661886783488">https://twitter.com/Paposauru...
nothing attracts new fans like quality. i& #39;ll give you that one for free. https://twitter.com/ImDFC/status/1385003129255694339">https://twitter.com/ImDFC/sta...
now that& #39;s a different set of homies. i doubt i& #39;ll ever do talk radio again, but i& #39;ll never be able to explain why my shows attracted *the* most interesting callers. on a per capita basis, nobody was beating us on characters. https://twitter.com/builddensity/status/1385005213069692932">https://twitter.com/builddens...
