In the last few months, listeners and podcasters alike have been given a rare glimpse into the business side of big-time podcasters.
Between Joe Rogan taking a $100-million dollar licensing deal in his Spotify move to Joe Budden documenting his divorce from the same platform, we're finally starting to learn some concrete methods on how the biggest creators in the game are treating contracts, ads, and expectations. Add on the drama behind 'Call Her Daddy' and the hosts' battle for IP and we have a good look into where podcasters of all levels should place value.
In this show, I'm joined by Badr Milligan of The Shortbox Podcast and Al Pete of Mister Peterson's Neighborhood to discuss our takeaways from the listener's perspective as well as what lessons we'll use for our own shows moving forward.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
