Hey there, welcome to The Fizzle Show.

I'm your host, Corbett Barr, and this is our show about earning a living independently doing something you love.

Today we're joined by John Lee Dumas, or JLD, as he's known.

John is host of Entrepreneurs on Fire, a Best of iTunes podcast, where John has interviewed over 2,000 amazing entrepreneurs, including

Tony Robbins, Seth Godin, Gary Vaynerchuk, Barbara Corcoran, Tim Ferriss, and many more.

The business behind entrepreneurs on fire has been a huge success as well, grossing over

$16 million in revenue since you launched the podcast way back in 2012. John, thank you so much

for being on the show today. Corbett, well, I'm fired to be here for a number of reasons because I've

been a Fizzle fan for years. I've been a Corbett Bar fan for even longer than that. I mean,

the first online course I ever bought was, you also remind me the name of it. It was like back in 2011. It was about blogging.

And I just, oh, it was great.

Yeah, that's our startup blog that matters course.

That was it.

And when it saw you speak a blog world, I remember I was a geek in the back that hadn't

even launched my podcast yet.

I was like, ooh, I have a question.

What do you think about podcasting? You're like, eh, I don't think it's going to develop in much. I'm like, I'm never going to launch my podcast now. Did I say that? No, you didn't. You didn't

actually say that. You said something like, I think podcasting is going to come. You're like,

I'll probably have to launch it at some point. And we did. We did shortly after you did, I guess. You started in 2012 with on September. 2012, yeah, like September. That's amazing. And I said at the opening that you're at 2000

episode, is that about right? 2316 as of today.

2316. It's crazy because in iTunes, people probably don't know this unless you're kind of a geek

about podcasting. But they only allow so many to show up in the feed.
