QUOTES

  • "I want to protect the integrity of what a podcast is, which is an audio piece of content uploaded to the Internet to be consumed auditorily." - Sebastian Rusk
  • “So you know that if they interact with you one time, we can retarget them and show them more of your content, and get them to your download again, or at least get it in front of them again, and stay top and center of mind with these people. Retention rates on the platforms. Again, it's, it's completely, you're completely. you know, subjected to the data that Apple and Spotify or wherever you host your podcasts give you." - Matt Shields
  • "Just stay consistent. Our biggest thing when people work with us is the education piece. We like to teach you or like to let you know what's going on. So that way, whether or not you work with us in the future or either that way, you won't get screwed over when inevitably you do go to hire an ad agency to get ads so you know what you're talking about." - Matt Shields

Are You A Charlotte?

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.
