Have You Already Missed the Podcasting Gold Rush?

Is it too late to start a podcast? Should we all just shut up and listen quietly, rather than launching something that isn’t great?

So, Ryan Holiday published a post, and it got a lot of attention. Ryan is excellent at getting attention, and he details some of his most effective techniques in his book, Trust Me, I’m Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator.

Ryan is undeniably smart. But I have some serious issues with his post.

In this 20-minute episode, I talk about:

• Whether it’s actually a bad idea to try something because “everyone is doing it”
• Why the search for an “original” format is highly overrated
• The problem with people who self-identify as hackers
• The two elements your podcast (or blog, or video series, or infographic content …) absolutely needs to succeed
• How to create a great book, blog, podcast, or other creative work in the real world
• Where extraordinary work comes from
