We need to differentiate between podcasting and storytelling. Podcasting and journalism. Podcasting and audio-only work. Invest in either, but it’s time to stop thinking Joe Rogan and I have the same job and valuing our output the same way.

I’ll say it again: I liked working with and getting to know M&H. It was brief, but they were welcoming and gracious. They had good ideas that they’d never be able to pursue, which is a bummer. Just my two pence!

@amil My ex once complained to me that I was too “hands off” as a mom and I reminded him that he was a touring comedian and was only ever home about two days a week and I was trying to encourage him to have a relationship with his kid. My bad!

On the Hollywood strikes: Ultra wealthy people often think money = talent and intelligence. If you’re not the richest or trying to become the richest, you’re an idiot. And you should pursue wealth by any means, except unionizing. That’s the viewpoint of many studio execs.

I get asked a lot if I’ve been sued by any MLMs and the answer is no. Not an email, no cease and desists. They know my research and show, but if they sued me they’d have to prove I’m saying anything untrue and go through the discovery process. They aren’t idiots.
