TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES: [00:27] Today’s Topic: How Much Work it Takes to Build a “Popular” Podcast [00:40] We have a decent-sized podcast, but we’re no Joe Rogan. [01:02] We are consistent. [01:05] It takes commitment. [01:35] Eric has really put effort into Growth Everywhere and he has grown it slowly. [02:20] It’s always a lot of work to create and publish the content. [03:01] If you already have an audience, it makes it easier to gain listeners. [03:50] It will take a lot of effort. If you don’t want to be consistent, don’t waste your time.
