I’ve felt it myself—angry, hooked, and questioning who I can even trust. In this episode, I’m naming what rage bait is, why it works so well, and how to protect yourself when everything feels engineered to set you off.

I share my own experiences, the cultural shifts that...

When everyone has a mic, how the hell do you know who to trust? That's the question keeping me up at night as I watch the podcasting industry completely transform before our eyes.

I used to think that if I just flipped on the mic, brought on killer guests, and delivered great content, sponsors would be beating down my door and the money would just roll in. Spoiler alert: that's not how podcast monetization strategies actually work, and I learned this the hard way at a podcast conference that left me feeling like absolute sh...
