Hi everybody, welcome back to the V3rN5 podcast. I'm Kate Kennedy, your host. It's been a

minute since we've had an under the influencer episode. Actually, there's another podcast

out now called under the influence, just to clarify, mine's under the influencer. And

it's just a series we've done for years now, but two different things. I've had some

DMs that people that were confused. It's really good though. So check it out. I haven't gotten

the chance to listen yet, but I love podcasts that aren't mine. Anyway, welcome back. But

yeah, it's a series I do on my podcast. I kind of in my head, unofficially split up episode

types in a few different ways. One being topical deep dives, the other being a snorkel,

through several topics, which obviously is the opposite of a deep dive where we go through

a bunch of different things. Crowd sourced episodes, like the recent ones with twinkle,

twinkle, soccer, all star and pussycat dull, which were two of the most popular episodes

I've ever had. I'm so glad you guys liked those. Those were really fun to record. It was

nice to just do something lighthearted for a minute. It's hard for me to know sometimes

what people are going to like or look for. But anyway, yeah. So the other type is Kate

Lila episodes where people call into the hotline 312 397 9676 and can ask questions or

for advice or fun pop culture stuff. And I call those Kate Lila after how much I love

to Lila on the radio. And then I have typically once a month or so, I'll have on a guest. Sometimes

it's a bonus episode. Sometimes it's about a topic. But whenever I get the opportunity

to interview an amazing influencer or micro influencer, I kind of put it in its own series

because I like to lift the hood, if you will, and talk about the business of influencing

with people of varying sizes in terms of following numbers wise, but with incredibly high

engagement. I think there's this really interesting world of influencers was under 100,000 followers.
